| Preface
One the most important
factors for the continued existence of any country is
its defence capability. As a nation, it must be in a
constant state of preparedness to face all kinds of
threats and dangers from external and internal sources.
No matter how well developed and advanced a country
may be, if it fails to defend itself, it could be brought
to ruin with the launching of even a minor military
offensive against it, or even a well-directed and unanticipated
terrorist act. In the face of such threats, neither
its natural resources, its technological prowess, not
its economy will be of any avail. If the country in
question is unable to defend itself, it may even cease
to exist.
This is one of the reasons why
significant amounts of the national income is regularly
allocated to defence; nowadays, armed forces
have to be provided with the most advanced weaponry,
tools and equipment fitted with the latest technological
features, and meticulous training has to be given
to soldiers in an all-out attempt to keep defence systems
fully functional.
No less than countries, people
too have to be concerned about their defence,
if they want to lead a healthy and peaceful life. They
inevitably have to protect themselves and their possession
against criminal acts, such as theft and murder,
as well as against natural disasters, such as
accidents, fire, earthquakes and floods.
But this is not the end of the matter. Human beings
have other enemies, which go unseen by them and,
as such, are often ignored. Actually, these enemies
are much more resilient than the others. Serious measures
must, therefore, be taken to guard against them.
Who, or what then these
enemies that keep human beings under constant threat?
They are bacteria, viruses, and
similar microscopic organisms, which may exist in the
water we drink, the food we eat, the house we live in,
and the office where we work. In essence, they are everywhere.
Most interestingly, in spite
of being surrounded by such a serious threat, we make
no effort whatsoever to protect ourselves against it.
This is because there is a mechanism within our bodies,
which undertakes this task on our behalf, providing
the necessary protection for us, without causing us
the slightest disturbance. This is "The Defence
System".
It is one of the most important and amazing systems
operating within our bodies, for it undertakes one of
the most vital missions of life. We may not be aware
of it, but all the elements of the immune system protect
our bodies just like the soldiers of a huge army. The
defence cells that protect the human body against invaders,
such as bacteria, viruses, and similar micro-organisms,
are equipped with extraordinary abilities. The patterns
of intelligence, effort, and sacrifice, which these
cells display during the war they wage in the body,
astonish everyone who learns about them.
People in general would like
to know what makes them ill, how illnesses take complete
control of their bodies, what causes fever, fatigue,
pain in their bones and joints, and which processes
take place in their bodies throughout their illnesses.
The main purpose of this site
is to explore how this system, which protects the human
body just like a disciplined, organized army, has come
into being and how it works.
These two points will lead us
to very important conclusions. First, we shall together
witness the uniqueness and the perfection in God’s
creation. Second, we shall observe what contradictions
the theory of evolution, a superstitious belief having
no verification whatsoever, includes within its own
reasoning, and on what an unsound basis it was erected.
Before proceeding to the main
topic, it will be useful to state another important
point: In books on the immune system, you will often
see statements such as:
"We do not yet
know how this formed…"
"The reason
still remains unknown…"
"Research on the topic is under way …"
"According to a theory…"
These statements are actually important
confessions. These are expressions of the helplessness
people experience at the outset of the 21st century —
even with all the latest technology and accumulated knowledge
at their disposal — in the face of the miraculous work
these tiny cells accomplish. The tasks achieved by these
microorganisms include such intricate operations that
the human mind can barely grasp the details of this well
established system. There is obviously a secret wisdom
hidden in the immune system which eludes man’s understanding.
As you explore this site, you will
witness the superiority of this wisdom, hidden both
in your cells and in other details pertaining to your
body. The ultimate conclusion is that this could only
be the wisdom of a supreme "Creator".
Science may one day succeed in
solving all the secrets of the immune system and even
produce a similar artificial system by imitating the
actions of these cells. No doubt, this task will require
highly educated professionals using the most sophisticated
technology and instruments available, working in highly
advanced laboratories. The most important point here
is that the accomplishment of such a task would once
again invalidate the theory of evolution, proving that
such a system cannot originate by coincidence.
The likelihood of the spontaneous
development of a mechanism such as the defence system
currently seems too remote. As scientists unravel the
secrets of this system, they are enthralled by the design
they encounter. The points that are revealed lead to
many other questions, which make the wisdom and consciousness
in the cell all the more apparent. Therefore, it has
become very clear that the defence system, like all
the other systems in the body, could not have developed
gradually, just by chance, as suggested by the theory
of evolution.
The main purpose of this book
is to introduce you to these "brave warriors" within
you, while also proving to you that this mind-boggling
system is a special sign of creation. In relation to
this, we will see how the scenarios formulated by the
theory of evolution are demolished and rendered meaningless
when faced with the facts. The topic which will be particularly
highlighted here, is not the biological details of the
defence system, which are easily accessible in any book
of biology or medicine, but the miraculous aspect of
the system. We have especially avoided the unnecessary
use of biological and physiological terms in order to
make the contents of the site easily understandable
to readers of all ages and professions.
Lastly, we want to remind you
that even now, you are totally indebted to your defence
system if you are able to read this site peacefully,
without being infected by the microbes all around you.
Had the immune system not existed in your body, you
would never have been able to read this site, having
left this world even before you learned reading and
writing. |
