Fired Over Dinosaur Discovery

Triceratops horridus dinosaurMark Armitage, a laboratory supervisor and widely published scientist for more than 30 years, was fired over dinosaur discovery by California State University of Northridge (CSUN) after publishing evidence of soft tissue extracted from a dinosaur fossil in a peer-reviewed journal.

Why did CSUN fire the scientist? Because the evidence undermines the long-standing dogma of the evolution industry. The dinosaur soft tissue, according to the prevailing dogma, should have died at least 60 million years ago. “This find cannot agree with an old earth,” an astute Examiner reporter explains:

“Even an old-earth creationist couldn’t explain it. But a young-earth creationist can.”

Meaning of Species

SpeciesGreek philosophers are thought to be the first to classify animals and plants, each class having similar attributes. While the story behind the term species (Greek εἶδος) began with Plato, defining the meaning of species continues to be controversial.

Building on Plato, Aristotle used genus (γένος) and species as philosophical categories. A genus was a category, and a species was a subcategory of a genus. At the time, the two terms were just as often applied to inanimate things as to living ones. The term continues looking for its definition.

Charles Darwin agonized over the longstanding problem of the term. In The Origin of Species, Darwin wrote,

“… of the term species. No one definition has satisfied all naturalists.”

The Universe Shouldn’t Exist

In the search to solve physics’ greatest mysteries, the evidence seems to point to one astounding fact – “the universe shouldn’t exist.”

Physicists Peter Higgs and François Englert, working on the most expensive experiment in the history of science, were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics fin 2012 for the discovery of the long-sought-after Higgs boson or Higgs particle (pictured left), which is pivotal to the Standard Model of physics.

While the evidence continues to validate the particle’s existence, ironically, the evidence may unravel the Big Bang theory for the universe’s origin.

Evolution at an Impasse

WebTwo opposing theories of evolution have emerged into a new impasse – “survival of the fittest” versus symbiosis. As Charles Darwin explained in The Origin of Species (1859), evolution results from competition between species.

On the opposing side, evolution is thought to result from some altruistic cooperation between the species − a process of symbiosis. Darwin proposed that evolution stems from “accumulating slight, successive” changes during the “struggle for life” − a process he called natural selection.

Poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, born the same year as Darwin, captured the essence of this struggle for life in the now-infamous phrase—“nature red in tooth and claw.”

War Over Natural Selection

Patrick Matthew

The war over natural selection continues. Not only did Charles Darwin (1812-1882) plagiarize Patrick Matthew’s (1790-1874) (pictured left) work but evolutionary scientists are increasingly critical of the theory. Mike Sutton, a criminology expert at Nottingham Trent University, spent years cross-referencing the works of Darwin alongside those of Matthew. According to Sutton,

“I have no doubt, based on the weight of new evidence, that Darwin did read Matthew’s book and then went on to replicate his discovery and key themes.”

Science correspondent Sarah Knapton, in the article, “Did Charles Darwin ‘borrow’ the theory of natural selection?” published by The Telegraph (UK), reported on Sutton’s findings –

“Darwin must not only have been aware of Matthew’s work but borrowed from it heavily” proving that “the naturalist [Darwin] lied.”
