Stasis -- Another problem for evolution from the fossil record

CMIcreationstation 📤 6 years ago 2012-11-05

In nature documentaries and science text books, one often hears about creatures that arrived at their body plan very early in evolutionary history and have not made any real changes since that time, supposedly millions of years ago. These are called 'living fossils'—like the coelacanth and the Wollemi pine. This phenomenon is known as stasis, things staying pretty much the same. And it turns out that pretty much every animal in the entire fossil record appears suddenly and shows this same history of stasis. This was not predicted by evolution!

A more recent and radical theory called "Punctuated Equilibrium" recognises stasis in the fossil record, but requires belief in rapid massive leaps in evolution—an unsubstantiated 'just-so' story.

However, the physical evidence—sudden appearance and stasis in the fossil record—fits remarkably well with the biblical account of a recent creation followed by a devastating global flood, just as the bible describes in Genesis.

Living Fossils: Fossils that debunk evolution (Creation Magazine LIVE! 4-05)

CMIcreationstation 📤 3 years ago 2015-01-08

‘Living Fossils’ are characterized as creatures found in the fossil record (supposedly millions of years old) that are seemingly identical to creatures living today. This is a thorny issue for evolutionists since Darwin proposed his evolutionary hypothesis. The evidence of ‘massive change over time’ is dwindling rapidly. Meanwhile the evidence supporting creation is growing rapidly!

The Creation Magazine LIVE! TV program is a ministry of Creation Ministries International. With offices in seven countries and more PhD scientists than any Christian organization this program shows how the latest scientific discoveries support the Bible and refute evolution and million of years.

Polystrate Fossils -- evidence against millions of years

CMIcreationstation 📤 5 years ago 2013-03-07

Most people are under the impression that coal forms slowly in swamps over millions of years. But this view neglects the testimony of tree trunk fossils that cut across many coal layers, known as polystrate fossils. If these tree trunks were buried gradually over thousands of years the top parts of the trees would have rotted away before they could be protected by sediment.

Derek Ager, Professor of Geology at University College of Swansea recognized this when he wrote of trees buried in coal seams, 'If one estimates the total thickness of the British Coal Measures as about 1,000 m, laid down in about 10 million years, then, assuming a constant rate of sedimentation, it would have taken 100,000 years to bury a tree 10 m high, which is ridiculous'.

He then went on to say, 'we cannot escape the conclusion that sedimentation was at times very rapid indeed'.

So the slow-swamp-story should itself be laid to rest.

This is the greatest discovery in the history of paleontology, Indisputably. Dinosaur soft tissue and dinosaur DNA. The atheistic science world wants you to know nothing about , they wish it weren't true, they don't want it to be true, when they hear it they put it out of their mind. Their problem is, it's proven and factual. Also, we are finding carbon-14 in these samples proving their true age to be well under 57,000 years. You will hear from the scoffers ... it's a hoax, it's contaminated, fraud ... bla bla bla. Please check out the evidence for your self. Another little piece of data that has been swept under the rug is that the Neanderthal DNA has been sequenced. Its closer to man then a chimp is to a chimp within the same species of chimps. Neanderthals' are 100% human. DNA doesn't lie!

