More evidence of Creation over Evolution

INTRODUCTORY WORDS ABOUT EVOLUTION

Practical Biology has made great advances in revealing the complex chemical and physical processes that permit plants, animals, bacteria, and viruses to function.

Theoretical Biology presents Evolution as the origin and method by which these complex living organisms came into existence.

Where You Came from Determines Who You Are, Why You Are Here, and Where You Are Going.

Are you an evolutionary accident or created in God’s image?

If you are a son of a chimp, you can live by the law of the jungle.

If you are a child of God, you were created in the image of God and have the privilege and duty to live by the law of God!

Did you evolve without purpose or meaning, or were you created with a divine purpose and a heavenly goal?

Two Kinds of Evolution

Micro-Evolution (small evolution) causes variable colors, shapes, and sizes of the same species; it is observed in nature and is accepted as scientific fact by Evolutionists and Creationists.

Macro-Evolution (Big Evolution) is theoretical, not factual, and proposes that non-living material accidentally evolved into plant and animal life and that inferior plant and animal life accidentally evolved into higher forms of life.

SPONTANEOUS GENERATION: TRUTH OR MYTH?

Spontaneous Generation: The Basic Premise on Which Evolution Stands

Evolution is based on the premise that life suddenly emerged from non-living material.

Spontaneous Generation Has Never Been Observed

Scientists of the late 19th century believed that maggots were spontaneously generated from the deterioration of garbage.

Louis Pasteur demonstrated in the laboratory that garbage did not produce maggots when protected under a glass covering.

Unprotected garbage attracted flies that laid their eggs on the garbage and later hatched into maggots, which are fly larvae.

He concluded that spontaneous generation is unscientific and that life always comes from previous life, not from non-life.

Yet, modern evolutionist are still advocating the same unscientific view of spontaneous generation that Pasteur refuted.

The Miller and Urey Experiment

Miller and Urey, artificially created a few amino acids and other DNA components as well as other organic substances, claiming they created life in the test tube.

These organic substances are not living matter, but only some of the components that make up life.

Even these lifeless amino acids were produced not naturally, as spontaneous generation requires, but in the laboratory under closed conditions.

The process required that water be inserted at one point of the experiment and that the resulting substances be protected from water later in the process.

In an open environment, these organic substances would have been destroyed by rain, wind, etc. as rapidly as they were formed. (The cosmos is a closed system, yet the Earth is an open system)

Miller and Urey also utilized electric shocks to form these substances, on the basis that lightning provides the same shock in nature.

The Miller and Urey experiment showed that intelligent man can produce a few of the components that make up life in a closed atmosphere. They did not demonstrate how nature could produce amino acids in an open atmosphere.

The Complicate Process by Which Non-living Material Could Evolve into Living Plants and Creatures

In order to form by chance a simple plant, the protons and neutrons in the nuclei of non-living substances would have to be miraculously replaced with a DNA molecule of a plant.

Other non-living matter would need to be miraculously combined and their nucei replaced with different DNA so as to produce bacteria, fungi, and other forms of animal life.

Plants would have to undergo dramatic changes in the DNA.

Sea Life must undergo complex DNA changes to become land creatures.

HOMOLOGY: A COMMON ANCESTOR OR A COMMON DESIGNER?

Biologists Claim: Similar Structure in Different Animals Proves Evolution

Similarity of Humans to Monkeys, Chimps, and Apes Proves Evolution

Modern biologists now believe “remarkable biochemical similarities of chimpanzee and human proteins” testify to their “incredibly close biological relationship.”

Since a chimpanzee is the closest animal in similarity to man, we would expect it to have some of the same proteins that humans have.

The Evolution of a Chimp into A Human Violates Scientific Observation

“Species” is defined by biologists as having “potential in nature to interbreed and produce fertile offspring and possess similar inherited characteristics.”

Different Species of the same genus sometimes can interbreed, but they do not produce fertile offspring.

The horse and donkey, different Species of the same Genus, can interbreed, but their offspring is a mule, that is infertile and cannot reproduce.

In no case can Species of different Genera interbreed and produce a new Genus or a new species.

The Chimpanzee is from the Genus called Pan and from the species called Troglodytes, whereas the Orangutan is from the Genus called Pongo and the species called Pygmaeus, and man is the species Homo Sapiens of the Genus Homo.

No one has ever observed a chimp give birth to a superior species of its own Genus (Pan), much less a species of a superior Genus (Homo). If it ever occurs, it will be miraculous, contrary to scientific observation.

