Skepticism About Darwinian Evolution Grows as 1,000+ Scientists Share Their Doubts

Darwinian Evolution

Over 1,000 doctoral scientists from around the world have signed a statement publicly expressing their skepticism about the contemporary theory of Darwinian evolution. The statement, located online at dissentfromdarwin.org, reads: "We are skeptical of claims for the ability of random mutation and natural selection to account for the complexity of life. Careful examination of the evidence for Darwinian theory should be encouraged."

"Because no scientist can show how Darwin's mechanism can produce the complexity of life, every scientist should be skeptical," said biologist Douglas Axe, director of Biologic Institute. "The fact that most won't admit to this exposes the unhealthy effect of peer pressure on scientific discourse."

False Statements About Darwinian Evolution
Discovery Institute first published its Scientific Dissent from Darwinism list in in The New York Review of Books in 2001 to challenge false statements about Darwinian evolution made in PBS's series Evolution. Promoters of the series, among others, claimed that "virtually every scientist in the world believes the theory to be true."

Bruce Chapman, Discovery Institute's Chairman of the Board, found 100 PhD scientists to sign the initial dissent statement. Realizing that there were likely more scientists worldwide who shared some skepticism of Darwinian evolution and were willing to go on record, the Institute has maintained the list and added to it continually since its inception.

The list of signatories now includes 15 scientists from the National Academies of Science in countries including Russia, Czech Republic, Brazil, and the United States, as well as from the Royal Society. Many of the signers are professors or researchers at major universities and international research institutions such as the University of Cambridge, London's Natural History Museum, Moscow State University, Hong Kong University, University of Stellenbosch in South Africa, Institut de Paléontologie Humaine in France, Ben-Gurion University in Israel, MIT, the Smithsonian, Yale, and Princeton.

"As a biochemist I became skeptical about Darwinism when I was confronted with the extreme intricacy of the genetic code and its many most intelligent strategies to code, decode, and protect its information," said Dr. Marcos Eberlin, founder of the Thomson Mass Spectrometry Laboratory, and a member of the National Academy of Sciences in Brazil.

According to Nairaland Atheist scientists who acquired their certificate on Googleology, those 1000 scientists are creationists whose their work never recognized by mainstream scientists

Darwin's theory despite its implications didn't need all this for its triumph.
If there exists a more correct explanation to be found other than in darwin's,all this wouldn't be necessary I think.

Because their works are boycotted..
For instance 90% of American media is monopolized

Most of these scientists are actually sincere evolutionists. See how they answered questions and you begin to wonder why they wouldn't begin to doubt their theories. It is only NL atheists that would argue blindly because they are not sincere.

Where and how did matter and energy originate?

"The universe burst into something from absolutely nothing - zero, nada.  And as it got bigger, it became filled with even more stuff that came from absolutely nowhere". -- In the Discover magazine, Guth's Grand Guess , vol. 23, Apr. 2002, p.35.  

"[The big bang] represents the instantaneous suspension of physical laws, the sudden abrupt flash of lawlessness that allowed something to come out of nothing.  It represents a true miracle . . ." --  Paul Davis, a physicist and evolutionist, in The Edge of Infinity gave this answer

"It is only fair to say that we still have a theory without a beginning." -Joseph Silk (Ph.D. Astronomy and Professor of Astronomy at the University of Oxford), wrote in The Big slam, 2001, pg.15 that 

"I was happy to announce that astronomers have not the slightest evidence for the supposed quantum production of the universe out of a primordial nothingness." - Sten Odenwald, (who has a Ph.D. in Astrophysics and Chief Scientist with Raytheon STX Corp at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Centre), said in The Astronomy Café, 1998, pg.120  that

Asking evolutionists the right questions would be to ask them where they think dinosaurs come from?

According to evolutionists millions of years is ascribed to the fossil record.   The origin of Dinosaurs which they claim to be 220 million years ago prompts us to ask the question: 

Where did the dinosaurs come from?

"The question of the origin of dinosaurs is one that has puzzled palaeontologists for many years." - The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs, Dr. David Norman, 1985, p. 186.

Dr Norman is a lecturer in Zoology

This is a quote from an authoritative book:

"Where did dinosaurs come from?  That apparently simple question has been the subject of intense debate amongst scientists for over 150 years, . . ." - The Natural History Museum Book of Dinosaurs, 1998, p.12
 
What is their evidence? 

They claim:

"Thecondonts.  Small lizards that ran on two legs and gave rise to the giant reptiles collectively known as dinosaurs"

– The Nature of Life, 1995.

Let's listen to what seasoned scientists say about probability and life:

- Bernard Lovell (PhD Astronomy), In the Centre of Immensities – "effectively zero"
- Francis Crick, Life Itself:  Its Origin and Nature –"can never have been synthesized at all, at any time"
- Robert Gange, PhD (research in the field of cryophysics and information systems.), Origins and Destiny – "Zero"

What have they got to say on the origin of Life:

"The simplest living cells could not have arisen by chance.  Just like the eye, the proto-cell must have evolved from simpler ancestral cells, presumably by a process of "natural selection".  But this is where the first big problem with the origin of life arises.  What were those simpler entities?" - Johnjoe McFadden (Evolutionist & Professor of Molecular Biology and Quantum Physics), Quantum Evolution, 200, pg. 85.

"The origin of life is also a stubborn problem, with no solution in sight . . ., " - Franklin M. Harold, Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Colo. State University, The Way of the Cell, 2001, pg, 235.

With all these answers from evolutionist scientists themselves we can then conclude that: If evolution is unable to explain the origin of life through naturalistic means, then it is without a foundation.  Now that we have an understanding of the foundation of evolution.  Why is evolution without a foundation?  Because there is no natural process that can cause life to originate.

Nice one.

Present something intellectual like this, as see them shifting the goal-post

I know these smart scientist would never replace Darwinism, flawed as it is, with Creationism or its accompanying Intelligent Designer. Lailai not even one, not to talk of ten credible scientists!

the website name though: dissentfromdarwin.org lol

anyway i expect such skepticism from scientists otherwise what are we doing? we must comfortably challenge our own ideas, courageously and perpetually question our positions if we sincerely seek the truth

Haaaaaaa! Common bro! LOL Don't be like that

It's not me, but the Spirit in me.

I'm going to miss atheist buda.
She was cool!
Pity she evolved.

Ah well, onward and upward.

Nairaland converted an atheist!

Evolution: The most potent spell in the world.

Wait.

Buda is a she

Or is that the spirit too?

Ayam confused

Hmm. That's an odd question!
Is it not the spirit that animates?

You upskirting me, johnydon22!

buda is a sexless sexless.
Only those of eye can tell.
He was created male and female.

And yes, its all spirit. Even up my skirt!
