Research out of Brown University has found that cells move in ways that are much more complex than previously thought. It’s yet another example of the complexity of life’s design that consistently surprises biologists.
“We’ve learned that cells move in much more complex ways than previously believed,” said Christian Franck, assistant professor in engineering at Brown [...]

Because of their rigid adherence to a failed framework, Darwinists have continuously been surprised at the sophistication of even the simplest organisms. The researchers examined mycoplasma pneumoniae and found the following.
The inner workings of a supposedly simple bacterial cell have turned out to be much more sophisticated than expected.
An in-depth “blueprint” of an apparently minimalist [...]

Scientific hypotheses can come from anywhere at all (well actually just from an intelligent mind). One important thing I learned about science in graduate school was, it did not matter where your hypothesis originated, it only mattered that it could be tested and falsified in a rigorous, repeatable, and measurable way. Scientific notions can arise [...]
A recent paper finds that organization within bacteria is more complex than previously thought:
Simple visual inspection of bacteria indicated that, at least in some otherwise symmetric cells, structures such as flagella were often seen at a single pole. Because these structures are composed of proteins, it was not clear how to reconcile these observations of [...]
The ribosome is a nanomolecular factory that uses genetic instructions and amino acids to build proteins. If the previous understanding of the functions of the ribosome were not enough evidence for design, new technology has enabled researchers capture nanoscale movements inside the structure and found that the functioning of the ribosome was complicated than previously [...]

Previously, it was considered to be axiomatic that all cells in the human body contained the same DNA. However, recent research found differences between the DNA contained in blood cells and other tissue in the body.
This discovery may undercut the rationale behind numerous large-scale genetic studies conducted over the last 15 years, [...]

From the website NCSE Exposed:
Of course critics of ID (like the folks at the NCSE) should have every right to publish their views within academic circles and should have the full protection of academic freedom. But academic freedom doesn’t just mean the freedom to agree with the predominant viewpoint. Academic freedom in science means nothing [...]
In this post, I seek to take a step back from the ID/evolution debate, and consider things from a Christian perspective. Jesus often spoke in parables, and explained the reason to his disciples:
“The knowledge of the secrets of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. This is why I speak to them [...]
Roddy Bullock has a good new essay up on ARN:
Of Pots and People
Archeologist with simple piece of pottery: Look what I discovered; I wonder who created it.
Scientist: Wow! What a cool pot; who do you think made it?
Biologist with complex piece of DNA [...]
