The odds of life just happening by    chance are zero.  <\/p>\n<p>    This universe just springing into being by chance is    impossible. It takes a leap of blind faith to believe in    evolution, unguided or guided. Of course, there are tiny    changes within kinds. It seems to me, usually when the    evolutionists make their case, they point to these tiny    changes.  <\/p>\n<p>    The analogies to the improbability of evolution by a random    process are endless.  <\/p>\n<p>    The odds against our universe, of the earth, of the creation,    to have just come into being with no intelligent design behind    the grand scheme are greater than all of these impossible    scenarios.  <\/p>\n<p>    Forget the works of Shakespeare. What are the odds of a monkey    randomly typing away simply spelling the nine-letter word    evolution by chance? That doesnt sound too hard, does it?  <\/p>\n<p>    Dr. Scott M. Huse, B.S., M.S., M.R.E., Th.D., Ph.D., who holds    graduate degrees in computer science, geology and theology,    wrote a book about creation\/evolution back in the early 1980s,    The Collapse of Evolution. Huse has done extensive study on    these questions of random probability. I had the privilege of    interviewing him about it for Dr. D. James Kennedys television    special, The Case for Creation (1988). It was a type of    Scopes Trial in reverse  filmed on location in Tennessee, in    the very courtroom where the 1925 monkey trial took place.  <\/p>\n<p>    Later, Huse created a computer program to determine the odds of    a monkey typing the word evolution. He notes that the odds    are one in 5.4 trillion, which statistically is the same thing    as zero. Any casino that offered such horrible odds would lose    customers quickly, because no one would ever win. Forgive my    bluntness, but the suckers have to win something before they    start losing big.  <\/p>\n<p>    Heres what Scott told me in an email: The typical personal    computer keyboard has 104 keys, most of which are not letters    from the alphabet. However, if we ignore that fact and say the    monkey can only hit keys that are letters of the alphabet, he    has a one in 26 chance of hitting the correct letter each time.  <\/p>\n<p>    Of course, he has to hit them in the correct sequence as well:    E then V then O, etc. Twenty-six to the power of nine (the    number of letters in the word evolution) equals    5,429,503,678,976.  <\/p>\n<p>    So, the odds of him accidentally typing just the nine-letter    word evolution are about one in about 5.4 trillion.  From a    purely mathematical standpoint, the bewildering complexity of    even the most basic organic molecules [which are much more    complicated than a nine-letter word] completely rules out the    possibility of life originating by mere chance.  <\/p>\n<p>    Take just one aspect of life  amino acids and protein cells.    Dr. Stephen Meyer earned his Ph.D. in the philosophy of science    at Cambridge University. In his New York Times bestselling    book, Darwins Doubt (2013), Meyer points out that the    probability of attaining a correct sequence [of amino acids to    build a protein molecule] by random search would roughly equal    the probability of a blind spaceman finding a single marked    atom by chance among all the atoms in the Milky Way galaxy  on    its face clearly not a likely outcome (Page 183).  <\/p>\n<p>    And this is just one aspect of life, the most basic building    block.  <\/p>\n<p>    In the interview I did with Scott Huse long ago, he noted: The    probability of life originating through mere random processes,    as evolutionists contend, really honestly, is about zero.  If    you consider probability statistics, it exposes the naivet and    the foolishness, really, of the evolutionary viewpoint.  <\/p>\n<p>    Dr. Charles Thaxton was another guest on that classic    television special from 1988. He is a scientist who notes that    life is so complex, the chances of it arising by mere chance is    virtually impossible. Thaxton, now with the Discovery    Institute, has a Ph.D. in physical chemistry, and a    post-doctorate degree in molecular biology and a Harvard    post-doctorate in the history and philosophy of science.  <\/p>\n<p>    Thaxton notes: Id say in my years of study, the amazing thing    is the utter complexity of living things.  Most scientists    would readily grant that however life happened, it did not    happen by chance.  <\/p>\n<p>    The whole creation points to the Creator. Huse sums up the    whole point: Simply put, a watch has a watchmaker and we have    a Creator, the Lord Jesus Christ.  <\/p>\n<p>    Media wishing to interview Jerry Newcombe, please contact    <a href=\"mailto:media@wnd.com\">media@wnd.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Auto Generated --><\/p>\n<p>Visit link:<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2017\/06\/the-odds-of-evolution-are-zero\/\" title=\"The odds of evolution are zero - WND.com\">The odds of evolution are zero - WND.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Zero times anything is zero.
