EVOLUTION Part 1

           We have come a long way together, billions of years, from the birth of the Universe  to the origin of life.We have looked at light,gravity,dark matter and dark energy.We have examined the formation of the stars and the elements we are all made. We have accumulated evidence against atheistic scientific theory and towards Intelligent Design.
            Next, we will examine, in detail ,the foundation of atheistic belief, EVOLUTION.

            Evolution is defined as the change in the inherited traits of a population of organisms through successive generations. According to current scientific theory  there are three mechanisms that push evolution forward.
            NATURAL SELECTION: By chance, one organism has an advantage for survival over the rest of the population and so has a reproductive advantage over slower runners, thereby passing this advantage on to it's offspring. For Example: a rabbit that is a bit faster than other rabbits and has a better chance of not being eaten by a predator and so will have a chance to mate and pass that speed on to it's offspring.
            There is artificial selection as when a farmer mates plants and animals to produce desirable traits the farmer wants.
            Natural selection is consistent with Intelligent Design as once the process is established, it sustains itself as with the farmer.
            GENETIC DRIFT: is the gradual change in a population due to random events.
For example:75% of a population has the A gene and 25% have the B gene.If the organisms with the B gene do not have offspring,the B gene is wiped out. If only 1/3 of A have offspring but all of B than the A and B gene would be equal in the population.
             You can have endless combinations that will eventually lead to change in the population.This is very mathematical and is also consistent with Intelligent Design.
            MUTATION: We have gone over this in the last couple of chapters but to summarize,Mutation is the main source of change. This to me is another SMOKING GUN and proof of Intelligent Design.
             As we have covered, mutations are the result of mistakes in the DNA sequence. BUT , the odds for random mistakes to eventually lead to intelligence would be like winning the lottery every day.
             The bible of atheistic evolution is Darwin's "Origin of  Species" . We will examine the flaws in this theory. We will examine why, with at least 100 million fossils that are catalogued and identified in the world's museums, the fossil record does not support Darwin's premise.

Mutations (continued)

            I want to explore mutations in DNA further because there is a smoking gun hidden in this information.
Mutations are changes in a genomic sequence, which is the entire hereditary information of an organism.
            In the living cell, all DNA undergoes frequent chemical change, especially when it is being replicated. Most of the changes are quickly repaired. Those that are not result in a mutation.
            Fortunately, mutations are rare, estimated at 1 in every 10 million duplications of a DNA molecule. Our bodies contain about 100 trillion cells, so odds are we all have some mutated cells.
             So to be clear, a mutation is a result of a mistake in the DNA. They are responsible for many genetic defects such as: hemophilia,albinism and certain kinds of cancer and brain malfunction. These mutations can be caused by radiation or copying errors during replication.
              Here's where it gets real interesting. All evolution theory depends on these mutations to occasionally be beneficial. Why, because if these mistakes never happened, we would have never evolved beyond single cell organisms, such as bacteria.
            Are we to believe that random mistakes in the DNA, which have disastrous affects on the host organism , led to wings, eyes and intelligence? How do scientist explain this contradiction? Is it possible for mistakes in the dna replication to somehow evolve complex conscious beings? Does this not PROVE a consciousness intentionally altered the CHANGE in duplication to enable complex life to evolve. For life to evolve as complex as it is due to mistakes in the DNA replication is beyond comprehension . The odds would be tremendous, like winning the lottery every day.
          
         As I am writing this chapter, the Wall Street Journal printed a blog from some comedienne, Ricky Gervais titled "Why I am an atheist", I left a link below. I took the time to read it and he believes that science disproves the existence of God. He ,like many atheists, never talk about the actual science but pick apart religious documents, like the bible, as their proof of atheism. The bible should not be taken literally as it was written, in metaphor, thousands of years ago for uneducated people to understand their world and their place in it. For example: Saying the world was created in 7 days of coarse that cannot be true, there were no days in the beginning. But to say the world was created from the BIG Bang from nothing is a scientific fact. The Bible could have said"Let there be light and let it be both a particle and a wave,also let be mass less and self propelled.
          It is important to note that when scientists write a paper, they cannot mention anything meta-physical in their theories of how nature works.It is purely political. One has to use your own imagination and intelligence to read between the lines of scientific information.

