CONTRADICTIONS IN HUMAN REASONING

The Challenge of The Qur’an ~ 326 ~ a protein is more complicated and the number of DNA links needed to code for it jumps from ten to twenty. A thousand billion generations would then be needed, and if one hundred links are required (as is often the case), the number of generations would be impossibly high because no organism reproduces fast enough to achieve this. The situation for the neo-Darwinian theory is evidently hopeless. It might be possible for genes to be modified slightly during the course of evolution, but the evolution of specific sequences of DNA links of any appreciable length is clearly not possible’ (p.110). And in any case, as Hoyle had earlier stated, ‘Shufflings of the DNA code are disadvantageous because they tend to destroy cosmic genetic information rather than to improve it.’ To solve this problem, another theory, called the Panspermia Theory, was formed. It held that life originated in outer space. From there it came to earth. But as it turned out, this theory created new problems of its own. Where in the vastness of space was there a planet or a star with the conditions
