		<description>Regarding Einstein&#039;s quote I have clearly mentioned &quot;in a different context&quot; - which is about my reproducing Einstein&#039;s quote here equating it to the mentioned scenario - assembling of chemicals to form primitive constituents of organic life.

So though it is Einstein&#039;s quote used in a different context, I use it here in this context to indicate the randomness of the events.

Coming back to evolution - where will you draw the line about where the origin of life ends and evolution starts? Single Cell prokaryotes are said to have been EVOLVED from protobionts. Now protobionts are chemicals ie organic molecules surrounded by a membrane-like structure. And before them it is purely a chemical world!</description>

		<description>&quot;Even the evolution of a simplest of the simple 
proteins from random combination of amino acids is not possible, even 
looking at it as a probabilistic chance in terms of earthâ€™s age! Not 
possible even in terms of universal age known to us! 
Then all these 
proteins have to assemble together, form sub cellular entities, then 
cells.. looks like proteins were already intelligent Not possible. Then 
DNA, genes, replication, repair mechanism, translation No way possible 
that it evolved on its own, unless and until there is a totally 
different type of operational procedures at molecular level, which I 
dont think is the case..
If we say that we evolved merely from random
 mutations, then I would like to quote Einstein but in a different 
context as God does not play dice&quot;

Let me debunk it now.
1. Evolution is not related with origin of life.
2. Evolution is based on a process Natural selection which is NOT random.
3. And Einstein is misquoted here as if he believed in god. Einstein didn&#039;t believe in god.
4. Einstein was talking about the uncertainty principle which has got nothing to do with evolution here.</description>

