Genetics

Abraham Ulrikab and his fellow Inuit were made human zoo exhibits and so were the victims of evolution-fueled racism.

Dr John Sanford defends his book Genetic Entropy against criticisms from theistic evolutionist Scott Buchanan regarding population genetics.

Special guest, former atheistic evolutionist Dr John Sanford provides remarkable insights into new discoveries in genetics that powerfully support a recent creation of humans and no evolution.

What do mice and fruit flies have in common? On the surface, you'd not think much, but geneticists have discovered that some of their genes are practically identical. Discoveries like this are often touted as proof of evolution because the similar genes supposedly show that mice and fruit flies are related.

Population growth calculations are consistent with the biblical truth that everyone on Earth today is descended from the eight survivors of Noah

Is the human genome full of parasites? This might seem like a ridiculous question but some researchers suggest that it is. The human genome project revealed a large number of transposable elements. These DNA segments copy themselves and move around the genome. Some scientists claim they serve no function and have dismissed them as parasitic DNA. Some evolutionary scientists claim that similarities with chimps in these supposedly useless bits prove evolution. But new research shows they have functions. One study revealed that transposable elements activate during embryo development in mice, to control gene expression. Another study revealed they activate in gene dense regions to control gene expression. They are not spread randomly throughout the genome as previously thought. So DNA isn't full of parasites at all, but rather many sophisticated ways to control gene expression.

Dino bone has DNA in just the right positions to be from the dino. But measured rates of DNA decay in bones prohibit survival for 65 million years.

In 2008, the BBC produced a controversial documentary on the harmful effects of pedigree dog shows. According to the documentary, many dog owners are causing dangerous levels of in-breeding; this results in dogs with crippling genetic deformities. One RSPCA vet said, "What I see in front of me is a parade of mutants. It's some freakish, garish beauty pageant."

It's often claimed that evolution is simply change over time. And since change over time can be seen everywhere, then evolution is obviously true. But highly trained creation scientists say there is much more to it than that.

The breeding of pedigree dogs is causing them to suffer great pain. According to Steve Jones, Professor of genetics at University College London, some dog breeds are "paying a terrible price in genetic disease". One award-winning Cavalier King Charles spaniel was even suffering from a condition where its skull was too small for its brain. Following Darwin, evolutionists often claim that selection—artificial or natural—is a creative force that can change microbes into microbiologists. However, in selecting one animal or plant over another, the genes of the non-selected one are lost. So selection gets rid of genetic information; it does not create it. For evolution to be believable, natural selection would need to create new genes with the specifications for all the features that humans have and microbes don't. Natural selection happens in today's world, but it is not capable of changing microbes into mankind.

The human-chimp common ancestor paradigm, which claims a nearly identical DNA content, is far lower than popularly publicized and is based more on propaganda than real data.

Have you ever stared at something and thought about how God created every single atomic particle in it—from nothing— and designed the mechanisms and forces by which the particles would bond together to form materials? The power and intelligence of the Creator are astounding!

The available genomic data shows that the sequence features encompassing the purported chromosome 2 fusion site are too ambiguous to accurately infer a fusion event.

A review of the reported data by evolutionary scientists shows that the sequence features encompassing the purported chromosome-2 fusion site are far too ambiguous to infer a fusion event.

Genome sequencing shows chimpanzee and human Y chromosomes are starkly different

Charles Darwin’s abhorrence of slavery didn’t have anything to do with his theory of evolution.