Evolution The Evolution of humans documentary 2014

Sam gaffney 📤 4 years ago 2014-01-29

Evolution The Evolution of Shape HD documentary
Evolution is the change in the inherited characteristics of biological populations over successive generations. Evolutionary processes give rise to diversity at every level of biological organisation, including species, individual organisms and molecules such as DNA and proteins.[1]
All life on Earth is descended from a last universal ancestor that lived approximately 3.8 billion years ago. Repeated speciation and the divergence of life can be inferred from shared sets of biochemical and morphological traits, or by shared DNA sequences.[2] These homologous traits and sequences are more similar among species that share a more recent common ancestor, and can be used to reconstruct evolutionary histories, using both existing species and the fossil record. Existing patterns of biodiversity have been shaped both by speciation and by extinction.[3]
Charles Darwin was the first to formulate a scientific argument for the theory of evolution by means of natural selection. Evolution by natural selection is a process inferred from three facts about populations: 1) more offspring are produced than can possibly survive, 2) traits vary among individuals, leading to different rates of survival and reproduction, and 3) trait differences are heritable.[4] Thus, when members of a population die they are replaced by the progeny of parents better adapted to survive and reproduce in the environment in which natural selection takes place. This process creates and preserves traits that are seemingly fitted for the functional roles they perform.[5] Natural selection is the only known cause of adaptation, but not the only known cause of evolution. Other, nonadaptive causes of evolution include mutation and genetic drift.[6]
In the early 20th century, genetics was integrated with Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection through the discipline of population genetics. The importance of natural selection as a cause of evolution was accepted into other branches of biology. Moreover, previously held notions about evolution, such as orthogenesis and "progress" became obsolete.[7] Scientists continue to study various aspects of evolution by forming and testing hypotheses, constructing scientific theories, using observational data, and performing experiments in both the field and the laboratory. Biologists agree that descent with modification is one of the most reliably established facts in science.[8] Discoveries in evolutionary biology have made a significant impact not just within the traditional branches of biology, but also in other academic disciplines (e.g., anthropology and psychology) and on society at large.[9][10]

Lack of evidence for evolution - Fossil record supports creation Dr Don Patton.

JesusLostChildren777 📤 5 years ago 2013-12-06

The fossil record in fact seems to support creation as opposed to evolution. No new phyla have appeared since the Cambrian explosion according to Stephen Gould. Significant change from species to species is not evident from the fossil record. The alternative explanation of punctuated equilibrium utilizes mechanisms that are not observed in fact such a theory may in fact support the creation model more than evolution.

This first installament lays the foundation of all other discussions relating to Creation Science and Evolution. Experts agree that there are only two possibilities as to the origins of man: Evolution and Creation. While evolution is being taught in our schools, there is no mandate that forbids teachers from presenting material on creation science. Science requires all of its theories to adhere to principles of Observability, Repeatability, and Falsifiability. Observations of bacteria mutations seem to support abrupt change rather than slow change over a long period of time. Bacteria today as compared to cells in fossils look very much alike. These cells are far from primitive cells. In fact each bacteria cell contains enough genetic information to fill 1,000 Encyclopedia Britannicas. Since bacteria (a cell that rapidly mutates) today has not changed over time, Darwin's theory is broken.

the laws of thermodynamics and demonstrates that evolution seems to contradict these laws. The 2nd Law tells us that everything tends to get more disorganized whereas evolution seems to depict a system that goes from an unorganized state to a more complex, highly organized state. We observe in nature that all processes are deteriorating. There must be a beginning state, a state from which all things begin to get disorganized. Evolution does not answer that observation, only creation provides any insight.

Fossil "Man" including Rampithecus, Australopithecus have been shown as apes not men. Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon are men. Man is "older" than some of his ancestors, according to the 1470 skull and other fossil finds.

Dating the earth using the geological column uses circular logic according to many experts. Human footprints have been found inside of dinosaur prints in Paluxy, Texas. The fossil record indicates a sudden, universal catastrophe, many contemporary geologists believe. Finally, Dr. Patton discusses alternative explanations to the evolution theory.

Fossil Record: A Problem for Evolution

Northwest Creation Network 📤 5 years ago 2013-07-09

Seminar by John Morris PhD.
Seattle Creation Conference, October 2010
New Life Four Square Church, Everett WA

Description:
Evolution relies on, depends on, and believes in the "evolutionary story" of the fossil record. Several key facts punch holes in that foundation—the extreme rarity of transitional forms, stasis in the record, sudden appearance of complex animal and plant forms, and gaps between species. Discuss the supposed origin of fish, bats, fleas, flies, birds, dragonflies, marine reptiles, whales, and finally humans. Compare the evolutionary scenario to the creation scenario in which each type was created by a supreme Creator separately and fully formed, just as it is found in the fossil record. Conclude with a summary of the real fossil record and its record of death and extinction.

About the Speaker:
Dr. John Morris, is a creation scientist and educator with a specialization in Geological engineering. He is the current President of the Institute for Creation Research (http://www.icr.org), and son of the late Henry Morris whose seminal work is viewed by many to have initiated the modern creation science movement. John joined the faculty of ICR in 1984, and has served as the President since 1996. He has also led numerous expeditions to Mt. Ararat in search of Noah's Ark.

