Evo Devo? It’s All The Rage But What Is It?

By Malgwyn | February 10, 2010

“In the 1980s . . . biologists discovered that many of the genes involved in embryo development are similar in many types of different animals - from fruit flies to humans. Since differences in development was supposedly due to differences in genes, the similarities seemed paradoxical, but a new discipline arose called “evolutionary development biology”, [...]

Dickens V Darwin

By Malgwyn | December 28, 2009

It is impossible to end 2009 without some mention of Darwin. Not that Dawkins will leave Darwin at his Bicentenary - but Chuck Colson ends 2009 tying two major publications by date - both published in 1859, Darwin’s ‘Origins’ and Dickens’ ‘Tale of Two Cities’. Both authors have a major interest in Thomas Malthus, Darwin [...]

Doubts Over Darwinism Understandable

By Malgwyn | December 2, 2009

In keeping with long held Darwinian belief this evolution website  tells us that:
“Living birds are the most diverse land vertebrates and the heirs of a rich chapter in the evolution of life. The origin of modern birds from animals similar to Tyrannosaurus rex is among the most remarkable examples of an evolutionary transition. A wealth [...]

Christians Give Away 1000s of Darwin’s ‘Origins’

By Malgwyn | November 25, 2009

It had me curious - Christians giving away Darwin’s ‘On the Origin of Species‘? It’s true! Christians are actually giving thousands of Darwin’s ‘On the Origin of Species‘ away at 100 top Universities in the US. No, Christians haven’t become atheists after reading The God Delusion. This is a Christian evangelistic exercise for the ‘Origins’ 150th Anniversary called, [...]

Three Major Objections To Darwinism

By Malgwyn | November 25, 2009

In this paragraph from an article titled ‘Getting over our love for Darwin’  William Dembski  points out three major problems with Darwinism:
1. How did life come from non-life?
2. The Sudden Emergence of body plans in the Cambrian explosion  and
3. The nano-engineering that was not known to Darwin.
Says Dembski, “Intelligent design supporters like me view Darwin’s theory as [...]

Atheist Science Delegates Confront God

By Malgwyn | November 16, 2009

My last post  on Darwin V God reminded me of an anecdote - which I have since read elsewhere but I first heard it at a week-long Christian convention in Toronto in 2000. There were various lectures one could go to and one of the several I chose was to do with faith and science, [...]

Materialialism V Intelligence: Darwinism V God

By Malgwyn | November 16, 2009

“Any creative intelligence, of sufficient complexity to design anything, comes into existence as the end product of an extended process of gradual evolution” something Richard Dawkins emphasises in The God Delusion (p. 31). So, should there be a God, he would have had to have been the end product of the chain of evolution. He [...]

The Cambrian Explosion & Evolution

By Malgwyn | November 12, 2009

With the teaching of evolution now to be imposed from primary level through to senior school in the UK there is an abundance of material becoming available both sides of the Atlantic that counters Darwinism. One website tells us that,
“A new film from Ilustra Media sets forth Darwin’s Dilemma: the astonishingly quick appearance of all major [...]

Was Jesus A Real Person?

By Malgwyn | November 12, 2009

It was not what I expected to see on the Daily Mail Website - and especially on ‘Best of The Web’ section. While not a subject he engages in it is a doubt that Dawkins implies in TGD, ‘which he would, wouldn’t he!’ But in this era of faith and science conflict it is a [...]
