Gene Complexity Showcases Engineered Versatility - Dec 30, 2024
/article/gene-complexity-showcases-engineeredJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - In the early days of molecular genetics in the 1960s and ’70s, researchers widely held that a gene could be defined as a single, discrete entity that encodes the information to make a protein. However, as genetic research has progressed...
RNA Hoops: When Circular Reasoning Makes Sense - Oct 31, 2024
/article/rna-hoops-when-circular-reasoning-makesJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - If the regulatory picture of the genome were not complicated enough, over the past decade scientists have discovered another level of Darwinian-defying biocomplexity involving a whole new class of molecules in the form of RNA hoops or...
Engineered Parallel Gene Codes Defy Evolution - Aug 30, 2024
/article/engineered-parallel-gene-codesJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - Researchers over the past decade have been characterizing new, previously hidden genetic codes embedded within the same sections of genes that code for proteins—utterly defying all naturalistic explanations for their existence. This same...

Jeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - According to the evolutionary paradigm, complex genetic information in the form of genes and regulatory DNA can randomly evolve through mutations and selection. But this erroneous idea becomes more untenable with every new discovery in the field...

Jeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - A group of birds known as Darwin’s finches live in the Galápagos Islands, which are located in the Pacific Ocean 600 miles west of Ecuador. These birds have been a leading icon for evolutionary research and observations. But do they...

RNA Editing: Adaptive Genome Modification on the Fly - Feb 29, 2024
/article/rna-editing-adaptive-genome-modificationJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - When the workings of the genome were first being discovered, the central evolutionary dogma of molecular biology claimed that genetic information passes consistently from DNA to RNA to proteins. Today we know that RNA messages can be altered by a...
/article/new-y-chromosome-dna-refutes-human-ape-evolution
Jeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - DNA sequencing technologies have been progressing rapidly over the past several decades and now finally afford the opportunity to analyze mammalian chromosomes from end to end. In the past, many regions of human and ape genomes have been very...

Small Heritable RNAs Pack a Big Adaptive Punch - Dec 29, 2023
/article/small-heritable-rnas-pack-big-adaptiveJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - In a previous article, I explained how epigenetic mechanisms regulate the structure and function of DNA.1 Specifically, I showed how small molecules can be attached to the DNA itself or added to the histone proteins that the DNA is packaged with....
Human-Chimp DNA Similarity Research Refutes Evolution - Sep 29, 2023
/article/human-chimp-dna-similarity-researchJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - Purpose An oft-repeated claim of evolutionary propaganda is that the DNA of chimpanzees and humans is 98.5% identical. This high level of DNA similarity is required to bolster the hypothesis that humans and chimps shared a common ancestor...
The Strange Endless Universe Cosmology of Open Theism - Sep 1, 2023
/article/strange-endless-universe-cosmologyJeffrey P. Tomkins, Ph.D. - In Journal of Dispensational Theology. 27 (75): 167-184. Abstract Open theism is a problematic theological paradigm that shares foundational elements with panentheism and process theology. Not only have open theists incorporated secular...
