Taking a crack at the Neandertal mitochondrial genome

Taking a crack at the Neandertal mitochondrial genome

A full-length stretch of DNA from a Neandertal mitochondrion has been sequenced. Some are using it to allege that it came from a different species to modern humans. But is that deduction justified?

Breathtaking new frog surprise

Breathtaking new frog surprise

This amazing species of amphibian has been described as ‘primitive’ and ‘an indicator of how evolution works’. But as always, it makes more sense in the light of the Bible.

‘Evolution in a Petri dish’?

‘Evolution in a Petri dish’?

Scientific American claims that some nematodes have evolved in the lab, but the changes observed do not support microbes-to-man evolution at all.

Dawkins and the origin of genetic information

Dawkins and the origin of genetic information

Richard Dawkins, asked for an example of a mutation that can be seen to add information to the genome, failed to answer. A defender claims the question was not legitimate.

Mitochondrial Eve and biblical Eve are looking good: criticism of young age is premature

Mitochondrial Eve and biblical Eve are looking good: criticism of young age is premature

The critic fails to address the issues, using bluff and bluster. The data are consistent with there being one mother of all humans and within the Bible’s time frame.

Chimp/Human DNA—count the differences!

Chimp/Human DNA—count the differences!

The widely-touted 98-99% chimp/human DNA similarities are claimed as evidence for evolution. But as geneticists probe more deeply, things look very different.

Gain-of-function mutations: at a loss to explain molecules-to-man evolution

Gain-of-function mutations: at a loss to explain molecules-to-man evolution

Mutations are supposedly the raw material for evolution. Most are harmful or neutral. But even mutations that result in new functions are really informationally downhill, because they cause loss of specificity.
