Evolution is a Fact #1 - Protein Functional Redundancy

by cofty in

i intend for this to be one of a series of bite-sized ops on the evidence for evolution.. introduction to dna genes are sequences of dna made up of words (codons) each of which are three letters (bases) long.

there are only four letters in the genetic alphabet (acg&t) each word or codon is the recipe for one amino acid.

there are 20 different amino acids in living organisms.

But even the great Dawkins will not take on the lowly high school science math teacher Kent Hovind.

You know Ken Hovind has absolutely nothing to lose by boasting he will debate Dawkins.

Who is Kent Hovind? A tax evading convict who spews a lot of nonsense.

Dawkins can only damage his reputation by debating Hovind. Not because he has anything to fear, he has debated much more cogent opponents. By debating Hovind he automatically gives him some form of credibility. Why do that at all?

But you know who has taken up the challenge? YouTube's Aaronra.

He has publicly challenged Hovind to a debate anywhere and anytime. And Hovind knows this very well and is very quiet.

But it's equally foolish not to acknowledge that all statements are subject to revision, including scientific ones. History is replete with examples. We don't need to be experts in evolutionary biology to know that.

Slimboyfat, let me put in the first revision. Just because information gets refined and knowledge expanded, it does not mean that old information becomes totally invalid. Newton is just as valid today as three hundred years ago. Sure its been refined, but it has not been discarded. Darwin made many conjectures about evolution, and he has turned out to be more right than wrong on many occasions.

Watch Hovinds videos and quit dancing around with me.

I've watched them all. What would you like to discuss about them?

And as Cofty pointed out: Please give me a reference for where... Hovind refutes Protein Functional Redundancy.

James Brown, you wrote:

I have to stress once again your assumptions and conclusions based on those assumptions are theoretical not scientific

Its not theoretical that it takes the long way round. That is a matter of anatomy. If it was designed it must have some reason should it not? After all, man was created perfect wasn't he?

James, not even a hypothesis?

Anatomy and Physiology was so intense I/ you / one could not do much more than remember all the body parts, cells and their functions.

Oh I had many friends who became doctors and we had plenty of time to discuss biology.

But now that you know the anatomy after all that remembering, I'm sure you have a good answer why God decided to take the long way round instead of the direct route.

I suggest you watch Hoviinds video and quit dancing with me.

I've watched them all. By God have I watched them all.

The most brilliant thing Ken did was when he asserted that the red shift was due to God pulling the entire universe out (expanding it) from the position of earth within 24 hours. A master stroke.

I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night and still have begged for more.

In premed physiology you have to recognize every part of the body forward, backwards and sideways and explain what it does.

Exactly James Brown. The anatomy of the vas deferens never made you wonder?

If not, why not?

Please send Dr. James Gill this:

You're sure he's not an doctor of Homeopathy or Iridology?

Ok James Brown,

You were pre-med right?

Explain the following in the light of creation please:

I know a doctor and he does not accept evolution.

But James, the Pope believes in evolution. Is he not a Christian?

I personally once knew a hamster that could count up to ten... true story.
