A close look at the fallacy of the Evolutionary theory

        Every day a child comes home, sometimes with excitement with their newly taught information of  'how we got here'. Our schools teach, that the creation of man is the result of a misunderstood science, or as my wife puts it, "from the goo, through the zoo, to you". It absolutely amazes me how much emphasis is placed on the theory of evolution compared to the thinking of creation from God. There is a refusal to consider anything else about our origins except the fallacy of the evolutionary theory.

        The writings here were inspired by several recent books and a video I saw by Dr. Del Tackett (president of the Truth Project- thetruthproject.org) who gives a wonderful lecture in one of his series on these false theories. Also, because of  the recent teachings I see going on with children in my own family and friends, I feel compelled to write this page. Our children are bombarded daily with the presentation of these unproven theories as facts and it pains me to see that God, or the notion of a creator (or what scientists refer to as "intelligent design") is left out of their teachings.

        This page has two intents. First to show, when talking to those who refuse to believe in a God who created everything that it is wise to;

                                    
"Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him." Prov. 26:4

and secondly and most importantly;

                                    "
The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork." Ps. 19:1

        There are several people in the scientific arena that have given their theories as to the origins of the species and I will quote some of them here. (Remember, to simplify, a theory is an idea about something that is neither accepted nor rejected until proven true or false by fact, data or irrefutable evidence.)

First here is one of my favorites; stated by a British Molecular Biologist and physicist;

".....the first living cell must have been transported to earth from some other planet outside our solar system".
(Francis Harry Compton Crick)

Interesting! My only response is "Scottie, beam me up, there are no intelligent life forms down here (sorry, I couldn't resist)

Then there's Carl Sagan in his series "The cosmos" where he states; "We will follow the evidence no matter where it leads us." Except (as Dr. Del Tackett puts it)
"when it leads us to a creator, then we just can't go there."

        Because they can not agree on exactly how creation started, some in the scientific arena state or imply everything began randomly or creation started by itself. An American Scientist gives a statement that shows how blind and disconnected this so called scientific theory is. I am referring to what is called Spontaneous Generation. Spontaneous Generation is the theory that life forms from nothing. In the above mention lecture from Dr. Dell Tackett, he gave a simple example of Spontaneous Generation. He spoke about how when we saw maggots form from rotten meat, it was thought that they formed by themselves. Of course, we now know this theory is false. This scientist's name is George Wald who stated;
         
                                      "Most modern biologists having reviewed with satisfaction on the downfall of the spontaneous generation hypothesis,
                                       yet unwilling to accept the alternative belief in special creation, are left with nothing. I think a scientist has no choice
                                       but to approach the origins of life through the hypothesis of spontaneous generation."

In my opinion, Mr. Wald's statement is sad, because what is being said here is that although the theory of Spontaneous Generation is not true, the scientist who can not believe in a creator is left with no choice but to believe in this theory anyway.

        But the most predominant player in the theory of Evolution with his wittings on on the 'Origin of Species' is Charles Darwin. We have all heard that name. He was  English Naturalist who theories on creation by means of what he refers to as 'Natural Selection', is what has and is being taught in schools all around the world. It is his theories and his own words that will be looked at here for you to decide for yourself how you should respond to anyone, especially your children about this subject. We will also look at other dominant figures in the scientific community to see what they think on these conflicting theories and each others ideas.

        To start, reprinted here are some interesting words from Charles Darwin that are very important to understand;

                                   "If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous
                                     successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."
(
cited in Michael Behe, Darwin's Black Box)

What Darwin is saying here is, if it could be demonstrated that any complex organ that has formed, did so by any other means other than a evolving over time, his theory would 'absolutely break down'. The reality is, there is no proof that anything that has been 'formed' has any evidence of multiple progressions in the fossil records. Darwin himself questioned his theories and stated;

                                  "The number of intermediate varieties which have formally existed on earth must be truly enormous. Why then is
                                   not every geological formation and stratum full of such intermediate links? Geology assuredly does not reveal
                                   any such finely graded organic chain; and this perhaps is the most obvious and gravest objection which can be
                                   urged against my theory."
(cited in Pandas and People)

Darwin continues to question the accuracy of the geological records in his writings on the 'Origin of Species', published in 1859. Here is a particular interesting statement by Darwin;

                                  "The geological record is extremely imperfect and this fact to a large extent explains why we do not find intermediate
                                   varieties, connecting together all of the extinct and existing forms of life by the finest graduated steps. He who rejects these views on
                                   the nature of the geological record, will rightly reject my whole theory."

I truly wonder if in the teachings of Darwin's theories, these thoughts and concerns he expresses in his writings are being pointed out to the student. I know for a fact there are school books out there that only quote portions of his writings such as;

                                 "Analogy would lead me one step farther, namely to the belief that all animals and plants are descended from one prototype."
                                 