Origin of life part 2 DNA

           DNA, the hereditary material in all living cells that carries the information to duplicate itself.Every human being has their own unique DNA code. The code is made up of four chemical bases:
            G- guanine
            A-aenine
            T-thymine
            C-cytosine.

             The order of the basis determines the information available for building and maitaining an organism. For example: The 24 letters of the alphabet can be rearrange to write everything ever written in English.
            Basically what we are examining is information, the blueprint to make another similar organism. But it doesn't do that by itself. It is necessary for enzymes to exist, various types of proteins that drive the chemical reaction required for a particular action.
             So the enzyme is the worker, taking it's orders from the information on the DNA and performs perfectly what is required of it.
              Now, we have the info and the enzymes that read the info and do what it says. A question that I have and could not find an answer to was: How could the information and the workers evolve seperately from DNA but need each other to replicate life? How does it know to do that?
              A piece of DNA that dictates a particular trait is called a gene.The amount of info in DNA is staggering, a DNA strand is only 10 atoms wide but if you stretched out the strands in your body it would be about 500 million miles long.This is all the information to build your bones,eyes,heart and every other part and function of your body.
             One of the mysterious of science is how  identical cells,with the same DNA, will divide to form your heart while others form the other body parts.
              One theory is that there are switches that turn some genes on while turning some off. Where are these swithches? Until scientist find them, I will submit this as evidence of design.
             You were conceived when an egg from your mother and a sperm cell from your father met to give you 23 chromozones from your mother and the same from your father. This have you your own genetic code. There has never been ,in all history, anyone like you.
              If a problem occurs in the process, the new cells, if they survive ,can cause problems.These are called mutations. Here is a real smoking gun as far as I am concrned: Some mutations are beneficial. This is the basis of all evolution theory, a beneficial mutation that allows an organism to develope capabilities it's ancestor did not posses.
              A mutation is a mistake, a G where it should have been a T. So how can a mistake in the blueprint lead to a benifit in the organism?Can a bunch of mistakesin DNA from the first One cell organism ,all the way to us ,be just mindless luck.
              So, maybe all mutations are not mistakes but an improvement in the design.

A smoking gun!

           Up til now, the evidence I presented can be contradicted by atheists as a series of lucky breaks, no matter how unlikely.But now I think I have found direct evidence of Intelligent Design.
            In the last chapter we covered how the first elements ,hydrogen and helium, which are created in the belly of the first stars that formed from dust and gases, with the help of gravity.The heavier elements such as:carbon,nitrogen,oxygen,silicon,iron and many others are created from the tremendous heat and energy of a supernova.These are stars that blow up in cosmic explosions sending dust, gases made of hydrogen and helium across the universe.This stuff congregates with stuff from other supernovas forming new stars and now the heavier elements are formed. These elements formed the earth and us.In essence we are made of star stuff.
           What a beautiful system and that evidence by itself could point to design.But it really gets weird when we look inside the world of atoms that are the building blocks of the elements ,which are the building blocks of everything we see and touch.It is the quantum world.
            The quantum or atomic world has different laws that govern them. For example, sub-atomic particles can appear in Two different places at the same time.Scientific observations have shown that sub-atomic particles can go from one spot to another, without crossing the intervening space. In the realm of quantum physics, just observing something actually influences the physical process taking place.
            What's going on here? Is this some kind of magic?This is real, I have left links to show I am not making this up. The atomic world is meta-physical. The physical laws of Newton and Einstein do not apply here.
             Where is the smoking gun?The quantum world is the foundation of our world.Could some of these meta-physical properties seep into our Newtonian world.How could this wild ,magic world be our foundation, without some intelligence controlling it?
What is quantum Physics
How did the elements form

A Star is Born!

            We have explored what is known about the "Big Bang" , which is the current scientific theory for the beginning of the Universe and the immediate few seconds after.We have examined gravity and light, which I submit is further evidence of design.
             Our next examination will be the beginning of the stars,galaxies and the basic elements.
              After the "Big Bang" the Universe was homogeneous, as the particles formed from the Bang flew out symmetrically away from each other.Now ,before I go on, let it be clear,if the sub-atomic particles continued this way the Universe would have evaporated.But  a lucky event happened or maybe intervention. Scientific observations reveal that tiny clumps of matter began to form in the early Universe. Scientist have concluded that these tiny clumps of matter started to be attracted together due to temperature differences of less than one millionth of a degree.This caused density variations, which are the seeds of all structure in the Universe, to enable our friend gravity to take over and attract gas and dust.
              In about 200 million years, there was enough matter to clump together that the temperature grew hot enough for fusion to begin and the first stars began to glow and the first element to form ,hydrogen.
              Where did that slight change in temperature,in the early Universe,originate?There is no answer to that, it just happened. Without that slight change of temperature of 1 millionth of a degree, the galaxies,stars, the earth and us would not exist.
               Chaos or design, you decide.

