Is Evolution A Theory finds this recent article from the Jerusalem Post very interesting. The article entitled, “COULD ISRAELI RESEARCH ALLOW HUMANS TO CHOOSE THEIR CHILDREN’S SEX?” states the following:
“Israeli scientists have demonstrated the ability for mammals to mate and produce only female babies. A similar system based on identical principles could produce only males.”
Truthfully, Is Evolution A Theory knew this was coming. How? Sorry, no special insight or knowledge. It was just a matter of time. It won’t be long until genetic scientist will be able to order up blue eyes, blonde hair and olive skin (or whatever you desire).
Do you remember a very famous announced on February 22, 1997? Just 22 years ago, Dolly the sheep was cloned. See Science Daily article here. So, 22 years after cloning a ewe from an adult sheep science can select the sex of your child. What will genetic scientist be able to do 22 years from today?
Now, as an engineer and project manager who is familiar with the science and physics that goes on behind the scene, I would like to make two points on why I find this article so interesting. It relates to the average person who is a materialist or an evolutionist.
- Beginning: Materialist and evolutionist believe a living cell (organic life form) with all of its complex coding (DNA, RNA, etc.) came into existence on its on (primordial soup) and from inorganic matter (cooled earth rocks). But, all genetic engineers can do is edit given genes. Scientists cannot create a living cell; only edit an existing cell.
- Natural Selection: Materialist and evolutionist believe that natural selection (environmental adaptation) can not just change DNA, RNA, etc. but improve it to a more complex creature. But genetic science demonstrates that gene editing requires advanced genetic techniques to modify genes. Scientists cannot create a new creature; only exit an existing cell.
How logical is it to believe that intelligent beings (us humans) with microscopes, existing living cells, and advanced techniques and tools can only edit a cell’s DNA but rock, water, and lightning (reference to Miller experiment) can create a membrane bound unit that contains the molecules of life? Even more amazing is that all living things are composed of a single cell which is often a complete organism in itself. (see “What is a Cell” article at Nature.com.)
Is Evolution A Theory? Could a cell be created as Miller and Ury proposed? Let’s answer this question with a Law of Nature, the Law of Sufficient Reason.
Given all of genetic engineering’s tools, techniques, and knowledge, science can only edit genes; it is reasonable to state that more tools, techniques, and knowledge is needed to create genes. Rocks, water and lightning are sufficiently inadequate to create life, so the Theory of Evolution is a failed theory. The Laws of Nature prove it.
