"The theory of evolution is believed to be an incontrovertible fact by the general public and most of the scientific community, and is taught as such by most educators. This should not be the case.

The theory of evolution is a valid scientific hypothesis, but the facts are that it has not been proved beyond a shadow of a doubt. To be proven valid, the theory of evolution must undergo the scrutiny (rigours) of the scientific method. This, however, cannot be accomplished because the millions of years required for experimental testing are beyond the reasonable limit of human observation.

The current ‘evidence’ for the theory of evolution would not stand up in a court of law while undergoing judicial scrutiny. There would be indications that biased interpretation of data had occurred, as alternative theories could be presented to account for observed and tested facts.

The theory of evolution needs its facade of scientific immutability lifted, and exposed for what it really is - an unproven scientific theory.

This set of facts and quotes is a step in the direction of lifting evolution's facade."

  Preface

"I have been teaching science for 20 years, but I have had a number of problems with the theory of evolution.

1. I knew that there were no absolute proofs for evolution.
2. Almost all of my colleagues taught evolution as a fact.
3. All the textbooks presented evolution and geological ages as a fact.
4. The media presented evolution as a fact, announcing new 'proofs' with great fanfare, but not reciprocating when 'proofs' were falsified.
5. I knew that many of the 'proofs' of evolution were no longer regarded as proof by the world's leading scientists.
6. I knew that a lot of research was disproving evolution, but the results were either not reaching the teaching profession, or the teachers were biased and refused to present them to their students.

With this background, I decided to write this book. It was written as a resource for science teachers and students, as a collation of information that contradicts what is being taught in schools.

I have structured each section by addressing its basic premises and then replying from logic, research, and the world's leading scientists.

Each section is introduced with the statement, "Evolution says". I did this because this is the way it is imposed on school children, i.e. as an irrefutable dictum. I reply with "The facts are", presenting factual material that should be included in lessons in schools.

The material I present in this book represented the available information at the time of publishing. There will be myriads of responses, regarding their validity, etc., however, these will be personal opinions which do not restrict them from being considered by others."

THE EARTH

Evolution Says .....
The earth is known to be nearly 5.0 billion years old. It formed as a consequence of the Big Bang.

The Facts Are .....
(1) The age of Earth is not known, as it is calculated indirectly. Its age depends on which indirect method is used to calculate it. Some alternative scientific calculations of the age of the earth are:-

(i) Build-up of Aluminium in the oceans from rivers 100 yrs [4]
(ii) Build-up of Titanium in the oceans from rivers 160 yrs [4]
(iii) Build-up of Manganese in the oceans from rivers 1,400 yrs [4]
(iv) Movement of Helium-4 into the atmosphere 1,750-175,000 yrs [1]
(v) Decay of Carbon-14 in pre-Cambrian wood 4,000 yrs [2]
(vi) Build-up of Silicon in the oceans from rivers 8,000 yrs [4]
(vii) Build-up of Nickel in the oceans from rivers 9,000 yrs [4]
(viii) Movement of Uranium into the oceans from rivers 10,000-100,000 yrs [1]
(ix) Build-up of Mercury in the oceans from rivers 42,000 yrs [4]
(x) Build-up of Copper in the oceans from rivers 50,000 yrs [4]
(xi) Build-up of Barium in the oceans from rivers 84,000 yrs [4]
(xii) Decay of Palaeomagnetism 100,000 yrs [2]
(xiii) Formation of Carbon-14 on meteorites 100,000 yrs [3]
(xiv) Build-up of Carbonate in the oceans 100,000 yrs [5]
(xv) Leaching of Chlorine from the continents 1,000,000 yrs [5]
(xvi) Build-up of Calcium in the oceans 1,000,000 yrs [5]
(xvii) Build-up of Potassium in the oceans from rivers 11,000,000 yrs [4]

(2) Most of the earth's land mass, according to evolutionary theory, is supposed to have been above sea level for hundreds of millions of years. Yet, analysis of erosion data indicates that all the land should have been eroded away within 15 million years. This is based on an estimated rate of the removal of soil and rock by wind and water of the order of 25 billion tonnes per year. Even if the land rises as it erodes, it would not be enough to extend the age from 15 million years to 5 billion years. Gordeyev V.V. et al, "The Average Chemical Composition of Suspensions in the World's Rivers and the Supply of Sediments to the Ocean by Streams", Dockl. Akad. Nauk. SSSR, Vol. 238, 1980 p:150

(3) The earth receives an estimated 14 million tonnes of cosmic dust each year. At this rate, if the earth was 5 billion years old, there should be a 60m layer of this dust on the surface of the earth. Evolutionary theory dismisses this by saying that erosion and mixing has removed it from the surface. This hypothesis is unsatisfactory as there is not enough cosmic dust on Earth to support it. Meteoric dust is rich in nickel, approximately 300 times more than in earth's rocks. Nickel is rare in both the earth's crust and the oceans, indicating that the earth is young. Scott M. Huse, "The Collapse of Evolution", Baker Book House: Grand Rapids (Michigan), 1983 p:22-23

(4) The speed of rotation of the earth is gradually slowing down due mainly to the gravitational pull of the sun and moon. If the earth is billions of years old, then the spin of the earth would have had to have been so fast at the start, that the continents would have been forced to the equator and the planet would be flatter rather than oval-shaped. Scott M. Huse, "The Collapse of Evolution", Baker Book House: Grand Rapids (Michigan), 1983 p:25
