Posters recently being displayed on some 800 buses in Britain openly declare a fact that the Darwinist lobby and its supporters have tried to cover up for so many years: DARWINISM LEADS TO ATHEISM. The bus posters, supported by Richard Dawkins, an atheist and Darwinist, represent one of the most important proofs of that fact.
Darwin’s unscientific and irrational view is that all life on Earth in all its great diversity came into being not through Allah’s (God) creation (Allah is beyond that), but as the result of random and haphazard processes. According to that view, THERE IS NO PURPOSE, REASON OR AIM in Darwinism. In Darwinism, it is “chance” that somehow brings all entities into being, diversifies them, and makes them perfect and flawless. Darwinism’s objective is to eliminate the idea of Creation by making a god out of chance. Darwinism is based on the materialist belief that matter is all that has absolute existence. It is a heretical faith invented in order to oppose the idea that living things were created out of nothing, the metaphysical existence of the soul that makes human beings human, and their existence depends on the Will and Control of Almighty Allah.
Some evolutionists try to cover up that fact. Their aim is this: they are aware that Darwinism is doomed to total collapse in this century. For that reason they are trying to portray the perversion of Darwinism as a moderate ideology, in order to re-establish its influence over the world and draw various circles into their orbit. So much so, that they have even managed to suggest that “religion and evolution are not incompatible” and to give people the impression that belief in the theory of evolution need not mean the denial of Allah.
The fact is, however, that THIS IS A MONSTROUS LIE.
DarwINISM ABSOLUTELY REJECTS BELIEF IN ALLAH. Darwinism is a false and exceedingly dangerous ideology intended to deny the belief of Allah and to engage in propaganda to that end. To attempt to reconcile this heretical ideology with belief in Allah means falling into Darwinists’ vile trap, and that in turn means espousing Darwinism against belief in Allah.
Some Darwinists, however, are not at all reluctant to come out and state that Darwinist ideology eventually denies Allah and leads to atheism. The best known of these people is Richard Dawkins, who is on the agenda concerning the matter of bus posters nowadays. Dawkins’ admissions that Darwinist belief leads to atheism read as follows:
"They call me as a witness and a lawyer and said ‘Dr. Dawkins has your belief in evolution, has your study of evolution turned you towards atheism?’ I would have to say ‘YES’… People like me are a bad news for the science lobby, the evolution lobby. By the way I’m being a lot more frank and honest in this interview than many people in this field would be." [1]
"Darwin made it possible to be an intellectually fulfilled atheist." [2]
The Cornell University evolutionist William Provine states that “naturalistic evolution has clear consequences that Charles Darwin understood perfectly”. And according to Provine these consequences are:
1) No gods worth having exist (Allah is beyond that)
2) No life after death exists;
3) No ultimate foundation for ethics exists;
4) No ultimate meaning in life exists; and
5) Human free will is nonexistent." [3]
Charles Smith, president of the American Association for the Advancement of Atheism, summarizes the matter by saying:
"Evolution is atheism."[4]
Now, however, 800 buses travelling around the streets of Britain have documented the fact that Darwinism equals atheism. These buses, carrying posters making atheist propaganda, make it perfectly clear what Darwinism brings for mankind. As the major backer of this campaign, Richard Dawkins has turned blatant Darwinist propaganda into blatant atheist propaganda. Because, THESE TWO BELIEFS ARE MUTUALLY SUPPORTIVE.
Now however, to attempt to portray Darwinist ideology as innocuous despite all this clear evidence and unequivocal admissions or to ask “what need is there for a struggle against Darwinism?” or to be misled into thinking that religion and evolution are not incompatible and thus engage in propaganda on its behalf, is a terrible error. People who espouse that idea HAVE FALLEN INTO THE DARWINIST TRAP. Quite unknowingly, they espouse Darwinism and, most importantly of all, atheism. They unknowingly support those who fight the religion of Allah. Almighty Allah warns Muslims against that very danger:
"Do not argue on behalf of those who betray themselves. Allah does not love any evildoing traitors." (Surat an-Nisa, 107)
Therefore, people of good conscience who fear Allah have a duty to live in the awareness of this terrible scourge and to strive in Allah’s name until this heretical ideological system is finally eradicated. As our Lord says in another verse:
"So do not obey the kafirun but use this to battle against them with all your might." (Surat al-Furqan, 52)
