## PREFACE

__

**WHY THIS BOOK?**

During recent philosophical discussions

with my son on the different ethical subjects

of life, from the Greek mythological gods to

the idea of euthanasia, we came to the

conclusion that there was a need to

assemble a clear document or thesis

concerning our origins.

Did it occur by the process of the evolution theory, which has become a

cornerstone of modern science, or by design also known as creation,

which is often referred to not as a scientific, but as a religious point of

view.

I was invited to be the recorder in 'The Scopes Retrial - Evolution and

Creation' court case, which for me personally was most enlightening. It

was good to see the evidence from both sides and it was an honour for

me to be called upon to record this case.

The recording leaves the reader free to decide between facts and

fiction, between circumstantial evidence and religion.

The names of the honourable Lord Justice and of both witnesses for

evolution and creation have been changed due to the sensitivity of the

case.

The court has ruled that it should be a completely

**FREE DOWNLOAD** at the recorder's website **www.johanpeters.in**

and at **www.issuu.com**

Hard copies can be requested from the above sites.

I invite you to attend this controversial court case and it is my desire

that it may shed light and give you a clearer understanding concerning

both approaches to our origins.

It is a free download, as this is the court's desire, in the hope that it will

be scientifically helpful for students, who often cannot afford the high

costs of a book with colour photographs and valuable information.

_**'In the Beginning. . . then What?'** _ is a study guide as well as a teaching

manual for both evolution and creation.

_For those interested in the evolution explanation, the related sections_

_are marked with the 'Homo Sapiens', written in italic Cambria font._

For those interested in the creation account, the associated texts

are marked with the ―Atom‖.

__

**WHY PART TWO?**

Due to the importance of the case, half of the international members of

the Jury were chosen from the academic and science community and

the other half are representing the major world religions.

The personal and controversial questions from these Jurors concerning

their religion have been edited out, as these have no bearing on the

case and are published in _**'Part 2 - My Controversial Client'.**_

**THE JOHN SCOPES TRIAL - 1925**

The **Scopes Trial** , formally known as _**The State of**_

_**Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes**_ and commonly referred

to as the **Scopes Monkey Trial** , was an American legal

case in 1925 in which a substitute high school

teacher, **** John Scopes **,** was accused of violating Tennessee's **** Butler Act **,** which made it unlawful to teach

human **** evolution in any state-funded school.

The trial was deliberately staged to attract publicity to

the small town of Dayton, Tennessee **,** where it was held.

Scopes was unsure whether he had ever actually taught

evolution, but he purposely incriminated himself so that

the case could have a defendant.

Scopes was found guilty and fined $100 (equivalent to

$1,349 in 2015), but the verdict was overturned on a

technicality.

The trial served its purpose of drawing intense national

publicity, as national reporters flocked to Dayton to

cover the big-name lawyers who had agreed to

represent each side. William Jennings Bryan **,** three-time

presidential candidate, argued for the prosecution,

while Clarence Darrow **,** the famed defense attorney,

spoke for Scopes.

The trial publicized the Fundamentalist–Modernist

Controversy **,** which set Modernists **,** who said evolution

was

not

inconsistent

with

religion

against

Fundamentalists, who said the word of God as revealed

in the **** Bible ****took priority over all human knowledge.

The case was thus seen as both a theological contest and

a trial on whether evolution / modern science should be

taught in schools.

## CHAPTER 1

****

**ALL RISE, INTRODUCTION**

―All Rise – Presiding over the case 'Evolution and Creation' will be the

right honourable Lord Justice Dr. E. Dict.‖

The Lord Justice speaks:

―Dear members of the Jury, welcome. It is good to see that you arrived

safely. Today is Wednesday. Most of you arrived over the weekend

with some extra time to rest. The trial concerning evolution and

creation is reopened, as it is imperative to bring clarity to the confusion

that exists around the subject of how we, and the world we live in,

came into existence.

Seeing the original Scopes Trial in 1925, was a criminal case in the U.S.

Criminal court of Tennessee, we will open 'The Scopes Retrial' as a

criminal case.

However that particular court case became more a publicity stunt, with

emotions running high and accusations flying. As long as I will preside

over the case, I will not allow it to deteriorate into a media muddle,

hence the press will not be present in the court room.

The main person

responsible for the

evolution process is

Mr. Charles Darwin.

Mr. Darwin is not present,

as he expired in the year

1882.

11

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The witness for evolution is Professor E. Colog, Ph.D.

He will refer to Mr. Darwin's writings and other supporting evidence.

_His related pages and accounts will be marked with the 'Homo_

_Sapiens', written in italics Cambria font._

The responsibility for the creation process lies with Mr. D. Vine, also

known as God. Mr. D. Vine has chosen to remain silent and refers to

his writings.

He has declined to be present in person, as according to him the

absence of both parties will give the jury a more objective insight into

the case.

The witness for creation, is Mr.

N. Voy, and he also will refer to

the writings of his client and

other supporting evidence.

His related pages and

accounts

will

be

marked with the 'Atom'.

The twelve international members of the Jury will go by the

circumstantial evidence.

Six of the Jurors are chosen to represent the academic and scientific

community, while the other six members represent their country and

their country's general religion.

**THE MAIN RESPONSIBILITY OF THE JURY IS TO DECIDE**

**BETWEEN FACT AND FICTION,**

**BETWEEN HARD EVIDENCE AND RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.**

****

In criminal law **** circumstantial evidence is used in courts to establish

guilt or innocence through reasoning.‖

12

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The Lord Justice continues: ―I quote the cases of,

_The_ _State v Busak_ , where the court stated:

' _If there is evidence calling for an answer and an accused person chooses_

_to remain silent in the face of such evidence, a court may well be entitled_

_to conclude that the evidence is sufficient in the absence of an_

_explanation to prove the guilt of the accused._ ' _1_

AND

T _he State v Tshabalala,_ where was said that after facing the accused

with direct and credible evidence:

' _One is bound to conclude that the totality of the evidence taken in_

_conjunction with his silence excluded any doubt his guilt._ ' _2_

Witnesses from both sides shall present their evidence in accordance to

the writings of the parties they represent, also referred to as **their**

**clients.**

When the Jury has made their decision to name the accountable party

then it will be my responsibility as the judge to decide on the

appropriate sentence.

This sentence will be influenced by a number of factors: principally the

circumstances of the case and the impact that the crime has had on the

victim(s).

13

1. The State v Busak [2000] ZACC 25; 2001 (1) SACR 1 par. 24,

2. The State v Tshabalala 2003 (1) SACR 134 (SCA)

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

For those present who are less familiar with the court proceedings the

definition of criminal case is:

_'Prosecution by the State of a person or organization, for committing a public_

_wrong considered an offense against the State.'_

State meaning a people permanently occupying a fixed territory bound

together by common habits.

The case 'Evolution and Creation' is now officially reopened." __

**EVOLUTION EXPLAINED**

―Witnesses, please introduce yourselves in brief and give an

explanation of your presentations.

We call on the Professor to speak on behalf of evolution.‖

_"Your Honour, honourable Jury, I am Professor E. Colog at the_

_Biological Research University. I hold a Ph.D. in the field of Natural_

_Selection and am awarded a doctorate in Organismal Biology and_

_Biological Diversity._

__

_I would like to present my case in three parts:_

_1. An explanation of the biological evolution, which includes natural_

_selection, carbondating, etc. During my rationalizations I will be_

_frequently referring to elucidating works of the Smithsonian_

_Institute._

_2. The effect that evolution has on the present development of mankind._

_3. In closing I would like to show the importance and honours bestowed_

_on my client, Mr. Darwin._ ‖ __

―Let the witness on behalf of creation introduce himself.‖

―Your Honour, honourable members of the Jury, I am Mr. N.

Voy.

I would also like to represent my client in three parts.

1. The evidence supporting the writings of my client.

2. The biological evidence to support my client.

3. To present circumstantial and scientific evidence and to explain

in simple terms the main goals and plans of my client for

mankind.‖

15

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The honourable Justice speaks:

―As Justice presiding over the case I would like to reiterate that only

circumstantial evidence will be accepted for your points of

presentation.

We call on the Professor to take the witness stand for evolution.‖

_"Honourable Justice and Jury, I present a_

_photograph of Herbert Spencer as first_

_introduction. I wish to refer to Mr. Spencer as_

_he was an admirer of Mr. Darwin._

_Mr. Spencer influenced the structural-_

_functionalist perspective, he coined the phrase_

_'survival of the fittest', wrote over 30 books and_

_gave understanding to the positive and_

_negative aspects of social Darwinism._

_He stated that nothing can exist without these_ **Herbert Spencer 1820-1903**

_five basics:_

__

_**Time, Energy (or Force), Action, Space and Matter.**_

_This is evidence enough in itself that tangible hard facts are more important_

_than religious beliefs._

_All things around us exist because of these five basic factors, not because of_

_some fanatical belief in an unseen creator, forced on us by people that are_

_too weak to stand on their own and need a God and creation as a crutch to_

_help them face their difficulties in life._

__

_We are down-to-earth evolutionists and we believe that Mother Earth gave_

_us life and hence we need to preserve her."_

Someone shouts from the balcony: ―Yeah, Yeah. It is so good that

someone finally says it like it is.‖

―ORDER IN THE COURT‖

16

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

―I object, Your Honour, I object to the Professor making

personal statements on belief and religion, while the court

has ruled that only circumstantial hard evidence will be accepted.‖

―Objection on behalf of creation sustained! I

would like to ask for two security guards on both

the balconies. Security, please remove those that

will shout from the balcony. We will let this

comment pass, but the next person shouting will

be removed.

Anything that you would like to add, Professor?‖

_"No, thank you."_

―Let Mr. N. Voy speak on behalf of creation.‖

―Your Honour, members of the Jury, I want to expound on

the argument presented by the Professor and refer to the first

sentence of my client's first book, where it states,

_**'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.' 1**_

In this first sentence we find these five basics that are quoted by the

Professor: _'In the beginning_ (which stands for **TIME** ) _God_ (being

**ENERGY** or **FORCE** ) _created_ (is the **ACTION** ) _the heavens_ ( **SPACE** ) _and the earth_ ( **MATTER** ) _.'_

My client's first books date from approximately 1500 B.C. and the

writing of Mr. Spencer from his lifetime 1820-1903 A.D.

Seeing that the parents of Mr. Spencer held firm religious convictions,

which includes the study of my client's writing, I can only assume that

Mr. Spencer came to this conclusion after studying the writings of my

client.

I think that if my client were present he would agree to my

assumption, as well as the down-to-earth view of the Professor to

preserve Mother Earth.‖

_The Professor stands up,_

_"I object! The client of Mr. N. Voy is not present, so he cannot assume_

_that his client will agree."_

―Objection sustained!

Anything you wish to add Mr. N. Voy?‖

―Not on this point, Your Honour, except the Professor

presenting a photograph of Herbert Spencer is hardly

circumstantial evidence.‖

―We will now take a 30-minute recess.

The doors of the courtroom will close in 25 minutes at 10:55.‖

__________

The clock shows 11:00.

―We call on you, Professor, to present us concrete evidence concerning

the process of evolution.‖

_"Your Honour, until recently we understood the world to be 4.6 billion_

_years, however new evidence shows that the world is much older and_

_approximately 13.8 billion years. It all started with a tremendous,_

_unthinkable explosion of a highly compressed miniscule grain of matter._

_This is known as "the Big Bang", which was so powerful that through its_

_centrifugal force it hurled the stars and planets into the universe and their_

_consequent orbits. Later on Lemaitre 1 referred to it as the explosion of the_

_superatom._

―Objection, Your Honour, there are too many flaws in this

centrifugal theory!‖

―Objection overruled! Mr. N. Voy, you will get your turn to speak. We

cannot and will not stop this case for every disagreement. Please be

seated. Thank you.

Please continue, Professor.‖

_"On the Earth due to the circumstances of the climate, life started_

_evolving. It started with the humble beginnings of single cells_

_multiplying in the humidity of the seas and oceans, which over millions and_

_millions of years developed into micro organisms that eventually formed_

_into little creatures._

__

_One good example that we see still in today's nature is that of the tiny_

_tadpole fish, which develops from a tiny egg._

_After some time it spontaniously grows little legs and eventually develops_

_into a frog. This example develops in a relatively short time, however over_

_the hundreds of millions of years many species of animal life have evolved._

_Before the ice age the climate on Earth was different, plant life on Earth was_

_more lush and due to this abundant vegetation we have seen the different_

_reptiles evolve into very outsized dinosaurs and other simular creatures._

Mr. N. Voy has been on the edge of his seat and finally bursts

out, ―Your Honour, I object. This is not circumstantial

evidence. These theories are the figments of someone's imagination.‖

get your chance to speak. I have said earlier that it is for the jury to

_Thank you, this is all that I have on this point._ ‖

The honourable Lord Justice comments,

―Professor, thank you for your presentation. Gentlemen, I urge you

both, to keep this objective and restrain yourself from making personal

comments.

Thank you. The court now takes a one-hour recess for lunch and

refreshment.

In exactly one hour at 1:30 the court will call upon Mr. N. Voy to make

****

**GIANTS, HOAXES, EARTH'S AGE, MOONDUST**

―ORDER IN THE COURT!‖

―The court will now resume and calls on the witness for creation, Mr.

N. Voy, to take the stand.‖

―Your Honour, members of the Jury, it has been a long time

hobby from me to research history and I have always been

fascinated by the different theories concerning our origin.

My parents were simple, honest, business people that taught me

honesty above all and lying had no place in our family life. Since

childhood I have been interested how it all fits together. The last book

in the world that I wanted to read was the writing of my client.‖

_"Objection! Your Honour, let Mr. N. Voy present evidence and not_

_emotional slob."_

―Objection overruled, let the witness speak! I urge you, Professor, to

keep your comments objective.

Mr. N. Voy, please keep your introduction short and to the point and

go on with presenting your evidence.‖

―Your Honour, the Professor has explained how we evolved

from primate apes.

During the recess I studied the charts. I am what you call a down-to-

earth person.

I have never seen in my whole life an actual tree, that was not grafted,

bear different kinds of fruit. An apple tree produces apples, a pear tree

gives us pears, and a coconut tree gives coconuts, and lemons grow on

lemon trees, etc.

27

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Except of course a Christmas tree that is there for decoration

and enjoyment, but no person, not even the children, believe

that it naturally grows stars, bells and angels, etc.

