Reasons why it's impossible to believe in the theory of evolution

Seriously?

Reasons why it's impossible to believe in the theory of evolution.

  1. Dinosaur soft tissues, blood vessels, red blood cells, and even DNA discoveries. How could any soft tissue or organic material be preserved for millions of years? It's not possible. The half-life of DNA is 521 years which means that after 50,000 years there shouldn't be any recognizable DNA left in the sample. It has been difficult to analyze DNA from soldiers who died in WWII war, so claims that dinosaurs lived 65 million years ago are absurd. For DNA to be preserved even for over 4,000 years, it needs special conditions, such as rapid burials.

  2. DNA doesn't dictate organismal traits or characteristics. This is easily understood by examining mechanisms that regulate cellular differentiation. For example, in a human body, there are ~300 different cell types and the same DNA can be found in all of them (there are only a couple of exceptions). This means that DNA doesn't determine cell identity, tissue type, organ shape and function, or body plan. DNA is just passive information that needs epigenetic information to be read correctly. Epigenetic mechanisms control DNA and this is why change in organisms is based on epigenetic modifications.

  3. We can observe only epigenetic modifications or information loss in organisms living in the wild. There are over 2 million harmful mutations in the human genome worldwide, and every newborn brings 100-200 novel germline mutations into the human genome. The total absence of random, beneficial mutations proves that evolution is not taking place.

  4. Methylated cytosines are prone to turn to thymines in deamination caused by oxidative stress (for example, induced by UV light). This inevitable phenomenon has serious consequences: 

    • Gradually the GC content of the genome turns to AT content.
    • The genetic diversity decreases. Low genetic diversity is the most significant reason for the loss of biodiversity.
    • High AT content results in CFSs (common fragile sites), which are the main reason for chromosome fusions and a need for DNA rearrangements.
    • Low GC content can be observed in pathogenic bacteria and viruses and venomous or toxic organisms.
    • CpG islands, important epigenetic regulatory areas, only collapse.

  5. We can observe mechanical structures functioning in the cell with accuracy and efficiency far better than in human-engineered engines. The best example is MO-1 marine bacterium which has seven ion flow motors synchronized with a 24-gear planetary gearbox.

  6. Cellular information handling mechanisms are far more advanced than human-engineered software programming solutions. Complex DNA repair machinery, redundant biological codes, and especially histone markers functioning like a top modern database point to designed mechanisms, not random mutation-driven evolution.

    Histone epigenetic markers function like a top modern database regulating and guiding thousands of cellular jobs. Modifications are inheritable by using non-coding RNA molecules.
  7. There is not a single scientific (observed, verified, repeated, measured) evidence for evolution. All we can observe is rapid epigenetic adaptation resulting in loss of information and a need for DNA rearrangement. The best example is Lenski's experiment (LTEE): After ~90,000 generations (just in 35 years) of bacteria we haven't seen a single evolutionary event, but the bacteria have lost ~3% of their DNA.
Seriously, you are free to believe in evolution even without scientific evidence, but please let people with inquiring and rational minds make conclusions that there is an intelligent Creator behind life and biodiversity.
