The purpose of the author is to inform us on the latest scientific research on evolutionism. He adduces many scientific discoveries and statements of prestigious scholars, some of them Nobel Prize winners, who put arguments against evolutionism. As a graduate of the Faculty of Mathematics at Bucharest University, Ioan Bute uses logical arguments, easy to grasp, which are meant to bring information right from within the “science consciousness laboratory ".
The book is aimed at a wide audience, ranging from high school students to graduates of any faculty. It is hoped to be useful for any reader who seeks to understand the underlying assumptions that support the theory of evolution, or for anyone who wants to marvel at the hidden intelligence in the structures of the universe.
From the table of contents:
The book brings testimonies and arguments to elucidate to what extent Darwin’s theory is still true today.
The evidence that positive science is expected to provide is either experimental or historical. Both kinds of evidence must then be interpreted according to a coherent rationale. The author argues that evolutionism has neither experimental nor historical evidence. Instead, it has logical errors. As convincing experimental evidence, Darwinism could have adduced the observation of the transformation of one species into another, or the observation of the emergence of life from inorganic matter. As historical evidence, one should expect remains of biological life, that is, fossils. Yet the findings of many scientists show that nature does not agree with the theory of evolution. The message the fossils suggest is that organisms have not evolved through a long evolution but appeared all of a sudden. Obviously, the abrupt emergence of organisms means creation. In fact, given the great wealth of discovered fossils, much more than in Darwin's time, the lack of intermediate fossils (of species) is more convincing than in his day. Today Darwinism can no longer use as excuse the scarcity of fossils that have been discovered. Also, the information necessary for the emergence and sustaining of life is enormously complex. In this respect too, evolutionism is not able to provide any adequate scientific response. Prof. Univ. Dr. Ing. Werner Gitt, Director of the National Institute of Physics and Engineering in Braunschweig (Germany), is specializing in computer science and information theory. He has shown that information cannot emerge by itself in matter: "We are not aware of any law of nature, process or sequence of events that may result in generating information". Organized and well-coordinated complex information, as found in living beings, cannot emerge by chance. In the light of scientific discoveries, conclusions about the" evidence "of evolution can be summarized as follows: There is no evidence of palaeontology. Palaeontologists say the fossil archive is complete and it does not fit the theory of evolution. The fossil record cannot be interpreted otherwise than by assuming that fossils appeared all of a sudden. "The appearance of sudden planting" is not the exception, but the rule in the fossil record. There is no direct evidence of evolution. No evolution of any single species has been observed in the laboratory either. There is no evidence of embryology. There is no genetic evidence of evolution. On the contrary, genetics is the most rigorous science in natural sciences, so that genetics is one of the most effective arguments against evolutionism. There is no evidence of "molecular evolution." Scientists admit they have no idea how life came about, and not even how it could have emerged. A simple calculation of probabilities shows that life is impossible to have happened by chance.
There is no evidence that natural selection can lead to the transformation of one species into another. There is no evidence that evolution has taken place. There is not even any evidence that evolution would be possible at all.
