The structure paper he did at Babraham is trash. I was at the Sanger Center at the same time as him and all of us students would meet up in the EBI regularly. His supervisor had a huge fight with him over that paper and refused to be a co-author. It's unheard of for a student to publish without their supervisor being on the paper like that. It was a huge scandal. And he told us he had done the work to prove creationism, and even described how he'd "fixed" the result by how he framed what counted as a functional protein. He is a dishonest, garbage person IMHO.

Just to share my thoughts here, it's not cool to expose this thing that happened to him about a paper. Sometimes when you believe in something you fight for it until you have no more strength in your body. Maybe he believed that his study was right and fought for it. Not cool man. 😢

They like the minds of children because they find it easier to manipulate them. This also lends credance to the "P*do-con theory". The reason conservatives always pretend they want to protect the children is that they want to be the ones to abuse them and assume everybody elses also wants to.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been.

Did that 'cult of ignorance' in America begin with the folks who told Americans "You can't trust anyone (to be king), therefore you have to trust everyone to vote. You can't trust anyone, so you mist trust everyone."? I am just being coy. But seriously, scientific community is going to injure itself if the people who step into leadership roles, preach science instead of teach science. A fitting colocialism. Stated to the whole science community here might be 'check yourself before you wreck yourself'. Oh yes I did say that.😮

This topic is in my wheelhouse. Many of the examples Axe cherry-picks as being “finely tuned” are in classes that are not evolved to tolerate mutations…due to misfolding. There are classes of proteins that are hypertolerant to mutation: for example tailspike proteins that must tolerate mutation and still fold, so they can explore sequence/function space efficiently as part of their adaptation to host receptor mutations. Plus, other proteins co-evolve with their folding partners or chaperones in order to maintain structure/function. I developed folding reporters that have been used to screen naive libraries to identify folded domains that subsequently also contain functional modules or that can substitute as folding partners in protein complexes. (GFP folding reporters and split GFPs). ❤

Davidfitness...,, My biological ancient family in ancient Ireland were considered to be 'God' in as much as 'God' denotes a beging (or fresh start). The name the family had back then was Ui Bhanain which in the old Irish language means Son of The First Lady - and so, like the Biblical scenario of the Jewish 'having no God before the Jewish God' the ancient Irish locals ignored all previous ancestral connections and old grudges, in order to enjoy relative peace and a more well defined beginning than was the previous version laid out in even older Irish oral histories. One can imagine that ancient Irish and other folks who respected or 'worshipped' their ancestors (like Indigenous Americans did or still do) may have restarted their society and histories many times. These fresh starts (or 'creations' if you will) probably required the literary presence of a Virgin Birth - hence my biological ancestors name being Ui Bhanain 'Son of First Lady'. Because other ancient cultures such as the ancient Americans (Who I am also related to via my great grandmother) it is almost certainly the case that the pre-Christian world had many such families scattered around and being used or abused as 'Gods' if not at the very least being used as placeholders for their respective societies, clans or tribes beginning. People like to know where they come from., and they also like domestic peace and a sense of belonging within society. Ancient ways gave people those things which are all very practical and fought off old grudges and bloodshed while promoting equality within their society. When Christianity came to Ireland, my biological ancestors dropped our local charade in order for us to adopted the Jewish ancestor depicted in The Old Testement as God. By doing so, we escaped the bonds if regional biology and our social responsibility to pretend to be something we knew we weren't - God's or the Irish version of the Jew's Adam. We also knew that God The Almighty Creator of All of Creation did not create any of our human ancestors from dust in a literal sense as the Jews believed Adam was. But we didn't worry much about the discrepancy between literal and metaphorical interpretations of Adam (a symbol of the first human). We didn't worry about that because the Jews had long been on a trajectory to understand that Adam had a human father - a man. In The Old Testament Daniel foresaw this biological argument being hashed out by a person whom Daniel referred to as The Son of Man. Much later in human history Jesus repeatedly referred to himself as The Son of Man. In that way, he did not argue against biology. But Jewush leaders did argue against biology for reasons that include their being literalists. Literalism always assume authority. We can see that being the case with some twentieth century literalist such as Adolph Hitler who probably knew he was speaking bullcrap, but many people accepted his 'Arian race' vote-capturing speeches as literal truth. He had a scientific approach to the 1930's challenges Germany faced. His science was of course flawed and resulted in millions of deaths during The Holocaust, but it was 'science'. It was nonsense science, but it was science nonetheless. Of course history documents times when Christians have committed smaller scale atrocities. No lable 'Atheist', 'Christian', 'Muslim', and such guarantees that a person won't slip into literalism that typically closes off other pathways of thought and always assumes unwarranted authority. I suspect that is one of the many reasons that Jesus merely hinted at his knowledge of biology by calling himself The Son of Man, and by doing so leaving it up to people to interpret it as they needed. That was 2,000 years ago. Thanks in part to modern genetic discoveries as well as lessons we learned when science went horribly wrong in the twentieth century, Christians and others can be honest about 'The Son of Man' (Jesus) and about the fact that we are united by a common human ancestors that was preceeded by a pre-human ancestors, that was preceeded by well, you know how the story goes - 'In the begining...' I got a bit off topic, but that roughly describes the Christian sense that too few Christians have the gumption to say publicly. As for the local Irish who used to use my biological ancestors as 'gods' (a starting point for their ancient society), I don't think that their Irish descendants ever forgave us for our part in Christianising Ireland. The local Irish still tell ghost stories about Leap Castle that my biological ancestors built in Coolderry Ireland. Old grudges die hard in people who still claim to believe that fairies live in the forest. Speaking of Ireland reminded me of the shamrock, which of course reminds me of The Trinity; The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit; three parts in one. That concept takes into account that Adam had an Earthly father who people eventually held up as God. The Trinity is not a leap of logic, but it does refer to a very ancient leap of logic when earlier humans made God's out of their anscestors.was it forgivable that early humans did that? Jesus would say yes it was forgivable. Is it forgivable that science such establish authority equivalent to a god (as some science fundementalists do today)? Answer - Probably not, but they will do it anyway because some humans want answers more than they want truth. That is just rhe way many people are. So Davidfitness..., there is some sense in what many people call nonsense. I am genuinly sorry if no Christian ever took the time to explain these modestly complex aspects of Christianity to you. I wish that I could have done a better job of it myself here.

