| Natural species are essentially stable since their origin
The data of observation from molecular genetics, embryology, anatomy, paleontology and population genetics do not deliver a proof for an evolutionary process. On the other hand, science demonstrates the originality of species: Within the framework of their limited natural variability, species have always been the same since their origin. They are not connected by common descent. New constructions and functions did not and can not evolve, as proven by the most basic natural law, the absence of evolving organs and a logical analysis.
Sir Ernst Chain, Nobel Prize for biochemistry, on the hypothesis of biological evolution:
"... an hypothesis without evidence and against the facts."

Abstract of talk given on 27 March 2012:
Thermodynamics excludes a physical origin of life in open systems
— Thomas Seiler — Stuttgart
Entropy determines that all processes in nature proceed from less probable distributions to more probable ones. An objection to this premise is that the constraints of thermodynamics are not valid for open systems - in which biological structures exist. However, the limits of open systems can be illustrated by the example of machines that reduce entropy such as refrigerators. They transfer heat from a cold volume to a warm volume. This highly improbable phenomenon can only happen because a complex cooling mechanism exists already. A further example of order increasing in open systems is the formation of crystals, e.g. snow-flakes. When heat is removed, a phase-transition leads to the appearance of macroscopic regularity which reflects a molecular regularity. The emergence of life does not belong to such processes since these are the physical ways in which a hidden pre-existing order is made visible. No really new order or information is generated in open systems. Either the information content was already present in a complex machine or it already existed in the symmetry of the underlying molecules or in the feedback mechanism of a dissipative structure. On the other hand, there is no physical arrangement containing the information needed to build up life from non-life or complex creatures from simpler creatures. Their physical emergence is excluded by the Second Law of Thermodynamics because they do not belong to those pre-programmed structures which open systems can form.

Booklet on stability of organic constructions and functions
A brief summary of key arguments against the proposed evidence of evolution and for the originality of species.
Available here.
One proof against the theory of evolution
A logical contradiction in evolutionary theory arises from the existence of our minds. Mutation and selection would — if it were possible — only produce constructions and functions which are beneficial for survival in the material world. Any useless complex structure would quickly be removed by natural selection.
