No Assumptions Allowed A favorite phrase often stated by proponents of the evolutionary model is If you
will just allow me this assumption... Is it not interesting that in order to prove that
God does not exist the atheist requests of the creationist the allowance of the assumption that God does not exist? The
whole process of evolutionary thought is built upon some basic assumptions, which if not allowed
would cause the evolutionary model to crumble. A fact cannot be proven by a method which is
based upon assumptions. The weaknesses of the evolutionary geologic timetable are made
evident when one examines the basis of the dating processes and the methods by which strata are
identified and dated. The dating processes assume a constant atmosphere, and also assume that the rate of
loss of radiation or Carbon 14 isotopes has remained steady. Strata are often identified and
dated by the fossils found within them, and in turn the fossils are identified and dated by the strata
layers in which they are found. (This type of reasoning reminds me very much of a dog
persistently chasing his tail.) The evolutionist pleads just allow me this assumption and that is the one
thing we cannot allow. If the atheistic evolutionist has evidence to present that will disprove Gods
creation of the universe, then let him produce it. The cold, hard fact is he will not, he cannot, and he
never will. To quote the evolutionists own champion, Dr. Robert Jastrow, According to
this story, every tree, every blade of grass, and every creature in the sea and on the land evolved out of one
parent strand of molecular matter drifting lazily in a warm pool. What concrete evidence supports that remarkable theory of the origin of life? There is none.
