Modern Humans from Adam and Eve? You Bet!

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/10/20

The idea is that all humans came from a first couple. Many people don't think this is possible, but Dr C demolishes one common argument against Adam and Eve: the thought that you can't get millions of rare variations in the genome if you start with just two people a few thousand years ago. In fact, not only are Adam and Eve an excellent fit for the real-world data, but computer modeling tells us the biblical scenario is a better fit to the data than the evolutionary one.

Origin of Life Smackdown

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/10/06

Origin-of-life research got a boost with the recent publication of a massive new computer program that was designed to model early chemical evolution. At least, that's what the headlines say. Dr C explains that things are only getting worse for the evolutionary story of how life arose and how these problems tie into the study of genetics.

Epigenetics vs Darwin

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/09/22

Epigenetics deals with those things that control which genes are turned on and off, and at what time, in the cell. It is a serious challenge to the neo-Darwinian idea that evolution occurs via a simple mutation + selection scenario.

Natural Selection in Paradise

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/09/15

Natural selection is a controversial topic both among creationists and evolutionists and within creationism. No, it is not 'proof' of evolution, and yes it is a real phenomenon. But it was also operational in the world before Adam fell and sin and death entered the world. There are several reasons for this, as I detail in this video and the associated article.

How COVID-19 Testing Works

2020/09/10

There are three different COVID-19 tests in use today, with several variations of each on the market. What, exactly, do they do? How accurate are they? What can they tell us about this virus? Dr. C goes into the details, concluding that education is the best defense against misinformation.

Angelic DNA! Wait, what?

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/08/12

There is a mysterious passage in Genesis chapter 6 about the "sons of God" having children with the "daughters of men". Scholars argue about what this means, and you can find all sorts of views on the subject in the public area. Some say the sons of God are human, some say they were fallen angels, some say they were aliens. Some say the "nepilim" that resulted were giants, some say they were kings, some say they were Neanderthals. Dr C discusses the genetic implications of the ideas. Was "nephilim"

Pandemics vs Entropy

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/08/05

Pandemic viruses are deadly, but over time they should weaken as they pick up mutations. Will this happen with the pandemic coronavirus? We can only hope. But has it ever happen before? Yes, between 1917 and 2009, the human H1N1 virus picked up thousands of mutations and eventually went extinct (twice). Yet if this virus does not get us, something else will! How does this affect our view of eternity? Links Genetic entropy information Genetic Entropy and the Mystery of the Genome (available on

The octopus is from Mars, and other stories

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/07/21

There are certain things in genetics that are truly shocking. Complexity (in this case, of the octopus genome), hybridization between species that are not in any way similar, ancient genetic connections between the Polynesians and the South Americans, and the discovery of massive cassettes of DNA that cause huge changes in organisms–without natural selection or mutation driving the changes–are all new ideas that are amazing and fun to learn about. Some of these are hard to deal with in evolutionary

Privacy is dead!

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/07/15

Privacy is dead. It never existed online, but even more importantly modern genetics has destroyed any sense of privacy. With millions of people in online databases, and with many of those accessible to the public, almost everybody is essentially identifiable. Criminals who perpetrated crimes long ago are being arrested. Family skeletons are no longer in the closet. Worse, or better, depending on your view, we have no privacy before a holy God.

Patriarchal Drive

Biblical Genetics ·

2020/07/08

Patriarchal Drive is a strange phrase with profound implications. Simply put, very old people having children in a population adds many extra mutations per child. In the biblical model, centuries-old people would have been having children within a fairly small population. This creates a recipe for very long early branches on the family tree to form, and the length of these branches does not equal 'time'. Hence, the molecular clock hypothesis is invalidated in the biblical model. Links:
