ORIGIN OF LIFE. Why do textbooks claim that the 1953 Miller-Urey
experiment shows how life's building blocks may have formed on the early
Earth — when conditions on the early Earth were probably nothing like those
used in the experiment, and the origin of life remains a mystery?
DARWIN'S TREE OF LIFE. Why don't textbooks discuss the "Cambrian
explosion," in which all major animal groups appear together in the fossil
record fully formed instead of branching from a common ancestor — thus
contradicting the evolutionary tree of life?
HOMOLOGY. Why do textbooks define homology as similarity due to
common ancestry, then claim that it is evidence for common ancestry — a
circular argument masquerading as scientific evidence?
VERTEBRATE EMBRYOS. Why do textbooks use drawings of similarities
in vertebrate embryos as evidence for their common ancestry — even though
biologists have known for over a century that vertebrate embryos are not
most similar in their early stages, and the drawings are faked?
ARCHAEOPTERYX. Why do textbooks portray this fossil as the missing
link between dinosaurs and modern birds — even though modern birds are
probably not descended from it, and its supposed ancestors do not appear
until millions of years after it?
PEPPERED MOTHS. Why do textbooks use pictures of peppered moths
camouflaged on tree trunks as evidence for natural selection — when biologists
have known since the 1980s that the moths don't normally rest on tree trunks,
and all the pictures have been staged?-
DARWIN'S FINCHES. Why do textbooks claim that beak changes in Galapagos
finches during a severe drought can explain the origin of species by natural
selection — even though the changes were reversed after the drought ended,
and no net evolution occurred?
MUTANT FRUIT FLIES. Why do textbooks use fruit flies with an extra
pair of wings as evidence that DNA mutations can supply raw materials for
evolution — even though the extra wings have no muscles and these disabled
mutants cannot survive outside the laboratory?-
HUMAN ORIGINS. Why are artists' drawings of ape-like humans used
to justify materialistic claims that we are just animals and our existence
is a mere accident — when fossil experts cannot even agree on who our supposed
ancestors were or what they looked like?
EVOLUTION A FACT? Why are we told that Darwin's theory of evolution
is a scientific fact — even though many of its claims are based on misrepresentations
of the facts?
