Harun Yaha is absolutely someone to avoid if you wish to learn anything meaningful. Every one of his documents that I have read has been filled with gross errors, blatant misrepresentation, appalling misunderstanding and what seem remarkably like cynical lies. Please discard this biased, self-indulgent filth at once. (Filth is not to strong a word for this corruption of thought that Yaha spouts on the internet.)
Let's take a look at some of the nonsense in this particular source:
From pets such as cats, which we come across every day, to animals inhabiting virgin forests, every species has wondrous features and amazing skills. For example w
e are surprised to see how bees can build such perfect honeycombs and can do calculations as if they were expert mathematicians.
The bees do not carry out any calculations at all. When you throw a cricket ball, or baseball, do you carry out a series of calculations that involve highly complex calculations of velocities, mass, accelerations, muscular power, hand and arm positioning, etc. To replicate this would require software that handled a multiplicity of equations and variable inputs. You, on the other hand, just throw the ball .... naturally.
As we see how considerate a crocodile or a lion is to its young, we wonder how such wild animals can behave so affectionately.
Let us set aside the argument as to whether or not this is affection (or just exactly what affection is). If the parent does not display this affection then the probability of the offspring surviving to adulthood is greatly reduced. If the parents are not instinctively directed to behave in this way they are unlikely to have offspring that survive to reproduce. Therefore it is completely to be expected that positive survival behaviours, arising from genetically directed instinct, will persist. In contrast in creatures that lack these tendencies their genes will be lost as they will have no surviving offspring.
It (
the fish) has the lungs, eyes and skin that enable it to live underwater.
The vast majority of fish do not have lungs.
They could not possibly have learnt the tasks they carry out by chance either.
Absolutely correct. Chance had very little to do with it. Natural selection of useful survival features and behaviours is what led to these abilities.
It is not possible for them to know all these things unless there is someone who taught them everything they do.
This is an unfounded assertion. Yaha claims this to be true, but his sole justification for it is incredulity. Because he does not believe it is possible it must, therefore, be impossible. This tells us about his limited knowledge and imagination, but nothing about the real world.
That's some of the nonsense in the first two paragraphs of his book. I strongly urge you just forget about his biased, close minded preaching. However, if you insist that some of it makes sense to you then please choose one of the Chapter headings and I'll show you, in detail, why his arguments are totally flawed.
