  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

[size=+1]Evolution's 'Proofs' Rapidly Vanishing[/size]
What do peppered moths, ancient horses and the Piltdown man have in common? They are all pillars of evidence of evolution that have crumbled. "These pillars sounded so scientific and compelling that multitudes put their faith in the bridge and walked out on it," says Thomas Heinze in his new book, The Vanishing Proofs of Evolution. "As the years passed, mighty floods of new evidence have swept these pillars away! The shaky old bridge still stands as a philosophic or religious belief system held in place by faith, tradition, and the changing new arguments."

For decades the peppered moth was the mainstay of science textbooks. The theory was that, in London, industrial air pollution turned the tree trunks dark and all the light-colored moths were eaten by birds that could see them easier than the dark-colored moths. Thus dark moths proliferated (evolved) and this proved evolution. The "scientist" who discovered this took pictures of moths on tree trunks to prove his point.

It was later discovered that the man who ran the experiment had to paste the moths to the tree trunks to take his pictures. The moths were nocturnal and were asleep in the daytime on the underside of the leaves of the trees. They never naturally rested on tree trunks in the daytime when the birds were awake. Yet, these pictures still appear in modern textbooks as proof of evolution. Heinze points out that all such "proofs" of evolution do not show "transmigration of species" or that the moths evolved into birds or even into butterflies.

In fact, all so-called proofs do not show "uphill evolution" where a simple organism mutates into a more complex one. All such changes (mutations) only damage the organism in some way or leave it the way it was. For example, short legs on a sheep are not an improvement. He only gets caught by the wolf more quickly.

If evolution worked "uphill," then the sheep should turn into a horse so he could escape the wolf more easily. But evolutionists cannot find any uphill evidence. They are forced to try to convince the world that evolution is true by using "downhill" examples.

Heinze lists the most prominent "proofs" used by evolutionists and shows how their credibility has vanished. When your child is given a textbook by a government schoolteacher, you will need information such as found in The Vanishing Proofs of Evolution to help them separate truth from falsehood. It will also help you convince unbelievers that they were special, made by a loving Creator, not descended from some monkey whose ancestor was an amoeba in a primordial pond.

The peppered moths are not evolved, they just changed color. Over time as the air was cleaned up they returned to their normal color. Color changes are perhaps the biggest leap in logic in evolutionary thought. Because moths, cats and mice can change their color over time then it must be possible for men to evolve from apes. Melanism is a microevolutionary change, pure and simple, evolutionists would have you believe that because this happens on the scale then there is no limit to how much random variation can do.

I have been banging heads with evolutionists who insist that the human brain evolved from a common ancestor as the result of natural selection. What they seem to be unable to account for are the dramatic changes in the two lineage specific differences. Sure they can point to microevolutionary changes in bacteria, yeast and viruses, they have no clue how the human brain grew to it present size and structure.

The compared two chromosomes, one from the chimpanzee and one from humans they basiclly control the same things like the brain, nervous systems and the liver. What they found was 68,000 indels, when there was a difference because there was something in one that was not in the other this is called an insertion, when there is something missing in one that is present in the other it is called a deletion, thus IN (insertions) DEL (deletions) or INDELS. Now if we want to be generous and allow 10 million years for this transition that comes to .68 mutations established in genomes every 100 years. This is simply impossible by any stretch of the imagination and yet it is considered a fact, go figure.

Have you heard of the transition of dinosaures to birds? What would have to happen is the below style lungs of mammals have to change from the counterflow type in reptiles. What is even more important is that they have to go from cold blooded to warm blooded, nothing like this has ever happened in nature. Still they want us to accept this as a fact of history and it is absurd. You will find that this holds true for every major transitional, without exception.

Grace and peace,
Mark