The Evolution of A Chimpanzee into A Human Violates the Scientific Law of Cell Reproduction

Law of Reproduction: “Cells of each species possess a characteristic number of chromosomes: human cells have 46, cotton plants 52, turkeys 82, and some ferns 1,000. During normal cell division, the two daughter cells must receive the same number of chromosomes.”[iii]

Since two daughter cells must have the same number of chromosomes to reproduce, reproduction cannot occur if either of the parents has a different number of chromosomes.

Chimpanzees have 48 Chromosomes in their DNA.
Humans have 46 Chromosomes with a different number and order of the bands of genes, as well as different genes on each band of each chromosome.

A Chimp of 48 chromosomes cannot produce a fertile offspring of 46 chromosomes because it would violate the scientific Law of Cell Reproduction.

Chimpanzees cannot interbreed with humans and produce any offspring; how much less could two chimps or a chimp and another animal of the same genus produce a human being.

Intelligent scientists cannot cause a chimp to produce a superior species, much less a man.

Since a chimp’s producing a superior species has never been observed and violates the scientific law of cell reproduction, it is anti-scientific.

The Biblical View of the Fixity of the Species is More Scientific Than Evolution

Genesis 1:21,24 says “God created…every living and moving thing…according to their kinds.”

The Bible teaches the fixity of the species or kind, as observed by scientists and in conformity with the law of cell reproduction.

The Biblical law of fixity of species conforms to scientific law, whereas evolution contradicts it.

Homology Indicates a Common Designer, Not a Common Ancestry

MUTATIONS: EVOLUTION OR DEGRADATION?

Laboratory Experiments Show That Radiation Can Modify (Cause Mutations) In the Molecular Structure Of DNA

95% of mutations are fatal or seriously injure the creature so that it is inferior, not superior.

Mutations might cause a different variation of the same species, but in no case have mutations been observed to produce a new species.

Scientist’ Accomplishments with Modifications or Repair of the DNA

Scientists have learned how to repair defective genes, but they have been unable to modify the DNA to create a superior species.

Scientists have developed better quality plants and animals by cross breeding but have never been able to produce a new species of animal or plant.

Scientists’ Failures in Experimenting with DNA

Scientists have continually experimented with radiation treatments to modify the DNA to produce a new species but have never succeeded.

Scientists have experimented with modifications of DNA of fruit flies by inserting multiple copies of an eye gene into fruit-fly embryos.

14 eyes appeared on the fruit fly’s wings, legs, and antennae.

Scientists produced a Frankenstein fruit fly who is grossly inferior to a normal fly.

THE FOSSIL RECORD: EVOLUTION OR CREATION?

Scientists Claim: The Fossil Record Proves Evolution

Many Biology text books leave the impression that only lower forms of life appear in the earliest strata of earth and that the higher forms of life gradually appear in successive strata in later ages of earth’s history.

The evidence actually shows both simple and advance animals suddenly appeared in the Cambrian Age, the first period when life is found.

The famous evolutionist, G.G. Simpson, writes, “All these phyla…begin in the Cambrian…. There is little logical order in time of appearance. The Arthropoda appear in the record as early as undoubted Protozoa, although by general consensus the Protozoa are the most primitive phylum and the Arthropoda the most advances.”

The Encyclopedia Britannica calls this phenomenon “an evolutionary explosion; Yet, it claims it “cannot be” and that life must have existed in Pre-Cambrian Ages, although no evidence of life appeared in earlier ages.

Simpson admits that the absence of Pre-Cambrian fossils is the “major mystery of the history of life.”

Advance and simple life existing side by side in the earliest age of earth confirms the Biblical description of creation, but contradicts evolution.

The Evolutionary Picture Presented by Scientists Would Be Miraculous if True.

Life on earth begins with a reptile, who miraculously evolved from a fish, which is cold blooded, has scales, with fins, no legs, no jaw, and lives in water.

Reptiles are: Cold blooded, have scales, 4 legs, and 6 bones in the lower jaw, live on land and have 18 more differences.

The reptile miraculously turned into a bird; birds are warm-blooded, with feathers, 2 wings and 2 legs, with a beak and 18 more differences.

If this reptile’s legs evolved into wings, in the interim he could neither walk nor fly and would have died before he could ever evolve into a bird.

The same reptile miraculously turned into a snake that has scales, but no legs and 18 other differences. In the process of losing his legs, the intermediate would have died before it produced a snake.

