Fisher’s Fundamental Theorem of Natural Selection has done a lot to convince many professional academics of the truth of Darwinian evolution. The theorem states that the rate of increase in fitness of any organism at any time is equal to its variance in fitness at that time. In other words, fitness must go up! Because it is a mathematical equation, many are convinced that selection must be effective. However, it turns out that Fisher’s theorem actually says very little about fitness, or even biology. While this has been pointed out before, a recent paper shows (a) the limitations of the theorem to tell us anything helpful about selection, (b) the limitations of the theorem to tell us anything about evolution, Read More ›

Above is a picture of three children in 1954. One of them is me, the other two are not. I saw the world from inside one of these children. Darwinists believe they can explain how these children evolved, but how did I end up inside one of them? This is a question that rarely seems to trouble evolutionists. They talk about human evolution as if they were outside observers and never seem to wonder how they got inside one of the animals they are studying. They seem to feel that they just need to explain how the human brain evolved, then there is nothing left to explain. Well, there is a picture of a brain below, if you click on Read More ›
