Evolution problems

Here are some postings I placed on Facebook showing my issues with modern evolution theory.

The explanation given in class today was concerning the supposed change from prokaryotic to eukaryotic cells. The problem is that eukaryotic cells, or cells with nucleus and organelles etc., are irreducibly complex. In other words without just one piece they cease to function.

The explanation involved getting a bunch of prokaryotic, single cells... Read More no nucleus organisms to band together into a colony. Then they might form symbiotic relationships. then they might form endosymbiotic relationships. (One organism lives in another). Eventually the cells become specialized and when one cell decides to reproduce the entire organism then you have an eukaryotic or multi-celled organism.
This just doesn't work, nor are there any examples of it. Even supposing it could somehow be feasible, it still does not explain how the cell structure begins, only how different cells start to work differently.
This is besides the fact that the mechanism for genetic change, mutation is touted as a working process. This is because they change the definition for mutation. As it was explained was any change in the organism, (including natural variations in the genome).
I am OK with the basic tenets of Natural selection, as that only shows that certain ... Read More characteristics of creatures will survive over time, and that the creature will not remain if it cannot adapt.
The problem comes that to change to another species, or another kind of organism, the DNA has to change data sets. There is only so much you can change by adaptation and genetics, but then you get into mutations in the chromosomes. This is where modern sciences tells us that the meat of evolution occurs. The problem is that whenever you mutate or change DNA this way it is a negative mutation, and usually will kill the host. This is one of reasons we have so many diseases, they are genetic failures.

Natural changes, mutations, without a guiding hand to make them beneficial result in damage or loss to the data stored in the DNA. You can't come up with data from no data, which is exactly what my professor was attempting to us. That with time and the need for adaptation to the environment the data will appear and the mutations will occur to fix whatever the problem might be. That is contrary to the way things work in real life.

My professor even admitted to the staggering odds against the possibility of life forming from nothing with evolution. However he just shrugged it off as wow weren't we lucky it did anyway.
It is mathematically impossible for life to arise or evolve once, much less every change to get us from single celled organisms to complex mammals.
Yet because they see no other option science ignores data that shows they wrong and plows on generating hundreds of theories to back up a theory flawed from its foundation.