In the writings of my client he writes in his first chapter,

_**'each after its kind.' 1**_ ****

To any level headed person it is clear that this chart is not based in

reality, but is the figment of some confused, evolutionist mind.‖

__

_"Objection! Objection! If I need to keep things objective and refrain_

_from personal comments then this should also count for this ignorant_

_creationist._

_He totally does not understand the amount of research and intellectual_

_discussions that have gone into developing these charts and these are not_

_apple trees. These represent millions of years in the evolutionary_

_development of mankind."_

―Objection sustained! Mr. N. Voy, please give your presentation. It is

for the Jury to decide whether these charts are based in reality. Proceed

with your presentation.‖

―Your Honour, according to the evolution presentation we

evolved from creatures that were smaller than us and

throughout time we grew more in size and intelligence to our present

day status.

Hence, I would like to present some photographs of circumstantial

evidence that differ from this theory.

In my client's first book, also known as Genesis, he writes in chapter 6

verse 4,

_**'There were giants in the earth in those days' 2**_

_"Objection, objection, objection – the witness is bringing fables and_

_children's bedtime stories into the courtroom."_

but this is becoming a laughing stock!‖

All present burst out laughing.

―ORDER IN THE COURT! Security, please remove the person that

shouted from the balcony.

Silence. I repeat, order in the court! Any more comments from the

balcony and we will clear the courtroom completely.

The objection is overruled. Let the witness speak and present his

evidence, but it had better be clear circumstantial evidence and no

more theoretical arguments.‖

―Your Honour, I will present my first evidence:

Several pages of photographs concerning excavations to show

that there were actual giants living on this Earth. To show that I am not

talking fables or fairy tales, I present also several newsarticles.

Your Honour, members of the Jury the following photographs are

excavations from all over our planet.‖

There is evidence galore and they are discovered all over the planet:

Romania, Saudi-Arabia, India, U.S.A, Mongolia, Greece and on

every continent.

Your Honour, the **AIAA** (American Institution of Alternative

Archeology **)** states that **a US Supreme Court ruling** has forced the

**Smithsonian Institution** to release classified papers in 2015, dating

from the early 1900′s, which show that **thousands of giant human**

**remains were ordered destroyed** by high level administrators. 1

The Smithsonian had sued the AAIA for defamation. A turning point

of the court case was when a 1.3 meter long human femur bone, was

shown as evidence in court by Smithsonian whistleblowers.‖

Your Honour, honourable members of the Jury, there is ample proof of

giant skeletons, but they ‗miraculously' disappear as quickly as they

are excavated and are promptly with the utmost secrecy taken away

for ‗further research', while excavation areas are declared no-fly zone.

I cannot help but think that,

\- someone has a few skeletons in his cupboard -‖

There is a chuckle in the court, but not all are in agreement and others

are getting irritated. While some whisper, ―This is amazing‖, others

sneer, ―We don't have to listen to this idiotic nonsense.‖

―Your Honour, according to the writing of my client the world

is approximately a little over 6,000 years old.‖

Someone shouts from the balcony,

―Can he shut up with this nonsense?‖

From the opposite balcony another shouts back angrily, ―Can you shut

up and let this man speak!‖

―I'll see you after the court is over you damned, #@%$&, sick-in-your-

―Security, please remove the gentleman on the left balcony that

shouted these intimidations!‖

There is a bit of a shuffle and loud screaming of profanities. Then the

door closes, the sounds and protests are fading and it is silent again.

―Mr. N. Voy, please proceed.‖

―Your Honour, like I said, according to my client the Earth is

approximately 6,000 years old and there have been literally

tens of thousands of giant skeletons found all over the world.

What I cannot understand is that if the world is 4.6, or 13.8 billion years

old and man has been evolving for the last 7 million years from one

stage to another, **how come we are not over our head into skeletons of**

**these different evolutionary stages, just like we excavate the**

**skeletons of giants?**

**THE** **WORLD POPULATION:**

****

It is estimated that the world population reached one billion for the

first time in 1804. As of March 2012, it reached 7 billion. Statistics are

from the United States Census Bureau (USCB) 1

35

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_Seven_Billion

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

So over the space of a good 200 years the population

multiplied by 7.

If according to evolution the Homo Sapiens (that is us humans)

developed 40,000 years ago, then we have 40,000 : 200 = 200 periods of

200 years.

Hence, Your Honour, each 200 years the population multiplies 7 times.

However due to harsh living conditions, disease, lack of medical

supplies and fighting off dinosaurs, we will say that instead of

multiplying 7 times, **we make it generous towards the evolution**

**theory and we say that the population only doubled every 200 years**

**instead of 7 times.**

Hence, after 11,000 years we have 55 periods of 200 years.

That is 2 to the power of 55, or 255, or

2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x

2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = that is a

whopping **36.028.797.018.963.968**

36 quadrillion, 28 trillion, 797 billion, 18 million, 963 thousand and 968

people **after 11,000 years**.

After 11,000 year we would have almost 5,000,000 (five million) times

the present day population of 7.4 billion.

The world land area is 510,100,000 km2 or 510,100,000,000,000 mtr2.

That means that some 29,000 years ago we should have

36,028,797,018,963,968 **:** 510,100,000,000,000 = 70 per meter2.

**70 people per square meter already 29,000 years ago.**

Now 29,000 years later we would be standing shoulder to shoulder

world-wide probably 1,000 feet deep.

I cannot help but think, Your Honour, that something is wrong with

the time frames of the evolution theory. There are other statistics of the

world population doubling between 20 and 35 years. **1**

However I wanted to be generous to avoid arguments, but no matter

what, it just does not make any sense, nor fit.

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Since according to my client we have roughly 4½ thousand

years since the flood occurred, I think that somehow the

present day population of 7.4 billion seems more correct and fits better.

****

**CENTRIFUGAL FORCE** OF THE BIG BANG

Your Honour, I objected earlier concerning the centrifugal force. With

this my apologies, as I should have just waited till it was my turn to

speak.

The centrifugal force of the big bang theory that orbited the planets

into space, leaves me with some questions.

Seeing that it was the same centifugal force that orbited all the planets,

it only makes sense to me that all the planets, as spinoffs, spin or rotate

on their axis in the same direction.

At least I would say definitely in our solar system. They should all spin

like the Earth rotates from right to left or eastwards.

However Venus, Uranus and Pluto rotate from left to right or

westward on their axis.

37

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

I am sure someone will come up with a new theory, or has

already explained it away with a new speculation of how the

‗contra centrifugal rotational dynamics' took place, and occurred

several times around 3 to 3½ billion years ago.

This, along with other more complex and complicated language that

nobody understands, will ‗explain' why Pluto, Venus and Uranus turn

left to right or westward, instead of eastward, which is the case with

the other planets in our solar system.

Your Honour, we don't require a Ph.D., to see that something does not

add up.

**HOAXES**

For instance, we take as

example the Piltdown man,

which turned out to be a

purposely false hoax, 40

long years after it was

'discovered' by Dawson and

Smith.

Your Honour, the point that

I am trying to make is that

for 40 long years it was

taught in our schools and

confused the young minds

of a whole generation in

their studies.

In 1912 the Piltdown man

‗discovery' was publicized. It

was however constructed by

using the jawbone belonging

to an orangutan, which they

had soaked in potassium, so

it would look like a fossil. **1**

38

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Dr. A. J. E. Cave, explained

in 1958, at the Congress of

Zoology that **the Homo**

**Neanderthalensis** was the

skeleton

of

an

older

gentleman

who

had

suffered from arthritis. **1**

Your Honour, yet he

remains part of our school

text books till this very day.

The **Heidelberg man** was constructed by the inspiration of a jawbone

that was considered by many to be quite human. However, he is

another missing link in the tree of evolution.

Your Honour, I am sure that, like many others, you have wondered

what body part was used to construct the **Homo Erectus**?‖

There is a slight chuckle on the otherwise serious face of the Lord

Justice, ―Please continue, but be careful.‖

―Your Honour, members of the Jury, if evolution is true why

can we not find complete skeletons of the missing links, like

we do of the giants? Why do they have to be constructed by the

inspiration of someone's imagination, with only a tooth or jaw-bone or

a piece of skull, that are not even excavated in the same place?

**LUCY - A MISSING LINK**

complete skeleton of a 3-year-old female from the

ape-man species represented by 'Lucy'. . . .

'It's pretty unbelievable' to find such a complete fossil from

that long ago, said scientist Fred Spoor. 'It's a once-in-a-

lifetime find.' Spoor is professor of evolutionary anatomy at University

College London. . .

. . . Judging by how well it was preserved, the skeleton may have come

from a body that was quickly buried by sediment in a **flood** , the

researchers said.' **1**

'Recently however, it has been revealed that Lucy (Australopithecus

afarensis) had an anatomy ideally suited to climbing trees and was **no**

**different from other apes** . . .

The French scientific journal **'Science et Vie'** covered the story in 1999

under the headline **"Adieu, Lucy"**.

****

**Tel Aviv University** anthropologists determined that **Lucy"s lower jaw**

**bone is some kind of gorilla jaw bone**. . . As a result, the evolutionary

researchers concluded that **LUCY SHOULD NO LONGER BE**

**CONSIDERED MAN"S DIRECT ANCESTOR**. **' 2**

Yet **Lucy remains part of the big evolutionary exhibitions to promote**

**science. 3**

**Lucy at the**

**Am**

**erican Museum**

But what

Science I ask?

**Modern**

**Science is the**

**answer**.

Your Honour, honourable Jury, what does Modern Science entail?

Can we throw all the basic scientific principles overboard in Modern

Science, so we don't have to stick to facts anymore?

I was always taught that science was based on facts and that science

means reasoning, but sticking to the facts.

marks on his chart of ‗Our Human

Phylogeny'.

Your Honour, to the contrary, my client

leaves us with no questions in his writings. He answers everything and

everything fits water tight.

**AGE OF THE EARTH**

****

The Professor explained about the Earth's age being an estimated 4.6

billion years old, according to the theory of evolution, or as new

discoveries point to 13.8 billion years. 2

I would like to explain that it may very well be different according to

my client's writing. Like I said earlier, according to my client the world

is approximately 6000 years old.

How did we come up with that number?

My client faithfully recorded the age of the father when his wife gave

birth to a son.

**THE MOON DUST CONTROVERSY**

****

**(Following calculations are by Hans Pettersson, Swedish**

**Oceanographic Institute)**

Every year there settles a certain amount (5,000,000 tons) of space dust

on the planets and moons. Calculating that the Earth is anywhere

around 5 billion years old, there should be 182 feet (55.5 metres) of

space dust on the moon.

These calculations are

outdated and have

received a lot of

criticism as new data is

now available. As I am

sure the Professor will

have

studied

the

subject too.

I thought it was

interesting to bring this

up as that was the

calculation at that time

and it was one of the main reasons that the Apollo 11 had long fold out

legs with big dishes at the end to **prevent it from sinking in the dust.**

However to everyone's **surprise there was only a quarter of an inch of**

**space dust on the moon** , which is approximately **6 MILLIMETERS.** ‖ ****

__

_"'NASA and the USSR have not ignored this technical issue (of space_

_to the health of satellites and space stations. (In 1998, more than 600_

―Mr. N. Voy, please continue.‖

―Your Honour, while the Professor was presenting this

material, I used my calculator and made the following

calculation according to what the Professor presented.

40,000 : 5,000,000 x 182 = 1.456 feet or 44 cm of spacedust on the moon.

This is still a big difference to the less than 1 cm which was discovered

by the astronauts on the moon.

If we take the evolution age of the Earth as 4.6 billion years

(4,600,000,000), we do the following calculation of 1 cm : 44 cm x

4,600,000,000 = roughly 100,000,000 (100 million) years.

Your Honour, if this is correct, it means that according to this

theory the world is 100 million years old, while the evolution

theory says it is 4.6 billion years and now 13.8 billion years old.

Anyway true or false, it would send the whole evolution theory in a

**"MOONDUST MYSTERY SOLVED WITH APOLLO MISSION**

‗A revisited trove of data from NASA's Apollo mission more than **40**

The rate may seem slow by the

standards of Earth, but it's 10 times

faster than scientists had believed

before, and it means moon dust

could pose big problems for astronauts and equipment alike.

The Lunar Dust Detector, (see photograph) attached to the leftmost

corner of this experiment package left by the Apollo 12 astronauts,

made the first measurement of lunar dust accumulation. As the

device's three solar panel became covered by dust, the voltage they

produced dropped.

www.johanpeters.in

Concerning the moondust, I am sure that someone will

develop a new theory with highly complicated and difficult

to understand terminology to undermine these facts.

It will be a language that I and other common people don't understand

so we give up reading, thinking we must be not be intelligent enough,

as we don't understand all these complicated theories and names.

For example we have:

Gharialis Curvirostris, Palaeoloxodon Namadicus, Dittmarites

Trailliformis, Orthis (Plectorthis) Spitiensis, Spriferina Stracheyi,

Achrochordiceras

Balarama,

Cyathophyllum

Helianthoides,

Hemiptychina Crebriplicata, and then we have the **Australopithecus**

**Africanus,** which means the African Monkey.

**My question is, _'_** **Does anyone really know what we are talking about,**

**or are we playing hide and seek in a maze of illogical, complicated,**

**not understandable vocabulary and theories? _'_** ****

Dr. Einstein said,

'If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.'

and

"If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you don't understand it

yourself."

The Professor states that, 'It all started with a tremendous, unthinkable

explosion of a highly compressed miniscule grain of matter.'

From what we gather the force of the explosion orbited not only our

solar system into space but also the universe and the galaxies.

****

This is saying that something smaller than this dot **.** by exploding off

the page can create a whole new universe with suns, planets, earth,

moons, stars and eventually human beings.

My question is that in making this statement am I reducing myself, or

at least the size of my brain, to the magnitude of this dot?

Your Honour, it is not my aim to prove the Professor wrong, it is my

―Professor E. Colog will take the stand on behalf of evolution.‖

__

__

_"Your Honour, I would like to bring to everyone's attention that the_

_age of the Earth is not established by measuring some dust in outer_

_space, nor by the sum total of ages of some long gone generation in a_

_religious book._

_These time frames are established by the scientific 14C method in which_

_there are three principal isotopes of carbon which occur naturally - C12,_

_C13 (both stable) and C14 (unstable or radioactive)._

_These isotopes are present in the following amounts C12 - 98.89%, C13 -_

_1.11% and C14 - 0.00000000010%._

_Thus, one carbon 14 atom exists in nature for every 1,000,000,000,000 (1 in_

_a trillion) C12 atoms in living material._

_The radiocarbon method is based on the rate of decay of the radioactive or_

_unstable carbon isotope 14 (14C), which is formed in the upper atmosphere_

_through the effect of cosmic ray neutrons upon nitrogen 14._

_The reaction is:_

_**14N + n = > 14C + p** _

__

_(Where n is a neutron and p is a proton)._

_The 14C formed is rapidly oxidised to 14CO2 and enters the Earth's plant and_

_animal life ways through photosynthesis and the food chain. The rapidity of_

_the dispersal of C14 into the atmosphere has been demonstrated by_

_measurements of radioactive carbon produced from thermonuclear bomb_

_14C also enters the Earth's oceans in an atmospheric exchange and as_

_dissolved carbonate (the entire 14C inventory is termed the **carbon**_

_**exchange reservoir** (Aitken, 1990)). _

__

_Plants and animals which utilise carbon in biological food chains take up_

_14C during their lifetimes._

_They exist in equilibrium with the C14 concentration of the atmosphere,_

_that is, the numbers of C14 atoms and non-radioactive carbon atoms stay_

_approximately the same over time._

_As soon as a plant or an animal dies, they cease the metabolic function of_

_carbon uptake; there is no replenishment of radioactive carbon, only decay."_

__

The Justice and half the

Jury seem lost with the

explanation.

