  1. bacteria resistance is not proof for evolution on The Pseudoscience of Intelligent Design · · Score: 1

    Bacteria resistance is only proof for natural selection not evolution (i.e. gaining information from non-information, e.g. "from goo to you"). Natural selection is repeatable, observable science. Evolution theory uses natural selection as a mechanism, but requires information-adding mutations and many of them (often at the same time) in order for them to be "selected". Yet there are no such examples of information being added. In every case of bacteria resitance, no new information in being added, maybe duplicated, but usually only lost. For example, the bacteria (through mutation, copy errors, etc.) looses the ability to eat a certain food (say, a certain protein). The anti-bacterial agent we use poses as that food. The resistant bacteria survives and multiplies but is less, not more than it's parent. - moements http://www.answersingenesis.org/docs/508.asp