		<description>swamy, your explanation of vegitarian fish is inadequate. in any original population, many combinations of genetic variation are possible.  take humans for example.  in the original population of humans, there was genetic information for different color of skin, hair, eyes, etc., different heights, etc.  as smaller populations separate and become isolated from the others, they lose genetic info.  african americans, for example, have lost the genetic info for white skin.  so these veggie fish you are talking about - when the veggie food supply runs out the veggie fish die. only fish with genetic info that allows  them to eat meat survive.  no mutation gave these fish the ability to eat meat.  nor did crossoever.  the info was already in their genes.  and since the veggie fish all died, only meat eating genes were carried on to offspring.  but these offspring are the same fish - they are not a new species.  (in your comment, you meticulously explain how the diet of veggie fish can change from plant to meat, but you don&#039;t tell how these meat eating veggie fish change into a completely new species.  now, tell me how these fish could then evolve into sharks, pirhanna, etc. -  you haven&#039;t and you can&#039;t.  no evolutionist can because it is impossible.  for a new species to evolve from another there must be an INCREASE in genetic info.  mutations (either good or bad) ALWAYS cause a DECREASE in genetic info.  this decrease is called variation (difference between african american and caucasion - both are human).  variation within a species is not evolution (monkey to man - for a monkey to become man, new information must be added - mutations NEVER add new information).   And about punctuated equilibrium - this fairy tale was invented because, after 150 years of searching, no evolutionist has ever found a transitional form of any species.  if millions of species had evolved over millions of years,  there should be at least one example.  but there isn&#039;t.</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>ADAPTATION and NOT Evolution</p>
<p>The Wisdom of God and the Conscience of man<br />
1. The Wisdom present in the infinite polymorphic structure, as well as the complexity and the total harmony with which the LAWS that have power over and combine MATTER and ENERGY that coexist and interact in the universe, should have been more than reason enough for every man and woman endued with a conscience, to realize without a reason of a doubt, of a presence of a GOD CREATOR, and LAWMAKER!<br />
(Words that are synonymous with the word conscience are principles, ethics, and scruples)</p>
<p>2. The Universe<br />
It is known that the universe is made from Matter, that is possessed by Energy that gives it the ability (flexibility) to Act, React and Adapt in ways that are anticipated. These anticipated combinations of actions and reactions that have been taking place between Mater and Energy from the beginning of the appearance of the universe as we know it today, were studied by scientists and they were recorded down as LAWS (of nature). According to observations of scientists, the universe has been expanding from the very beginning of it s creation. (Allow me please to use the word “evolve” to describe a universe that is constantly reshaping only).<br />
Therefore one the main characteristic of the universe that we live in is that IT IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING (evolving).<br />
LIFE on earth would be impossible to be sustained in the absence of these LAWS (the anticipated combinations of actions and reactions between mater and energy) that are “responsible” for the type HARMONIOUS EXPANSION, which allows the «right living circumstances» for life on earth as we know it today.<br />
This “movement of perfection” was a provision of God hidden with in Creation from the very beginning, that was to be set in motion “triggered” (big bang) by the protoplasts as a natural concernment in case of sin. Disobedience and apostasy brought on to the protoplasts life as we know it today that is described by the Holy Fathers as “the first death”. The “first death” is a spiritual death and it describes the separation of man from God.<br />
With in Gods creational concernment for the stage of creation that would follow a possible downfall,<br />
the philanthropist God provides for the appearance of matter first and then space so that they could be given Time for repentance providing at the same time in the “works” the death of the body “the second death” so that Adam would have the chance to return  after repenting.</p>
<p>3. This eternal expansion (transformation) of the universe that has been taking place from the very beginning of Adams exile, is made possible because of the suppleness that characterizes the relationship between MATER and ENERGY with which the universe is created and sustained.<br />
The LAWS that coexist and interact in the universe that have power over and combine MATTER and ENERGY, gives Matter the ability (flexibility), to act, react, and adapt!<br />
It is through this continuous expansion (movement) of the universe, that Energy and Matter are eternally called forth to Adapt, submitting always, to “new dada” constantly arising, from the ever continues movement of the Galaxies.</p>
<p>4. It was as of a natural consequence then, that the Laws governing Matter and Energy with which the animal and plant kingdom was created with, and the laws governing the elements (Matter and Energy) that the earth’s environment was made from, to uninterruptedly “refashion” their selves (the laws),    always in response to the immense powers (laws) of the expanding universe that surrounds them.</p>
<p>5.This is the fashion with which (along with the help of time) that all geophysical changes took place, the changes in weather, in landscape, the mountains, the seas and the forest as known by science and history. It was only a natural Creational Concernment, that man kind, the animal species, and all vegetation that were to inhabit the earth to be able to ADAPT to the continues changing conditions that were to come up because of the action-reaction effect caused on earth by  the ever changing (expanding) universe.</p>
<p>6. The fish<br />
The waters in a big lake are slowly drawing back for the lake is destined to try up in a couple of thousand years. Some species of fish spring small legs, in order to adapt to new living conditions and survive at the same place were once they were fish. They Adapt or Evolved?</p>
