The childlike simplicity offered by some of the evolutionary scientists about DNA and the characteristics people have because of having a certain type of gene, is becoming clearly an illusion. But it’s one that’s still promoted.

John Lennox, in his book God’s Undertaker, tells us: Indeed for many years molecular biologists have regarded it as a 'central dogma', as Francis Crick called it, that the genome accounts completely for an organism's inherited characteristics. This inevitably fuelled the kind of biodeterminism that held individual genes responsible for a whole variety not only of human diseases but also of all manner of characteristics from predisposition to violence or obesity - to mathematical ability.

However, evidence is rapidly mounting that this is very unlikely to be the case. it is now evident that a large collection of genes may be involved in any one particular trait or function — their correspondence is many-to-one rather than one-to-one.

Those oh so primitive views of life that the scientists of Darwin’s day had, had gradually evolved, yes that’s the right word, to the point where it was about to tell the world that life had emerged from matter – and that God didn’t matter! Oh happy day.

From 1835, when Charles Darwin was travelling around the world on HMS Beagle, and then from 1842 when he put pen to paper to outline his theory, up until 1859 when he finally published his book, On the Origin of Species the two most important scientific developments that he really needed to know about, wouldn’t happen for over another 90 years. Materialist scientists, atheist, saw those developments as decisively ending all of this nonsense about God, but were they getting ahead of themselves?
