Experimental example:

Since evolution depends on massive experimentation by the gene pool to accidentally invent superior modifications that give survival advantages to the million to one “lucky chimpanzee typed” DNA sequences, every living organism that has the luck of a bad sequence will to varying degrees die off.

Statically those two extreme rule sets encompass the entire theory of the evolutionary theroy. But as there is no Creator allowed in the equation. The overwhelming majority of DNA experiments that have no direct effect should be in evidence as the theroy postulates survival must blindly choose.

Look in nature, clearly there is NO evidence of a massive amount of useless random vestigial DNA experiments hanging off of every organism as DNA mindlessly experiments trying to stumble onto a software upgrade.

Experincial evidence 2:
As modern science grows in understanding we now know that even the tiniest error in a single DNA sequence can disrupt many interlinking genetic processes. This clearly demonstrates that DNA instability is suicide for organisms.

If the postulations of 18th century science were correct in that organisms were experimenting with DNA gene sequence modifications, it would cause a far higher than a thousand to one still birth ratio. That is 1000 still births to a single live birth. Genetic suicide.

In the 18th century we had a simplistic viewpoint of machines being built from plans. In the 21st century we understand software, whereas the plans are of an active process.

The difference is obvious with a little thought. If your plans are describing simple machine parts, a bigger leg or a smaller eye, so what. But if they are all describing a biochemical whole, then a bigger cog, or a crossed wire and the machine as a whole is not different IT’S FUNCTION and it’s relation to different FUNCTIONS is different. Just like software, a single error in sequence and the whole inter relationship fails.

The entire system must function for the machine to biochemically bootup. Any sequence deviation kills the organism at a million to one rate. DNA stability is critical to survival, indeed the interlocking biological interdependence serves as a checksum to defend the DNA from functional errors being passed on.

In short, what we now know about DNA and how it functions precludes virtually any chance for evolution.

The heck with transitional fossils, where are the five legged blind dogs or feathered snails? There is no evidence of experimental organisms in nature.

DNA is inherently stable, not inherently unstable in nature.

And might I add an early century maxim, you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink.

With this more modern one: A wise man learns from a fool, but a fool cannot learn from a wise man.

Science can be argued, but faith is immutable. Evolution is based on faith, not science or it would have been forgotten a hundred years ago because of science.

[[Look in nature, clearly there is NO evidence of a massive amount of useless random vestigial DNA experiments hanging off of every organism as DNA mindlessly experiments trying to stumble onto a software upgrade.]]

bingo- well put

[[As modern science grows in understanding we now know that even the tiniest error in a single DNA sequence can disrupt many interlinking genetic processes.]]

Which is exactly why i keep stating that it would take billions of impossible ‘tries’ to get the right combinations of mutations to advance a species beyond it’s own kind- These impossibilities are not just slight improbabilities, they are infact impossibilities- and these impossibilities are for just one species kind- let alone many many species kinds that all had to defy impossible odds billions of times themselves-

Monkeys banging on keyboards for an infinite amount of time might produce Shakespeare- however, that still falls within the probability limits- mutations advancing a species beyond it’s own kind is so far outside the upper probability limits that it’s absolutely impossible for evolution to have occurred

[[The heck with transitional fossils, where are the five legged blind dogs or feathered snails? There is no evidence of experimental organisms in nature.]]
the3 best they can come up with is ‘feathered dinosaurs’ which had modified scales, and not true feathers- but of course they get around this fact by claiming the scales or ‘protofeathers’

Well thought out analysis- well done

And suddenly grasses appeared. We know that scientifically that particular event did occur. It is also written in scriptures that suddenly the grasses appeared. I think Evolution did occur but at some point the Almighty knew that he would need a Mary and so he started the lineage through Adam and Eve. Notwithstanding there were other evolutionary beings on the earth at the same time.

and that’s my theory...

Then there is Catastrophic Evolution, a theory not mentioned here and seldom discussed, but recounted in many folk tales and US Indian stories.

THe T of E does not hold that man came from monkeys. It claims common ancestors for man and monkeys, and all other primates. Tree shrews are the earliest known fossil evidence.

You just know that one of the monkeys will be a wise-ass. Type out “Call me Ishmael. “ and show it to his neighbor. Get the giggling going and frustrate the monkeys that take it seriously Eventually it just turns into a poop-flinging brawl.

Adaptation is NOT evolution.

Changes within a species is not true evolution.

Evolution is the changing of one species into another, which DOES NOT HAPPEN.

Genesis 1

21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.

24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.

26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

27 So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.

Read a bible. You won’t have to read very far.

Genesis 1 New International Version (NIV)

The Beginning
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

That would be the “beginning” of the bible.

Genesis, the FIRST book of the bible

Genesis 1, the First chapter of the bible

Genesis 1:1, the first verse of the bible

God must have thought, let’s get this one right out there.

No, your example is full of simple error- time alone would ruin/destroy both the the animal, the typewriter ( where did that come from) and the previous work, not even counting on the fact that someone with higher intelligence provided the typewriter, paper and etc to the chimp in the first place. You bought the farm on that one, but don’t let anyone tell you otherwise though.

Let’s say that time and elements notwithstanding, your chimp pounds the keys forever- all you would get is random series of letters continuing on and on. You would need some millions of random occurrences strung together w/o error in one series. So a million million chances to be wrong, only one chance to get it(all) right. You still “believe” that?

The fact that the bard had intent and intelligence to produce multiple separate works of literature made it so, not that he was a moronic chimp pounding away randomly for some time. The comparison is fraud.

The God I know and love has no limitations. The Bible I know and love was divinely inspired, but written by man.

” Notwithstanding there were other evolutionary beings on the earth at the same time.”

THERE ARE NO EVOLUTIONARY BEINGS! GOD created EVERY SINGLE BEING.

The “THEORY” of evolution is just that, a theory. A fantasy, a made up idea. Wishful thinking. A dream. Not REAL.

The reason that they can not find “the “missing” link” is because THERE ISN’T ONE!

They will NEVER find it because it doesn’t exist, never existed.

For evolutionists, the determination of “where do we come from” starts with...

1. It can’t be God, there is no God, so let’s move on to everything else.

“Most mammalian genes are essentially interchangeable.

That was not predicted, but is considered one of the strongest pieces of evidence for common descent.”

Or evidence for common creation?

Your statement makes your POV, mine makes my POV.

Just because life forms that functions similarly does not mean that they are related originally. Just like the fact that autos have similar fuel requirements, does not mean they are made at the same factory.

Of course once one injects an original act (like either “God created” or “life appeared once, randomly in a swamp”, all observations must return to that origin.

I chose long ago to accept the premise that I am not an accident and just an unusual animal, but that I have purpose and a future rather than that I am no different than a single celled creature or any other.....

“evidence” keeps getting disproved like Plitdown Man...

That's what you've got? A 105 year old hoax to counteract more than 150 years of evolutionary science?