One of the Jury asks if

the Professor could put

it in simple terms that

she,

not

being

a

scientist, will be able to

understand.

_"Not really, as this is the scientific process by which we date items_

_and the age of the Earth etc._

_This is also strong evidence that the client of Mr. N. Voy is nothing but a_

_fancy fable and actually a childish hoax."_

―May I object, Your Honour? I would like to ask the Professor

to refrain from making personal derogatory statements about

my client.‖

―Objection sustained! Please, Professor, let us simply stick to the

material on carbon dating. Anything that you would like to add,

Professor?‖

50

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

― _Yes, your Honour. I have never given a lecture like this to anyone_

_that did not understand me. It is difficult for me to defend scientists_

_and scolars that spent years of agony figuring out our origins._

_Scientists that have gotten Nobel prizes_

_for this, and here I am defending their_

_work and theories to an, I am sorry to_

_say, ignorant audience that doesn't_

_understand even the simple formula of_

_carbon dating._

_I could walk out of this courtroom right_

_now, but then I would leave the floor_

_totally to this religious fanatical_

_nutcase, which I do not want to do, as_

_their whole itinerary and objective is to_

_promote a God that does not exist. I have_

_spoken."_

There is an awkward silence and it is totally quiet in the courtroom,

until someone on the right balcony works up the bravery to clear his

throat.

The Justice also clears his throat and looks towards the Jury asking,

―How do you feel? Shall we continue, dear members of the Jury?‖

―Yes, Your Honour. With the request that the case stays objective.‖

The Justice looks towards the Professor, but there is no

acknowledgement from his side, nor any sign of remorse.

―Shall we continue? Mr. N. Voy please take the stand on behalf of

creation.‖

**"** Your Honour, members of the Jury, carbon dating is used to

work out the age of organic material — in effect, any living

thing. The technique hinges on carbon-14 (14C) radioactive dating,

which is applicable only to matter, which was once living and

presumed to be in balance with the present day atmosphere, taking

in carbon dioxide from the air for photosynthesis.

51

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Measuring the amount of 14C in a sample from a dead animal,

a plant, a piece of wood or a fragment of bone provides

information that can be used to calculate when the animal or plant

died.

The amount of cosmic rays penetrating the Earth's atmosphere affects

the amount of 14C produced and therefore the dating system.

In other words:

**The older a fossil is, the less 14C there is to be detected.**

****

I hope this makes it more understandable. I myself did not understand

it and had to figure out what it all meant.

My client writes in the Book of Genesis . . . . "

_At this point the Professor throws up his arms and hisses,_

_"Oh no, not again!"_

The Justice speaks soberly,

―Professor, I just allowed your insult to the Jury to pass. However,

Professor, if you cannot and will not control your tongue we have to

ask you to leave the courtroom while Mr. N. Voy presents his material.

Then when he is done we will ask you to come back in and give your

presentation. This is my last and final warning, so that we can keep

order in this courtroom, while I preside over the case.‖

―Mr. N. Voy, please continue.‖

―Your Honour, I do have to present my client's writing in

order to explain creation.

Like I said my client wrote in Genesis:

_**'And I made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the**_

_**firmament from the waters which were above the firmament:**_

_**and it was so**. **'** 1 _

__

__

The waters above the firmament gave a **greenhouse** effect to the Earth

in those days before the flood.

52

1. Genesis 1:6,7

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

It also shielded the Earth and those living on it from the

damaging UV and 14C sun rays.

At that time the sun was not clearly visable as its direct sunlight was

filtered by the water/ice layer. Hence my client did not mention the

sun or moon before the flood, but wrote,

_**'the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light**_

_**to rule the night:' 1** _

The weight of the protective

translucent water/ice layer

**increased the oxygen** level

by more than half on the

Earth. This gave an amazing

Flora and Fauna, with **huge**

**sub-tropical vegetation and**

**colossal animals.**

One other interesting point

is that before the flood

**people and the animals were vegetarians** , as my client writes,

_**'I have given you every herb bearing seed, and every tree, in the which is**_

_**the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat -**_ nourishment _**-**_

_**To every beast, fowl and to everything that creeps upon the earth, wherein**_

_**there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.' 2**_

In those days the increased air

pressure meant **more oxygen** gets into

the blood stream, which means better

health and longer life.

**People, plants and animals could live**

**up to ten times longer than what is**

**possible today.**

This is also the reason that these

massive dinosaurs could survive.

53

1. Genesis 1:16

2. Genesis 1:29, 30:

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Compared to their enormous bodies the dinosaurs had

relatively small lungs.

However, when after the flood, the oxygen level dropped from 35% to

21%, the poor dinosaurs could not survive anymore with their

proportionally undersized lungs.

The Science Forum states,

**Oxygen Deprivation Caused Dinosaur Extinction**. **1**

Minute bubbles of ancient air trapped by successive flows of tree resin

during the life of the tree are preserved in the amber.

Analyses of the gases in these bubbles show that

the Earth's atmosphere contained nearly 35

percent oxygen compared to present levels of 21

percent. Results are based upon more than 300

analyses by USGS 2 scientists of Cretaceous,

Tertiary, and recent-age amber from 16 world

sites.

Your Honour, at present we have,

**Hyperbaric OXYGEN THERAPY for Wound Healing**

****

When injured we can put the patient or the athlete in a high oxygen

cabin. The wound and /or injury will recover much quicker.

We can also simply wrap a

plastic bag loosely around the

wound and fill it with a high

level of oxygen and the

process of healing has proven

much faster for the patient.

With the waters above the

firmament in place, the entire

atmosphere of the Earth

would have been shielded

from the intense levels of

cosmic radiation.

54

_****_

The 14C radio carbon atoms would have been missing or

barely present in the biosphere and in living organisms, such

as plants and animals from before the flood.

The less 14C is found in a fossil, the older it is estimated to be with

carbon-dating.

Hence, the fossils from **before the flood** will date much older than they

really are, as they have practically **no traces of 14C** , since the Earth was

shielded from the sun rays by the waters above the firmament.

In theory this 14C dating should work, but in practice this is not always

the case. As the Professor said, only one carbon 14 atom exists in nature

for every 1,000,000,000,000 (1 trillion) C12 atoms in living material, so it

is highly unlikely that carbon-dating can be accurate.

**THE RUBIDIUM-STRONTIUM TECHNIQUE**

This technique is for dating rocks and non-living matter, according to

the amount of Rubidium or Strontium element found in the matter.

The following shows that this technique is also not accurate.

'Geologist Dr. Steve Austin sampled basalt from the base of the Grand

Canyon strata and from the lava that spilled over the edge of the

canyon.

By evolutionary reckoning, the latter should be at least a billion years

younger than the basalt from the bottom.

'Standard Laboratories' analyzed the isotopes.

The rubidium-strontium isochron technique suggested that **the recent**

**lava flow was 270 Ma* older than the basalts beneath** the Grand

Canyon — **an impossibility**. ( ***** 1 Ma represents 1 million years)

In the study of the Grand Canyon rocks by Austin, different techniques

gave different results. Again, all sorts of reasons can be suggested for

the 'bad' dates, but this is again posterior reasoning.

Techniques that give results that can be dismissed, just because they

don't agree with what we already believe, cannot be considered

objective.

55

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The belief system, of molecules-to-man evolution over eons

of time is so strongly entrenched, that it is not questioned—it

is a 'fact'. So every observation must fit this pattern.

The researchers, who are supposedly 'objective scientists' in the eyes of

the public, select the observations to fit the basic belief system of

evolution.'1

Your Honour, we are taught that ancient man was less intelligent and

modern man is much more advanced intellectually, but this makes no

sense in the light of these archeological discoveries.

The evolutionist puts modern man at about 400,000 years old, with

technological developments only within the past 40,000 years,

however, we find man-made designs in layers of rock and coal that are

according to Carbon Dating and evolution millions of years old.

I read from _'The Hidden History of the Human Race',_

'Nordling wrote: 'I visited a friend's museum in southern Missouri.

Among his curios, he had the iron cup pictured on the enclosed

snapshot.'

Metal pot found in coal, which was carbon-dated

about 312 million years old.

56

1. https://books.google.co.uk/books?isbn=1465316558

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

At the private museum, the iron cup had been displayed

along with the following affidavit, made by Frank J.

Kenwood in Sulphur Springs, Arkansas, on Nov. 27, 1948:'

**'While I was working in the Municipal Electric Plant in**

**Thomas, Okla. in 1912, I came upon a solid chunk of coal**

**which was too large to use. I broke it with a sledge hammer.**

**This iron pot fell from the center, leaving the impression or**

**mould of the pot in the piece of coal. Jim Stall (an employee**

**of the company) witnessed the breaking of the coal, and saw**

**the pot fall out. I traced the source of the coal, and found**

**that it came from the Wilburton, Oklahoma, Mines.'**

**According to Robert O. Fay of the Oklahoma Geological**

**Survey, the Wilburton mine coal is [dated by evolutionists**

**at] about 312 million years old.'**

****

Your Honour, next I would like to refer to _'Jaredites: The Missing_

_Civilization X'_ , by Jim Hendleman. 1

'In 1944, as a ten-year-old boy, Newton Anderson dropped a large

lump of coal (bituminous [black mixture of hydrocarbons, typically

used for roofing and asphalt] coal mined near his home in Upshur

County, West Virginia) in his basement. It broke open and he found

that it contained a brass bell with an iron clapper inside.

The bell is about 8-10 inches tall and generally resembles a school bell..

On the outside, the bell's apparent brass handle resembles the overall

native architectural features seen in Thailand, with an indistinct type of

seated person... The Institute For Creation Research submitted the bell

to the lab at the University of Oklahoma for analysis.

The lab's nuclear activation

analysis revealed that **the bell**

**contains an unusual mix of metals,**

**different from any known modern alloy**

**production**..

COPPER, ZINC, TIN, ARSENIC, IODINE

& SELENIUM.'

Your Honour, we are taught that early

man did not have knowledge to produce

iron tools, however in the writings of my

client, he wrote in his first book,

_**'Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain,**_

**Bell made of metal mixes that we**

_**an instructor of every artificer**_

**don't know in our modern industry.**

_**in brass and iron:' 1**_

Tubalcain was teaching others iron working, and the evidence of that is

what we have just seen.

Evolutionists all over the internet do their best to disregard these

findings, many of them want these discoveries quickly buried.

They're often called **OOP-Art** , which is short for,

**'Out-Of-Place-Artifact'.**

****

‗OOPs!' a very fitting name, as it shows up another fault. ‗OOPs!' in the

missing-link theory of evolution, ‗OOPs!'

Oops, I think I went overtime as it is nearing 5:00 o'clock.‖

Presiding over the case is the Lord Justice, Dr. E. Dict.‖

The Lord Justice asks,

―Professor, would you present us with your material?‖

_**THE ICE TIMES**_

__

_"I would like to present the following article: 1_

__

_**The Pleistocene Epoch** is typically defined as the time period that began _

_about 1.8 million years ago and lasted until about 11,700 years ago._

__

_The most recent Ice Age occurred then, as glaciers covered huge parts of the_

_planet Earth._

__

_There have been at least five documented major ice ages during the 4.6_

_billion years since the Earth was formed - and most likely many more before_

_humans came on the scene about 2.3 million years ago._

__

_The Pleistocene Epoch is the first in which Homo Sapiens evolved, and by the_

_end of the epoch humans could be found in nearly every part of the planet._

__

_The Pleistocene Epoch was the first epoch in the Quaternary Period and the_

_sixth in the Cenozoic Era. It was followed by the **current stage, called the**_

_**Holocene Epoch.**_

_****_

_At present we are in an interglacial period—the Holocene—of the ice age_

_that began **2.6 million years ago** at the start of the Pleistocene epoch, _

_because the Greenland, Arctic, and Antarctic ice sheets still exist._

_I will just read what Rudy Wittshirk writes:_

__

_'To get a sense of the desperation behind the search for the wreck of Noah's_

_Ark, consider this:_

_It is wildly unlikely that Planet Earth was flooded, 4500 years ago, even up_

_to, for instance, the 13,000 foot level of this most recently claimed discovery:_

_"Evangelists claim Noah's Ark found - Mount Ararat explorers: 'We think it_

_is 99.9 percent that this is it."_

__

_The ark, as described in the Bible, was a wallowing tub. Some speculate it_

_had rudimentary sails and "drogue anchors" (stones used as sea anchors)_

_for stability. Others account for its survival by claiming there is no mention_

_of stormy seas in the biblical story._

__

_However, I would think the purported huge amounts of water welling up_

_from a crack in the Earth would have meant roiling, if not boiling seas._

__

62

1. Excerpts taken from "The Siberian Times" 13 March 2014 article by

Anna Liesowska

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_Indeed one discoverer of Noah's ark claims that his find was washed_

_up onto the mountain by a tsunami, not a flood. And somehow_

_everyone on board survived that tsunami - and the Ark still retained its_

_ship-shape after 4500 years._

_It does seem rather unlikely that a wooden (or reed-construction) vessel_

_could have survived in recognizable form after 4,500 years on the side of a_

_snow-covered mountain. Just look what happens to log cabins in Alaska_

_after a few hundred years---they become as one with the Earth._

_Nevertheless, the searches go on. The main purpose for most searchers is to_

_explicitly "prove the existence of God."_

__

_Creationists like John Morris also hope that finding the lost Ark would_

_disprove evolution and prove the Bible._

_Other searchers are just intrigued by the story._

_It is a field ripe for deception..._

__

_Thank you, Your Honour, this is all for now."_

―The court calls on Mr. N. Voy to take the witness stand and present

his material concerning creation.‖

**MORE ON MAMMOTHS**

****

―Your Honour, members of the Jury, as I mentioned earlier, I

always ask a lot of questions and still do today.

I quote here from Science News:

―The ice-age ice masses accumulate over tens of thousands of years

and recede within the space of a few thousand years.‖

Many mammoths were found, complete with sub-tropical vegetation

still in their mouths.

Maybe the mammoths were not very intelligent, but I cannot believe

that any mammoth ‗in his right mind' would happily be eating his

grass and subtropical vegetation, while ice was forming around him

and he or she was turning into a block of ice.

