Evidence for God from Science

:| I don't like the sound of that. Is it just romantic lonliness, or lonliness in general? Hmm... I hope you aren't lonley man, remember you always have the Church family. God bless! lol.. You are living in a dream world. Pray you never have to take the red pill. The fallacy of church "family&...

they will most likely continue to adapt independently and may well end up unable to interbreed. Most likely? Is that a scientific term? That is a faith statement. No, it's a statement of probability. what if these fruit flies diverged and could never breed again. So, what. What new information was ...

A vestigial organ is not necessarily useless. It just has a different and unrelated function compared to homologous organs. A good example would be the eyes of the blind cave fish. You could argue that the eyes act like skin, preventing the external environment from entering the inside of the fish. ...

The article talks about the origins of animals, not of life itself. Curiously, I wasn't able to find the original article. The link you gave suggests that the article was published in the July 27th edition of PNAS. However, there is no July 27th edition of PNAS. I also checked the most recent editio...

What does the word "evidence" mean to you exactly? I have already provided evidence that supports front-loading. These very recent peer-reviewed published papers are incompatible within a Darwinian framework , they indirectly support a front-loading hypothesis. Even if said tests are perf...

Very good explanation. Excellent! Now let's put it into practice. In recent years, the genomes of hundreds of species have been sequenced, and many more species have at least some genes sequenced. What's more, this information is freely available on the internet. This allows you to present direct e...

As for your experiments, they seem reasonable but they are not by any means the fastest. Well, that depends on how you conduct the experiment. The most straightforward way of doing it would be simply to observe the mutation rate over time. For fast growing bacteria this is certainly feasible, but f...

You have not really engaged any of the merits presented. On the contrary. Please see my post regarding Trichoplax, your earlier supposed example of useless genes. I presented a reasonable hypothesis that is supported by some evidence from the literature. Hand waving is not how science works! What I...

From the paper you linked to: It is possible that our assays were not able to detect dramatic phenotypes that under a different setting, for instance, outside the controlled laboratory setting, would become evident. Moreover, possible phenotypes might become evident only on a longer timescale, such ...

I agree that putting this type of animal back to its "optimum" habitat would be unrealistic after a knockout experiment has been performed. But more realistic studies with Mice have shown exactly this, large regions of coding genes (which had other coding potential) were removed, tests we...

If those genes have underlying critical function that could easily be tested by knockout experiments. No it can't, and here's why. When cells are grown in the lab, they are grown under optimum conditions. This is unavoidable, because there is no way to simulate all of the stresses that an organism ...

For starters: Trichoplax adhaerens barely qualifies as an animal. About 1 millimeter long and covered with cilia, this flat marine organism lacks a stomach, muscles, nerves, and gonads, even a head. It glides along like an amoeba, its lower layer of cells releasing enzymes that digest algae beneath...

I'm not sure what scientists or creationists believe about this, but I was curious: How far does the universe go? Does it have an edge, or something? If so, what lies beyond that edge? Or maybe the universe is constantly going on. I'm not a scientist, but I do know that the universe is in a state o...

It gets worse. Each new "missing link" that is found would create two new gaps in its place.
