Religions - Man Made or Divine?

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم One often hears these remarks about religions, that they are all products of human imagination or fear. Quite contrary to this, is the fact that, most people do not like to be "tied down" by religious rules. If one were to look closely into these religions, especially their scriptures, one would notice underlying similarities in them. Most noticeable is the existence of a Creator and that people will be held accountable, in life after death, for their actions and will be rewarded or punished accordingly. The concept of praying to God is so central to all religions, that it is implausible that people around the world - geographically and linguistically separated - came up with ideas so similar. It is not uncommon to find phrases and concepts which are strikingly similar between different religions. Also very common is presence of key figures, who are central to these religions and are role models for their followers. An interesting ritual, which ha...

I know how it all happened... it Evolved!

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم How did the first single celled organisms appeared on earth? It evolved somehow. How did multi cellular organisms came to be? It evolved from single celled organisms. How did various plants, trees, animals of sea and land originate? They evolved of course. How did birds originate? They evolved from dinosaurs. How did humans originate? They evolved from apes. So what does evolution mean? It means slow change in organism(s) based on environmental conditions it is subjected to, such that the organism is able to better adapt to the conditions. How does evolution work? What drives it? What is the mechanism behind it? It is unknown and studies surrounding it are not able to come to decisive conclusion. Has evolution been observed in reality? Of course not! The process takes place in very small incremental changes which accumulate over millions of years; thus there is no direct observation of evolution actually taking place. But if this is true then we ...

Marvelous Cells, Arrogant Evolutionists

By Fahad Iqbal
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم Drowned in evolution stories, questions around most fundamental building blocks of life - namely Cells - are forgotten or conveniently ignored . How did the first single-celled organism originate on earth, still remains a mystery. When single-celled organisms were first discovered, it was proposed, that they were very simple collection of carbon, fluids and membrane, which could have formed by chance. It is only after immense advancement in technology, which allowed us to look deeper, that we have begun to appreciate the complexity of single celled organisms. It is now established, that the key components of a cell like DNA, RNA and Proteins, cannot form by chance or random events and that the probability of that happening is zero. DNA is made of specific proteins, intertwined and ordered in certain format to contain encoded information about various functions to be performed in the cell. RNA decodes information in DNA and provides instructions to other p...
