The fact that life evolved out of nearly nothing, some 10 billion years after the universe evolved out of literally nothing-is a fact staggering that I would be mad to attempt words to do it justice.-Richard Dawkins

While atheist Richard Dawkins is arguably the modern poster boy for Charles Darwin, both men have something that radically keeps them separate. Darwin believed in the existence of God. In The origin of species he refers to creation as the works of God, and calls God the Creator an amazing seven times. Richard Dawkins believes Darwin was a genius, yet claims, The more you understand the significance of evolution, the more you are pushed away from the agnostic position and towards atheism. It seems Professor Dawkins thinks Charles Darwin didn't understand the significance of his own theory. Perhaps the only genius Darwin had was his insistence that this creation is the work of Almighty God.

Just months after the 2009 discovery of the supposed missing link, author Ray Comfort turns the tables on evolutionists. In Nothing Created Everything, he systematically puts the evidence for evolution under a microscope and shows it simply doesn't hold up.

The book demonstrates that when it comes to explaining how life began, atheists and evolutionists offer faith and no facts. Ironically, atheists insist nothing created everything-a scientific impossibility.

In a conversational tone, Comfort's book speaks to both atheists and believers and urges this discussion be based on hard evidence. And when it is, people will realize evolution is a theory that can't be tested or measured and therefore can't be scientific.
