'Evolution' and non-science. A look at bacteria and proteins.

Evolution offends real science. It is word salads, rhetoric and metaphysics.

by StFerdIII

 

“It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong.” Voltaire in "The Age of Louis XIV", 1751. 

Evolution is a philosophical enterprise premised on ‘natural selection’, mutations, time and materialism. Evolution as the only default answer for any biological process, explains precisely nothing. As with ‘climate change’, any activity or result is due to ‘evolution’. It cannot of course explain the creation of life, our world, or why there are 2 million species with such finely tuned and wonderfully designed systems.

 

Darwin’s word salads explain everything and therefore mean nothing:

Did the organism flourish? It was naturally selected of course, given its ‘competitive advantages’.

Did it die out? It was selected to expire and become extinct. It was ‘uncompetitive’.

Did that species thrive and conquer its competitors? It possessed competitive advantages due to mutations and genetic allele shuffling.

Did that species go extinct? It was not competitive enough and the functional accretions of allele shuffling failed in comparison to its competitors.

Why does that fossil body plan exactly ressemble the same creature today? Due to punctuated equilibrium there was a sudden change in structure but given that it was perfectly adapted there ensued stasis and equilibrium. Trust us, this fossil is 14 billion, trillion, brazilian years old.

No facts, no mechanical proofs, just rhetoric. Harvard’s Richard Lewontin (an atheist, materialist) once wrote:

the theory (Darwinism) becomes a vacuous exercise in formal logic that has no points of contact with the contingent world. The theory explains nothing because it explains everything.

Lewontin is spot on.

  

Untestable claims

 

  

As Karl Popper and others have pointed out, a valid hypothesis can be tested and disproven.  This is impossible with the Darwin religion.  Any output, any observation, any fossil, any gap, any biological development or non-development, is supportive of its religious tenets.

  

If you ask a Darwinian “how did the human brain ‘evolve’?”, the answer from the religious acolyte will be something along these lines:

we don’t know exactly how the brain ‘evolved’, but obviously the bacteria to human ‘evolution’ over time, occurred through simple, single functional accretions, driven by natural selection, genetic drift, and mutations which produced a random aggregation of atoms and material to make the brain possible.  The brain exists.  Therefore, evolution is true.’ 

The Darwinian explanation for any biological process is devoid of science and pregnant with rhetoric, tautology, unproven claims and nonsense.

 

None of the above postulations which you find in any evolutionary discourse, is based on science, mathematical probability, logic, observation or common sense.  Therefore, it is simply anti-science to state that bacteria became Bach. Bacteria never change.  Bacteria will always remain bacteria and revert back to a mean.