(Origin of Species 1859)

        Lastly, I present a few other prominent people in the scientific community that give there comments on Darwin's theories. The first  from David Raup. The director of Field Museum of Natural History. He states;

                                "We now have about 120 years after Darwin and the knowledge of the fossil record has been greatly explained. We now have a
                                  quarter of a million fossil species but the situation hasn't changed much. The record of evolution is still surprisingly jerky and,
                                 ironically we have fewer examples of evolutionary transition than we had in Darwin's time."

S. Lovtrup (Darwinism: The refutation of a myth) wrote;

                        "I believe that one day the Darwinian myth will be ranked the greatest deceit in the history of science. When this happens, many
                                 people will pose the question; How did this ever happen?"

Also stated by an evolutionist and paleontologist of the London Museum of Natural History, Collin Patterson gives us these thoughts;

                              "I will lay it on the line- there is not one such [transitional] fossil for which one could make a watertight argument."

                                         (cited in Pandas and People)

        
In the opening quote from Darwin above, he stated that if it could be demonstrated, that any complex organ that has formed, did so by any other means other than evolving over time, his theory would 'absolutely break down'. Michael Behe (in Darwin's Black Box) states in part;

                            "To Darwin, the cell was a black box and its inner workings were utterly mysterious to him. ........The black box
                             has been opened and we know how it works...... after 40 years, we can say Darwin's theory has 'Absolutely broken down'."

        One has to realize that there is 'order' and not random chaos in the universe. There is 'intelligent design' that shows in the functions of a human being. Scientists will sometimes even concede to a hint of 'intelligent design'. Charles Darwin did that when he spoke about the marvelous details of the human eye. He said;

                          "To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting
                           different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have  been formed by
                          
natural selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest degree."
 
        As you have seen from the logic from those closer to these things than myself, it is evident that Carl Sagan's statement about "We will follow the evidence no matter where it leads us" although undeniably brings us to a creator, some just can't seem to accept it. Yet the evidence does lead us to this conclusion. In my opinion, the above information and denial of the reality of God  proves what is in a book that was written over 1500 years ago;

                          
"But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know
                            them, because they are spiritually discerned."
1 cor. 2:14


     
If none of the above convinces you that God is the creator in what is referred to as "intelligent design", then consider this enlightening story;

                                                                                   The  Amazing Camel and It's Creator
                                                                                            (From Moody  Press)

                                                                If you ever doubted that God  exists, Meet the Very Technical, Highly
                                                                Engineered Dromedary Camel. When I'm hungry, I'll eat almost  anything-
                                                               A leather bridle, a piece of rope,  my master's tent, Or a pair of shoes.
                                                               My mouth is so tough a thorny cactus  doesn't bother it. I love to chow
                                                               down grass and other plants That grow here on  the   Arabian  desert
                                                               I'm a dromedary  camel, the one-hump kind That lives on hot deserts in
                                                               the Middle East.

                                                               My hump, all eighty pounds of it,
                                                               Is filled with fat-my body fuel-not water as  some people believe.
                                                               My Mighty Maker gave it to me  because
                                                               He knew I wouldn't always be able to find  food
                                                              As I travel across the  hot sands.
                                                              When I don't find any chow, my body  automatically
                                                              Takes fat from the hump, feeds my  system,
                                                              And keeps me going strong.
                                                              This is my emergency food  supply.
                                                              
                                                              If I  can't find any plants to munch, my body uses up my hump.
                                                              When the  hump gets smaller, it starts to  tip to one side.
                                                              But when I get to a nice oasis and begin to eat  again,
                                                              My hump soon builds back to  normal.

                                                              I've been known to drink twenty-seven gallons of  water in ten minutes.
                                                             My Master Designer made me in such a fantastic  way that
                                                             In a matter of minutes all the water I've  swallowed
                                                             Travels to the billions of microscopic cells  that make up my flesh.

                                                             Naturally, the water I swallow first goes into  my stomach. 
                                                             There thirsty blood vessels absorb and carry it  to every part of my body.
                                                             Scientists have tested my stomach and found it  empty
                                                             Ten minutes after I've drunk twenty  gallons. 

                                                             In an eight hour day I can carry a four hundred  pound load
                                                             A hundred miles across a hot, dry  desert
                                                             And not stop once for a drink or something to  eat.
                                                             In fact, I've been known to go eight days  without a drink,
                                                             But then I look a wreck.
                                                             I lose 227 pounds, my ribs show through my skin,
                                                             And I look terribly skinny.
                                                             But I feel great!
                                                             I look thin because the billions of cells lose their water.
                                                            They're no longer fat. They're flat.

                                                           Normally my blood contains 94 percent water,  just like yours.
                                                           But when I can't find any water to  drink,
                                                           The heat of the sun gradually robs a little  water out of my blood.
                                                           Scientists have found that my blood can lose up  to
                                                           40 percent of its water, and I'm still  healthy. 

                                                           Doctor's say human blood has to stay very close  to 94 percent water. 
                                                           If you lose 5 percent of it, you can't see  anymore; 10 percent, you can't 
                                                           Hear and you go insane; 12 percent, your  blood is as thick as molasses 
                                                           And your heart can't pump the thick stuff.  It stops, and you're dead.

