efore examining the perfection of the systems that
allow birds to talk, first it’s worth dwelling on the
invalid assumption of “coincidence,” the founda-
tion of all the hypotheses in evolutionary theory. Doing so
will make it easier to see through the highly illogical claim
that the remarkable characteristics of the creatures cited in
this book are simply the product of coincidences.
The noun
coincidence
is typically modified by such ad-
jectives as
unconscious, disorderly, unplanned
and
random.
These words imply no conscious power, system, rationality,
nor any source of knowledge. They express the occurrence of
unplanned situations, and spontaneous events with no spe-
cific purpose.
But look at how the word
coincidence
is used in
Darwinist-materialist circles,
and you’ll encounter some-
what different definitions.
Scientists who defend the
Darwinist-materialist philos-
ophy link to the word
coincidence
meanings that should rightly be at-
tributed to Creation, such as
con-
sciousness
,
rationality, knowledge
, and
plan
. They speak about coincidence
as though it were referring to a pow-
erful sentient being. Their purpose in
all this is to deny the reality that living
creatures have been created.
