Is there evidence for special creation, the evidence is all around us…
A pin head’s volume of dna can store the equivalent information of a pile of cd’s 1,000 miles high, or 40 million times as much as a 100 gigabyte hard drive… hmmm thats some seriously advanced technology. The human body also has hi tech nano technology to repair damaged dna. The dna repair machines use the electrical conductivity of the dna to locate errors. You did not evolve… you are a superior design by God Himself
Believe it or not, this is a picture of the wings of an Emperor Speckled Moth. To scare predators away, it’s wings display this strikingly accurate rendition of a mammal’s face – you can even see the sparkle in the pupils! Hover over image to magnify
The chameleon is a strange but amazing creature. It has two eyes which are independent of each other… giving it virtually 360° of vision. It also has a tongue that can be fired out of its mouth with incredible speed. It’s body changes colour with it’s psycholigical condition. Evolution cannot explain this miracle of engineering.
The fact that a man and a woman can come together as one is a wonderful thing… why would that happen by chance?
While drilling, the woodpecker’s head travels at more than twice the speed of a discharged bullet. Shock-impact is minimized by special muscles in the head which pull the woodpecker’s braincase away from its beak every time it strikes a blow. The woodpecker’s bone-reinforced skull is physically separated from its beak by a remarkable sponge-like cartilage (recognized by scientists as being better than any shock absorber manufactured by man). A woodpecker’s chisel-tipped bill hammers wood at the rate of 16 times a second, or nearly 1,000 pecking blows per minute–a ‘rate of fire’ doubly fast as a submachine gun–with an impact velocity of 1,300 mph. Amazing features and we havn’t even got started on its X shaped feet and it’s tongue which can stretch three to five times its normal length, emerges from the right nostril, splits into two halves which pass over opposite sides of the skull under the skin, comes around and up underneath the bill where it enters through an opening, and then out the beak through the hole drilled in the tree. Amazing!
Isn’t it a coincidence that from the earth, the moon is exactly the same size as the sun, sometimes causing beautiful eclipses. It’s like someone is trying to tell us something.
The eye baffled darwin. Neither he nor his successors have come up with a plausible way by which an optical system can have arisen by gradual evolution. The human eye is very complex, a perfect design. How can this have evolved by chance??!!
The migration of birds and other animals baffles evolutionists, it cannot be explained by evolution. How can a bird fly thousands of miles straight to a place it hasn’t been before? It is thought the birds use the stars and planets to navigate. Who gave the birds this information? Surely evidence of a designer.
Did you know that the so called simple living cell is more complex than the largest encyclopedia! Smaller than a speck of dust, it somehow has the capability to replicate itself. The probability of a single cell coming about by chance is like saying that a monkey with a typewriter might type out an encyclopedia that can replicate itself, impossible!
The human brain is massively more complex than any computer. For instance, if a part of a computers circuitry fails the whole system fails. If a part of the brain is damaged it can pass the functions to another area and rewire itself! The average human brain is made up of 100 billion cells, 500 trillion connections and processing capacity of 100 TRILLION instructions per second!
As most of you know, the firefly lights up. This light occurs in the last section of the abdomen. This segment lights up and flashes producing a neon yellow green color. Do you believe that this ability happened through random genetic mutations? The firefly, along with deep sea fish and microbes, are some of the only animals with this special gift.
Why is it that the natural world produces things that we need to live? Why would that even happen? Fruit and vegetables for example. Why would they have evolved by chance? Not only are they good for our bodies but they taste nice too!
An amazing insight into the detailed architecture of Creation. The Fibonacci sequence is found everywhere in nature – the fingerprint of God.
Physicists calculate that the probability of our universe having the ingredients of life purely by chance is about 1 in 10 229!New Scientist, 24 May 1997. Pg 39

"The fact that a man and a woman can come together as one is a wonderful thing… why would that happen by chance?" Are you serious? Mixing of DNA is vital to adaptation and evolution.
The light that the firefly emits is a mixture of some specialized chemicals and semen. It is a way to attract a mate and expand the gene pool. Nothing magical about it.
This article is complete nonsense!!