Thank you Dave ! Another example of a search paper abused by creationists is Durrett and Schmidt's "Waiting for Two mutations" (2008) , the paper is discussing a specific type of mutations and a model that can calculate the waiting time for that binding site to evolve (to explain how it evolved in different species of Drosophila, which creationists agree they are the same "kind"). The paper concluded that it is possible for that to happen in reasonable evolutionary time scales, unlike Michael Behe's claim that it would take more than the age of the Universe. But here's the catch, the paper said that prespecified type of mutation would take more than 100 million years, in humans with an effective population size Ne = 10000 (but the model discussed in the paper is NOT about humans) , the fact that creationists used this paper at all to say that 2 mutations need 100 million years, shows how dishonest these people are. Because : Even if a specific mutation needs 100 million years to evolve and become fixed , this doesn't say anything about the probability that ANY other mutation would evolve... waiting for a specific thing is not like waiting for ANYTHING that works. Besides, the paper is only discussing a specific set of binding sites and loci on the genome, and not the whole genome, so the probability of a specific mutation evolving on a specific locus, is way smaller than the probability of ANY working mutation evolving on ANY given locus. And what's funny is that other creationists (Young Earth Creationists) love mutations, and use high mutation and fixation rates, because they would not be able to explain how so much genetic diversity (too many alleles) and heterozygosity was introduced to our gene pool since Adam and Eve, about 6000 years ago, so these guys need a hell lot of mutations to explain that, since the only sources of genetic diversity are mutations and gene flow.

Axe's paper is a wonderful example of the disingenuousness of creationists AND ALSO a great example of how peer review is such a great mechanism for discovering how the world actually works. Axe published his paper, which (errors in methodology aside) presented a reasonable problem for evolutionary biology. That problem being the unlikelihood of functional proteins evolving "by accident". But, peers reviewed that paper, pointed out the flaws in Axe's reasoning, and then did their own experiments (in good faith) to show that in practice, the problem isn't nearly as deal-breaking as Axe proposed it was. That is peer review at work! That is why the scientific process works! But then, because creationists are dishonest and do not act in good faith, they don't bother to follow-up with how the original paper was received by the scientific community, nor bother to correct the mistakes of that paper. They go on citing the original paper as if it represents the cutting edge of scientific knowledge, and as if no one has refuted it.

To him, a child's actions of eating a tide-pod might just be so 9000+IQ, he can't conceive it. And we thought Warhammer 40k's line of "blessed is the mind too small to doubt" was reaching.
