Non-Evolution for Sulfur-Cycling Bacteria
Proponents of molecules-to-marine biologist evolution have everything covered. Too much. Evolution explains everything, and when cornered on poor science or faulty logic, they have a prairie schooner-full of rescuing devices and fudge factors. (Papa Darwin has a fudge factory, and if you get the golden ticket, you may be able to go on a tour.) Evolution is likened to an irresistible force based on environments. Except when it isn't. If something doesn't evolve over a few zillion Darwin years, it is called "stasis", and proves Darwin's "null hypothesis". Such is the case with sulfur-cycling bacteria.
Sulfur-cycling bacteria process dissolved sulfur in surrounding water, and can live in environments that are free of oxygen. Since there is no sign of evolution over all that alleged time, evolutionists fall back on the claim of stasis. It's a win-win conjecture, but is unscientific and explains nothing, despite claims of obedient secular science media and some scientists. Biblical creationists, however, are not surprised by lack of changes.

In spite of evolutionary expectations some bacteria have not changed for billions of years. A formation in Western Australia claimed to be 1.8 Ga old contains fossilized sulfur-cycling bacteria. These bacteria metabolically are fueled by seawater sulfate, meaning they can live in an anoxic zone. They are very similar to those found in another formation that is dated 2.3 Ga old. Contrary to evolutionary theory the sulfur-cycling bacteria are essentially identical with modern types:To find out the reason for all the excitement, click on "Sulfur-cycling bacteria 1.8 billion years old the same as today".
