The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an “enigma”, is one of great interest to biologists.

The agenda of the "New Atheists" is not merely to refute mainstream religion but to replace it. Unfortunately, the scientific community is poorly represented by these aggressive public figures.

Instead, just as Jesus is “God incarnate,” both divine and human, the Bible is a book that speaks God’s word and reflects the thoughts, ideas, and worldviews of the human authors. and reflects the thoughts, ideas, and worldviews of the human authors.]]> Mon, 25 Apr 11 17:15:29 -0700 Pete Enns
