Darwin put forward his claim that human beings and apes descended from a common ancestor in his book The Descent of Man, published in 1871. From that time until now, the followers of Darwin's path have tried to support this claim. But despite all the research that has been carried out, the claim of "human evolution" has not been backed up by any concrete scientific discovery, particularly in the fossil field.
The man in the street is for the most part unaware of this fact, and thinks that the claim of human evolution is supported by a great deal of firm evidence. The reason for this incorrect opinion is that the subject is frequently discussed in the media and presented as a proven fact. But real experts on the subject are aware that there is no scientific foundation for the claim of human evolution. David Pilbeam, a Harvard University paleoanthropologist, says:
If you brought in a smart scientist from another discipline and showed him the meagre evidence we've got he'd surely say, "forget it; there isn't enough to go on."

No surprise - he probably didn't even realize what he was posting.
It's like the vast number of creationists here who jumped on the ID bandwagon, then jumped off it again once they learned what ID actaully was, that ID accepted Darwinian evolution as a "given."
That wasn't a joke, and it wasn't a "gotcha" comment. I was being serious. Don't you find it curious that, in the fight against science and modernity, your closest allies -- indeed virtually your only allies -- are Islamic extremists? What does that tell you? What should it tell you?
Still here.
Islam in the schools placemarker
Now you're just being ridiculous.
There are plenty of pople out there who don't beleive in the thory we evolved from Apes, kaker.
Who you infer my *only* allies are Islamic Extremists is absurd.
The symbolic meaning of the seal of the Prophet Muhammed (May God bless him and grant him peace) on the covers of all of the books by the writer is related to the content of the books. This seal is an indication that the Qur'an is the last book and the last word of God, and our Prophet Muhammad (May God bless him and grant him peace) is the last of His messengers. By taking this attribute of the Qur'an and the Prophet, the writer seeks, in all of his works, to refute all the basic claims of the systems of disbelief and utter the "last word" which will put a definite end to the assertions of infidelity. The stamp of the Prophet Muhammed (May God bless him and grant him peace) who has the greatest honour and wisdom, is used as a prayer for the intention of saying this last word.Do you accept this; agree with it? Are you trying to get us to accept it or agree with it?
Don't be ridiculous. There are no parables in the Bible.
Are you willing to go word-for-word through Genesis with me too, then?
I am not interested in what people say the text means. I am only interested in what the text actually says. Some commentators views on what it means are his opinions. What the text SAYS is the inspired text, right?
So are you willing to go through the text with me, word by word, in the King James version?
No, there aren't many. Your allies are a relatively small group of fanatical Christians and a somewhat larger group of fanatical Muslims.
You are allied against most Christians, virtually all Jews, Budhists and Hindus and the entire scientific community.
In all the books by the author, faith-related issues are explained in the light of the Qur'anic verses and the Hadith and people are invited to learn God's words and to live by them. All the subjects that concern God's verses are explained in such a way as to leave no room for doubt or question marks in the reader's mind. The sincere, plain and fluent style employed ensures that everyone of every age and from every social group can easily understand the books. This effective and lucid narrative makes it possible to read them in a single sitting. Even those who rigorously reject spirituality are influenced by the facts recounted in these books and cannot refute the truthfulness of their contents.Did you take that in? (He's referring to Allah, by the way). Have you been taken in? Are you trying to find converts at FR?All the books of the author can be read individually or discussed in a group at a time of conversation. Those readers who are willing to profit from the books will find discussion very useful in the sense that they will be able to relate their own reflections and experiences to one another.
In addition, it will be a great service to the religion to contribute to the presentation and reading of these books, which are written solely for the good pleasure of God. All the books of the author are extremely convincing. For this reason, for those who want to communicate the religion to other people, one of the most effective methods is to encourage them to read these books.
You will not find, as in some other books, the personal views of the author, explanations based on dubious sources, styles that are unobservant of the respect and reverence due to sacred subjects, nor hopeless, doubt-creating, and pessimistic accounts that create deviations in the heart.
I agree he does make a good point.
For one, the bio page is a link off the page I posted....and no, I didn't read it.
Secondly, he's not my favorie author.
And third, no, I don't agree with the tachings of Mohammed.

And we know that the Biblical literalists in Kansas had no problem jumping into bed with these guys.
Sometimes I question how many so-called "Creationists" on this site are truly Christian as opposed to ringers with an agenda.
The Christian Creationists I know personally seem to be more honest and more amiable than many of the poster here.
Note for lurkers: There are also many Creationists here that I believe are truly sincere.
Each of the author's books on science-related topics stresses the might, sublimity, and majesty of God in minute detail based on well-structured research and evidence, along with extensive contemplation. These books display, for non-Muslims, the signs of the existence of God, and the excellence of His creation in a very explicit and precise way. On the other hand, they add to the faith and submission of believers, and can serve as perfect materials for communicating Islam to other people (where religion is not practiced in its full sense). A sub-group within this series are the "Books Demolishing the Lie of Evolution". The main purpose of these books is to demolish the materialistic and atheistic philosophy which has been put forward as an alternative and rival to religion and has been imposed on the whole world since the 19th century. The great impact the books make on readers signifies that this purpose is fulfilled to a great extent. These books, just as it is stated in the Qur'an in the words "We hurl the Truth against falsehood, and it knocks out its brain" (Surat al-Anbiya, 18), demolish the brain, i.e., the thought system and ideology of the faithless system; and help complete (the revelation of) God's light (Surat as-Saff, 8). For these reasons, these books play a significant role in the intellectual war against non-belief.[Bolding in original]
How 'bout it scott? You on board with this?
Radical Islamic Creationism PING! :-)
