EVOLUTION

The ancient Greeks taught a rudimentary form of the theory of evolution. It was popularized in modern times by the publication of Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species (1859).

The evolutionary theory of the development of matter and biological life is a rationalistic philosophy that was invented as a substitute for the biblical account of human origins. The motive is an attempt to escape responsibility to the Creator. 

As a theory, evolution is bankrupt in terms of explaining: 

• The Universe: Matter is neither eternal nor self-created. Evolution cannot explain its existence. 
• Biological Life: The law of biogenesis demonstrates that life cannot create itself; evolution cannot explain life. 
• Design: Nature tends toward disorder; evolution cannot explain the exceptional orderly design in the Universe. 
• Origin of Species: Evolution cannot explain how a single-celled organism could produce the millions of complex creatures on Earthand other human traits. 
• Human Uniqueness: Evolution cannot explain how raw matter could produce human consciousness, communication, morality, and other human traits. 

The story of evolution is a work of fantasy for adults who long to be their "own god." See: CREATION.
