The Magick and Mystery of Natural Selection

Over at The Question Evolution Project on Fazebook, some folks object to the use of faith as a description for proponents of minerals-to-machinist evolution because they reject God the Creator. However, atheists and evolutionists do indeed have faith.

People have faith, but the object of their faith is the most important factor. Since Darwin's acolytes are substituting faith in the Creator for evolution based on mutations and natural selection, they are mixing pantheism with idolatry. Evolution and natural selection have been elevated into false deities with the abilities to choose and make selections. Indeed, it is treated like magick. While natural selection in its real sense is valid and affirmed by biblical creationists, it is not a creative entity or a force to use, Luke. Darwin hijacked natural selection and gave it his own definitions.

Outlandish claims are being made by Darwinists on pure faith that right environments will trigger innovation by chance.We have two articles to examine here. The second was written as a sequel to the first, so I hope you stick around. First, evolutionists see carnivorous plants and how gene expressions cause leaves to have their particular characteristics. Insert time, unobserved processes, and the magickal mystery of natural selection, and plants become carnivores. Some people call this science and laugh at creation.

Make up a word. Call it Galumph or something. Tell your audience that Galumph is capable of doing magic, like pulling a rabbit out of a hat. All you have to do is provide the right hat, and the rabbit will naturally jump out. If it happens as part of a stage act, that would be entertainment. But if a scientist told you that nature does that all the time, would that count as evidence for the Galumph hypothesis? Would you believe him, just because he is an expert in evolutionary biology?

Watch and see if that is not the trick being played on the unwary in this paper in Science. We’ll point out the hat (the environment). Look for the magic—the claim that if the hat is right, the magic will occur.

The preceding foolishness is not just a wild mustang running on the lone prairie. No, it is far too common. A second article follows up on the first, but this time, selectionists are dealing from the bottom of the Tarot deck to obtain the results they think they deserve. We have seen many times the absurdity of believing that dinosaurs evolved into birds. What about the big problem of going from cold-blooded to warm-blooded? With an imaginary scenario using the scientific principle of Making Things Up™ (similar to when the first life phosphate problem was "solved"), researchers obtained natural selection magick using presuppositions, circular reasoning, and computer simulations. Aren't scientists clever?

It’s easy, Darwinists say, to make a bird from a dinosaur. Just shrink it down. All the requirements will emerge.

Evolutionists believe that birds are evolved dinosaurs, but they have a problem: endothermy. Birds are warm-blooded, and dinosaurs were not. Four Darwinian biologists from Chile believe they have a simple solution: shrink the dinosaur. This is the gist of their paper in AAAS Science Advances by Rezendi et al., “Shrinking dinosaurs and the evolution of endothermy in birds.” It was no small feat to invent warm-bloodedness, they know; but natural selection must have been up to the job, because it happened.
