Luncheon at Olive Garden Restaurant in Kirkland, WA
  • Lunch at 11:30 AM
  • Talk at 12:30 PM on Transitional Forms – What Does Evidence Say?
  • Please invite your friends!

Description: Charles Darwin wrote “If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down” [Origin of Species]. He said that the transitional forms would be found in the fossil record, even though none had been found. Have 158 years of science discoveries shown the “missing links”? We’ll look at archaeopteryx, Tiktaalik, hominids (Nebraska man, Laetoli footprints, Hobbits, etc.), trilobites, dinosaurs, as well as ancient species (bacteria with new diets, coelacanths, etc.) still existing. Since all life processes have been shown to be controlled by biological computers, what would be required to form a major change?

 

 


Speaker: Dr. Don Johnson has earned PhD’s in both Computer & Information Sciences from the University of Minnesota and in Chemistry from Michigan State University. He was a senior research scientist and consultant for 15 years, and taught 20 years in universities in Wisconsin, Minnesota, California, and Europe. Since “retiring,” he has done consulting, speaking, and writing (4 books & several peer-reviewed papers). He has made presentations across the US and on most continents. His www.4iam.org Christian Website has links to several video presentations and printable flyers, as well as to his two secular science Websites (peer-reviewed papers).

See the following websites for more information:

  • Science Integrity (secular site describes books available)
  •  PoL  (secular site without pro-ID language, limited to informational aspects of life).

The Programming of Life (PoLbook highlights the proven fact that every cell has thousands of interacting computers reading billions of bits of digital information, including implementation of extremely complex digital computer programs.  Microsoft founder Bill Gates has written “Human DNA is like a computer program but far, far more advanced than any software we’ve ever created” [The Road Ahead]. Can you imagine how believable it would be if someone were to suggest that the Windows 10 operating system just arose by natural processes?
