Why Neither “Extreme” Can Take Science Literally

A blog reader named Nelson Hernandez said: There isn’t code in DNA. Those are just letters we give chemical interactions to be able to talk about them. There isn’t a code in DNA. That’s like saying there is a code in the rain/water cycle. Nonsense. Nelson, There’s a guy who often comments on this site,…

The Mathematics of DNA

In the 1940’s, the eminent scientist Barbara McClintock damaged parts of the DNA in corn maize. To her amazement, the plants could

The Iron Curtain of 2010

The Berlin Wall in East Germany fell on November 9, 1989, after 28 years of isolation. When the dominoes of communism began to fall, the speed at which they tumbled was amazing.

Today, Darwinism is in the same place in 2010 as communism was in 1986. It’s wheezing like a dying animal. Flailing wildly. Draining limited resources defending itself against attackers. It’s barely able to feed its own people, let alone advance useful scientific theories of its own.

Testable Hypothesis for Intelligent Design, Pt 2

3% of our DNA codes for proteins. For many years nobody knew what the other 97% was for.

Since the 1970’s, that other 97% that wasn’t understood has been called “Junk DNA.”

(If I only had a dollar for every guy who has sent me an email that said, “OK Perry, then if DNA is designed how come 97% of my DNA is junk? Huh? Answer me that!!!”)

Today’s hypothesis is very simple:

Testable Hypothesis for Intelligent Design, Part 1

A common misconception is that Evolution and Intelligent Design is an either/or proposition.

Today I’m going to tie the two together in an elegant way and show that they compliment each other beautifully.

A common criticism of Intelligent Design is that it produces no testable hypothesis.

Today I’m going to lay that accusation firmly to rest with a whole series of predictions about what evolution research will show us in the next 3 to 20 years.