63

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

That somehow does not add up with me.

I read the rest of the article of The Siberian Times that the Professor

presented about the possibility of cloning this mammoth.

I honestly stand in awe of the technology that science has discovered,

to able to attempt such a feat.

Further on in the same article we read:

'Radik Khayrullin said, 'the blood we have obtained is 'agonised' -

which means that the mammoth died an unnatural death, it must have

been in agony for 16, 18 hours. This is also confirmed by the position of

the body, with its back leg stretched in an unnatural way.

'We think this was a female mammoth that fell into an ice hole and

couldn't escape.'

My client writes:

_**'In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month,**_

_**the seventeenth day of the month,**_

_**the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up,**_

_**and** **floodgates of heaven were opened.' 1**_

****

Your Honour, for the sake of brevity I was going to leave the day and

month out, however this shows how exact my client is. He does not say

between 1,000,000 to 1,800,000 years ago.

No, my client gives the exact year, month and day.

As I explained yesterday from my client's writings there were waters

above the firmament, besides the waters under the firmament and

there were the waters of the deep.

This water above the firmament was in the form of ice crystals

suspended in space outside of the Earth's atmosphere and held in place

by the Earth's gravity – just as the rings around the other planets are

held in place by the other planets' gravity.

This is not a strange phenomenon and is very possible, as Saturn's

rings are known to be composed mainly of ice.

64

1. Genesis 7:11

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

**HOW THE MAMMOTHS FROZE**

When this protective layer was removed and the ice started

falling, the different climate zones came into existence: the colder polar

zones and the warmer climates. __ My client told Noah after the flood,

_**'While the earth remains seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and**_

_**summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.' 1**_

__

The ice or hail that fell in the polar zones did not melt, but instantly

froze everything in its path, including the huge mammoths whose

climate changed from subtropical to an instant complete deep-freezer.

Just like we read earlier in The Siberian Times.

‗The mammoth died an unnatural death, it must have been in agony

for 16, 18 hours. . its back legs stretched in an unnatural way.'

Obviously the mammoth could not support the weight of the ice and

its back legs slipped away and it died an agonizing death.

On the other hand the ice that fell in the tropical and subtropical

climates melted on its way down and it fell as rain. That is why it is

recorded in my client's writing as rain.

_**'And the rain was upon the earth forty days,' 2**_

Did they decide, 'Hey guys, let's

cuddle up here and die together.'?

**photo of a mass fossil grave**

I highly doubt it.

Or is it more likely that the violent flood waters swept them off their

feet and they ended up in a big heap?

Here we have

a photo of a

mammoth calf

discovered in

May, 2007.

I quote,

'The

that

Your Honour, the ice coming down froze the calf instantly.

The fountains from the deep formed the mud and the calf

was instantly frozen and wrapped in mud.

If we can accept that my client meant what he said, then it becomes

straightforward.

To me this is circumstantial evidence that the flood really happened.

Thank you, this is all for now.‖

John Joseph Nouri, Nestorian Archdeacon, had visited the Ark, during

an expedition to the source of the Euphrates. ‗The

wood was peculiar, dark reddish in color, almost

iron colored in fact, and seemed very thick'. During

Chicago World Fair 1893, he tried to raise funds to

have the Ark disassembled, transported and

reconstructed at the Fair.

1890s

Arthur Chuchian, an American, claimed that his father Jacob Chuchian

saw the Ark numerous times during his childhood. ‗The Ark, which

has a reddish-brown color, rests on a type of cleft or ledge near a steep

drop off and is surrounded by the other three sides by walls of rock

and lies north-south direction.'

1902 – 1905

George Hagopian, an Armenian living in the USA, declared to have

visited the Ark twice during his childhood, once with his uncle, when

he was ten years old and another time on his own.

**HISTORIAN JOSEPHUS**

The first century Jewish historian, who also

worked for the Roman Empire, Flavius

Josephus 1 covers much of the history in

his book _' **Antiquities of the Jews'**_ and

mentions the following concerning Noah's

Ark:

The ark rested on the top of a certain

mountain in Armenia . .

However, the Armenians call this place,

αποβατηριον **'The Place of Descent'** ; for

**Josephus 37-100 A.D.**

the ark being saved in that place, its

remains are shown there by the inhabitants to this day.

76

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Now all the writers of barbarian histories make mention of this

flood, and of this ark; among whom is Berossus.

For when he is describing the circumstances of the flood, he goes on

thus:

'It is said there is still some part of this ship in Armenia, at the

mountain of the Cordyaeans; and that some people carry off pieces of

the bitumen, which they take away, and use chiefly as amulets for the

averting of mischiefs.'

Hieronymus the Egyptian also, who wrote the Phoenician Antiquities,

and Mnaseas, and a great many more, makes mention of the same.

Nay, Nicolaus of Damascus, in his ninety-sixth book, hath a particular

relation about them; where he speaks thus:

'There is a great mountain in Armenia, over Minyas, called Baris, upon

which it is reported that many who fled at the time of the Deluge were

saved; and that one who was carried in an ark came on shore upon the

top of it; and that the remains of the timber were a great while

preserved.' 1

(End of _Antiquity of the Jews_ reading)

Consider the word for 'boat' and 'large boat' in Chinese:

_' **Then Noah and his**_ (3) _**sons and his wife and his sons' wives** **with him**_

_**entered the ark** _(8 in total) _because of the water of the flood.' 2_

__

The Ark was a boat which carried eight persons, and the Chinese

character for 'large boat' is a boat with eight persons. 3

**SNAKES, 14C DATING, DINOSAURS**

"It is 1:30 and Professor it is your turn to take the stand."

__

_"Your Honour, it is not all as simple as the witness makes it out to be._

_Things are more complex than a story of a boat on the water carrying_

_a family and animals._

_Your Honour, to me it is beyond comprehension that people actually believe_

_this. The plant and animal world and the human development is far more_

_complicated than the childlike stories of Adam and Eve in a garden and_

_Noah and his family going with the animals in a boat. I think that as adults_

_we have outgrown this Sunday school nonsense._

__

_**SNAKES**_

_**** I would like to show you something that one of my esteemed colleagues Dr. _

_David Martill, Ph.D. **1** Martill says, 'The new snake hints at how these legless, _

_slithering serpents evolved from four-legged, striding lizards. Martill called_

_the creature Tetrapodophis: **four-legged snake.** _

_'This little animal is the_

_Archaeopteryx of the squamate_

_world,' he says. (Squamates are_

_the_

_snakes_

_and_

_lizards.)_

_Archaeopteryx is the feathered_

_fossil whose mish-mash of_

_features_

_hinted_

_at_

_the_

_evolutionary transition from_

_dinosaurs to birds._

_In the same way,' Martill says,_

_'the new snake hints at how_

_'It maintains many_

Tetrapodophis forelimb (Credit: David Martill)

_elongated body, scales, fa_ _nged teeth and a flexible jaw to swallow large_

_The main, glaring difference is Tetrapodophis' **four limbs**.' 1 _

_The newly discovered species Tetrapodophis amplectus, which lived during_

_the Early Cretaceous 146 to 100 million years ago._

_Dr. Houssaye says in a BBC interview:_

_'Two theories compete._

_One points to a land origin in which lizards started to burrow, and as they_

_adapted to their subterranean existence, their legs were reduced and lost -_

_first the fore-limbs and then the hind-limbs._

_The second theory considers the origin to be in water, from marine reptiles._

_This makes the few known bipedal snakes in the fossil record hugely_

_significant, because they could hold the clues that settle this particular_

_debate.' 2_

_Your Honour, Dr. Houssaye closes her interview with these words, 'This_

_study does not enable us to choose between the two hypotheses._

_Being a professor is not easy, but to instruct the young inquisitive minds of_

_to doing."_

―I see, Mr. N. Voy, that you would like to speak. The Professor is

finished, so please go ahead.‖

―Your Honour, I was happily surprised that the Professor

would quote Dr. David Martill, as I actually also have a part of

that particular interview. It shows how both our researches overlap.

This particular part shows the excitement of Dr. Martill,

‗And then, if my jaw hadn't already dropped enough, it dropped right

to the floor. The little creature had a pair of hind legs. I thought: bloody

hell! And I looked closer and the little label said: **Unknown fossil.**

Understatement! I looked even closer—and my jaw was already on the

floor by now—and I saw that it had tiny little front legs!'

He says,

‗Fossil-hunters have found several extinct snakes with stunted hind

legs, and modern boas and pythons still have **** a pair of little spurs **.** ****

**But no snake has ever been found with four legs. This is a once-in-a-**

**lifetime discovery.** '

Study puts new perspective on snake evolution.

January 5, 2015.

‗When combined with information from fossils, these findings indicate

that the direction of **SNAKE EVOLUTION IS THE OPPOSITE** of

what had been concluded from developmental genetics alone, Head

and Polly say.' **1**

I quote, 'Snakes . . . their evolutionary origins are obscure . . . no snake

has been described with four limbs, and the ecology of snakes is poorly

known.' 2

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Dr. Hongyu Yi, of the University of Edinburgh's School of

GeoSciences, said: ' **How snakes lost their legs has long been**

**a mystery to scientists**. .'

Before I refer to my client's writing, I would like to refer to the

Professor's presentation and the closing words of Dr. Houssaye in her

BBC interview,

‗This study does not enable us to choose between the two hypotheses.

In fact, **a true answer** might not be brought before 10 years.'

What if we don't have to wait 10 years for the true answer?

My client writes; I will read his words in first person,

_**'And the woman said, 'The snake enticed me.'**_

_**And I said unto the serpent, Because you have done this, you are cursed**_

_**above all cattle, and above every beast of the field;**_

_**upon your belly shall you go, dust shall you eat all the days of your life:' 1**_

__

This seems to indicate that before the flood, humans and animals could

communicate and converse, as otherwise the woman (Eve) would have

screamed and run away when the snake spoke to her.

I will not go into all the spiritual reasons why my client was upset with

the snake, but what if, what my client says is the truth, and this is **the**

**true answer** that Dr. Housaye is looking for?

__

_The Professor bursts out in a loud laugh, "This is total absolute_

_nonsense. Rubbish! I can't believe that we even listen to this! Adam_

_and Eve and the apple, where are your brains at?"_

―ORDER IN THE COURT!

Professor, please leave the courtroom. You have had ample of

warnings. Please excuse yourself and I will call you back in when it is

your turn to speak.‖

_"Your Honour, that we even listen to this is beyond me. This is so_

_ridiculous this borders on childlike insanity. Adam and Eve and the_

_apple and the snake."_

―Professor, please excuse yourself, or otherwise I will have to ask the

security to assist.‖

_The Professor gets up, red in the face and as he passes Mr. N. Voy he_

_scowls, "You are a God-damned idiot. Do you know that?"_

The Justice sighs, ―You may continue Mr. N. Voy.‖

―Your Honour, I know that these things might be hard to

believe, but I am not here to pick a fight, I am just here to

present the writings of my client and that is all there is to it.

It is not for me to prove him right. He is well capable of doing that

himself, however in this case I am only to present his writing.

I just felt sorry for the Professor that he called on my client's name

when he wished me ill.

83

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Funny how my client is in people's mind connected to the

negative. When bad things happen to us personally, or in the

world at large, my client often gets the blame for it, even by people that

say they don't believe he exists.

We truly are amazing creatures, Your Honour.‖

Concerning the four-legged snake I wanted to end with a quote again

from Dr. David Martill,

‗But no snake has ever been found with four legs. **This is a once-in-a-**

**lifetime discovery**.'

I don't think fossil hunters will find many more as there were probably

only a few snakes in the Garden of Eden.

Actually I am amazed that this fossil was discovered in the museum in

Solnhofen, Germany, by Dr. Martill. I am happy for this precious fossil

find and that the Professor brought it up in the court case, because for

me it is another confirmation of my client's writings.

**MORE ON CARBON-14 (14C) DATING**

I am however still concerned about the dates given by means of carbon

14 dating, and I repeat, prior to the flood the Earth was shielded by the

waters above the firmament from the sun's emission of carbon 14.

If very little carbon 14 is found in the fossils they are considered very

old.

Carbon 14 dating is measured according to today's environmental

conditions, which at present is radically different than the conditions

before the flood when it was practically totally carbon 14 free.

Hence these dates of millions and billions of years are incorrect.

Your Honour, members of the Jury, it goes like this:

If it has 100% 14C then it is 0 years old.

If it has 50% 14C then it is 5730 years old.

If it has 25% 14C then it is 11.460 years old.

If it has 12.5% 14C then it is 17.190 years old.

If it has 6.25% 14C then it is 22.920 years old.

If it has 3.125% 14C then it is 28.650 years old.

84

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

So every time the percentage (%) goes down by half, then you

add 5730 years.

14C comes to Earth in the sun rays. That is why dinosaur bones and

things that lived before the flood are practically 14C free, because of the

protective water/ice shield that protected the Earth from the harmful

sun rays before the flood.

Seeing that there is no 14C in these fossils, they are guesstimated to be

millions or billions of years old, while they are only approx. 4,500 to

6,000 years old according to my client.

I don't think that I can repeat this point enough, as this is a major

cornerstone of evolution, which holds no water.

**CO-HABITATION OF MAN AND DINOSAURS**

One last thing that I forgot to mention this morning about the

dinosaurs, which became extinct because of lack of oxygen.

Evolution teaches us that man evolved tens of millions of years after

the dinosaurs became extinct.

However since in 1908, George

Adams discovered 14 giant human

footprints beside 134 dinosaur

footprints in the limestone of

Paluxy Creek riverbed in Glen

Rose, Texas.

85

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

I had to laugh, as this is also

maligned as another hoax and that

these were 'carved' footprints. Who would

waste time to carve **14** **human footprints** ,

each two feet length, double the size of

present day footprints, along at least **134**

**dinosaur tracks** in a river bed?

Dr. Philip Kitcher, in his anti-creationist book _**Abusing Science**_ , claims

that **solid evidence that dinosaurs and man co-existed would 'shake**

**the foundations of evolutionary theory**.' (1998, p. 121)

Your Honour, this is a part of a cave pictograph in the Amazon

Rainforest, depicting a **Sauropod Dinosaur** with **nine hunters**

encircling the dinosaur. Obviously the dinosaur is alive, as one of the

hunters raises his spear getting ready to strike. **1**

Professor Strahler 2 writes on page 17 in _Science and Earth History: The_

_Evolution / Creation Controversy_ , 'it is conceivable that a scientist will

someday discover human bones among dinosaur bones in such a

relationship that it is judged highly likely that humans and dinosaurs

lived at the same time. **Such a finding would deal a crushing blow to**

**the widely favored hypothesis of a unique evolutionary sequence**. .'

―Your Honour, an interesting point is that after the flood the

oxygen level was 60% of what it was before, and the protective

water filter against the harmful cosmic rays was now gone. Thus my

client told Noah and his family that they should eat meat. This was for

extra protein and strength, as they were vegetarians till then.2

_**'Every moving thing that lives will be meat for you; even as the green herb' 3**_

**LANGUAGES**

My client also told Noah and his three sons,

_**'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.' 1**_

Now they pretty much all obeyed in multiplying, but not all obeyed to

scatter with their families throughout the Earth, which the Professor

explained was one large continent. Not all of Noah's children and

grandchildren wanted to pack up and go pioneering after the flood.

