No Weaknesses in the Theory of Evolution?

by Frank Sherwin, M.A.*

"There are no weaknesses in the theory of evolution." This was the testimony of Eugenie Scott to the Texas State Board of Education in January when the Board was debating new state science curriculum standards.1 Dr. Scott is Executive Director of the National Center for Science Education (NCSE), a watchdog group committed to exposing and ridiculing any group that questions the strange paradigm of Darwinism. Is it true "there are no weaknesses" in this particles-to-people worldview?

Clearly, there is a very real problem with what biological molecules (DNA and proteins) tell the evolutionary scientist, versus what morphology (fossils) says. Evolutionary medical journalist Trish Gura exposed this weakness when addressing a raging debate within evolutionary circles:

It’s funny, I always thought Newtonian Mechanics would be an atheist’s dream. If every particle has a particular position and momentum, the future of the universe would be set in stone. Unfortunately for the atheist’s, quantum mechanics threw a wrench in their dreams.

Wise guy, eh?

I was being deliberately vague.

My 'Doctor of Philosophy' degree is in Mech Engineering.

Anyone who looks the overwhelming mass of scientific evidence that indicates evolution occurred is flying in the face of reality.

Anyone who ties their religious beliefs to ANY kind of science is making a serious mistake.

Science is one subject and religion is another. They operate in different dimensions.

Ummm, I don't have...any...

...try this, get yourself together on the essential link between language and science down first, perhaps then you can move onto your demands to separate religion from science.
