Scientific discoveries continue to erode Darwinism, says zoologist
From August 24- 31 Frank Sherwin, Science Editor at the Institute for Creation Research (Dallas, Texas), will be lecturing in four Okanagan communities. He is the author of “The Ocean Book” (2004) and co-author
of “The Human Body: An Intelligent Design” (2001).
Sherwin has a B.A. in Biology from Western State College in Colorado (1978 ) and an M.A. in Zoology from the University of Northern Colorado (1985). He discovered a new species of parasite, a nematode of the family Acuariidae, and published his research in the Journal of Parasitology with the late Dr. G. D. Schmidt. Before his appointment to the Institute for Creation Research (www.icr.org) Sherwin taught Human Physiology & Anatomy, Medical Microbiology, Parasitology, General Biology I & II and Cell Biology for 9 years at Pensacola Christian College. He is a member of the American Society of Parasitologists and the Helminthological Society of Washington.
Sherwin says one of the more spectacular discoveries that has done much to dispel the myth of dinosaurs living many millions of years ago is the unearthing of soft dinosaur tissue by Mary H. Schweitzer of North
Carolina State University; Schweitzer discovered flexible blood vessels inside the fossilized thighbone of a “68-70 million year old” Tyrannosaurus rex in eastern Montana. (Science, vol. 307, no. 5717, pp. 1952-1955, 25 March 2005.) Sherwin asks, “How could dinosaur tissue remain soft for 70 million years?”
Sherwin writes in his July 2008 article, “Tiny Bacteria’s Big Challenge to Darwin” (Acts & Facts magazine): “Secular scientists have no credible idea how the DNA molecule may have evolved from non-life–especially without the aid of proteins (which must be coded by DNA) or the critical DNA repair system.”
Web articles by Sherwin include:
“The Devastating Issue of Dinosaur Tissue” (www.icr.org/article/2033/), “Stalling over Transitional Forms”
(www.icr.org/article/3148/), “Scientific Discoveries Continue to Erode Darwinism” (www.icr.org/article/3191/), and “Optimism in Evolution?” (www.icr.org/article/4031/)
Summerland: On Saturday, Aug. 30 he will be giving two lectures at
Summerland Pentecostal Church (9918 Julia Street): “Dinosaurs and the
Flood” (9:30 a.m.) and “Wonders of the Human Body” (11:00 a.m.) which
will discuss the body’s 11 interacting systems.