Many decided to stay together, just like we do nowadays, we crowd

together in cities, where money is quick and we can do as we like, as

we can disappear in the mass of humanity.

They decided under the leadership of Nimrod 4 to build a tremendous

high tower in the plains of Shinar in Iraq. This ministered to their

arrogance and pride and things got from bad to worse, so much so that

they imagined to build the top so high, that they could enter heaven.

Concerning the origin of the different languages, my client writes,

_**'They have all one language; and this they begin to do: . . let us go down,**_

_**and there confound their language, that they may not understand one**_

_**another's speech. So my client scattered them abroad from there upon the**_

_**face of all the earth. . . Therefore is the name of it called Babel.' 5**_

Your Honour, the linguists will tell us that all languages originated

from one language. The Professor shows that there are 62 major root

languages. I will not contest this, although from other supporting

writings I believe that there might have been 70 after my client

confused their language. 6

It seemed that for the tower he

opened up a huge sink-hole

into which a large part disappeared. 1

'Archaeologists hope to save the ruins of

the Biblical era **Tower of Babel** , located

in Iraq, and learn how it was built. . . .

All this is unexcavated. There is great potential at this site.' 2

**THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE**

****

Your Honour, my client confused their language and the population

split into families, tribes, and language groups to different parts of the

world. Shortly after that we have the continental divide.

My client mentions this continental drift. He does not say a lot about it

except that it occurred about a century after the flood.‖

The Professor can't help but laugh and was about to make a comment,

when the gentle, but strong hand of the security guard came to rest on

his shoulder.

The Justice, although noticing what happened, preferred not to

comment and was visibly relieved to be distracted by the security

person bringing in a big cup of take-away coffee, which the Justice had

to forego during the recess discussions.

Mr. N. Voy continues.

―Your Honour, my client writes in Genesis,

_'Shem. . begat Arphaxad **two years after the flood** : _(Gen 11:10) _****_

_And Arphaxad lived **five and thirty** years, and begat Salah: _(Gen 11:12) _****_

_And Salah lived **thirty** years, and begat Eber: _(Gen 11:14) _****_

_And Eber lived **four and thirty** years, and begat Peleg: _(Gen 11:16) _****_

_****_

_And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was **Peleg; for in his**_

_**days was the earth divided;** and his brother's name was Joktan.' ****_ (Gen 10:25)

(Joktan means that the ages of the people were diminishing)

This is a total of **101 years** from the Flood till the Continental Divide. __

__

Seeing that a baby boy was born to Eber at that time, he

decided to call him **Peleg, meaning division**.

One thing it faithfully says about all these people is that they begat

sons and daughters.

In those days it was an honour to have a big family. One plus one did

not just make one or two, but at least one or two dozen.

On the charts we see before and after the division. The different

regions had already people living on them, before these land-masses

moved away. Thus certain populations on separate continents have

similar features as they originate from the same ancestors.

North America had beautiful, intelligent, warm-

hearted people, who lived rather peaceably,

hunting, smoking their peace-pipes and making

colourful clothes, until their European family

rediscovered them.

Some of the first new immigrants wanted

friendship and spoke of my client, for which the

native population was thankful as they only knew

my client as the ‗Great White Spirit'. They

interacted and helped each other, but then the greedy ones arrived

with their guns and armies.

And the peaceful heaven on

Earth became a living hell, as

they were slaughtered by the

greedy ones, who stole their

lands, hunting grounds, riches

and destroyed their culture.

95

A sad tale really! However, everyone will have to give

account one day, not only to my client, but also to the people

that they raped and slaughtered.‖

The Professor is getting edgy, but with the security man standing next

to him, he decides to hold it in.

**HOW THE TECTONIC PLATES MOVE**

****

―Back to the great divide. I quote from Cosmos Feb. 16, 2015. **1**

‗Any geologist will tell you the Earth's crust is broken into tectonic

plates that 'float' around **like gigantic rafts**.

But just what these rafts have been floating on is a mystery until now.

A team of New Zealand scientists detonated tons of dynamite and

listened for echoes to reveal the underbelly of the Pacific plate.

**They found a 10 kilometer thick channel of lubricating jelly-like**

**rock, which they say allows the plate to slide above it** , according to a

report in _Nature_.

****

The jelly adds weight to the idea that gravity is the driving force

pulling the plates along. As one edge of the plate is being dragged

under, the low friction jelly layer means the rest of the plate just

slithers after it like a ski on snow.'

Your Honour, here we see the San Andreas

Fault line. The next photo is the Mid

Atlantic Ridge. These are sliding boundaries

between the plates.

As the continents

moved apart other

tectonic plates were

being dragged under,

while the ocean tidal

waves and tsunamis

rolled into the spaces that were sinking down

like the present day Atlantic Ocean.

96

1 **.** https://cosmosmagazine.com/geoscience

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The collision of the Indo-Australian tectonic plate with the

Eurasian plate formed the Himalayas. Due to the continued

plate movement, the region experiences many earthquakes, as we saw

recently in Nepal.

Seeing that South America moved westward, it seems that the Nazca

plate slipped under it pushing up the Andes mountains.

****

**In 1953 Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay climbed Mount**

**Everest** of 29,030 feet, or 8848 meters high.

When they got up to the altitude of 26,000 feet, or 7924 meters,

they began to find **sea shells.** That is **3030 feet, or 924 meters, from the**

**summit**.

How's that possible? Did mussels climb mountains?

Or else were the Himalayas

much lower, before the

tectonic plate movement,

during the time of the flood?

Seashells can be found on

any mountain.

Because of the violent waves,

the deposits of seashells

settled in the mud on the

**Sir Edmund Hillary & Tenzing Norgay on the **

mountains and the mountain

**summit of Mount Everest - 1953**

bases.

Mount Everest was during the flood only 3,030 feet high, as 29,030 feet

minus 26,000 is 3,030 feet. Therefore from 26,000 feet upwards to the

top is where the shells can be found.

Then during the great continental divide and the collision of the Indo-

Australian tectonic plate with the Eurasian plate, the Himalayas were

forced and pushed to a much higher altitude, and Mount Everest in

particular was pushed up by 26,000 feet.

Hence we do not find seashells below 26,000 feet.

97

29,030 feet = 8,848 meters

26,000 feet = 7,925 meters

3,030 feet = 924 meters

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

On this photo

it shows how

the tectonic plates

pushed, and still push

against each other, to

form mountain ranges.

****

****

**HOW HIGH WERE**

**THE MOUNTAINS AND THE FLOOD WATERS**?

The **Antarctic ice cap** is about 13,123 feet, or 4,000 meters **above sea**

**level**. (see red part photo) 1

This would be how high the

waters of the flood were, as

**the ice** that came down

stayed frozen solid, and **did**

**not recede** like the rest of

the worldwide flood waters.

NASA research 2 states that

the ice cap thickens 0.7 inch

yearly. That means at the

end of the flood 4500 years

ago it was 4500 X 0.7 = 3150 inches or 263 feet less. **So the height of the**

**flood waters was roughly 12,860 feet, or 3920 meters.**

My client writes,

__

_' **. . all the high mountains . . . were covered. The waters rose and covered**_

_**the mountains to a depth of more than fifteen cubits**.' 3 _

__

More than 15 cubits is at least 23 feet, or 7 meters.

With simple math that makes **the highest mountains** 12,860 - 23 =

**12,837 feet, or 3,913 meters high** before the continental drifts.

The seashells were deposited on the lower mountains during the flood.

Then during the continental divide these were pushed up, or whole

sea-beds with shells could have been elevated to become mountains.

It clearly shows that the highest mountain ranges were

formed with the shifting of the tectonic plates, during the

great continental divide a good hundred years after the flood.

The shifting of tectonic plates and **the moving of the continents was a**

**tremendous upheaval,** with whole cities and regions like Atlantis and

pyramids **sliding underwater.** We find them everywhere: off the coasts

of India, Greece, Japan, Portugal, Italy, Cuba, South America, etc.

Today we still discover new underwater structures that sank down

into the oceans.

**Pyramid near the coast of Portugal**

**City off the coast of Italy**

This enormous pyramid is near

**Yonaguni,** **Japan.** The size of the

blocks shows that it was most likely

pre-diluvium, or from before the

flood, as in those days there were

'giants in the land' that were able to

move these enormous stone blocks.

Professor Masaki Kimura, geologist

at Ryukyu University in Okinawa, ―This could only have been done by

a people with a high degree of technology,. . . to have created such a

huge structure.‖

The people before the flood and right after the flood lived for centuries

and accumilated during their lifetime vast knowledge, and were able

to develop technologies and buildings that still baffle us, like the Great

Pyramid of Giza, built with a precision that our current technology

cannot yet replicate. 2

Your Honour, I can guarantee

the court that it was not the

Homo

Sapiens

running

around with clubs, living in

caves that built these amazing

structures.

My client is often accused, that if he is so concerned for this world, then

why does he not do anything about the mess?

He has been constantly trying to stop the arrogance and murders and

violence, with floods, confusing the languages and by scattering the

people throughout the world, and sometimes allowing difficult things

in our life in order to see if we will want to change for the better.

He has been trying to pick good people that he could work with like

Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses to whom he gave ten simple laws, that

we as lawless should go by.

Then there were the prophets and finally my client sent his son, Jesus,

to show us how to live in love.

He has literally been trying to do his utmost to keep us somewhat

going in the right direction. However instead of being thankful we get

arrogant and show him the finger.‖

_The Professor raises his hand,_

_"Your Honour, can the witness keep to circumstantial evidence?_ ‖ __

―Objection sustained!‖

_"In order to go forward in the research concerning our origins we_

to 13.8 billion years?

However, I don't feel good about this tit-for-tat business, because we

need to be focusing on our origins and not on each other. Enough said.

―Your Honour, the Israelites leaving Egypt, called 'the

Exodus' is by many seen as a fraud.

However when Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt, my client

showed them as they went. He directed them step by step, but he could

**only lead them after** they had pulled up stake, and after they had

decided to leave, and thumb their nose at the powers that tried to

control them.

Only then my client could lead them to the Red Sea. It would have

been impossible to cross that Red Sea, which is about 500 to 2500

meters deep, with steep inclines.

But my client led them

to the only place in the

The Mis si

ng Day - 23:20 + 40 mins.

As told by Mr. Harold Hill

―At NASA, Green Belt, Maryland, they

were checking the position of the sun,

moon, and planets out in space, where

they would be 100 years and 1,000 years

from now. . . **We have to lay out the orbits**

**in terms of the life of the satellite, and**

**where the planets will be** , so the whole

thing will not bog down.

They ran the computer measurements back and forth over the

centuries and it came to a halt. The computer stopped and put up a red

signal, which meant that there was something wrong either with the

information fed into it or with the results as compared to the

standards.

**They found there is a day missing in space over the measurements in**

**elapsed time**.

They searched and searched for a solution. But after many days there

was no answer to be found.

Finally, someone on the team said, ―You know, one time I was in

Sunday School and they talked about the sun standing still.‖ While the

others didn't believe him, they didn't have an answer either, so they

said, ―Show us.‖

They found where Joshua asked the Lord to make the sun stand still!

_**'The sun stood still and the moon stayed, and hasted not to go down**_

_**about a whole day!' 1**_

They checked the computers going back into the time.

**The elapsed time that was missing back in Joshua's day was 23 hours**

**and 20 minutes--not a full 24 hour day.**

They read it again and it said ' **about** a day.'

If you cannot account for 40 minutes, you'll still be in trouble 1,000

years from now. The 40 minutes had to be found, because it can be

multiplied many times over in orbits.

That same employee remembered that somewhere it was

written in the Bible that the sun went backwards.

The scientists told him he was out of his mind.

However they decided to check it out and they read the following in

2nd Kings. King Hezekiah, on his deathbed, was visited by the prophet

Isaiah who told him that he was not going to die. Hezekiah asked for a

sign as proof. Isaiah said,

_**'Do you want the sun to go ahead 10 degrees?'**_

****

****

Hezekiah said, ****

****

_**'It is nothing for the sun to go ahead 10 degrees, but let the shadow return**_

_**backward 10 degrees.'**_ _**1**_

Isaiah spoke to my client and he brought the shadow ten degrees

backward! **Ten degrees is exactly 40 minutes!**

Twenty-three hours and 20 minutes in Joshua, plus 40 minutes in 2nd

Kings make **the missing day in the universe! _"_**

Mr. Harold Hill used the missing day in his

speeches throughout the sixties.

James S. Lacy, from the Office of Public

Relations for NASA, wrote in a letter that the

only trace they could find of a Harold Hill

having any connection with NASA was a

person who was involved in contracting for the

operations and maintenance of some diesel

engine operations.

**Mr. Harold Hill**

Mr. Hill has been called a hoax and maligned as a fraud on the internet

and

that his story is a lie.

**Dr. Wernher von Braun** was the director of NASA. It was under his

leadership that the moon-landing of the Apollo 11 took place in 1969.

This was during the time that Harold Hill was using the missing day

story in his speeches.

**James Irwin** wrote, 'It was only after my return to Earth that I realized

the importance of a spiritual dimension to life.'

**Dr. von Braun** ended with: 'When astronaut Frank Borman returned

from his Apollo 8 flight, 1968, he was told, a Soviet cosmonaut, recently

returned from a space flight, had commented that he had seen neither

God nor angels on his flight. Had Borman seen God? The reporters

inquired. Frank Borman replied, ―No, I did not see Him either, but I

saw his evidence.'

 **Aztec priests** related to the Spanish scholar Bernadino de Sahagun

(1499-1590) that the sun had acted in a most unusual way in the

 The Greek historian Herodotus wrote that **Egyptian priests** had

reported a most unusual solar event that occurred in the distant past.

―The sun, however, had within this period of time, on four several

occasions, moved from his wonted course, twice rising where he now

sets and twice setting where he now rises.‖ (Herodotus, _'The History of_

_Herodotus'_ trans. Chpt. 2)

 The **Quiché Mayans** of Guatemala wrote about the people's reaction

to a long night: ―They did not sleep; they remained standing and great

was the anxiety of their hearts and their stomachs for the coming of

the dawn and the day. (‗ _Popol Vuh'_ Part III, pp. 172-190.)

