Even more complexity and support for design
Even more complexity
Tiny protein motor fuels bacterial movement
Bacteria
The ability to move is key for bacteria like some strains of salmonella and E. coli to efficiently spread infections. They can propel themselves forward using threads, known as flagella, powered by the flagellar rotary motor. But how this rotary motor is powered has been a mystery among scientists. Now, researchers from UCPH show that the bacterial flagellar motor is powered by yet another even tinier, rotary motor.

Royal Society Meeting - Modern Synthesis is Broken
Read a report on the Royal Society Meeting
“The Modern Synthesis, while undoubtedly productive for a time, is a misconception of reality that has reached the limits of its explanatory power. The problems are fundamental. No amount of cosmetic surgery is going correct them.”
“To the contrary, Darwinian competition causes not the evolution of species but the destruction of species.It is collaboration in its various forms that causes biological evolution. Hence I’m surprised by calls for extending the neo-Darwinian Evolutionary Synthesis. You can’t extend something that is broken. Surely what is needed now, after 65 years, is using the empirical evidence to develop a new paradigm for biological evolution.”
"If you want the definition of the Modern Synthesis, take a look at how Neil deGrasse Tyson explains evolution in the 2014 remake of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos series. Tyson, an astrophysicist, is unaware that he is misinformed, as are most in science, academia, government, literature, the arts, and the public by this outmoded theory of evolution."
“Shuker tried to interrupt but Noble held his ground:
‘No, YOU need to listen. I used to think exactly like you. I embraced the reductionist mindset for years. When I got out of school I was a card-carrying reductionist. Reductionism is powerful and it’s useful. I am not dissing it. Many times we need it. But it is not the whole story.’ Noble described how bacterial regulatory
networks rebuilt those genes in four days by hyper-mutating, actively searching for a solution that would give them tails and enable them to Nind food. Natural selection did not achieve that. Natural genetic engineering did.’”

“It’s appropriate that this meeting is being held at the Royal Society, whose motto, we were reminded yesterday, is “Nullius in verba”: Accept nothing on authority."
“Not one whit of empirical evidence shows that new species arise from the neo-Darwinian mechanism. To the contrary, Darwinian competition causes not the evolution of species but the destruction of species.”

Evolution 2.0 New Book
“This book is groundbreaking in synthesizing the latest science. No other single book brings it all together so well.
Evolution 2.0 Breaking the Deadlock between Darwin and Design is a must read to those interested in the current state of the supposed conflict between faith and reason. It shows that where they intersect they are not in opposition.
Evolution 2.0 is the future. Beautifully written and engaging it is useful for the person who is eager to learn more and take the journey with Perry. It will especially appeal to engineers who design everyday and recognize it in the language of DNA and the sophistication of life. The Grand Design of life is fully appreciated on page after page.

DNA news - now 80% is coding - down goes "junk DNA"
Design predicted this. All along it has been thought function will be found for so called "junk DNA". Now 80% is coding.

Front Loading? Genetic Entropy? Complexity to simplicity?
More support for design and IDvolution.
Front Loading? Genetic Entropy? Complexity to simplicity? Devolution. Adam and Eve with preternatural gifts to modern day humans? Every day now more evidence comes in supporting IDvolution and design present at the beginning.
Research suggests that evolution sometimes meant becoming simpler, not more complex
(Phys.org)—The view that animals have become more complex over time could be a thing of the past, according to the latest research.
The new evidence, from scientists at the University of St Andrews, suggests that some modern day animals may have evolved instead by becoming less complex.
The researchers say that the discovery, of ghostly remains of gene neighbourhoods that once existed in a 550 million year old ancestor, suggests that the earliest animal was more complex than previously thought.
The findings, published later today in the journal, Current Biology, appear to contradict the common perception of evolution – that creatures have advanced by becoming genetically more complex over time.

Dr. John Sanford "Genetic Entropy and the Mystery of the Genome"
Below is additional support for IDvolution.
Some quotes from Dr John Sanford on genetic entropy. Very consistent with IDvolution and Scripture. To get the full effect take the time to view the videos. Listen carefully where he states it is "kind of a trade secret of population geneticists." The design of the genome is astonishing and shows intelligence, design and purpose.
"We are not some casual and meaningless product of evolution. Each of us is a thought of God."Pope Benedict XVI
----------------------------------------------------------------------
"a vastly superior operating system"
"a galaxy of design and complexity"
"over 90% of the genome is actively transcribed"
"the genome has multiple overlapping messages"
"data compression on the most sophisticated level"
"more and more the genome looks like a super super set of programs"
"more and more it looks like top down design"
"the reality is everybody is mutant"
"the selection process really has nothing to grab hold of"
"so it's kind of a trade secret amongst population geneticists,any well informed population geneticist understands man is degenerating"
"so in deep geological time we should have been extinct a long time ago"
"the human race is degenerating at 1-5% per generation"
"so personal and so immediate, because there is no circle of life where things where things stay the same, and it's not an upward spiral of evolution, things keep getting better and better, it is a downward spiral exactly as described in Scripture"
"I realized it had major implications for evolution, but I had no... I couldn't have guessed how profound the biblical implications are, how profoundly the evidence supports the biblical perspective of a dying universe and a dying world, we are dying because of the fall"
"and our only hope is Christ"
