Every once in a while, Darwin's Drones will make simplistic remarks like, "Evolution is true. DNA proves it!" They are probably fans of Clinton Richard Dawkins, who made similar disingenuous remarks himself. Problem is, that tinhorn knows better. PublicDomainPictures / Pixabay.com DNA is amazingly complex, its code is very sophisticated. It has several important functions to not only keep living things alive, but to help us reproduce after our kind. No, DNA could not possibly be made by evolution. Instead, the Creator designed it for very intricate purposes. According to leading atheist Professor Richard Dawkins, the most compelling evidence for evolution is found in DNA. In his book, The Greatest Show on Earth , he states that the DNA code (that is, the DNA language) is the same in all life forms—a fact, he claims, that “shows more clearly than anything else that all living creatures are descended from a single ancestor.” This statement, however, is very mislead

Another fossil of snakes with legs has been found. At first, the response might be, "Big deal", until people realize that the critter had four legs. This has received attention in both creationist and secular circles, especially since it's causing slime-to-snake evolutionists some consternation and dispute. The "image Generator" picture does not do justice to French newscaster Melissa Theuriau. This one is more flattering. The dispute is whether or not the fossil is that of a snake. It has many snake features, but also not  snake features. Although it had legs, don't get it fitted for cowboy boots because those legs weren't walking legs, but appear to be used for grasping. It is considered a terrestrial snake, not a marine one, which adds to difficulties for evolutionists to place it in the proper alleged transitional sequence. But they can't find an evolutionary order for it because snakes were created, they didn't evolve. The four s

Psychology has been around in one form or another for a long time. We wonder why we act the way we do, why tinhorn anti-creationists want to "prove" their superior intelligence by acting like angry children (which includes libel, lying outright, and trolling), why the woman in the upstairs apartment throws leftover chicken on the lawn instead of using a garbage bin, and more. Sometimes, psychology is fun to ponder. Sigmund Freud / Max Halberstadt / Wikimedia Commons / PD Unfortunately, modern psychology is primarily based on materialistic and evolutionary ideas; perhaps that is why there are many schools of thought, and variations on those as well. None of them has the answers, old son. A psychologist present a buffet-style treatment drawn from several sources. Ironically for me, in my apostate time, I benefited from a variation on "probablistic atheist" Albert Ellis' REBT (who said that his views had nothing to do with his therapy methods). Psychology i

Have you ever been riding down Mexico way, maybe in the Chihuahua Desert, when a snake spooks your horse, it rears up, and you get thrown into a patch of bunny ears cactus? Me, neither. That cactus doesn't have the typical long pointy spines that you see in picture books, movies, and television. No, these bad boys are very fine, and come out in bunches at even a light touch. I reckon they hurt real bad, and people need first aid right quick. And yet, this cactus ( Opuntia microdasys ) has inspired biomimetics to help with oil spills. Opuntia microdasys / Wikimedia Commons /  Stan Shebs Scientists studied the special spines on this cactus and how they relate with water. This in turn may help recover spilled oil below the surface of the water. But where did these special spines come from? They are obviously designed for their purpose, just like the spines on other cacti. The following article discusses the technology of the biomimetics idea, as well as how evolution does not e

One trick that evolutionist tinhorns use to dry-gulch creationists is to dismiss their evidence out of hand. Another trick is to misrepresent their research. David Montgomery has done both, showing a lack of integrity, bad scholarship, and plain old laziness. Professor Montgomery is talking from his uniformitarian, naturalistic presuppositions (as expected, everyone uses their presuppositions, after all). But he also uses logical fallacies of insufficient evidence , straw man misrepresentations of both church history and the abundant evidence presented by creationist scientists in his field.  Simply laughing off the creationist view out of hand is ridiculous. Seeing the bad reasoning on his part, however, that dismissal is not surprising. If he took a serious look at the evidence provided by Flood geologists, Montgomery should be able to see that the evidence refutes his uniformitarian views. Recently David Montgomery, professor of earth and space sciences at University of W