**THE BIBLE CODE**

****

I will read the following excerps from

_**'The Bible Code'**_ by Michael Drosnin.1

Drosnin writes, in his no.1 bestseller book,

‗as an investigative reporter, I've spent five

years checking out the facts. Nothing is

taken on faith. . . Only one test - the truth.'

The code was discovered by the Israeli

mathematician **Dr. Rips**. . . . confirmed by

famous mathematicians at Harvard, Yale

and Hebrew University.

It has passed three levels of secular peer review at the leading

US math journal and a senior code breaker at the US dept of

Defense.

**Sir Isaac Newton** was certain that there

was a hidden code in the Bible that would

reveal the future. . he considered it more

important than his ‗Theory of the

Universe'. . .

The hidden text of the Bible was encoded

**Sir Isaac Newton**

with a kind of time-lock. It could not be

**1642-1726**

opened until the computer had been

invented. The code is that hidden information is woven into the text of

Genesis in the form of equidistant letter sequences. The effect is

significant at the level of 99.998%

**Harold Gans** 1 was certain he could prove that the code did not exist. . .

‗It sent a chill up my spine' recalled Gans . .

'At first I was 100% skeptical' said the Pentagon code breaker. ‗I set out

to disprove the code, and ended up proving it.'

The Bible is constructed as a giant crossword puzzle. . Skip X spaces,

and another X spaces, and another X spaces, and the hidden message is

spelled out. There is a Bible beneath the Bible.

The Bible is not only a book – it is also a computer program.

It was first chiseled in stone and handwritten on a parchment scroll,

finally printed as a book, waiting for us to catch up with it by inventing

a computer. . .

In experiment after experiment the crossword puzzles were found only

in the Bible.

Not in _'War and Peace'_ , not in any other book, and not in ten million

computer generated test cases.

**Yitzhak Rabin** 1 appeared with a skip sequence of 4772. Crossing the

name. . we found the words ‗assassin will assassinate', the year ‗5756'.

The year 5756 is 1995-96, ‗Tel Aviv'.

Later we discovered the name of his

assassin ‗Amir'.

Michael Drosnin warned Mr. Rabin.

He writes, We had not been able to save

Rabin's life. But suddenly, brutally I had

absolute proof that the Bible code was real.

We found ‗Economic collapse' ‗ **Depression** '

‗stocks' ‗5690', (which is 1929) encoded in the

same place.

Yitzhak Rabin 1922-1995

**"Hitler"** and ‗Nazi' were encoded together with ‗slaughter' ‗in

Germany'. . etc., etc., etc.

The Yale professor mathematician **Piatetski-Shapiro** was startled,

‗There is no way in the known laws of mathematics to explain seeing

the future . . . What we are talking about here is **some intelligence that**

**stands outside**.'

Rips, ‗the Bible code contains more information than we could even

count, let alone find, in several lifetimes.'

**OUR ORIGINS ACCORDING TO EVOLUTION**

―Professor, please take the witness stand and present your evidence.‖

_"Your Honour, so far we have not spent much time on the actual Big_

_Bang process and_

_how this explosion put_

_the different processes_

_into action._

__

_The explosion of a grain_

_of compressed matter so_

_miniscule was the start_

_of_

_the_

_different_

_evolutionary processes._

_The_

_force_

_of_

_the_

_explosion orbited not_

_only our solar system_

_into space but also the_

_universe_

_and_

_the_

_galaxies._

_For three years, a team_

_of astronomers led by Harvard-Smithsonian researcher John Kovac braved_

_the elements to point a brawny telescope known as Bicep2 (an acronym for_

_the less euphonious Background Imaging of Cosmic Extragalactic_

_Polarization) at a patch of the southern sky._

__

_In March, the team released its results. Should the conclusions stand, they_

_will open a spectacular new window on the earliest moments of the_

_universe, and will deservedly rank among the most important cosmological_

_findings of the past century._

_School boards debate whether the theory of evolution should be_

_taught alongside other ideas, such as intelligent design _ _or creationism._

_Mainstream scientists see no controversy._

_"A lot of people have deep religious beliefs and also accept evolution,"_

_Pobiner said, adding, "there can be real reconciliation."_

_"If someone could really demonstrate a better explanation than evolution_

_and natural selection, [that person] would be the new Darwin," Richmond_

_said._

__

_Evolution is well supported by many examples of changes in various species_

_leading to the diversity of life seen today._

_The last shore-dwelling ancestor of modern whales was Sinonyx, top right, a_

_hyena-like animal._

_Over 60 million years, several transitional forms evolved: from top to_

_bottom, Indohyus, Ambulocetus, Rodhocetus, Basilosaurus, Dorudon, and_

_finally, the modern humpback whale._

__

_Modern understanding:_

__

_Darwin didn't know anything about genetics, Pobiner said._

_"He observed the pattern of evolution, but he didn't really know about the_

_mechanism."_

_That came later, with the discovery of how genes encode different biological_

_or behavioral traits, and how genes are passed down from parents to_

_offspring._

_The incorporation of genetics and Darwin's theory is known as "modern_

_evolutionary synthesis."_

_The physical and behavioral changes that make natural selection possible_

_happen at the level of DNA and genes._

_Such changes are called mutations. **"Mutations are basically the raw**_

_**material on which evolution acts,"** Pobiner said. _

_As I mentioned earlier, mutations can be caused by random errors in DNA_

_replication or repair, or by chemical or radiation damage._

__

_Most times, mutations are either harmful or neutral, but in **rare instances,**_

_**a mutation might prove beneficial** to the organism. _

__

_If so, it will become more prevalent in the next generation and spread_

_throughout the population._

_**In this way, natural selection guides the evolutionary process,**_

_**preserving and adding up the beneficial mutations and rejecting the**_

_**bad ones.**_

_**** "Mutations are random, but selection for them is not random," Pobiner said. _

_But natural selection isn't the only mechanism by which organisms evolve,_

_she said._

_For example, genes can be transferred from one population to another when_

_organisms migrate or immigrate, a process known as gene flow. And the_

_frequency of certain genes can also change at random, which is called_

_**genetic drift.**_

__

_Even though scientists could predict what early whales should look like, they_

_lacked the fossil evidence to back up their claim._

__

114

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

_Creationists took this absence as proof that evolution didn't occur._

_They mocked the idea that there could have ever been such a thing as_

_a walking whale._

_But since the early 1990s, that's exactly what scientists have been finding._

_The critical piece of evidence came in 1994, when paleontologists found the_

_fossilized remains of **Ambulocetus natans** , an animal whose name literally _

_means 'swimming-walking whale'._

_Its forelimbs had fingers and small hooves but its hind feet were enormous_

_given its size. It was clearly adapted for swimming, but it was also capable_

_of moving clumsily on land, much like a seal._

_When it swam, the ancient creature moved like an otter, pushing back with_

_its hind feet and undulating its spine and tail._

_Modern whales propel themselves through the water with powerful beats of_

_their horizontal tail flukes, but Ambulocetus still had a whip-like tail and_

_had to use its legs to provide most of the propulsive force needed to move_

_through water._

_In recent years, more and more of these transitional species, or "missing_

_links," have been discovered, lending further support to Darwin's theory,_

_Richmond said._

_**THE EXPANDING UNIVERSE**_

__

_It was the work of a Belgian priest, Georges Lemaître, who also held a_

_doctorate in physics, that advanced the story we're following._

_In 1927, Lemaître applied Einstein's equations of general relativity not to_

_objects within the_

_universe, like stars_

_and black holes, but_

_to the entire universe_

_itself._

_The result knocked_

_Lemaître back on his_

_heels._

_The_

_math_

_showed_

_that_

_the_

_universe could not be static._

115

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_**The fabric of space was either stretching or contracting, which**_

_**meant that the universe was either growing in size or shrinking.**_

_When Lemaître alerted Einstein to what he'd found, Einstein scoffed. He_

_thought Lemaître was pushing the math too far._

__

_So certain was Einstein that the universe, as a whole, was eternal and_

_unchanging, that he not only dismissed mathematical analyses that attested_

_to the contrary, he inserted a modest amendment into his equations to_

_ensure that the math would accommodate his prejudice._

_And prejudice it was._

__

_In 1929, the astronomical observations of Edwin Hubble, using the powerful_

_telescope at Mount Wilson Observatory, revealed that distant galaxies are_

_all rushing away._

_**The universe is expanding**. Einstein gave himself a euphemistic slap in the _

_forehead, a reprimand for not trusting results coming out of his own_

_equations, and brought his thinking—and his equations—into line with the_

_data._

_As Lemaître had pointed out, if space is now expanding, then by winding the_

_cosmic film in reverse we conclude that the observable universe was ever_

_smaller, denser and hotter ever further back in time._

__

_The seemingly unavoidable conclusion is that the universe we see emerged_

_from a phenomenally tiny speck that erupted, sending space swelling_

_outward—what we now call the Big Bang._

__

_But if true, what sent space swelling? And how could such an outlandish_

_proposal be tested?_

_****_

_**THE INFLATIONARY THEORY**_

__

_If the universe emerged from a sweltering hot and intensely dense primeval_

_atom, as Lemaître called it, then as space swelled the universe should have_

_cooled off. Calculations undertaken at George Washington University in the_

_1940s, and later at Princeton in the 1960s, showed that the Big Bang's_

_residual heat would manifest as a bath of photons (particles of light)_

_uniformly filling space._

116

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_The temperature of the photons would now have dropped to a mere_

_2.7 degrees above absolute zero, placing their wavelength in the_

_microwave part of the spectrum—explaining why this possible relic of the_

_**Big Bang is called the cosmic microwave background radiation.**_

__

_In 1964, two Bell Labs scientists, Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, were at_

_wits' end, frustrated by a large ground-based antenna designed for satellite_

_communications._

__

_Regardless of where they pointed the antenna, they encountered the_

_audiophile's nightmare: an incessant background hiss. For months they_

_sought but failed to find the source. Then, Penzias and Wilson caught wind_

_of the cosmological calculations being done at Princeton suggesting there_

_should be a low-level radiation filling space._

__

_The incessant hiss, the researchers realized, was arising from the Big Bang's_

_photons tickling the antenna's receiver. The discovery earned Penzias and_

_Wilson the 1978 Nobel Prize._

_The prominence of the Big Bang theory skyrocketed, impelling scientists to_

_pry the theory apart, seeking unexpected implications and possible_

_weaknesses._

__

_A number of important issues were brought to light, but the most essential_

_was also the most basic._

_The Big Bang is often described as the modern scientific theory of creation,_

_the mathematical answer to Genesis. But this notion obscures an essential_

_fallacy:_

__

_**The Big Bang theory does not tell us how the universe began. It tells us**_

_**how the universe evolved,** beginning a tiny fraction of a second after it all _

_started. As the rewound cosmic film approaches the first frame, the_

_mathematics breaks down, closing the lens just as the creation event is_

_about to fill the screen._

__

_And so, when it comes to explaining the bang itself—the primordial push_

_that must have set the universe headlong on its expansionary course —_

_**the Big Bang theory is silent.**_

__

117

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_It would fall to a young postdoctoral fellow in the physics department_

_of Stanford University, Alan Guth, to take the vital step toward filling_

_that gap. Guth and his collaborator Henry Tye of Cornell University were_

_trying to understand how certain hypothetical particles called monopoles_

_might be produced in the universe's earliest moments._

__

_But calculating deep into the night of December 6, 1979, Guth took the work_

_in a different direction._

_He realized that not only did the equations show that general relativity_

_plugged an essential gap in Newtonian gravity—providing gravity's_

_mechanism—they also revealed that gravity could behave in unexpected_

_ways._

_According to Newton (and everyday experience) gravity is an attractive_

_force that pulls one object toward another. The equations were showing_

_that in Einstein's formulation, **gravity could also be repulsive.**_

_**** _

_**THE FIRST LIFE ON EARTH**_

__

_The Earth was able to support life only after the planet had cooled enough_

_for a rocky crust to solidify._

__

_Once that happened, water vapor from volcanoes condensed in the_

_atmosphere, fell as rain, and collected on the Earth's surface._

_Besides water vapor, volcanoes also produced gases rich in the basic_

_ingredients of life: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Toxic gases such_

_as ammonia and methane were common._

__

_At this point, the Earth's early atmosphere consisted entirely of these_

_volcanic gases, and there was no free oxygen._

__

_In the **primordial "soup"** of the early seas, organic molecules concentrated, _

_formed more complex molecules, and became simple cells._

__

_The transition from complex organic molecules to living cells could have_

_occurred in several environments._

__

_Small, warm ponds are one possibility, but recent work has suggested that_

_deep-sea **hydrothermal vents**. _

118

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_**Hydrothermal vents** such as those found along mid-ocean spreading _

_centres today, may have been the cradle of the Earth's life._

_These environments contain the chemicals and the source of energy needed_

_to synthesize more complex organic structures._

__

_Although scientists **have not succeeded in creating life** from organic _

_molecules in the laboratory, they have reproduced **many of the**_

_**intermediate** steps. _

__

_So what were the first living things and when did they appear? Studies of_

_genetic material indicate that a living group of single-celled organisms_

_called **Archaea** may share many features with early life on Earth. _

_Many Archaea now live in hot springs, deep-sea vents, saline water, and_

_other harsh environments._

_If the first organisms resembled modern Archaea, they also may have lived_

_in such places, but direct evidence for early life is controversial because it is_

_difficult to distinguish between complex inorganic structures and simple_

_biological ones in the geologic record._

__

_The oldest evidence for life may be 3.5-billion-_

_year-old sedimentary structures from Australia_

_that resemble stromatolites ._

_**Stromatolites** are created today by living mats of _

_microorganisms (mostly cyanobacteria, or blue-_

_green algae)._

_These primitive organisms trap thin layers of_

_sediment with their sticky filaments and grow_

_upward to get light for **photosynthesis**. _

__

_Stromatolites_

_Modern-day examples of stromatolites can be_ _found in waters off Australia, the Bahamas, and Belize._

_In the Archean structures, layers similar to those seen in living stromatolites_

_are evident, and secondary structures interpreted as simple filamentous_

_microfossils have been recovered from the layers._

_**The biotic origin of the structures has, however, been questioned. Both**_

_**the supposed Archean stromatolites and the microfossils may have**_

_**been produced by inorganic processes.**_

119

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_Regardless, uncontested microfossils and chemical traces of life were_

_present at least by 2.7 billion years ago. Stromatolites that were_

_produced by microorganisms are abundant later in the Archean and_

_throughout the **Proterozoic**. _ __

_These sedimentary structures, formed by organic processes, provide_

_important evidence of early life._

_At present, we can say with certainty that life had evolved by **2.7 billion**_

_**years ago, and possibly as early as 3.5 billion** years ago. _

## Introduction to Biological Processes

_****_

_Evolution is a multifaceted process and is, perhaps, the most important_

_process in the history of life._

_Extinction also plays an important role in shaping the history of life,_

_eliminating even dominant species and reshaping the nature of the_

_biological world._

__

_Both evolution and extinction occur in the context of ecology—the study of_

_the relationships between organisms and the environment._

__

_The physical and biological processes that take place on the Earth are_

_interrelated. The physical changes that shape the planet also affect its living_

