Does Covid-19 Provide Evidence of Evolution?

Posted on Dec 2, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Mutations have occurred causing the new strains of the COVID-19 Virus. “Changes like this are expected. This does not mean the virus is ‘evolving’. In fact, over time viral infectivity should wane. As each viral strain in circulation picks up more and more mutations, it should become less and less robust. This is the essence of genetic entropy and we saw it happen within the human H1N1 virus. Yet, the process took decades in H1N1 and SARS-CoV-2 has only been...

Still Not Enough…

“Mutations happen. This is a given fact. Species change. This is also a given fact. Yet, none of this explains the origin of life, the complexity of life, etc. In other words, ‘change over time’ is fully part of the creation model. While it is true that ‘change’ is necessary for evolution, simple change is not enough. They need enough change over enough time to explain the common ancestry of all life. Yet, there is no mechanism to produce the vast amount of new...

Genetics Points to a Young Earth!

Great Summary: “The new Y-chromosome genetic data brings a huge challenge to the secular science community. While discussing the ramifications of this, Jeanson recently stated: “I’m anxious to see how the evolutionists try to dismiss this second, independent line of genetic evidence for the young-earth timescale. Not only do they have to explain why the data contradict evolution, they have to also explain why the data are such a tight match with the predictions...

Not Enough Mutations for Evolutionary Time!!

“They noted that if humans have actually been around for several hundred thousand years or more, according to RAO they should have accumulated 8 to 59 times the amount of mutations that we currently observe in Y chromosomes worldwide. Quite notably, they empirically proved that we can only observe about 4,500 years of mutation accumulation in all of human paternal ancestry, as documented in the record of the human Y chromosome.” Read more here:...

A Starburst in the Middle East…or Out-of-Africa??

Posted on Nov 11, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

A Starburst in the Middle East rather than the Out-of-Africa idea of the Origin of Human Cultures! Is there any historical account that would describe a dispersion of people groups from the Middle East??? “Quite notably, they discovered that both the maternal and paternal unrooted phylogenetic analyses gave very similar results. The first key similarity observed was that the branching pattern displayed in both DNA datasets indicated a large expansion of human...

Genetic Evidence for the three daughter-in-laws of Noah!!

“Jeanson showed how major mitochondrial DNA lineages followed a maternal ancestry back to the three wives of Noah’s sons (figure 2).22” “Figure 2. An unrooted mitochondrial DNA tree representing 369 individuals of different ethnicities. The large block arrows point to the three major branch nodes believed to correspond to the wives of Noah’s three sons (from Jeanson22)” Read more here:...

Genetic Studies BETTER Match Young Earth Creation Predictions!!

Who said Creationists can’t make predictions?? “Figure 1. Predictions of mitochondrial DNA diversity for the evolutionary model and the young-earth creation model compared with the actual diversity observed. As can be seen, the actual empirical data matches the creation model (from Jeanson22).” Read more here:...

5-10 Thousand Not Hundreds of Thousands!!

Posted on Nov 2, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Here is great Genetic Evidence that the human race all traced back only several thousand years not hundreds of thousands as assumed by evolutionary models!! “Research by both secular and creation scientists indicates a date of modern human origins of not more than 5,000 to 10,000 years (reviewed by Tomkins in 2015).12 For the purposes of this current review, I will briefly summarize these earlier findings before describing more recent efforts that confirm and...

If you are an evolutionist, consider these:

Posted on Oct 6, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

“All three disciplines [Biology, Geology/Paleontology, and Cosmology] are replete with evidence that is inconsistent with the [Naturalistic Evolutionary] paradigm. For example, evidence from genetics clearly shows that mutations, rather than creating new and ever-more complex DNA as required by evolution, cause continuous degradation of DNA. Geneticist, Dr John Sanford, calls this genetic entropy and it eventually causes extinction. This happens so fast that humans...

Similarity Maybe, But Big Differences!

Posted on Aug 31, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

“If human similarity to apes is evidence that an apelike creature evolved into man, why aren’t the vast differences between man and ape accepted as evidence that man did not descend from apes?” In other words: Humans are similar to apes = Evidence of Evolution Humans and apes are very different = Evidence of Different Creations I think the second evidence may be stronger! Check out these shocking differences! “…The human nose is totally different from that of...

“If ENCODE is right, evolution is wrong.”

Posted on Aug 17, 2021 in Creation Nuggets | 2 comments

If Evolution has occurred due to mutations occurring randomly over long periods of time, then the human genome would just be filled with extra stuff – “Junk DNA”. The Encode Project “undermined the “junk DNA” myth and simultaneously fulfilled an ID prediction: that non-coding parts of the genome would prove functional. Junk-DNA proponents like Dan Graur were upset at the time, admitting as Jonathan Wells reported, “If ENCODE is right, evolution is wrong.”...

“Striking” – Complexity and the Incredible Functional Nature of DNA

“Striking” – Complexity and the Incredible Functional Nature of DNA is Evidence of an Intelligent Designer!! “Skipper says it was “striking” to find that they were able to assign a “biochemical function” to 80 percent of the genome: striking, because “not such a long time ago, we still considered that a vast proportion of the human genome was simply junk.” Birney comments, “It’s very hard to get over the density of information” in the genome. They found places that...
