• Buried Treasure Found Under the Ocean: DNA

  By David Coppedge The most information-rich medium known to man has been found in abundance under the sea, but man didn’t put it there. In “Ancient DNA Found Hidden Below Sea Floor,” Traci Watson described for Science Now what deep-sea explorers have found in … Continue reading →

  

• Long Complex Gene Tails Defy Evolution

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. If the picture of complexity regarding how genes are controlled and regulated in the genome was not complicated enough, a new study has increased this paradigm to an unprecedented level.1 Recently reported research describes massively long gene … Continue reading →

  

• Detecting Panic in Evolution Articles

  By David Coppedge Some claims by evolutionists sound cool, calm and collected until you see them in context. An example appeared in Science Daily and Astrobiology Magazine – a claim that life may have originated in salty, icy stalactites under the sea ice.  Need … Continue reading →

  

• Bug-Eye Camera, Fly Robot and other Bio-Inspired Tech

  By David Coppedge Incredible advancements in technology are coming from the imitation of nature, but engineers cannot yet attain animal performance. Look like a bug:  “New Camera Inspired by Insect Eyes,” announced Science Now.  If you thought insects with their compound eyes … Continue reading →

  

• How Similar Are Human and Ape Genes?

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. In the past, evolutionists have tried to prove human evolution by comparing only similar DNA segments between humans and apes—disregarding the non-similar DNA regions.1 Many evolutionary studies have involved the selective use of protein-coding segments in the … Continue reading →

  

• The Unpredictable Pattern of Bioluminescence

  by Brian Thomas, M.S. Three of my daughters took a night swim in a bioluminescent bay during a mission trip to Puerto Rico in 2012. They splashed water on their heads and watched their hair glow green from countless tiny … Continue reading →

  

• Latest Attempt to Explain Homochirality Underscores the Problem

  By David Coppedge Finding that some stars emit circularly polarized light will not help explain why life uses only left-handed amino acids. Periodically, another attempt is made to explain the one-handedness of life’s amino acids.  The problem for materialists, explained … Continue reading →

  

• Complex Bioengineering in Blooming Flowers

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. Have you ever wondered how a plant knows when it’s time to flower? How does it know it needs to bloom and reproduce to perpetuate itself for future generations? Unlike animals, plants cannot get up and … Continue reading →

  

• Beta-Globin Pseudogene Is Functional After All

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. One of the key arguments of human evolution has now suffered the same fate as many other debunked icons of the errant paradigm of “junk DNA.” In this case, it is new research related to the … Continue reading →

  

• Yeast Survive as They ‘Fail to Optimize’

  by Brian Thomas, M.S. The word “fail” usually implies that something went wrong. To fail a school exam decreases the chances of passing the course, and failing a physical exam portends poor health. But when scientists studied yeast and bacteria … Continue reading →

  

• Circular RNAs Increase Cell Bio-Complexity

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. If the regulatory picture of the genome was not complicated enough, now scientists have discovered yet one more amazing level of bio-complexity that involves a whole new class of molecules in the form of RNA hoops, … Continue reading →

  

• Scientific Organizations Promote Leftist Social Causes

  By David Coppedge What on earth does a science journal have to do with abortion or gay marriage?  Some editors and reporters are actively pushing for social revolution. In “A Pope for Today,” Nature’s editors hoped that newly-instated Pope Francis would … Continue reading →

  

• Transposable Elements Are Key to Genome Regulation

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. In the age of ‘omics’ research, such terms as genome, transcriptome, and proteome now describe aspects of vast molecular networks in the seemingly infinite complexity of how DNA functions in the cell. Adding to these areas … Continue reading →

  

• House Mites, Dollo’s Law and Reverse Evolution

  By R. L. David Jolly Have you ever heard of Dollo’s Law?  In 1893, paleontologist Louis Dollo penned the controversial hypothesis that evolution is a one-way street and once an organism evolves specialized traits, it cannot return to its original … Continue reading →

  

• The junk DNA myth takes a well-deserved hit

  A review of The Myth of Junk DNA by Jonathan Wells Reviewed by Jeffrey Tomkins The history and status of the myth One of the greatest evolutionary frauds of recent times is the myth that eukaryotic genomes, particularly the human genome, are largely … Continue reading →

  

• The Resurrection of ‘Junk DNA’?

  by Nathaniel Jeanson, Ph.D., and Brian Thomas, M.S. Evolutionists are protesting. What has them so agitated? The results of the most in-depth human genome study to date, called the “ENCODE” project, revealed that 80 percent or more of the human genome appears … Continue reading →

  

• Triceratops Horn Soft Tissue Foils ‘Biofilm’ Explanation

  by Brian Thomas, M.S. Decades ago, when researchers began publishing their discoveries of transparent, floppy tissue with recognizable intact cells inside dinosaur bones, plenty of shocked evolutionists disputed their results. After all, nobody knew—and still nobody knows—a process whereby flesh … Continue reading →

  

• Reading between the lines

  by Don Batten I visited China in 1983, at the time when the cult of Mao was just beginning to loosen its grip on that country. However, Communist party cadres still very much controlled everything, and the minders for my visit … Continue reading →

  

• Engineered Protein ‘Evolution’ Proves Biological Complexity

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. Researchers recently announced the first systematic laboratory-induced mutation of successive amino acids in a nearly complete simple bacterial protein.1 The results demonstrated how protein chemistry and structure, in even the most simple of life’s proteins, are irreducibly … Continue reading →

  

• This “Evolution” Is Not Darwinian

  By David Coppedge Some things in nature get attributed to Darwinian evolution, but might be better seen as manifestations of design or other alternative, non-Darwinian mechanisms. Deterministic Evolution In “Predictable Bacterial Diversity,” Nature highlighted some experiments that showed bacteria converging on the … Continue reading →
