ADNAN OKTAR: We call Darwinists to science. But Darwinists avoid science, do not employ it and have turned their backs on it. But we encourage them to use science. They avoid paleontology, for example. Paleontology is a science that demolishes Darwinism. There are 250 million fossils that all prove Creation. Now, if someone wishes to ignore these fossils and not examine them, saying, “I have no wish to see these,” then he is avoiding science. What does science say? It says, “A protein cannot come into existence by chance.” If someone avoids examining the structure of the protein molecule and is unwilling to investigate the probability of this coming into being at once, then he is avoiding science. People examine the structure of chromosomes under the electron microscope. But if someone avoids examining it and ascribes that structure to beings from outer space and says, “aliens launched chromosomes to Earth from outer space,” then this is terrible nonsense and the person is again avoiding science.

We call these people to science, in other words to the truth and the facts. Dawkins is at present the defender of Darwinism, its best-known senior ranking figure. I put a notice in a British paper, saying “Let us hold a debate,” as if he had not heard of the challenge before. It was one of Britain’s main dailies. Do you know which one? The Times. We put a notice in it, saying, “Let’s have a debate.” But he avoids that like the plague. If he is a scientist he should come and debate. He debates with high school students and priests and rabbis. But he should debate with people who know about the subject. It won’t take up much of his time, just half an hour. We will make him very welcome in Turkey. We will show him every kindness and respect. But he avoids that because he will be confronted with fossils and the scientific facts. He will be confronted by the facts revealed by paleontology and other sciences. Do you know what he says, that Dawkins whom everyone trusts so much? He says, “Aliens sent chromosomes to Earth.” Is that science? It is a disgrace. He used to espouse pagan religion, and now he espouses a pagan religion from outer space. This is nothing less than utter nonsense.