<p>7. ?he animals<br />
The brown bear is somehow cut off her “woods” environment, maybe an earthquake maybe a flood. Her quest for food has let her to the Antarctic. Her brown colour stands in the way of successfully hunting. A few generations later the brown bear eventually becomes white.<br />
Did the bear Adapt or Evolve?</p>
<p>8 Plants<br />
The plants first appear in the sea, with ancient representative’s algae and bacteria. ?he seas recede in compliance with earths nature that is eternally changing (adapting). If theoretically we were given the opportunity to observe on a daily basis for the past 1000000 years algae that lived in the sea slowly transform (adapt) through out the centuries in order to be able to live as plants where they once lived as algae… would we be then able to record the exact date (second) they “evolved”?<br />
Did plants Adapt or did plants evolve?</p>
<p>9 Man (another smaller universe) A description of the human body, a part of an article belonging to Mr. K Mavromatides (<a href="http://www.renalkomotini.gr/gr_news39.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.renalkomotini.gr/gr_news39.htm</a>)</p>
<p>In the human organism exists various types of cells that in turn are made from various types of molecules? These molecules are consisted from one or more atoms consisted of one or more elements that are connected between them chemically. The atoms are made from a nucleus, neutrons, protons and the electrons. The number of protons (positive charged particles) in the nucleus of the atom, determines the number of electrons (negative charged particles) that are FOUND IN ORBIT around the nucleus of the atom ( in one or more layers). The electrons are then get into chemical reactions…</p>
<p>10. This is the exact way with which the body (the small universe) of man which is made from Mater and Energy responses to environmental changes that are “imposed” by the universe. Being able to adapt to these universal changes under laws that are invisible but necessary to him, he has a secured a life in a universe that is always changing (transforming). Thereby, the human body becomes stronger, taller and healthier, because of the natural laws “imposed” of better nutrition and better health.<br />
Did man Adapt or evolve?</p>
<p>11 The mind<br />
The descendants of Adam adapt to their new environment by constructing new knowledge (with the mind) that they need for their new unfamiliar home. You see while living in Paradise, they did need the logic of the mind in order to be able to survive.<br />
?dam was the king of Creation because his pure heart was like a mirror that reflected the Light of God with in Paradise. The protoplasts enjoyed this gift through the Faith and Obedience they showed to God from the beginning of their creation. Disobedience, resulted to the “breaking” of the mirror and the descend of Adam along with the world (Paradise) to darkness.</p>
<p>In the place of Paradise begotten by LIGHT (the Light of God) sustained by mans Heart Faith and Obedience, appears a Universe begotten by DARKNESS (the absence of God), sustained by Matter Space and Time, the protoplasts “new home” where Adam and Eve are now called to use their minds (logic) in order to survive, instead of their hearts.</p>
<p>The universe as we know it today represents “everything remained” when the Light of the Lord (God) was withdrawn, because of the decision of Adam and Eve to “become god” by disobedience.</p>
<p>The ability of the minds of the descendants of Adam to add to knowledge that was begotten by their earth ancestors is not described as “evolution”, but as the “poor way” of acquiring knowledge (the man centered way) that replaced the Christ centered way (Revelation) in Paradise, that was done thought the protoplasts PERSONAL EXPERIENCES “begotten” by the mind reflected by their HEARTS, while being obedient.</p>
<p>The ability of the human mind to acquire and sustain a great deal of knowledge is not called “evolution”, it is called intelligence. The studies of man of the planet earth, fossils, space, and generally creation, can make him an adept of the Winston and Creativity of God but not God Himself because it is impossible for man to know Him with his own logic or intelligence. In order for man to meet (know) God, it is only reasonable to point out, that God has to want to reveal His Self to man! The coming of Lord Jesus and the creation of the Church by the Apostles that took the name Orthodox (the correct way of worshiping God during the schism), had as primary objective the creation of the right preconditions for man to know God personally. On the internet page <a href="http://kainh.homestead.com/Cyprus.html" rel="nofollow">http://kainh.homestead.com/Cyprus.html</a> you can read about this Church therapy that enables men and women to know God personally, and also find out why Sainthood is not an ethical term, but an ontological transformation (testifying to the UNION with God) that is verifiable on the remains of Monks (Saints) after death.</p>
<p>12. The justice of God is found in all ages (diachronically) regarding his relationship with man.<br />
It is common knowledge to all that the personal relationship of each and every one of us with God depends from our True Faith and Love toward Him.  The factor that determines the EQUALITY (before God) of ALL THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE EVER LIVED is their gift of FREE WILL (to make decisions). It is with this gift of FREE WILL that men and women are responsible for safekeeping their self conscience, and all acts that are disliked by God that are known as sins. The social standing of a person, the intelligence given, the wealth or the year lived on earth, was never the “determining factor” as to a “better or worst” personal relationship with God.</p>
<p>13. The Holy Fathers, for the LAWMAKER GOD<br />
“God has decreed it and God has commanded it. His Almighty Word and his Creational Command ordered Once and for All from the beginning of creation, to Maintain Renew, Revive the universe and Nature” for all times.</p>
<p>14. Through this way of looking at Creation, we can now appreciate and attribute graciously to the Triad Creator God, the Winston for creating DNA, this huge “storage room” of possibilities!</p>