_organisms. This link has been documented throughout Earth history, and we_

_see evidence of it even today._

__

_For example, **animals and plants display obvious adaptations to**_

_**particular climates & environments**, as in the cacti of the deserts of _

_western North America or the streamlined bodies of fish, whales, and_

_dolphins._

_Less well appreciated is the fact that living organisms can alter the physical_

_Earth as well._

_One such example is the **'oxygen crisis'** that occurred some two billion _

_years ago, when newly evolved photosynthetic organisms produced oxygen_

_in sufficient quantities to permanently change Earth's atmosphere._

_Clearly, **it is not possible to understand the histories of life** and of the _

_Earth as separate stories._

120

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_Therefore, although this section focuses on the biological processes_

_associated with living organisms, many of these processes have explicit_

_connections to geological processes as well._

__

_Let's begin with an introduction to the basic qualities of life itself, including_

_its origin. The basic structures of living organisms form the building blocks_

_for all subsequent biological processes._

_Once life appeared on the early Earth, the challenges presented by the_

_physical environment immediately began driving the process of evolution,_

_which continues unceasingly today._

__

_**EVOLUTION** _

_Evolution is the biological process that creates new **adaptations** and _

_(ultimately) species by favoring individuals with genetic traits that give_

_these individuals and their offspring higher reproductive success._

__

_The "fittest" individuals are most able to meet the challenges of a constantly_

_changing physical and biological world, surviving to pass their genes to new_

_generations._

__

_When **mutations** occur in these genes, this can lead to the evolution of a _

_new species._

__

_Evolution is thus the process of change through time in the chain of life--_

_what Charles Darwin called **'descent with modification.'** _

_Today we understand that **fossils are one of the central lines of evidence**_

_**for evolution**. Prior to the development Darwin's theory, however, the many _

_lines of evidence that support it were not clearly understood or their_

_significance appreciated._

_In the middle of the nineteenth century, Charles Darwin developed the_

_theory of 'evolution by natural selection.'_

__

_On his visit to the **Galapagos Islands** , Charles Darwin discovered several _

_species of finches that varied from island to island, which helped him to_

_develop his theory of natural selection. The birds vary in size from 10 to_

_20 cm and weigh between 8 and 38 grams. The smallest are the **warbler-**_

_**finches** and the largest is the **vegetarian finch**. _

121

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_The most important_

_differences_

_between_

_species are in the size and_

_shape of their beaks, and the_

_beaks are highly **adapted** to _

_different food sources._

__

_This theory accounted for_

_the vast diversity of life on_

_Earth and provided a_

_mechanism to explain how_

_new species come into being._

__

_Its most profound implication was that **all life had descended from a**_

_**single common ancestor**. Through time, species changed gradually, _

_ultimately giving rise to new forms. Darwin believed that competition for_

_limited resources (natural selection) was the main driving force of this_

_change within a lineage of organisms. Driven by competition new species_

_appeared and others went extinct._

_Darwin's original theory has been greatly modified over time. He did not, for_

_example, have any knowledge of genetics as we currently understand it._

_Growth in our understanding of the cell and of the genetic machinery that_

_controls cells and organisms has in turn greatly refined our understanding_

_of how evolution works._

_Currently **this theory is the best explanation** for the relationships we _

_observe between all living and fossil life forms._

_**Scientists are still uncovering the specifics of how, when, and why**_

_**evolution produced the life we see on Earth today.**_

_**These discussions concern the mechanisms and timing of evolution,**_

_**not whether descent with modification has occurred.**_

__

_Most importantly, the process of descent with modification produces the_

_pattern that scientists call the ' **Tree of Life.'** _

_This "tree" describes the relationships of organisms to one another. The_

_branching pattern of relationships that results from the evolutionary_

_process is called the phylogeny of life._

122

__

_the process of descent with modification produces the pattern_

_that scientists call the 'Tree of Life.'_

123

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_This 'tree' describes the relationships of organisms to one another._

_The branching pattern of relationships that results from the_

_evolutionary process is called the phylogeny of life._

__

_Scientists have used these evolutionary relationships to develop a system of_

_classification. Within this system, organisms have been identified, named,_

_and classified in order to permit scientists to communicate easily about_

_them._

__

_The species is the 'working unit' of evolution. **A species is a collection of**_

_**populations, all genetically related.**_

_These populations are composed of individual organisms that are capable of_

_breeding with each other to produce fertile offspring, thus passing genetic_

_information from one generation to the next._

__

_Through descent with modification (mutation and natural selection) a_

_population will accumulate genetic changes until it is so different from_

_other populations of the parent species that interbreeding is no longer_

_possible. In this way, a new species has formed._

__

_**Speciation is the** **term** biologists and paleontologists use to describe such _

_an event._

_**How does speciation occur**? Evolution has two basic components: the _

_origin of new variation, which occurs primarily through mutation of genetic_

_material (DNA), and the sorting of new mutations by natural selection._

_**Mutation is largely a "random"** process, meaning that the mutations do _

_not occur in response to "needs" on the part of the individuals in which they_

_occur._

__

_**Most mutations, in fact, are either harmful or neutral.**_

__

_**Only rarely is a mutation beneficial** to the offspring of the organism in _

_which the mutation occurred._

_In any population, mutations occur that make some individuals different_

_from others._

_**Natural selection** is the means by which **helpful and harmful mutations**_

_**are sorted out.** _

124

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_Because organisms must compete for resources, natural selection_

_favors those individuals with beneficial mutations, permitting them to_

_reproduce more than other organisms._

__

_Over time, the genes that confer these advantages become more common in_

_the population._

_Natural selection works through such mechanisms as competition for_

_resources, different abilities to tolerate physical conditions, and so forth,_

_resulting in differential reproductive success. But competition is not always_

_a physical battle._

__

_For example, an individual with a longer neck might be able to reach more_

_food._

_In a year when resources are limited, this adaptation would allow the_

_production of more offspring than other individuals in the population._

_Over time, the average length neck in the population would shift toward_

_longer necks._

_If these selective pressures persisted for some time, the population would_

_become significantly different from other populations in the species._

_Then, if this population became isolated from the other populations of the_

_species, either through later physical isolation or through associated_

_mutations that limited cross-breeding with other individuals, an entirely_

_new species would appear._

__

_**The rate of evolution has been debated for decades**. _

__

_**One of Darwin's key points was that evolution worked very slowly** , over _

_millions of years of geological time, through the gradual, incremental_

_acquisition of small differences._

__

_While not denying that much of evolution is indeed slow and gradual, it was_

_suggested that slow change was not the underlying process that gave rise to_

_most new species._

__

_**PUNCTUATED EQUILIBRIUM**_

__

_Punctuated equilibrium **** helped to explain why many transitional forms _

_apparently were missing from the fossil record._

125

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_According to the hypothesis of **punctuated equilibrium** , transitional _

_forms existed for **brief periods of time** , and so were unlikely to _

_become fossils._

__

_This view has not been universally accepted, by paleontologists or biologists_

_working with modern species. Some, such as paleontologist Philip Gingerich,_

_have argued that many mammal species indeed evolved gradually, without_

_any apparent episodes of rapid change._

__

_Others have argued that small mutations could not produce the large_

_changes in organismal structure needed to drive the process of punctuated_

_equilibrium._

__

_However, **the discovery of Hox genes** \--which code for entire structures, _

_rather than single components--identified a potential mechanism for rapid_

_evolutionary change._

__

_This relationship between a structure (such as a long neck) and a function_

_(such as feeding) is important to understanding its evolutionary origin. If, in_

_the course of its evolution, a structure was very closely tied to a specific_

_function, it is called an **adaptation**. _

_Many structures are not closely linked to particular adaptations, however._

_They may have evolved for other purposes, and were later co-opted (or_

_'exapted') for a new function. Or they may simply be the by-products of_

_evolutionary selection on another structure to which they were connected._

__

_Structures in different species that were inherited from a common ancestor_

_are described as **homologous**. _

_**Homologous structures** may look similar (such as the legs of elephants _

_and rhinos), or different (such as the legs of elephants and whales), but they_

_always share this quality of common ancestry. In contrast, analogous_

_structures are always superficially similar (such as the fins of fish, whales,_

_and ichthyosaurs) but evolved independently._

__

_The common ancestor of these animals did not have fins, and so they were_

_not inherited and must have evolved independently._

__

126

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_**Analogous structures** are the product of convergence. Convergence _

_occurs when similar structures evolve in species that are not closely_

_related._

__

_For example, wings have evolved a number of times in the course of the_

_history of life. In each instance of independent appearance, the structure is_

_unique. Insects, reptiles, birds, and mammals have all evolved wings, but_

_they are constructed of different materials. This convergence has occurred_

_because genetic mutations combined with natural selection created_

_structures that permitted flight in different organisms. The wings of these_

_different forms are really only similar in superficial ways, but they have_

_similar functions._

__

_In order to fly, an organism must obey the laws of aerodynamics. (Even_

_though the organisms themselves don't understand them or know that they_

_exist, such physical laws control the flight of an airplane as surely as they_

_control that of a dragonfly.) Physical factors thus constrain the shape of a_

_successful wing._

_**CO-EVOLUTION**_

_****_

_Co-evolution occurs when two **unrelated species evolve in tandem**. In _

_effect, the species become linked through a period of sustained ecological_

_interaction such as the need for food and the need for pollination that link_

_certain insects and flowers. An evolutionary change in one of the two species_

_will often favor the survival of mutations that cause a change in the other._

_In predator-prey interactions, the evolution of prey defenses in one species_

_can result in the subsequent evolution of a means to foil these defenses in_

_the other. This is often referred to as a co-evolutionary "arms race." Co-_

_evolution also occurs in mutualistic relationships, where two species have a_

_mutually beneficial dependence on one_

_another._

__

_For example, one species of **acacia tree** has _

_evolved features in tandem with a_

_particular species of ant._

_The acacia provides shelter by producing_

_hollow thorns in which the ants can live._

_Your Honour, as you can see, evolution and our origins is a broad and_

_fascinating subject._

_At present we are still finding out new things of how it all came about and_

_how it all happened and we are still learning and discovering new theories_

_and although **we don't know everything** , one thing we do know for sure, _

_Your Honour, is that it did not happen as written in the child's story book of_

_Mr. N. Voy's client._

_One thing we can say with certainty is that creation is the biggest load of_

_nonsensical rubbish that we have ever been told."_

## CHAPTER 11

****

**FILTER, NATURAL SELECTION, MUTATIONS, HYBRIDS**

****

―All be seated. Mr. N. Voy, please take the stand and present your

materials. Your session will close at 3:00 for recess.‖

―Your Honour, members of the Jury, I would like to start with

what the Professor shared with us,

‗Clearly, it is not possible to understand the histories of life and of the

Earth as separate stories.'

I dare to differ with the Professor concerning his statement.

The Professor said further,

‗Scientists are still uncovering the specifics of how, when, and why

evolution produced the life we see on Earth today.

****

**These discussions concern the mechanisms and timing of**

**evolution, not whether descent with modification has occurred.**

What this says, is that all the evidence concerning creation is

automatically rejected, as this does not fit the process of modification,

or the evolution theory.

I am sorry, Your Honour, but that is no open scientific mind. That is

saying, ‗Don't confuse me with the facts, because my mind is made up.

We will not accept any other evidence than what fits the evolution

theory. Hence everything else will be labeled as false evidence and a

hoax. We will not even consider it!'

This is ten times worse than racism and segregation and apartheid all

put together, as it is saying,

'You are not allowed to enter, not because you look different, but

because you think differently and whatever you say will be

automatically rejected by us. You are not allowed in here!'

129

**EVIDENCE ELIMINATING FILTER**

Your Honour, I would like to refer to Cremo & Thomspon,

who are both evolutionists.

They state in their book _'The Hidden History of the Human Race',_

'The primary point we are trying to make . . . .

**there exists in the scientific community a knowledge**

**filter that screens out unwelcome evidence.**

This process of knowledge filtration has been going on for well over a

century and continues to the present day . . . there also appear to be

**cases of more direct suppression.**

****

In the early 1950s . . . Lee was hounded from his Civil Service position

into prolonged unemployment; **. . .** tons of artifacts vanished into

storage bins of the National Museum of Canada; **the Director** of the

National Museum . . . was himself **fired . . .** ' ****

According to David Duckworth, who was employed in the vertebrate

paleontology section of the Smithsonian Institution it seems that in the

fall of 1968 crates marked:

'MT ARARAT -- National Geographic / Smithsonian Expedition'

disappeared in the Smithsonian storage bins.1

This is not science, this is **a cover-up job** , and a bad one at that.

All fossils or evidence that don't fit evolution are rejected.

However there are no fossils that support the mutation of species . . .

Hence we have come up with a new theory called ‗ **the hypothesis of**

**punctuated equilibrium"** ,2 meaning that

transitional forms existed only for brief

periods of time, and so were unlikely to

become fossils.

The 'fittest' individuals are most able to

meet the challenges of a constantly

changing physical and biological world,

surviving to pass their genes to new

**The survival of the fittest**

generations.

As the Professor explained, 'When mutations occur in these

genes, this can lead to the evolution of a new species.'

So Your Honour, members of the Jury, meet my

latest theory; the **Homo Piscibus** (the Fishman).

An evolutionary development of the pearl diver,

who because of thousands of years and

generations of pearl diving are becoming now

fish men.

If I showed this to the pearl-divers, they would

laugh hysterically, or drown me on the spot.

**EACH AFTER THEIR KIND**

****

My client made the animals each after their kind: dogs, horses, cows,

cats, lions, tigers, dinosaurs, goats, sheep, donkeys, elephants, giraffes,

etc. Then there are the birds of the air, doves, geese, ducks, sparrows,

ravens, eagles, etc.

These animals all mix and mate within their kind.

 A Shire horse can mate a Shetland pony. Consequently there are

all types of horses from the Arabian horse to the Lipizzaner.

 A Doberman can mate a German Shepherd. We have all types of

dogs; from Great Danes to Pekinese.

 A Frisian cow can mate with a Hereford bull,

 A Swiss mountain goat can mate a Nigerian dwarf goat.

Although there are sheepdogs, they are not a hybrid of sheep and

dogs. My client has put barriers in between the different species as

he said,

_**'each after his kind.' 1**_

Your Honour, even Mr. Charles Darwin stated that,

**Everything in Nature is the result of Fixed Laws.**

All these animals after their kind will adjust to the different climates

and change according to the survival that is needed in that part of the

world.

