the scientific end of evolution theory

Dear All,Thesis: 20th and 21st century scientific discoveries shattered the neo-Darwinian theory of evolution, due to:1) chirality of proteins and information carriers (RNA, DNA),
2) irreducible complexity of biochemistry
3) information theory
4) genetic redundanciesI challenge every evolutionist to seriously rebut this thesis.To trigger some response: Evolution theory is a 19th century -- on all levels falsifiable -- hypothesis. It did not at all contribute to our understanding of biology.Best wishes,Peter------------------

Dear Mark,The first thing we have to do is to set the rules and make a couple of definitions.a) What keeps NDT going?
1) randomness and mutation
2) natural selection
3) belief in 1 and 2b) When does the NDT fall?
1) randomness cannot hold
2) natural selection cannot hold
3) predictions done by NDT are wrong/falsifiedAgree?Furthermore, I expect you to read all articles I refer to, otherwise it does not make sense to continue this discussion.Peter "obliterating NDT" Borger

Dear Professor,
Apparently you did not read these papers, but only skimmed the summary. If you had even started reading the paper by Eisen et al (about Chlorobium) you would have noted immediately in the introduction the sentence: "The Chlorobia have unique mechanisms of photosynthesis relative to other phototrophs". What do you think the word unique stands for in evolution theory?
Please do not copy the opinion of others but be objective and read the articles you refer to".
I invite you to be specific in your references and keep it scientifically (i.e. referencees included).
Best wishes,
Peter

I've challenged Peter and Mark that I will overthrow NDT and now we are setting up the rules and definitions.
By the way, your remaining statements have nothing to do with NDT, so I am not going to respond to that.
Peter
