The theory of Evolution

e components of a specific protein. Relationship is established by the number of changes required to convert a protein o!f one organism in to the corresponding protein of another - the fewer changes, the closer the relationship. This comparison can also be made using genetic material. There is NO evidence on the molecular level for evolution. Each of the many categories of organisms appear to be equally isolated. For example, by isolating one protein (cytochromec) from a snake and comparing it with 47 different life forms, it was shown that the rattlesnake was most similar to man, not to any other reptile(based on that one protein).(Gray,1980). If evolution had occurred, that contradiction, and hundreds of similar ones, could not have been found. Dr. Colin Patterson (1981) was the Senior Principal Scientific Office0r in the Paleontology Department at the British Museum of Natural History, and he said that "evolution was a faith," and that he had" been duped into taking evolutionism as revealed truth in some way; that evolution not only conveys no knowledge but seems somehow to convey anti-!knowledge, apparent knowledge which is harmful to systematic [the science of classifying different forms of life]." (Patterson, 1981). The renowned Carl Sagan tells us that the genetic information contained in EACH CELL of the human body is roughly equivalent to a library of 4000 volumes. It is difficult to believe that random selection could produce those amounts of meaningful information. Each DNA cell requires 20 different types of proteins; but the proteins can not be produced EXCEPT at the direction of the DNA cell. This "manufacturing system" had to have come into existence simultaneously with the DNA cell. Chemistry Professor John Walton(1977) of Scotland (from whence came the now-famous sheep-cloning) said "the origin of the genetic code presents formidable unsolved problems. The coded information in the nucleotide sequence is mea...
