Darwinizing Sex Causes Pain
CEH ^ | June 15, 2009

Posted on 06/16/2009 9:20:53 AM PDT by GodGunsGuts

June 15, 2009 — Sex brings pleasure to many, but pain to Darwinists. Why? Because they can’t figure it out. Nick Lane is a case in point. In New Scientist, he wrote...

Well, sex with Darwin would be painful.
He’s been dead for over a hundred years...

Brings true meaning to the term ‘boner’!

I’m glad to hear that yet another FReeper has realized that believing in Darwin’s materialist creation myth is the equivalent of being a flat earth, geocentric, anti-science, Luddite.

If the Darwinist sect of the evolution faith want to have sex with monkeys, it’s their business.

The article is ridiculous on it’s very face. Well, it’s not really an article, it’s more like a blog post without atribution. The argument did not include the full context of Nick Lane’s statement. He was comparing the reproductive strategy (tongue in cheek) of having a single sex that reproduced by making copies of itself versus a seperate sex species that requires spending more energy attracting mates. The post draws simple minded conclusions from their citations.

“Sex improves the efficiency of selection, allowing good genes to recombine away from the junk residing in their genetic backgrounds,” says Otto. “As the good genes spread, they then carry along the sex genes, beating out the genes for cloning, and often overcoming the costs of sex.”

Creationists would correctly recognize sexual reproduction as a method for purging deleterious mutations from the population. Not 100% effective, but slowing the general tendency for deleterious mutations to accumulate in the population gene pool. IOW, it is a fault-tolerant mechanism. Add it to the multiple layers of fault-tolerance built into life in the same way that triplet-codon amino acid coding, DNA error-correcting mechanisms and diploid chromosome structure are fault-tolerant mechanisms.

This also explains excess reproductive capacity. It exists as a buffer to ensure population survival not only from environmental impacts but also as the level of deleterious mutation rises in a population and uses up that excess reproductive capacity through miscarriage and infertility.

The entire biological structure of life from DNA structure, amino acid coding, chromosome structure, reproduction and excess reproductive capacity is designed to resist decay, not to evolve.

Excellent reply, GourmetDan! In other words, unlike the Evos who tie themselves in knots over this, sex makes sense from a creationist perspective!!!

Leave it to the creationists to stick with popular magazines for their critiques.

Here's a more interesting article.

We must expose the Temple of Darwinistic Materialism wherever its tentacles are found to have a stranglehold on the ideology of science. And this is especially needed in the popular scientific press, which is what the vast majority of people read after all.

And thank you for your service.

(How do you get away with sleeping only 3 hours a night?)

I haven’t slept an 8 hour night since I was a teenager - many decades ago. I just don’t shut down. Honestly, I don’t feel unrested either.

As I understand it Leonardo Da Vinci slept three times a day for 20 minutes. He has me beaten by two hours.