		<description>I really enjoyed the rest of your articles, but this one doesn&#039;t seem to excite me as much as the others. You seem to be contradicting you own views. I think you have some misconceptions about evolution. I am in the middle of something here, so i&#039;ll be back with a detailed explanation of my views.</description>

		<description>hi,
i really appreciate the way you have done research,
but apart from all this, i always have had a feeling that there are somethings that are not meant to be known the more deeper we go the more complex it is. maybe we could satisfy ourselves that we have reached a particular level. and i jus ask a small favour...what do you know something deep about the big bang theory? have you read the &quot;&quot;angels and demons&quot;&quot; by &quot;&quot;dan brown&quot;&quot; he says that there were matter and antimatter which were created by god and he ends up creating antimatter.
well if that might be the case, then the big bang theory might also be wrong. can you write something about this??</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have many things to say and ask!!</p>
<p>Again!! Who is being stubborn? I have asked valid scientific questions, and instead of explaining how that happens at a basic level, you are simply repeating the same old theoretical statement without any proof!!</p>
<p>Its very strange. First you said &#8220;&#8221;New species are created only when there’s a need for it&#8221;"</p>
<p>Now you are saying &#8220;&#8221;it doesn’t mean someone is monitoring the whole situation, it means work of nature comes into play&#8221;"</p>
<p>I didnt say &#8220;&#8221;someone&#8221;" has to be monitoring, I said for the need to be detected &#8220;&#8221;something&#8221;" / &#8220;&#8221;some process&#8221;" HAS to be there in the bodies.</p>
<p>If it is not there, then the change becomes random. Need identification has NOTHING to do with random things.</p>
<p>What you said about bacteria is random mutations, not need based evolution. Bacterial cells divide once in 20 minutes and hence its easy to observe long generations here. Thats all.</p>
<p>Let me put it in plain english. HOW DOES THE NATURAL MECHANISM WORK TO CREATE A NEW SPECIES? IS IT RANDOM MUTATIONS OR IS THERE SOME IDENTIFICATION PROCESS? IF THERE IS A PROCESS WHAT IS THAT? IF IT IS RANDOM MUTATIONS THEN THE WHOLE EVOLUTION IS FLOPPED BECAUSE RANDOM MUTATIONS CAN ALSO LEAD TO THICK FURS IN A DESERT!</p>
<p>Please stop using poetic sentences like &#8220;&#8221;work of nature comes into play&#8221;", &#8220;&#8221;and it happens automatically&#8221;" etc. Science always demands answers in the form of HOW and WHY?</p>
<p>Again as I said, consider a species A with chromosomes 24 which evolves into a new species B with say 26 chromosomes. The whole change might require hundreds or thousands of generations to form. But there HAS to be a single generation where the number of chromosomes has changed from 24 to 25 or to 26. For that new born there HAS to be another sexual couterpart with same new count of chromosomes. Else it will lead to situations like down&#8217;s syndrome, klinefelter&#8217;s syndrome etc giving birth to newborns which cant reproduce! This is basic genetics.</p>
<p>Already there are about 15 questions of mine which are intelligently avoided and unanswered. I do not want to change anybody, change is an internal process. As I said earlier, I would love evolution to be true, but definitely NOT BELIEVE IT TILL ALL MY DOUBTS ARE CLEARED. Generic answers without specific details are not scientific.</p>
<p>If that were the case, I would have easily argued for intelligent design saying, aliens used to visit earth once in a while, they used to monitor the environment and as and when it changed, they created new species in those places. Some aliens also wanted to experiment with new designs, which is why you find new species evolving even when there was no need to change or no danger for an existing species!! Now the aliens are no more visiting us, which is why you havent found any new species evolved after man became intelligent. Aliens stopped there and left after that. They transferred their knowledge to man before leaving, so that intelligent man can now design new species!!</p>
<p>I dont argue like above because I am not writing a science fiction here <img src='http://www.hitxp.com/articles/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I am not obsessed about mutations. The issue here is RANDOM MUTATIONS used to support evolution. Fred hoyle, noted mathematician and physicist said, &#8220;&#8221;The chance that higher life forms have been evolved by chance is comparable with the chance that a Tornado sweeping a junk yard might assemble a boeing-747 from the materials available&#8221;"</p>
<p>Forget him, please read what those great genetic scientists who actually discovered things at the genetic level have to say about evolution!! Thats simply because they have questions at a very fundamental level. Which is why I asked you to read about latest genetics and cellular mechanism, without which you will NEVER get an actual picture of what is happening. Even if evolution is true, it should happen at this level of cellular mechanisms and genetic structure changes, NOT AT surroundings level which you keep talking about. Surrounding in case of evolution are just a cause, the actual effect is at genetic level.</p>
<p>Instead of repeating the same thing, why dont you try to prove me wrong by countering the facts that I gave one by one. I am not here to stick to my guns. If I found answers to my questions, very tomorrow you will be seeing me writing a post supporting evolution!! But definitely not without any base proof!</p>
<p>By thinking about Darwin&#8217;s theory over these arguments, now I doubt even my original post about this theory explaining adaptation!! Random and adaptation are two different things linked ONLY by chance.</p>

		<description>i have just one thing to say. Species are not born, they evolve over time. And stop being obsessed about mutations, how many crazy sci-fi flicks have you seen? I really lost interest in explaining the whole thing to you because you&#039;re so stubborn and unwilling to change your prespective. Look kid! when two people mate, their offsprings just dont mutate (to the level you&#039;re thinking, like a complete different species), it&#039;ll take atleast more than 2000-5000 (based on the new bacteria research done, search in washingtonpost.com if i remeber correctly) of generations to notice any visible difference between generation 1 and generation 5000 (or watever). And as for NEED, c&#039;mon get the basics straight, when i say there&#039;s a need for it, it doesn&#039;t mean someone is monitoring the whole situation, it means work of nature comes into play, survival and adaption or caused due to this need and it happens automatically because one species will develop an Edge over the other over course of time. I suggest you post the same query on some genetics forum, but be warned, people out there can be really sarcastic when your going to show the same attitude there.</description>
