Foreword

 

It is difficult for people these days to believe what the Bible has to say about the Creation. They may deem this view wrong and old-fashioned, whilst the view of the universe and all living things coming into existence by accident seems more correct. Hence, they believe that the theory of evolution - in which everything is thought to have been born by itself - is correct. This view and theory trace back to Charles Darwin and the book The Origin of Species he published in 1859 and in which this issue is discussed.

  Is it possible, however, that there are faults and defects in this theory as well? Is it possible that it is not true, but false? The supporters of this doctrine certainly deny this possibility, but it should be noted that weak points and inconsistencies of the theory can be found even in their own writings. These have been discussed, but the possibility of the doctrine's whole foundation being wrong and untenable has never been brought out. It has generally been denied.

   In any case, the following examples from the very same book reflect the previous statement well (italics have been added for clarification). They show how Darwin's theory may be regarded as completely true, but elsewhere it is stated that it rests on an unstable foundation. These possible defects of the theory will be examined below:

 

Once you get rolling, the story of life becomes a logical, absolutely unavoidable chain of causes and consequences. Science can find out its links along with all the fascinating details, but how life started is still a huge mystery. There is no convincing explanation for it. The chemical components of living organisms and biochemical reactions that sustain life are known very accurately, but the final spark of life still remains unclear. Life: such a self-evident and simple phenomenon, yet so difficult to explain...

  There is no question that life came into existence from earthly material, and from the stars and universe. From the same materials that have circulated in timeless space over and over again. We are all basically star dust. Just as life evolved from one cell and became more and more complicated and endlessly varied, so there has also been evolution on earth. It has become denser from the dust cloud that was between the stars and cooled down almost four billion years ago into a compact ball, but to this day is subject to what its own internal heat has created.