This same amazing reptile produced another kind of reptile who miraculously turned into a mouse, which is a mammal, who miraculously evolved into a horse, who incredibly evolved into a monkey.

Mammals are warm-blooded instead of cold-blooded, have fur or skin, give birth to the child out of birth track instead of hatching eggs, have 1 bone in the lower jaw (instead of 6) and have 18 more differences.

Every one of these miraculous creatures of evolution violated the definition of a species and contradicted the molecular law of Cell Reproduction that requires that the DNA of each animal have the same number of chromosomes of the parents.

None of these asserted evolutionary changes have ever been observed, nor have they been scientifically produced in the laboratory.

Missing Transitional Fossils Disprove Evolution and Confirms Creation

If evolution is true there should be hundreds of examples of transitional fossils between phyla of insects, spine creatures, and worms, and even more transitional fossils between mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and birds.

Simpson, admits, “Transitional types are not invariably lacking in the record. A multitude of them are known between species, many between genera, a few between classes, but none is true, between phyla.

 

Sir Fred Hoyle, who won the Nobel Prize in Astronomy, says, “The evolutionary record leaks like a sieve.”

 

If man descended from a chimp there should be thousands of fossils of half-chimp/ half-humans, but there are none.

The Absence of Living Intermediate Animals Disproves Evolution

If modern man evolved from a Chimp the intermediate half-chimpanzee/half-human would be superior in intellectual power to modern chimps, and thus millions of them should still be living in our modern world.

According to the Darwin’s theory of the Survival of the Fittest, these transitional beings should have survived better than the chimp. Yet not one of them survived. Why is the Chimp present in abundant numbers, but his superior evolutionary product is nowhere to be seen?

The Fossil Record Indicates Creation and Fixity of Species, Not Evolution

OUTDATED ARGUMENTS STILL USED BY SOME BIOLOGISTS

Embryology: Scientists Claim the Human Embryo Proves Past Evolution

Scientists once claimed that the embryo of a human passes through states of its evolutionary past from fish to animal, to human.

A human embryo first appears with a tail like that of a fish, then loses its tail and produces legs, supposedly demonstrating its past evolutionary history.

Study of the DNA shows that the design of a human is encoded so that its embryo will gradually develop into a full-grown human being.

The DNA in a human has no similarity whatsoever to the DNA in a fish.

Informed scientists no longer use this argument, but many freshman biology textbooks still teach that embryology is proof of evolution.

Vestigial Organs: No Proof of Evolution (Organs for which no useful function has been found)

1960 biology textbooks listed 200 vestigial structures of the human body, including the thyroid and pituitary glands, all as evidence of evolution.

By 1990 modern biology found useful functions for all 200.

Natural Selection and Survival of the Fittest: Does not Create A New Species.

Natural selection produces micro-evolution.

Flowers can change colors but not into different plants.

Animals can change shapes and colors, but their species remains unchanged.

Survival of the Fittest also produces only micro-evolution, not macro-evolution.

Mutations can cause a plant to become sturdier, but not to turn into a different species of plant.

Moths of a certain color survive better than other moths because of environment, but don’t produce a different species.

Animals can become stronger and prettier based on survival of the fittest, but do not produce different species.

New discover nullifies Darwin’s main argument about the Giraffe.

Darwin claimed that Giraffes suffered successive famines and that only the ones with long necks survived.

Scientists have discovered that tiny blood pumps cover the entire length of the Giraffe’s neck. Without these pumps the heart could not pump the blood to the head and the Giraffe would die.

Thus, the DNA would have to be altered to add these blood pumps to the Giraffe’s growing neck to circulate the blood all the way to the Giraffe’s head and back to the heart.

Nothing natural could rewrite DNA to include these blood pumps; therefore, Giraffes have always had those blood pumps.

EVOLUTION: THE SIN OF IDOLATRY!

Man’s Homage to Mother Earth and Animals as His Maker is Idolatry.

Romans 1: 21 – 25 says that the “wise” (evolutionistic scientists and philosophers), “became fools” when they rejected God as Creator and worshiped animals as their makers.

Men who believe all life evolved naturally from the dust of the earth worship Mother Earth as their creator.

Men who believe reptiles evolved into chimps foolishly give credit to reptiles and chimps as their father and maker.

“Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?” (1 Corinthians 1:20).

The Gospel of Christ Calls Men Out of Idolatry (Evolution), (Acts 14: 8 – 20).

CONCLUSION

The scientific evidence contradicts evolution. Only an omnipotent, omniscient creator can satisfy the scientific evidence.
