If Evolution has Proof, Why Make Fraudulent Proof? – The Peppered Moth
This is something that I was taught in science classes many times over the
years. In this article entitled: What About The Peppered Moth? Dr. John
Morris, Ph.D. describes it this way:
Here’s the well-told
scenario. In the early 1800s, nearly all of the individual peppered
moths (Biston betularia) were of a light grey, speckled color. Active
mostly at night, they needed to hide by day from predatory birds. Since
trees and rocks were typically covered with mottled light green, gray
lichens, the moths were effectively camouflaged. A rare peppered moth
exhibited a dark color and was easily seen by birds; thus they seldom
survived. On average, over 98% of all the species were of the light
variety, yet with both dark and light were of the same species and were
fully interfertile.
Then came the industrial revolution and the air filled with soot, covering the trees and rocks with a toxic
film, killing the lichens and darkening the trees. Soon the light
variety of moth was easily seen while the darker were camouflaged. By
the turn of the century, 98% of the moths were dark. When English
medical doctor Bernard Kettlewell studied the phenomena in the 1950s, it became “Darwin’s Missing Evidence” natural selection in action. …
Several years ago, this study was found to be faked. Dr. Morris continues:
… And now comes the revelation that Kettlewell’s compelling
argument has not been verified by other investigators (Nature, vol. 396, November 5, 1998, pp. 35,36). Furthermore, we now know that neither
dark nor light moths ever spend their days on exposed tree trunks or
rocks as depicted in the famous textbook pictures. His original
associates have even admitted that the photographs were faked, that the
moths were glued onto the tree. Thus the star witness for evolution has
perjured itself, and knowledgeable evolutionists are recommending it not be used.
Even if this was a true study, all it would prove is
that there was light and dark moths and then light and dark moths after
the industrial revolution. Nothing evolved at all.