                                                           But that's not true with me.
                                                           Why?
                                                           Scientists say my blood is  different.
                                                           My red  cells are elongated. Yours are round.
                                                           Maybe that's what makes the  difference

                                                           This proves I'm designed for the  desert,
                                                           Or the desert is designed  for me.
                                                           Did you ever hear of a design without a  Designer?
                                                         
                                                           After I find a water  hole,
                                                           I'll drink for about ten minutes
                                                           And my skinny body starts to change almost  immediately.
                                                           In that short time my body fills out  nicely, I don't look skinny anymore,
                                                           And I gain back the 227 pounds I  lost.

                                                           Even  though I lose a lot of water on the desert,
                                                           My body conserves it too.
                                                           Way in the beginning when my intelligent  Engineer made me,
                                                           He gave me a specially designed nose that  saves water.
                                                           When I exhale, I don't lose  much.
                                                           My nose traps that warm, moist air from my  lungs
                                                          And absorbs it in my nasal  membranes.

                                                          Tiny  blood vessels in those membranes take that back into my blood.
                                                          How's that for a recycling system? Pretty cool,  isn't it.
                                                          It works because my nose is cool.
                                                          My cool nose changes that warm moisture in  the air
                                                          From my lungs into water. 

                                                          But how does my nose get cool?
                                                          I breath in hot dry desert air,
                                                         And it goes through my wet nasal  passages.
                                                         This produces a cooling effect, and my nose  stays as much as
                                                         18 degrees cooler than the rest of my  body. 

                                                         I love to travel the beautiful sand  dunes.
                                                         It's really quite easy, because
                                                         My Creator gave me specially engineered sand  shoes for feet.
                                                         My hooves are wide, and they get even wider when  I step on them.
                                                         Each foot has two long, bony toes with tough,  leathery skin
                                                         between my soles, are a little like webbed  feet.

                                                        They won't let me sink into the  soft, drifting sand.
                                                        This is good, because often my master wants me  to carry him
                                                        one hundred miles across the desert in just one  day.
                                                        (I troop about ten miles per hour.)

                                                        Sometimes a big windstorm comes out of  nowhere,
                                                        bringing flying sand with it.
                                                        My Master Designer put special muscles in my  nostrils
                                                        that close the openings, keeping sand out of my  nose
                                                        but still allowing me enough air to  breathe. 

                                                        My eyelashes arch down over my eyes like  screens,
                                                        keeping the sand and sun out but still letting  me see clearly.
                                                        If a grain of sand slips through and gets in my  eye,
                                                        the Creator took care of that too.
                                                        He gave me an inner eyelid that  automatically
                                                        wipes the sand off my eyeball just like a  windshield wiper. 

                                                        Some people think I'm conceited because I always  walk around
                                                        with my head held high and my nose in the  air.

                                                        But  that's just because of the way I'm made.
                                                        My eyebrows are so thick and bushy
                                                        I  have to hold my head high to peek out from underneath  them.
                                                        I'm glad I have them though.
                                                        They shade my eyes from the bright  sun.

                                                        Desert  people depend on me for many things.
                                                        Not only am I their best form of  transportation,
                                                        but I'm also their grocery store.
                                                        Mrs. Camel gives very rich milk
                                                        that people make into butter and  cheese.
                                                        I shed my thick fur coat once a  year,
                                                        and that can be woven into cloth.
                                                       A  few young camels are used for beef,
                                                       but I don't like to talk about that.

                                                       For a  long time we camels have been called
                                                       the "ships of the desert" because of the  way
                                                       we sway from side to side when we  trot.
                                                        Some of our riders get seasick. 

                                                       I sway from side to side because of the way my  legs work.
                                                       Both legs on one side move forward at  the same time,
                                                       elevating that side.
                                                       My "left, right left, right" motion makes  my rider feel like
                                                       he is in a rocking chair going  sideways.

                                                      When I  was six months old,
                                                      special knee pads started to grow on my  front legs.
                                                      The intelligent Creator knew I had to have  them.
                                                      They help me lower my 1000 pounds to the  ground.

                                                      If I  didn't have them,
                                                      my knees would soon become sore and  infected,
                                                      and I could never lie down.
                                                      I'd die of exhaustion.

                                                      By the  way,
                                                      I don't get thick knee pads because I fall on my  knees.
                                                      I fall on my knees because I already have these  tough pads.
                                                      Someone very great thought of me and knew I  needed them.
                                                      He designed them into my genes. 

                                                      It's real difficult for me to  understand
                                                      how some people say I evolved into what I now  am.
                                                      I'm very technical, highly engineered dromedary  camel.
                                                      Things like me don't just happen.

                                                      They're  planned on a drawing board
                                                      by Someone very brilliant,
                                                      Someone very logical.

                                                      John  1:1 says,
                                                     "In the beginning was the Word.
                                                      And the Word was with God,
                                                      and the Word was God."
                                                     The Word means  "logical, intelligent One

    All this created by chance? Any intelligent mind would have to say no and come to the realization that ......................
GOD IS A REALITY!
