Darwin Devolves: The New Science About DNA That Challenges Evolution

Natural genetic engineering seems to have a big chicken-and-egg problem—it needs complex systems to make complex systems.

If it weren’t for mathematical reasoning, modern science wouldn’t be possible.

From the dawn of life to the present, beneficial degradation has been a constant background—there’s no way to avoid

Darwinism’s icy grip on modern intellectual life is based on shoddy philosophy, not science.

It’s strange but true that to a very large degree Charles Darwin insisted the variation that fed natural selection be completely random not because of any actual scientific evidence it could suffice, but because of the theological argument from evil.

Contrary to Richard Dawkins, the ability to reason is indeed the greatest possible power of life. The only greater gift would be the ability to reason better.

As Darwin often used it, the term natural selection really meant natural selection acting on random variation

Gratuitous affirmations of a dominant theory can mesmerize the unwary. They lull people into assuming that objectively difficult problems don’t really matter. That they’ve been solved already. Or will be solved soon. Or are unimportant. Or something. They actively distract readers from noticing an idea’s shortcomings.

As valuable as they might be in describing necessary conditions for the success of some evolutionary strategies, economic theories are nowhere near sufficient to explain how complex molecular machinery arose.
