How old do you think the earth is Plunkett?

Imagine two individuals sharing 98% of their DNA sequences, yet exhibiting distinct personalities and preferences. This analogy aptly describes the puzzling differences between humans and chimpanzees, whose DNA sequence boasts a staggering 98.8% similarity. For decades scientists used comparative genomics to infer relationships.

This leads to some preposterous conclusions - we are 35% similar to a daffodil. Or humans are 94% similar to dogs. With the advent of epigenetics these studies are turning to comparative epigenetics.

How does a vertical tree trunk manage to fossilize itself through multiple strata of rock, when the official narrative is that said strata take eons to be laid down on top of one another?

Is the official geologic timeline Bollox?

Oh that's an easy one. Just picture what you remember from watching earth quakes & landslides combined?

The earths shakes quakes and cracks open,Ok? then the landslide where the edge of a forest slides down into the deep dark coal seam - 100 million years after the coal had been forming . . . See?

The issue is that on many examples of polystrate tree fossils, there is no evidence of tectonic activity or a mudslide action in the strata surrounding the tree fossil.

There are examples which don’t make sense in the context of standard geological understanding.

What could be the cause of such?

Part 1 of destroying Neo Darwinism tonight is an interview with Astrophysicist Hugh Ross by Glenn Beck. A thoughtful Ross goes through his journey from Atheism to Theism through reason

 

[Tiger]

Part 2 of destroying Neo Darwinism for the pseudo science that it is, comes from an interview with Dr. Romulo who attained a PHD in evolutionary biology from Yale and Oxford. Starting out as an atheist/materialist, he soon learned that neo Darwinian theory was horse-shit and unscientific and re-converted to Catholicism 5 years ago.

This is a long and thorough review, based fully from the view of science without needing to reference religion.

Scientists just discovered a new way cells control their genes — it's called 'backtracking' - Sahana Sitaraman

Scientists just discovered a new way cells control their genes — it's called 'backtracking'

Scientists have discovered that, when a DNA-reading enzyme moves backwards along a gene, it may do so to help control when the gene is turned on.

Cells in the placenta have an unusual trick for activating gentle immune defenses and keeping them turned on when no infection is present. It involves crafting and deploying a fake virus.

The Vacuous Rhetoric of Evolution

This is a quote from the 1966 Philadelphia symposium, but it is precisely the same sort of argument that any substantive critic of Neo-Darwinism keeps running into from the Neo-Darwinians:

Combinations of different genes occur such that every individual is a unique combination, and the selective assay of the value of each random mutation is performed simultaneously in this framework for thousands of mutations at a time. The acceptance of the neo-Darwinian concept of evolution appears to be eminently valid on this basis. However, a critical feature is the occurrence of mechanisms for genetic combination and recombination, and a major criticism of the neo-Darwinian concept which has been raised at this meeting is premised on the lack of such a mechanism in the initial steps of the evolution of a “sense” sequence of a polypeptide or polynucleotide from an initially “nonsense” sequence. It does not, however, seem an extreme extrapolation from the known facts of nucleic acid replication and transcription to envisage that combination and recombination are inherent features of polynucleotides, and the evolution of “sense” sequences then becomes a process of reasonable probability.
– Dr. Alex Fraser, Professor of Genetics, University of California Davis, California

Let’s break the argument down into its component parts:

1. There is no mechanism. This is readily admitted.

2. This lack of a mechanism renders the hypothesis impossible.

3. But it doesn’t strike the Neo-Darwinian true believer to be an extreme extrapolation to imagine what this nonexistent, never-observed mechanism could be if it existed, which it doesn’t.

4. And if we simply imagine that this nonexistent mechanism existed, then the proposed process that requires it in order to function becomes theoretically possible.

5. Therefore, the process works as imagined

Which underlines how little we poor humans know about the working of nature, preferring to bundle all our ignorance up into one big ball and call it God.

Nice straw man you've constructed there.

There is no historical evidence that man believes in deities as some form of cope. It's almost like you've never read Augustine or Aquinas.

And the fact remains, there is no proven biological mechanism to support the theory of evolution. The real cope is out there, chiefly manifested by people who hang onto the doorframes of a failed worldview by claiming adaption is evolution . It isn't.

As would be expected, an evolutionist responds to a 54 minute video 20 minutes after its posted.

No surprise there. It’s incredible how Dawkins can entertain the stupid masses.

Despite its circuitous route, the recurrent laryngeal nerve still serves its function adequately. It innerveates the larynx and fascilitates essential physiological processes like breathing, swallowing and vocalisation. Its structures function well enough to ensure survival and reproduction.

Regardless, it's still poor design. Certainly not intelligent. No explanation for it other than the one given by Biologists holds any water.