"Let there be light"

    Reference #1  
          The next entity that I am going to get into gives me a headache. Doing research on this subject, I found conflicting data from the scientific community.When you get into quantum physics, I don't think even scientist and physicists understand it fully. I try to interpret to make it simple enough for you to get the basic understanding of another force, like gravity, which we  all take for granted but is extremely complex.That entity is light.
           Scientist have concluded that light is made of something they call a photon.A photon, according to current scientific theory is a particle with out mass. Mass is anything that has matter, something that we can see and touch all the way to the microscopic level.It also acts as a wave and a particle.There is no other entity that has both of these qualities.To give you an example, sound travels as a wave and electricity travels like a particle. Think of a billiard ball as a particle and the ocean as wave. Scientist call this phenomena, wave-particle duality. Scientist always give mysterious forces in nature, that they don't understand ,a name.
            Think about that for a second.. Light is carried by something that doesn't exist because it is made out of nothing. Even electrons have mass, which orbit the nucleus of atoms and carry electricity.
            Light or photons,which ever term you like, travels at the universes top speed limit of 186,000 miles per second and is self propelled. Anything with matter or mass needs some kind of external force to propel it but light propels itself. How does it do that? Scientists say it is self propelled because it has no mass.That's a pretty weak explanation if you ask me. They don't know for sure and theory about light changes every fifty years or so because they have no idea.
             Finally, there is no clear explanation of where photons or light comes from or how it came into existence.It is just there to use as we see fit.
\             More evidence, I say, of intelligence.

Gravity,Dark Matter and Dark Energy

Reference to Dark Matter
            We have covered the common but mysterious force, gravity.There are two more mysterious forces related to gravity.Scientist believe they exist, even though they can't be seen or detected, because of their effect on galaxies and the universe as a whole.
            Dark Matter: Recent observations by scientists has led them to believe there must be way more mass or matter in the galaxies because the known mass that we can see and detect,does not account for the rotational speed of the galaxies or their velocity in clusters.
             In other words, all the matter that can be seen or detected is not enough to keep the galaxies from flying apart.Something else is holding the galaxies together.Scientists are baffled by this phenomena. So they have concluded that there must be something else, that can't be seen and gives off no radiation.. They have concluded that this mysterious dark matter exists because of the gravitational pull it exerts on normal stars and galaxies.They have given this invisible and undetectable force a name: Dark Matter.
            Dark Energy:When studying the universe over the last fifty tears, scientist have concluded that the universe is not only still expanding, but the expansion is accelerating.Nothing that is known accounts for this, as there is nothing but empty space between the galaxies.What is causing this repulsive force that is forcing the outer galaxies of the universe to rush away from each other.Scientist have no idea but have given this force a name: Dark Energy.
            Scientist have separated these forces that react with matter,gravity,dark matter and dark energy. Why are they separated?All three interact with matter but in different ways.What if  they are the same force?What if gravity can change it's strength according to the task it wants to accomplish.  Think of an engine in a car.It powers the wheels, the air conditioner and it generatesw it's own power. Three seperate tasks performed by a single entity.I know, this goes against Einstein's theory of relativity. But maybe gravity is more complex than first thought.
           So, what can we conclude from this?Strange forces ,that cannot be seen or detected with our most advanced  scientific instruments, determines the shape,size and the very existence of the universe we inhabit.
            More evidence that these forces are controlled by a higher intelligence. If it was just random, why does it work perfectly?
             What if dark matter interacted with the earth? We would be crushed. What if dark energy interacted with the earth? We would be torn apart.
            This is further evidence that the universe is not ruled by chaos but by intelligent design. How can it be , that these undetectable , mysterious forces which  work with such precision exist for our benefit by a lucky chance?
             Think about it, these forces have a purpose.
