Engineered Adaptability and Logic Systems

Image
Darwinists assert that organisms evolve because of unseen, undefined external forces, but the continuous environmental tracking (CET) model demonstrates that the opposite is true. The Master Engineer provided the means to detect and adapt to changes in environments, and organisms have logic mechanisms all the way down to the cellular level, and beyond. Credit: RGBStock / Guenter M. Kirchweger We have seen that living things have built-in logic mechanisms . Like systems built by human engineers, there can be a series of switches. No, we're not saying that horses calculate which fence to jump for better pastures or anything like that. These logic networks can even work at changing the genome. Octopuses can have their RNA molecules edited before they make proteins so they can have short- and long-term adaptations. For that matter, corals edit their RNA, which is problematic for deep time beliefs. There are other examples of internal logic systems as well. In this article, we’

Our Magnetic Field is Fading

Image
As discussed previously, one of the strongest evidences for a young earth is our magnetic field. Scientists know that we have a magnetic field, that it is a planet-sized deflector shield to protect life here, it is decaying at a known rate, and if you extrapolate backward past 20,000 years, life would not be possible because the magnetic field would have been too powerful; it was created recently. You savvy that? The opposite problem is happening, however. And it's worse than previously thought. Image credit:  NASA   (Usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) What you may not hear about is that our defensive shield is failing . Not just reversing itself as indicated in stalactites , but actually failing. As in, "I canna get the shields up, Cap'n. I need more powerrrrr!" Since we need the magnetic field, not just for the operational convenience of satellites and such, but for life itself, this qualifies as a problem if the research is correct. But then,

An Assault on Saltatory Evolution

Image
Way back in olden times, evolutionism was a religion that believed bigger things came from smaller things. Apparently, most evolution proponents did not believe in the slow and gradual processes that Darwin proposed, but instead believed in saltation of one sort or another. The word saltation used to mean a dancing or hopping move, but that has been left behind. Evolutionists and geologists use it now. Saltatory evolution is the idea that instead of gradual progression, evolution happened in quick bursts. Gould and Eldridge suggested a form of this and called it punctuated equilibria. They brought this up because there was no evidence for gradual evolution, so they wanted to substitute something else with no evidence. Makes perfect sense. In an effort to support satatory evolution, researchers were speculating that "disordered" proteins could be a place where it happens. Their assumptions actually worked against their proposition. Instead of supporting evolutio

Lizard Tracks and the Genesis Flood

Image
Both secular geologists and their creationist counterparts agree that most of the layers of the Grand Canyon originated because of water — with the exception of Coconino sandstone. Uniformitarian geologists want to believe that this layer was put in place by wind-blown sand, despite the evidence . Tracks make an impression. Image credit: National Park Service / Sally King (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) Think for a moment about tracks in sand. Someone is taking a horse for a run along the beach, passing the loving couple holding hands. The tracks from the couple are mostly shapeless because they're on the dry sand, and the horse tracks are distinct because they are made in wet sand. Either way, they'll all be gone soon. Drop a golf ball in dry sand, or maybe a baseball, and there's one of many vague impressions. Do it in soggy sand and the print is clear for a while; you can tell what kind of ball was dropped there. Additional evidence for the w

Methane and Faulty Climate Change Science

Image
There are some notable similarities in proponents of molecules-to-merchandiser evolution and anthropogenic climate change, so that is the main reason an article on climate change appears here. One of these connections is the way adherents of each take a cultlike approach to promoting their views through emotional appeal and by denouncing those who offer cogent rebuttals and contrary scientific evidence.  Another similarity is that both evolution and global climate change claim "consensus" as if bandwagon support was actual science. Third, both areas underplay or even ignore important details that should be considered. Global climate change advocates overlook the existence of natural sources of methane — which is "worse" than carbon dioxide.

Some folks even want to vaccinate livestock against the organisms that e

Landforms Indicate Thin Ice Sheets

Image
Secular geologists not only believe that the earth is billions of years old, but that it had dozens of ice ages. Those are easy to invoke since a later ice age effectively obliterates whatever happened previously. Biblical creationists postulate only one Ice Age which was caused by the global Genesis Flood. Landforms in Scandinavia and Britain indicate thin ice sheets, contrary to secular views. Credit: Pixabay / Enrique Lopez I wanted to check out the landforms in Norway but needed to rent a car. My preference was a Fjord Mustang — "That's dreadful, Cowboy Bob!" Oh, I thought you'd take a viking to that one. Moving on... Geologists have ideas about ice sheets in Scandinavia and Britain, but their views and numerous assumptions are not supported by observed evidence. In addition, they rely on the Milankovitch (or astronomical) theory of ice ages and for scare tactics of climate change proponents. They still saddle up those faulty ideas because th

The "Noah's Ark" of Microbes?

Image
Most of us are familiar with Noah's Ark, where God sent all kinds of critters for Noah to keep safe with his family when the world underwent judgment by water. Loosely borrowing from the Bible, scientists are considering a kind of Noah's Ark on a much, much smaller scale: microbes. Anaerobic bacteria image credit: Argonne National Laboratory  ( CC by-NC-SA 2.0 ) (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) Sounds interesting. Not only are microbes important for research, but many are beneficial for the health of various organisms. Let's hope they put safeguards in place so nobody kicks out a power cord or something. (I'm not thinking of an apocalypse, we just don't want them dying and all that effort going to waste.) Interestingly, the scientists are making evolutionary assumptions that "primitive" people in the bush have better, more natural eating habits. However, transplanting their microbes to people in urban areas, for example, could a
