Text of the lecture of Bucaille on 'The Creation of Man, Creation or Evolution' in Chicago in 1987

The basic characteristic of living organism is the fantastic organization. The genes order the functions of every cell while man is able to voluntarily influence central functions of the organs of the body. In animals most of these functions are automatic due to extremely sophisticated programming in the cells for example, in the navel cells of the birds. There are very complex migrations under the dependencies of prodigious stocking of information including automatic behavior. We know the extra reduce volume of central nervous system where the program is registered. It is an example from which we have an idea of the capability of living matter necessitating a prodigious organization.


Where can we situate the origin of life? As far as we know that the most likely hypothesis is of an aquatic one. Algae and bacteria existed one billion years ago.  The earth is four and half billion years old. Other micro organisms found in rocks are dated back to three billion years ago. Pluricellular - multi forms of life most probably developed from unicellular forms. The sponges are likely to be the most primitive pluricelular beings. From these primitive forms, other forms possessing huge cells and organs may have been derived. That might have acquired nervous and muscular functions. These are likely to be formed less than one billion years ago. The first invertebrates probably appeared five hundred or six hundred years ago. The Vertebrates came later roughly four hundred fifty million years ago like wise certain fishes which continue to develop thereafter. The first terrestrial vertebrates or amphibians and reptiles appeared some three hundred fifty years ago and following them came the mammals one hundred eighty million years ago and the birds one hundred thirty five million years ago. The brief summary shows the magnitude of evolution in animal kingdom in evermore developed and complex form in a perfectly ordered manner. It suggests that its explanation by chance is impossible. The genetic code which controls the functions of each of our cell is the director having control over all transformation that comes in an orderly non chaotic manner.


New characteristics appear in evolution. This is obligatory to apply on one or more genes. Evolution is perpetually the creator of more complex forms among the animals and the plants. Thus when one reads even very little about living beings it becomes clear to him that everything is entirely programmed at the level of genetic code and it is exercising its control over extremely complicated functions in connection with the anatomic modification.
How the existence of a programmer can be found in compatibility with science? Even furthermore how an objective and impartial scientist of our age can avoid the impossibility of explanation of this extraordinary arrangement of the phenomena of the life? Which would depend on the notion of chance formally or then one can rely on the preconceived ideas such as Darwin’s theory of natural selection. Which in no way explain about evolution that we know today? What characterizes a living being is the information recorded in genetic code. It contains specifications concerning its morphology and functions of every kind. Evolution is as we know dependent on process of successive addition of informational data over the course of time. Scientists can argue on infinite items about causes of determining the fact but they can not go away from the fact because it is patently obvious. Certain of today’s theorists, who claim to have explanation for every thing, are at a loss of words when I ask them just where the point of origin of genetic information lies? Lamakh and Darwin didn’t provide explanation of the genesis of broad basic divisions of the plants and animal kingdoms.


All of these events of evolution took place in very long stages. At beginning there appeared first signs of particular features which was followed by period of authentication of this phenomena which is render by the phase when heavens slow down and creation of new types finally ground to a halt and presently it would appear to be in final stage. In the case of man transformation came to halt more recently. All the major organizational types were laid at a very early stage. From the moment all types adopt certain form that oriented them into a particular direction. No organizational type immerged from these specialized forms. Paul Garaci in his book wrote and I quote

“Creative evolution has its roots in prototype forms. Without them no type of organism can ever appear.”

At cellular level evolution raise questions which can not be answered by micro biology or genetics. No new phenomena can occur in the cell without intermediary of DNA molecule which by means of RNA molecule is responsible for creation of protein which constitutes origin for chemical synthesis. For every important morphological variation the DNA molecule must acquire a new gene thus adding it to pond of chemical held information. Modification must occur in gene that already existed. Professor Garaci, who taught evolution in animal kingdom for thirty years at the university of Paris, emphasized that most primitive being can’t genuinely and substantially had contained  within itself all the genus of animals.Same is for the vegetables also. For him the obtaining of genus is absolute prerequisite for evolution.
