Abstract
Darwin’s theory of the evolution of species is one of the significant ones in the explanation of man’s creation. It has always been under discussion and controversy by the thinkers in different fields. The influence of that theory in religion and religious beliefs is undeniable. It has gone far enough to justify atheism challenging religious beliefs. From among the intellectuals who tried to challenge religious doctrines as per the theory and its claims is Yuval Noah Harari. In his acceptance of the evolution theory, Harari mentions three consequences incompatible with the ongoing attitude about God, man and religious beliefs:
That common ancestry between man and animal is a cause to disobey the commands of Lord Almighty; Lack of reasonable justification and explanation for the existence of spirit; Denial of free will and free outcomes.
In their research through a comparative-analytic method, the authors aim to examine the consequences of the theory and Harari’s claims in the above three areas. Moreover, he wants to demonstrate defects in Harari’s words?.
