Using creation science to demonstrate evolution 2: morphological continuity within Dinosauria

Genetic Variation within Iranian Iris Species Using Morphological Traits

Iris belongs toIridaceae family and it is monocotyledon. Iris is one of the important ornamental and medicinal plants. 34 iris genotypes (14 species) collected from different provinces of Iran were planted at National Institute of Ornamental Plants (NIOP) Iran. All of the species evaluated for 15 quantitative traits and 30 qualitative traits. Results showed that the highest positive correlation...

Enquire within: cultural evolution and cognitive science.

Cultural evolution and cognitive science need each other. Cultural evolution needs cognitive science to find out whether the conditions necessary for Darwinian evolution are met in the cultural domain. Cognitive science needs cultural evolution to explain the origins of distinctively human cognitive processes. Focusing on the first question, I argue that cultural evolutionists can get empirical...

8 Body - Size Evolution in the Dinosauria

Using Differential Evolution for GEP Constant Creation

Gene Expression Programming (GEP) is a new evolutionary algorithm that incorporates both the idea of simple, linear chromosome of fixed length used in Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and the ramified structure of different sizes and shapes used in Genetic Programming (GP). Same as other genetic programming algorithms, GEP has difficulty finding appropriate numeric constants for terminal nodes in the e...

Public School Creation Science

Many public school teachers are caught in a “no-mans land” when it comes to the teaching of origins. On the one hand, they want to teach creation. On the other hand they are told, ordered, coerced, or otherwise led to believe that they cannot teach creation and must teach evolution. Not only must they teach it, they must teach it as truth. What are these teachers to do? When should they “step o...
