CYKIAE (Christ You Know It Ain't Easy)

There are two world views about how life began. The first is the materialistic view of the world – the no God view. Crick’s central dogma which I summarised in Part 15 of this series in these words, is a key part of the modern world of the atheist scientists.

"DNA makes RNA makes protein makes us." In 1970, Jacob wrote that an organism is the realization of a "genetic program" written in DNA sequences.

But if the ...

Jonathon Wells, in his book Zombie Science, wrote:

… the central dogma continues to mislead scientists and non-scientists alike. True, some DNA sequences encode some RNAs, and some RNA sequences encode proteins, but in general the central dogma is false. DNA does not contain the genetic program for an organism, and DNA is far from being the secret of life. Continued faith in it is rooted in materialism.

The fault doesn't lie with...

The childlike simplicity offered by some of the evolutionary scientists about DNA and the characteristics people have because of having a certain type of gene, is becoming clearly an illusion. But it’s one that’s still promoted.

John Lennox, in his book God’s Undertaker, tells us: Indeed for many years molecular biologists have regarded it as a 'central dogma', as Francis Crick called it, that the genome accounts completely ...

Those oh so primitive views of life that the scientists of Darwin’s day had, had gradually evolved, yes that’s the right word, to the point where it was about to tell the world that life had emerged from matter – and that God didn’t matter! Oh happy day.

From 1835, when Charles Darwin was travelling around the world on HMS Beagle, and then from 1842 when he put pen to paper to outline his theory, up until 1859 when he finally published his book, On the Origin of Species the two most important scientific developments that he really needed to know about, wouldn’t happen for over another 90 years. Materialist scientists, atheist, saw those developments as decisively ending all of this...

Stephen Meyer, in his book, The Return of the God Hypotheses wrote:

By the late 1960s, molecular biologists knew where the information for building proteins was stored and even how that information was used to build them. But they did not know where that information came from. I call this mystery "the DNA enigma," a mystery that is closely related to the question of how the first life on earth originated.

And later in his b...

Richard Dawkins, in his 1986 book, The Blind Watchmaker wrote:

What lies at the heart of every living thing is not a fire, not warm breath, not a 'spark of life'. It is information, words, instructions. If you want a metaphor, don't think of fires and sparks and breath. Think, instead, of a billion discrete, digital characters carved in tablets of crystal. If you want to understand life, don't think about vibrant, th...

Evolutionary biologists. Did you know that sometimes even Homer nods? That’s an expression my amazing high school teacher used to say. I don’t think it’s a common expression today. So let me explain it to you.

In 1999, the editor of the prestigious scientific magazine Nature, Henry Gee wrote "it is effectively impossible to link fossils into chains of cause and effect in any valid way. To take a line of fossils and claim that they represent a lineage is not a scientific hypothesis that can be tested, but an assertion that carries the same validity as a bedtime story — amusing, perhaps even instructive, but not scientific."

Thanks to our discovery of DNA, RNA and all things associated with them, and what we know of how it operates, we now know that every living system, just like your computer, is powered by its own operating system to power what it is and what it does. Until that discovery we used to think that our universe was made up of just matter and energy. Now we know living things, besides energy and matter, also need information. A new species...

Darwin admitted that if an irreducibly complex form of life was found, then his Theory of Evolution would be proven to be a failure. Richard Dawkins agreed, although he lifted the bar that Darwin had set. Perhaps Dawkins was trying to keep his life’s work of promoting the still unproven theory of evolution alive.  Today Darwin’s Theory of Evolution has remained unproven and increasingly dubious because over the 175 years since his ...

In my previous programmes I’ve looked at serious problems with Darwin’s still unproven Theory of Evolution. Problems that he knew about when his book On the Origin of Species was published. Here’s another one. The late Sir Charles Darwin wrote in his book:

 If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely bre...

I think I’m probably right in assuming that most of you have heard of the Big Bang. It says that first there was nothing and then it exploded and became our universe. But have you heard of the Big Life Explosions. They happened mainly in the Cambrian period - 542 to 488.3 million years ago. But they also happened in other periods as well. When they happened winged insects, birds, flowering plants, mammals, and many other groups app...

DARWIN WROTE IN THE FIRST EDITION OF THE ORIGIN OF SPECIES that North American black bears had been seen "swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water." What did this have to do with the subject of his book? "Even in so extreme a case as this," Darwin continued, "if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in...

Now I’m about to enter into a discussion of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. I’ll be putting material that doesn’t agree with that theory, and that’s very brave of me. Maybe insanely brave. Maybe mad.

John Lennox, in his book, God’s Undertaker explained why recounting this story:

A leading Chinese palaeontologist Jun-Yuan Chen ran into this problem when visiting the USA in 1999. His work on the remarkable discoveries in Chengjiang of st...

The first great fall of man, that we know about, happened with Adam and Eve. Man was expelled from paradise, the Garden of Eden. Paradise was lost.

But then thousands of years later, in 1859, the world, looked at from the point of view of the British Empire, was living in another golden age, perhaps in a new Garden of Eden, as if we’d somehow managed  to find our way back into Eden. But then, perhaps even more startling, a new revel...

Carl Sagan was probably the best known scientist in the West in the 1970s and 1980s. In 1980 his 13 part series, Cosmos, aired and was a spectacular hit. In the very opening of the series he told his audience this:

So according to Carl Sagan, the cosmos is all that is, or ever was, or ever will be. To elaborate he meant that the universe was made only from things in our universe -- matter and energy. Explicitly he was saying that th...

A great thinker said that the the medieval mind was broader than ours because they believed that the ultimate realities were outside place and time and that man could commune with them through mystical experience and after the death of the body. Who was it that said that?
