Revealing Darrel Falk’s Overstatements about Limb Bones in Fish Fins

The interpretation of the results as showing “latent” genetic capabilities has teleological overtones that are compatible with intelligent design. Read More ›

Is the INK4a/ARF Overlap a Settled Example of Poor Design?

Dr. DeBenedictis’s basic argument is that there is a section of the human genome where two genes overlap, both of which are important for suppressing tumors. Read More ›

Giraffe Genome Is Not Evolutionary

Ah, the giraffe. Darwin put his mechanism at war with Lamarck’s to explain the giraffe’s long neck. Evolutionists are still battling over the question. Read More ›

Zmirak: “Darwin Addles the Mind”

The taproot in question is Darwinism, which “addles the mind” of the Woke elite, the “Ivy-schooled primitives,” whom Zmirak compares with cargo cults. Read More ›

A New Interview with Wolf-Ekkehard Lönnig

To those who say ID advocates are only critical of Darwinism because they are not sufficiently versed in genetics, I have a two-word reply. Read More ›

Vindicated But Not Cited: Paper in Nature Heredity Supports Michael Behe’s Devolution Hypothesis

The literature is looking at the same data that intelligent design proponents are looking at, making similar observations, and asking similar questions. Read More ›

A Mousetrap for Darwin, and Another for Lenski

"There have been no mutations...identified that appear to be on their way to constructing elegant new molecular machinery of the kind that fills every cell." Read More ›

Behe’s New Book Dispels Malaria Evolution Fog

Evolutionists say malaria’s ability to evolve resistance to the antimalarial drug chloroquine is powerful evidence of unguided microbe-to-man evolution. Read More ›