Frank, think about it for a minute or two:
A man's body creates sperm which contains his dna and it can swim and find its way to the woman's egg. A woman's body produces eggs that contain her dna and it knows to let sperm inside its cell wall. Then the sperm and the egg combine their dna to make a new human being.
No way can that happen by random mutations, come on man

This process is a lot less random than you think. Sure the sperm and egg contain DNA, but so do the rest of the cells in the body. And, yes, the sperm can swim and find it's way, but millions of the little guys never make past the vagina, likewise into the tiny fallopian tube to meet with the egg. Most are too weak, malformed, or just confused to find their way. Plus, they must be inserted into the proper channels to have a chance at this journey at all. As for your statement, that the woman's egg "knows to let the sperm in" I think you're also giving the egg a lot more credit than it really deserves. The head of the sperm is capped with an enzyme, called acrosome, which dissolved a hole through the wall of the egg. This is a simple chemical cause and effect process. Multiple sperm begin this process and the first to fully penetrate the barrier wins. This is all kinds of random chance here!
Just because you can't understand the process by which something evolved doesn't, doesn't mean that some being designed it. Do you really think this process that quite resembles Russian Roulette was really designed? If you were god, would you leave all of those things up to chance?

First of all you didn't explain anything about evolution, you are just stating how the reproductive system works.
Please tell me how all these factors evolved at the same time:
- Female is born with eggs already with her chromosomes inside.
- Female releases only one egg per cycle.
- Man producing semen with his chromosomes inside.
- Man being able to pass semen out of his body.
- Sperm must be able to swim.
- Seminal fluids contain fructose sugar providing the sperm with energy on its long journey to the ovum.
- The vagina is strongly acidic to prevent bacterial infection. It is a hostile environment for sperm (the seminal fluids counteract this acidity by producing alkaline to protect the semen).
- Gametes (the male sperm and the female egg) contain only half the normal number of chromosomes, 23 instead of 46.
- Sperm has correct enzyme on head that can penetrate egg wall.
- Sperm and egg must fuse so that their nuclei become one.
- Fertilized egg must attach to the uterus wall.
- It will also continue to produce progesterone which stabilises conditions inside the uterus until birth.
- Placenta.
- Umbilical cord.
- Woman produces milk that has everything the baby needs.
(The points above don't even cover how a creature would go from asexual to sexual. Hormones. X and Y chromosomes etc) it's a bit more than russian roulette sir. It is a highly complex process.
Remember evolution is an unguided unintelligent process. All of these factors have to be in play at the same time otherwise the 'species' fails to reproduce and dies off.
This is the point I am trying to get across to you. You have to have a huge amount of faith to believe that this happened by chance. Do you agree?
O and thanks for questioning this because I never realised how incredible this process is!

Yes. It's a well evolved and complex process. However, I still want to restate that I think the PROCESS of reproduction relies on a lot of luck – there are many points at which it could go wrong and no offspring is produced. Why wouldn't God create a system that is a little less reliant on chance?
The EVOLUTION of sexual reproduction is a different story. You say "Remember evolution is an unguided unintelligent process. All of these factors have to be in play at the same time otherwise the 'species' fails to reproduce and dies off." Evolution does not claim that one day, poof, all systems involved in sexual reproduction suddenly evolved at once. (Hence the term evolution). There are many evolutionary benefits to reproducing sexually so over the course of billions of years life slowly adapted to achieve the greatest reproductive benefits. The mutations may have been random, but only the beneficial mutations stuck around.
For argument's sake, lets just say you have never been told about the existence of a supreme being. Looking at all that modern science has developed and deciphered, you cannot tell me that you would logically jump to these same conclusions. Just because you don't understand precisely how something came to be, would you really just assume that someone must have placed it there for you?
Your sort of ignorance and refusal to accept science is exactly what will destroy progress. Looking at the evidence of evolution and accepting that it provides a good, scientific explanation of the development of life is all I ask. You do not have to sacrifice your faith to do this. If your God intelligently created life, than maybe you should at least consider that he might have snapped his fingers and rather than a bird suddenly appearing on the branch, he caused a series of events to occur that allowed a bird to evolve. You don't have to condemn science because of your beliefs.

The system God created works fine. It is too complex to be the product of an evolutionary process.
So, anyone who doesn't believe in Evolution, a mere scientific hypothesis, not even a theory (can't be a theory–there is no evidence, historical or empirical, to back it up) you are Anti-Science? Why do evolutionists equate evolution with science, when it takes science a few steps back to the age of Aristotle, when science was merely philosophy? That is ignorance sir. Everything you have posted is merely a fantasy not based on fact. I want you to post your best evidence that proves evolution.
"If your God intelligently created life, than maybe you should at least consider that he might have snapped his fingers and rather than a bird suddenly appearing on the branch, he caused a series of events to occur that allowed a bird to evolve."
God has told us how He did it in the bible:
And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so.
God doesn't need evolution. Science doesn't need evolution.
Jesus said:
"But at the beginning of creation God made them male and female."
Male and female from the beginning. That solves your asexual to sexual problem.
