A short refutation of the false theory of evolution of man from ape.
Just as in the entire universe, miraculous systems that are created by
our Lord also exist within the human body. One of these systems, the
voice box or larynx is one of these superior miracles of creation. The
voice box is the name given to the part of the windpipe, or trachea, that
opens to the mouth, or oral cavity. Right at the entrance of the larynx
are located the vocal cords. Thanks to the muscles that govern them,
these cords can assume different shapes and as a result, we can make
various sounds, including speech.
One reason why other living beings
can not make sounds like human beings is that their voice boxes are
located at a higher part of the mouth cavity than in human beings. The
human larynx is lower in the windpipe than in any other animal,
including monkeys. Thanks to this position, the breath coming out of the
lungs is transformed by the voice box into a wide variety of different
sounds.
Evolutionists fail to answer many questions. But when they
try to explain them by offering the thesis of selection of advantageous
traits through natural selection,it is at this point, they face another
deadlock for the lower position of the voice box is by no means a
physical advantage. Due to this position, the food we eat may easily get
into the windpipe and choke us, or the liquids we drink may
accidentally get into the lungs.
In order to prevent this,
while we are eating or drinking anything, a little tongue has been
created that closes the voice box. When we try to eat or drink something
and speak at the same time, these two actions interfere with each other
and as each of you have certainly experienced during your life we
develop an immediate cough. But animals have a different system. The
windpipes of animals including monkeys for instance are higher up in
their throat. For this reason, whatever food they swallow never gets
into their windpipe and consequently, they do not run the risk of
choking.
Despite our dangers and difficulties in taking
nutrition, our unique voice box structure allows for speech. The
constant risk of getting food into the windpipe, on the other hand, is
eliminated by reflexes gained during infancy and by an organ called the
uvula, which is a little flap of tissue. Briefly the lower position for
the voice box's structure is unique to human beings.
Evolutionists of course assert that natural selection has chosen the
more advantageous structure over time, but the more advantageous larynx
would only result in incoherence. But the true situation is exactly the
opposite, and entirely at variance with the evolutionary rationale. This
odd fact is something that Charles Darwin tried to explain away
" ..it is an odd fact that every food and liquid we swallow has to pass
over the opening to the windpipe with the risk of slipping into our
lungs." (Darwin C.1859 On the Origin of Species, Facsimile edition.
Cambridge: Harvard University Press, p. 191.)
When we examine
the features of the voice box, we discover a miracle of creation with
details that have been meticulously calculated. The voice boxes of
babies are positioned higher up in the throat than in adults. This way,
the infants can breathe while suckling, without running the risk of
getting their mothers milk down into the windpipes and lungs. Yet before
the infant gains the ability to speak, this voice box which has up
until now been a hindrance for speech lowers itself in the throat. In
other words, it develops in the right way just at the right time.
This example once again reveals that human beings enjoy a perfect
creation. Allah, the Lord of all the universes, the One Who creates man,
grants him a body proper for its needs, protects babies against
choking, and lets them speak by placing their voice box at the right
position with an ideal timing.
In one verse, Allah proclaims: "He created Man and taught him clear expression." (The Quran 55:3)