Dr. Morris received his B.S. in Civil Engineering at Virginia Tech in 1969 and his M.S. in Geological Engineering at the University of Oklahoma in 1977. He received his Doctorate in Geological Engineering at the University of Oklahoma in 1980. Dr. Morris can be heard each day on the Back to Genesis radio program. He is the author of numerous books, including The Young Earth. Dr. Morris taught geology at the University of Oklahoma before joining the faculty of the ICR.

T-rex red blood cells

CMIcreationstation 📤 5 years ago 2013-03-05

In the early nineties, researchers from Montana State University made a startling discovery. Inspecting a piece of T. rex bone under a microscope, they could hardly believe their eyes—they could see dinosaur red blood cells!
This discovery prompted lead scientist, Dr Mary Schweitzer, to say:
'It was exactly like looking at a slice of modern bone. But, of course, I couldn't believe it. I said to the lab technician: "The bones, after all, are 65 million years old. How could blood cells survive that long?"'
In a Discover magazine article, Dr Schweitzer explained further her surprise,
'If you take a blood sample and you stick it on a shelf, you have nothing recognizable in about a week. So why would there be anything left in dinosaurs?'
Such a response is understandable, considering that she thinks dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago. But surely such data suggest it wasn't that long ago?

Does the evidence support Evolution?

Find out what evolutionary theory actually predicts about intermediate forms in the fossil record.

Evolution is testable ... human and ape chromosome numbers.

Theories are crucial to science because they provide a coherent framework for making sense out of scientific observations.

An example of such a theory is the Theory of Evolution. Without the theoretical framework of evolution, biologists would be limited to observing living things and noting the similarities and differences between them.

Simple genetics combined with cutting-edge molecular research leads us to a powerful explanation of a large set of biological observations. These observations only make sense using the REAL science of evolution.

Evolutionary Stasis -- Double-speak and Propaganda

If Evolution = Change, and if Stasis = No Change, then what is Evolutionary Stasis? More than just an oxymoron, this meaningless term is another example of the mental gymnastics required to force-fit scientific discoveries into evolutionary history. In this episode Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss why this term is being applied to "living fossils": fossils that are supposedly millions of years old but are virtually identical to the modern living organism.

Peacock feathers make Darwin sick

CMIcreationstation 📤 5 years ago 2013-03-07

How did the peacock get such a spectacular tail? Bothered by this question, Charles Darwin wrote: 'The sight of a feather in a peacock's tail, whenever I gaze at it, makes me sick!'

Some time later, though, Darwin proposed his 'theory of sexual selection' which basically says that the peacock evolved its exotic tail to attract a mate, thus helping it produce more offspring and thus increasing the numbers with attractive tails.

But a recent critical review, published in the prestigious journal Science, has pointed out that the theory has 'fatal problems' and 'needs to be replaced'.

However, other evolutionary scientists have rushed to Darwin's defense; contending that the authors 'fail to provide...a genuine alternative theory'.

But what if there is no evolutionary explanation? Perhaps the peacock tail continually evades an evolutionary explanation because it didn't evolve, but was designed, after all.

Belgian Blue Cows -- evidence of 'de-volution'

CMIcreationstation 📤 5 years ago 2013-10-28

If Arnold Schwarzenegger had a pet cow, I can almost guarantee it would be a Belgian Blue. These cows are incredibly muscled and have very little fat. Many people think of this breed as evolution in action—because a mutation in its DNA has brought about a supposed improvement.

But if microbes really did turn into Belgian Blue cows—which is what evolution teaches—this would require the addition of lots of new DNA information to turn the relatively simple genome of a bacteria into the vastly more complicated genome of a cow.

However, in the case of Belgian Blue cows, we see the opposite, because no new information has been added. In fact, a mutation has corrupted the myostatin gene, which normally stops muscles growing too big—so information has been lost. The cows have lost control over muscle growth. So Belgian Blue cows have devolved, not evolved!