Advocates of fish-to-fortune-teller evolution insist that it is supported by predictability. Not hardly. Fact is, when evolutionists are not actually hindering scientific progress by clinging to their paradigms, they are baffled by what they actually observe.  Snow Leopard / Pixabay / Skeeze "Did you see that snow leopard?" "Yeah, I spotted him." "Not funny, Cowboy Bob!" Yeah, I should stop using old jokes. But then, evolutionists should stop riding that worn-out old nag (their worldview) and get a fresh horse (evidence shows creation, not evolution). Speaking of the snow leopard, cats need low altitude because their hemoglobin isn't good at carrying blood. But the snow leopard is way, way up there in low-oxygen areas.  Other research baffling evolutionists include how natural selection actually can impede the formation of new species, bunches of new bacterial phyla gnawing at the evolutionary tree of life, sunflowers are pushing back the

Back when I was going to school (one-room schoolhouse, uphill both ways in the snow, all that kind of thing), we were told in biology class that cells were simple. As science and technology progressed, it turns out that cells are not simple at all. For that matter, even though bacteria are simple, they have more complexity than was expected. Pixabay / beear Bacteria have to adjust to their environments to survive, and scientists who designed a digital version of a portion of a certain metabolism. They use relay switches and other specialized engineering to connect. To cling to evolution despite the complexity of all creatures great and small requires enormous blind faith. Scientists studying bacteria are amazed, but even more amazing is the Creator's mind. He did the precise engineering for not only something that small, but for us, and even the entire universe.  Bacteria sometimes face a rough life. At about a tenth the size of most plant and animal cells, they have no lay

by Cowboy Bob Sorensen What is the attraction to Mars? Maybe people want to go there because the place has atmosphere. Well, there one possibility. Well, it's very thin and mostly carbon dioxide, so that's not it. Maybe it's the long romantic notion of going there. Wild stories about a lady standing on the surface of Mars get people's imaginations a mite agitated. Besides, Venus is so hot and acidic, it melts space probes, so people aren't getting serious notions of visiting there. Panoramic view from Curiosity Mars Rover / Image Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech, MSSS When people develop a skill in spotting logical fallacies , they can find them in many situations. (Someone must have noticed the fallacy of ambiguity when I equivocated on the word "atmosphere" just above.) I was watching a rerun of My Favorite Martian . It was originally aired in October 1963, and called " Man or Amoeba ". You can watch it here if you have a mind to. If so,

Observed evidence from the solar system continues to stymie those who insist on forcing the facts into their old universe paradigm. Studies of Saturn continue to evidence a young solar system, and the old universe gang should realize that they're playing a losing hand. Quadruple Saturn Moon Transit snapped by Hubble Problems include that Saturn should be much cooler if it's billions of years old, making the heat flow "problem" on Enceladus worse with their speculations, inexplicable red arcs on Tethys, a baffling mountain range ridge on Iapetus, and more. Cassini keeps revealing puzzling phenomena in the Saturn system that challenge traditional theories and date estimates. Let’s scour the Saturn system for news, working from the planet outward. Old universe proponents need to throw in their cards and draw a new hand, something that fits the facts better. To read the article, click on " Saturn Surprises ".    

To have a fully automated system such as self-driving automobiles and such, a great deal of programming would be necessary to adjust for various changes in conditions. Even more so for a fully automated flight system; autopilot can only do just so much, and human pilots need to be nearby. A while back, I saw a program about a robot with a human shape reaching down to pick up an object and straighten back up again. If the object was moved even slightly, it was unable to complete its task and substantial additional programming would be required because it couldn't adjust. Similarly, notifications and claims to health insurance companies (as well as letters in the post office) are scanned for OCR , then processed through special software. The machine can only do so much, and it takes a human mind to make corrections so it can be processed more accurately. Some changes just won't work in it.
