Science: Scientific Law Disproves "Evolutionary Dogma"
by Ken Clark
Many of the most productive scientists, including most of the founders of
the major branches of modern science, have been creationists. Isaac Newton,
Johann Kepler, Blaise Pascal, Galileo, Michael Faraday, Samuel Morse, Gregor
Mendel, George Washington Carver and Louis Pasteur were creationists.
Many regard Isaac Newton,
a creationist, as the greatest scientist ever. Historically, it has been the
Western, Christian world that has given rise to the greatest scientific
achievements.
God commanded Adam to
"subdue" and "have dominion over" the creation. This creationist mindset has
proven to be the scientifically fertile one, not the mindset of atheism or
Eastern pantheism.
Scientific laws exist
because there is an intelligent Creator.
America was founded on
creation. The Declaration (of Independence) states: "We hold these truths to
be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are the
pursuit of happiness."
The amazing complexity of
life demands a Designer. Dr. Michael Denton, an Australian research
molecular biologist - not a creationist - in his book "Evolution: A Theory
in Crisis" (Adler & Adler, 1986) shows serious problems for evolution. In
his chapter, "The Enigma of Life's Origin," he states, "Molecular biology
has shown that even the simplest of all living systems on earth today,
bacterial cells, are exceedingly complex objects.
"(Although) the tiniest
bacterial cells are incredibly small, weighing less than 10 12 (a
trillionth) grams, each is in effect a veritable microminiaturized factory
containing thousands of exquisitely designed pieces of intricate molecular
machinery, made up altogether of one hundred thousand million atoms."
Evolution fails under
statistical modeling. In his chapter, "Beyond the Reach of Chance," Denton
says, "The possibility of life arising suddenly on earth by chance is
infinitely small. To get a cell by chance would require at least one hundred
functional proteins to appear simultaneously in one place.
"That is, one hundred
simultaneous events each of an independent probability which could hardly be
more than 10 20 (one chance in 10 followed by 20 zeros), giving a
maximum combined probability of 10 2000 (one chance in 10
followed by 2,000 zeros).
Denton says, "There are
only 10 70 atoms in the entire observable universe." Evolution
flatly fails mathematical modeling because there are simply not enough atoms
in the universe to accommodate the infinitesimally remote odds of evolution.
One in 10 2000
is so small you cannot physically achieve such probability with only 10
70 atoms. And just remember, this is only for one cell.
Creation science is not
religion, but real, valid and powerful evidence.
The Second Law of
Thermodynamics is the premier law of all science, according to Albert
Einstein. This Entropy Law turns a flat thumbs down to evolution.
All physical things wear
out, run down, grow old, decay, become extinct - exactly opposite to
evolution, which says complex things made themselves. No wonder evolution
has never been actually observed!
It's illogical to think
you can get truth from science. Science is based on observation and
experimentation. But scientists are always discovering something new that
forces them to overhaul their theories.
Scientists never do know
how much they don't know that may affect their theories. You can only
discover the truth if you have all the facts.
It is a moral outrage and
child abuse to indoctrinate children into evolutionary dogma when the
extreme complexity of life, statistical modeling, and the Second Law of
Thermodynamics and many other evidences show it to be false and bogus. It
does not violate a Supreme Court decision to teach students these facts of
scientific truth.
They have every right to
a fair, balanced hearing of all scientific evidence.
I can look back and see
how public schools blind-sided me. It is the school's duty to accurately
inform. It is the individual's right to his or her choice of religion.
