The Danger of Darwinian Medicine

Image
If you ride up on the hill and look down at the bigger picture, you should be able to see that Darwinism interferes with medical science. Enthusiasts try to convince us that evolutionary thinking is important , but it is harmful to medical science. Consider what has been provided to us.  Modified from a photograph from  PIXNIO Typically, purveyors of minerals-to-mycologist evolution believe in time, chance, random processes, mutations — and supposedly no design (unless they appeal to pantheism and Gaia ) and no Creator. By presupposing materialism, Papa Darwin's version of natural selection, and evolution, we have been subjected to the foolishness of vestigial structures , so-called junk DNA , and more. Indeed, it is best to realize that the Master Engineer put things in their places for specific purposes.  Real medical science has little use for evolutionary thinking, but secularists want to increase their input. Just because scientists do not understand their function do

Evolution and the Coronavirus Pandemic

Rahm Emanuel said, "You never let a serious crisis go to waste". That is, politicize it and work it to your own advantage. Leftists politicians are known for not only using and exaggerating crises, but have manufactured them. Believers in universal common descent are using the coronavirus (COVID-19) to further their agenda.

Naturalists not only reject the Creator, but they are interpreting data from their presuppositions and personal preferences. Indeed, they even try to pull the wool over our eyes by claiming that evolution is useful ! The coronavirus is a serious health threat (see " Coronavirus: A Biblical & Practical Perspective "), but when assets of the Darwin Party claim that evolutionary thinking

Carnivorous Plants Trap Evolutionism

Image
Despite television, movies, and animated shows, the title of  carnivorous plants  is a bit misleading. When I  did a search  for whether or not the things eat animals, results went all the way up to the kingdom level; most carnivorous plants eat insects and only a few eat small mammals. Pitcher plant image by  Elizabeth Hertel  / US National Park Service Usage does not imply endorsement of site contents Many of these plants attract insects with nectar, then they spring their traps. (The New Jersey Pitcher Plant is very brazen, shouting out, "Hey bug! I got yer nectar  right here !") These plants do not rely on prey for nutrients (they do not have a successful capture rate), but it does help photosynthesis in some cases. The digestive enzymes that convert insects to food are used for other things, such as drawing nutrition from "leaf litter" that falls down and other sources. It is interesting that they have symbiotic relationships with other organisms — some

Dinosaur DNA: More Bad News for Deep Time

Image
New links added at the end of the post in mid-March 2020.  The atmosphere at the Darwin Ranch could accurately be described as subdued. Creationists have been trying to keep them honest, but evolutionists insist on their materialism and deep time beliefs despite science and logic. They have been faced with numerous refutations across the board, but what has been most devastating involves dinosaurs. Soft tissues were found that could not possibly have lasted for millions of Darwin years. Evolutionists then had to deal with intact skin, blood vessels, and proteins. Desperate rescuing devices ensued . Katie, bar the door! Now they are faced with dinosaur DNA, and not just dubious fragments. DNA cannot last for huge amounts of time. By the way, where did Jack Horner get his doctorate? Just joshin' with y'all, he doesn't have one. The secular science industry is committed to naturalism, and this makes it more difficult for them to find alternative explanations and more exc

More Gaia Paganism in Evolution

Image
Humans are designed to have a knowledge of God, and this manifests itself in many ways as they try to worship something, but they suppress the knowledge of the true God (Rom. 1:18). Instead, other things are worshiped — even atheists are essentially religious . Evolutionists also express their false religion. Gaea  (another spelling of Gaia) by Anselm Feuerbach, 1875 In Jeremiah 10:3-5, God is telling Israel that pagans cut down trees, carve out idols, decorate them, and nail them down. These things that they made are the objects of their worship. In a similar manner, many evolutionists worship nature . They also acts as if evolution was an intelligent being, making decisions and causing organisms to evolve.  A variation on that is when natural selection is also deified and the religion is selectionism. This is another example of the incoherence and irrationality of atheism, as natural selection was developed by creationist Edward Blyth . Creationists accept natural s

Our Engineered Immune System

Image
You may remember from school days that the heart pumps blood, it circulates through our systems, gets oxygen, and the cycle continues. That is the simplest example, but there is far more involved. As science and technology develop, medical science is learning more about how our immune system operates. Credit: Pixabay /  Arek Socha Although from a secular source, there is important information in " Five Reasons You Don't Need to Panic About the COVID-19 Coronavirus ". Both red and white blood cells have special functions to protect us from diseases and infections. We have a passel of microbes living in us and our system has to distinguish between the good ones and those that don't have our best interests at heart (so to speak). Throughout life, bodily systems learn and adapt, and even become more efficient at dealing with them. In fact, they learn. Interestingly, vaccinations help our immune system learn, and it can adapt to such intruders and those that are s

Faulty Ice Core Ages and Tephra

Image
As several linked articles on this site alone have revealed, secular scientists put the spurs to the narrative and make unwarranted assumptions. In this example, a key role is played by tephra —  "Is that the old video game with the colored blocks that drop down, Cowboy Bob?" No, that's Tetris.  This is about volcanic ash and debris called tephra.  It can be found in ice cores. Large tephra block in the Antarctic Credit: Wikimedia Commons /  Andrew Shiva  ( CC by-SA 4.0 ) Believers in deep time think that layers retrieved from ice cores are strong evidence for their views. However, they have dismissed facts based on their assumptions. (Interestingly, Bill Nye inadvertently supported creationists when he admitted that Greenland ice layers are not necessarily annual.) Layers of tephra were found in ice cores, but secular reckoning is ineffective when these are analyzed. Creation science and the Ice Age due to the Genesis Flood presents a far better explanation of
