Fossil Friday: The Explosive Origin of Complex Eyes in Trilobites

arthropods, begging the question, Cambrian Explosion, common ancestry, Darwinists, Evolution, evolutionary biology, falsification, Fossil Friday, fossil record, holochroal eyes, immunization, just-so stories, materialists, Molière, opium, paleontology, phylogeny, pseudoscience, schizochroal eyes, Stephen Meyer, trilobites

The theory has been made immune to empirical falsification because it is simply assumed to be true by default as the only viable option for materialists. Source

Ortega-Jimenez

The fossil record shows a “Hexapod Gap.” Unfortunately for Darwin, the two leading theories to explain the gap can be ruled out. Source

Scientific Paper Reaffirms New Genes Required for Cambrian Explosion

arthropods, bilateral symmetry, bilaterians, body plans, Cambrian animals, Cambrian Explosion, Cambrian News, Darwin's Doubt, ecological factors, eLife, Evolution, Evolution News, evolutionary biology, fossil record, genes, genetic information, Günter Bechly, Intelligent Design, Nature Communications, orthology, oxygenation, paleontology, Precambrian, Stephen Meyer

The notion that many genes would be required for the Cambrian explosion may seem unsurprising — what is surprising is that anyone would challenge the idea. Source
