How Evolutionary Fitness Landscapes Bolster Design Arguments
Imagine a large area with gentle rolling hills and valleys, or perhaps a rugged terrain complete with steep mountains and impassible gullies.
Control Systems in Vertebrate Limbs Further Demonstrate that They Were Designed
Even if one limb suddenly transformed into another, the new limb would prove useless until its control system was entirely reengineered.
Stuart Burgess Overturns the Claim that the ACL Is Poorly Designed
The explanation for ACL injuries is not poor design. Burgess noted in my interview with him that ACL tears were far less frequent in past centuries.
In Animal Joints, Multi-Functioning Challenges Evolution
Joints include good examples of irreducible complexity, such as the knee joint’s four bar linkage or the arched structure of the foot.
Fitness Landscapes Demonstrate Perfection in Vertebrate Limbs Resulted from Intelligent Design
These observations present two dire challenges to undirected evolutionary models.