131

As the Professor stated, ‗animals and plants display obvious

adaptations to particular climates and environments, as in the

cacti of the deserts of western North America'

**I am not contending NATURAL ADAPTATIONS** ;

Huskies and saint Bernards have thick fur for their climates.

Polar bears and brown bears started differing in colour according to

their survival needs. We have bred many types of cats, ducks and

chickens. Then we have the humans with other human races -

**Some of the most beautiful and handsome people are of mixed races.**

**The Natural Adaptations of the Fox "after his kind."**

Many different foxes developed because of Natural Adaptations.

**What I am contending is MUTATIONS**

The fabrication that through mutation dogs can develop into

horses. A sinonyx changes into a indohyus,

or a tiger into a rat and frogs into birds, and

that we all came from a chemical soup many

millions of years ago. This is **an amazing**

**fantasy world, but no science!**

The Professor stated: 'Mutations can be caused by random errors in

DNA replication or repair, or by **CHEMICAL OR RADIATION**

**DAMAGE**. Most times, mutations are either harmful or neutral, but **in**

**rare instances, a mutation might prove beneficial** to the organism . . .

Mutations are material on which evolution acts **.** '

Evolution is based on the assumption that millions of mutations have

been beneficial and that the bad ones died out because of Natural

Selection. If it was rare to have beneficial mutations and there were

millions of them, then the Earth should be filled with quadrillions of

fossils with harmful or neutral mutations. **** The Professor said, **'fossils**

**are one of the central lines for evolution evidence.'** Where are they?

**CHEMICAL & RADIATION DAMAGE MUTATIONS **

****

Your Honour, remember the dire photos of thalidomide **Chemical**

Mutations of the **Softenon babies** in the nineteen seventies. ****

And recently how harmful the **Radiation** Mutations have been for

**babies born in Middle East warzones.** Radiation of DU (Depleted

Uranium) **2** used in bombs, causing ghastly birth defects. I do not

have the heart to look at them, nor show the images to the court.

Babies without arms, no legs, one eye, open insides, double heads,

**horrific deformities** , that shake my whole inner being to the core.

**Not one mutation** proved chemical or radiation damage **beneficial**.

Your Honour, there are hundreds of images and I will hand you here a

few in this envelope. Please be warned.‖

The Lord Justice takes a quick glance at some of the photos and with a

disturbed look puts them back in the envelope.

As the Justice holds up the envelope, he notifies the scribe,

**"** These will be given to the Jury, but are not for publication with the

transcript. You may publish the links of the chemical 1 and radiation

damage 2 mutations only with the **warning** that these are very

disturbing and **highly disturbing images**.

**HYBRIDS**

****

**"** Next, Your Honour, chimpanzees and humans are closely

related (sharing 95% of their **DNA sequence** and 99% of

coding DNA sequences)

**Joseph Stalin financed a scientist, Dr. Ivanoff, with 200,000 dollars to**

**find out if it was possible to create a human-ape hybrid, the**

**"Humanzee".** Dr. Ivanoff ended up getting exiled to Siberia.

Although it is a contested speculation that a human-ape hybrid is

possible and, believe me, scientists have tried to mix and match these,

to prove evolution over and over again. . . I think finally they

produced a litte humanzee.

The photo I saw was that of a feeble, pathetic, sickly looking newborn

creature, which definitely does not fit 'the survival of the fittest'.

The barriers my client has put are clear and nature adheres to these

barriers, unless we try to break them.

I quote Einstein, ' **Insanity** is doing the same thing over and over again

and expecting different results.' ****

I repeat what Mr. Darwin said,

**'Everything in nature is the result of fixed laws.'**

Another example to support evolution is that of **ANIMAL HYBRIDS**.

A male horse and a female donkey have a **hinny**.

A female horse and a male donkey have a **mule**.

But hinnies and mules can't have babies of their own. They

are **sterile** because they cannot produce sperm or eggs.

Bottlenose dolphins and a fish similar to a killer whale occasionally

produce a mixed offspring known as a **wholphin**.

**LIVING IN HARMONY**

****

Your Honour, I know of a community of roughly 60 to 90 thousand

inhabitants all working together without any problems.1 They have no

police force, nor prisons. They have a level of civilization far above that

of ours. This is a highly scientific community.

In their city, the pathways are designed so that always two can pass

each other in the opposite direction.

Their food storage spaces are constructed in a 4 to 5 degree

angle, so the food does not spill. They are in hexagonal

design, so no space or materials are wasted.

Each of the inhabitants takes mutual roles: sanitation, nursemaid,

builder, admin, security and harvester.

Each inhabitant has a daily inspection routine.

****

**May I introduce, the honey bee.**

Their **modus operandi** is so

complicated, that even a tiny part of

it happening by chance is just

astronomical.

According to evolution the bees

inherited the traits from their

ancestors and the fittest survived

and adapted.

That could sound logical, however **worker bees are born, do their**

**work and die, without ever reproducing their kind**.

However, if someone says that it must have been by the process of

Intelligent Design, he is labeled a naïve, brainless fundamentalist and

stands a very good chance of losing his job as a scientist, lecturer or

teacher.

Your Honour **, I am open for any other explanation, but telling me,**

**"Oh it just happened." I am sorry to say is an insult to my limited**

**intelligence.** When I ask my children, 'Who did it?' And they say, 'Oh,

it just happened.'

Then I know without any doubt that they are not telling me the truth.

If they would try to make it sound scientific, that makes it even worse,

and it definitely will not sell with me and I know neither will it with

you, Your Honour.

am not so sure about the universe.' 1

There is a little bird that spends the summer in Europe, called

the **warbler**. Here they raise their young and then take off for

central Africa, leaving the baby birds behind in the nest, until they are

able to make the long flight also.

Then a few weeks later they actually take off to Africa and meet up

with their parents. **They have not**

**been trained by their parents** as

evolution would advocate.

Except when the little baby

warblers emerge from their eggs,

they are fully programmed,

**NO CHANGE - THE ANTS 2**

****

'The common scientific belief has been that the army ants originated

seperately on several continents over millions of years. Now it is found

there was one evolution. Using fossile

data and the tools of a genetics

detective,

a

Cornell

University

entomologist has discovered that these

ants come from the same ancestor,

because since the reign of the dinosaurs,

about **100 million years** ago, army ants

in essence have not changed a bit.

With jaws still locked together, a vicious

fight between two ants 100 million years

ago has been frozen in time in a piece of

amber discovered in Myanmar (Burma).

The tiny insects were encased in tree sap as they wrestled,

causing them to be preserved within the material as it

fossilized into amber.

Scientists believe the two ants are from different species, which were

alive while the dinosaurs still roamed the planet, and may have been

fighting over food or during a raid on a nest.'

Your Honour, what this shows it that **ants are still the same and did**

**not change since the dinosaurs**. Yet the ant did not evolve in all these

years.

I was visiting a friend who has a precious and semi-precious stone

shop in India.

He showed me a

mosquito in a

was however not

carbon-dated.

## CHAPTER 12

**SUPERATOM, STERILIZATION, THE CHALLENGE**

―It is 3:30. Mr. N. Voy, please take the witness

stand on behalf of creation.‖

**THE BIG BANG EXPLOSION**

―Your Honour, the biggest explosions

that we have known on this Earth were the atomic

explosions. George Lemaître,1 by many hailed as

‗the greatest scientist that you have ever heard of', **George Lemaître**

was a Belgian priest, astronomer and professor of

**1894-1966**

physics at the University of Leuven.

He proposed the theory of the expansion of the universe.

He suggested that the expansion of the universe had resulted from the

explosion of this superatom, that hurled materials in all directions, and

set the universe in motion.

**The expansion of the universe is a fascinating scientific**

**discovery that even caught Einstein by surprise.**

Your Honour, it is a certainty that explosions are destructive, and this

is no 'Rocket Science'. This is common sense.

My aunt got killed in an explosion. Activate one hundred thousand

explosions and they are all destructive, without exception, not one will

be creative or life giving.

We have all seen the results: dead, maimed or burned bodies and

surroundings, whether they are test explosions, gas cylinder

explosions, booby trap explosions, science lab explosions, suicide

explosions, pressure cooker explosions or battlefield explosions.

141

1. https://www.pinterest.com/pin

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Every single one is destructive.

The explosions in Nagasaki and Hiroshima were atom bomb

explosions. These were normal atoms, I wonder, what if they had been

superatoms, like the one in the proposed theory of George Lemaître?

Either Japan would be no longer, or if it was a creative superatom, then

Japan would have become a tourist attraction with all kinds of new life

forms and species.

The definition for Science is,

**to discover FACTS . . to formulate laws and principles**

**based on these FACTS . . .** that can be **verified**

**or tested by further investigation. 1**

Another definition,

**A primary aim of science is to collect FACTS (data). An**

**ultimate purpose of science is to discern the order that**

**exists between and amongst the various FACTS. 2**

The FACTS are that every explosion is destructive, tested, tried and

proven. Maybe we need a new scientific formula: EP=H+D, meaning

the amount of Explosive Power equals the amount of Harm and

Damage caused, depending on the surroundings. Yet we are led to

believe that the greatest explosion of all times was a creative one.

This is totally opposite of any reasoning science, which is supposed to

be based on facts, tests, proven results and formulas.

THIS IS NO FACTUAL SCIENCE, BUT CLEARLY IMAGINATIVE,

THEORETICAL, 'LET'S SUPPOSE' SCIENCE.

This literally takes the lid off Pandora's box as no proof or evidence is

needed to support this science.

**A 'Pandora's box' has come to signify the source of**

**endless complications or trouble, one whose origin is**

**deceptively simple. 3**

us about, two millennia ago,

_**'avoid profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of**_

_**science falsely so called.' 2**_

__

__

**STERILIZATION**

The Professor states that, ―The Earth was able to support life only after

the planet had cooled enough for a rocky crust to solidify‖. . . .

Maybe this cooling process might have taken a million years or maybe

a thousand, but let's be generous and say one day, or even one hour.

I have lived in the tropics and there were many water borne diseases,

which I personally was subjected to.

However **to kill all the bacteria and amoebas and any life form in the**

**water, science had proven that we should bring it to a boil.**

We wanted to make sure, so my wife and

I decided to boil it for twenty minutes to

erase any life form in the water, as we

wanted to be a 100 percent sure. So we

did and were fine.

**The Earth was much hotter than the**

**boiling point of water** , so even if it took

only one hour to cool down, it would

have completely eradicated any chance

for any life form whatsoever to survive.

Everything that might have had any chance to procreate would have

been obliterated in the heat.

Hence **the Earth was completely sterile just like we sterilize needles,**

**syringes and scalpels in heat.**

****

Sterile means,

free from bacteria or other living micro-organisms; totally clean.2

**Science has proven that heat or boiling sterilizes** , it kills bacteria,

viruses, protozoan's, parasites, all life forms!

143

1. 1Timothy 6:20

2. www.encyclopedia.com/topic/sterile.aspx

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The Professor says that in the primordial ―soup‖ of the early

seas, organic molecules concentrated, formed more complex

molecules, and became simple cells.

Your Honour, we have established

that the world was absolutely sterile,

hence there was only non-living

matter.

Okay, let's accept that the Big Bang

happened and somehow as the

Professor says 'a swamp of bubbling

primordial 'soup' formed on Earth'.

Maybe I should explain it more realistically.

No chicken will crawl out of my chicken soup, not in 4.6 billion years,

although it has all the organic molecules and cells, life forms and

ingredients needed to create a chicken, and even if I put a fertilized

chicken egg in the pot, before it comes to a boil.

Hundreds of thousands of cooks worldwide have proven that soup

only decays and starts rotting and stinking, more so after a billion

years.

It is not possible that primordial ‗soup' can turn into life, because it has

been boiled and has become sterile, even if all the proteins and amino

acids needed for life are present. It will not develop into life, not in a

100 billion years, because any life form in it has been destroyed by the

heat.

Another definition of **** STERILE, 1



not abl e to pr od uce cr ops or pl ants .

 not able to produce children, young animals, etc.

 not able to grow or develop .

I will repeat of what the Professor just told us,

―Although scientists have not succeeded in creating life from organic

molecules in the laboratory, they have **reproduced many of the**

**INTERMEDIATE STEPS**.‖

144

1. (simple) Merriam Webster dictionary

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

What can those intermediate steps be? Things are **either dead**

**or alive**. There is no half-dead or half-alive.

There is **NO HALF-ALIVE MATTER** , besides some heartbreaking

humans that look like any life form has left them, who still walk

around, those sad cases who die at thirty, and get buried at sixty.

**SPONTANEOUS GENERATION**

In 1668, an Italian physician, named Francesco

Redi, disproved the idea of spontaneous

generation.

In 1859, Louis Pasteur experimented with the

idea of spontaneous generation. Scientists have

tried it for hundreds of years and have come to

**Louis** **Pasteur**

**1822-"95** the conclusion that only life can produce life.

Louis Pasteur formulated the **Law of Biogenesis** that, 'living things

come only from other living things.'

This law has been criticized and contradicted, because it does not fit

the evolution thought pattern of spontaneous generation.

Although contradicted and criticized because of

'advances in germ theory and cell theory'.

These are all theories and **not one single scientific**

**experiment has proven the 'Law of Biogenesis'**

**wrong. 1**

Pasteur said, 'Spontaneous generation is a dream fantasy.' ****

He was so convinced that he was right, that he stated in 1864,

'Never will the doctrine of spontaneous generation recover

from the mortal blow struck by my simple experiment.'

**AMAZING COMPLEXITIES**

Some things that we take for granted:

When you cut yourself you begin to bleed, but if the cut is not too big,

then shortly afterwards the flow of blood automatically discontinues.

145

**A clot forms** , which is a protein mesh that stops the blood

cells, and eventually closes up the wound entirely, and it also

prevents the plasma from escaping.

This seemingly simple process involves over

a dozen different proteins such as; thrombin,

fibrinogen, Christmas, Stuart, accelerin, etc.

Some help to form the clot, while others are

responsible for regulating clot formation.

Regulating proteins are important as we

only want clots forming on a wound and not

in our arteries.

Vital microscopic 'hairs' that we take for granted: **the Cilia** are tiny

hair-like structures on the outside of cells that either help move fluid

over a stationary cell, such as the cells in your lungs, or serve as a

means of propelling a cell through water, as in the single-celled

paramecium. 1

Your Honour, we are so amazingly complex

and I am glad that there are scientists that can

study these matters.

So many stand in awe whether they believe in

my client or not.

They are amazed at the complexity and beauty of it all and how it all

works together in unison.

Molecular biologists have learned

about the sophisticated coding

within DNA.

It is not possible for an honest

scientist not to stand in wonder,

when observing the complexity of

what goes on in a human cell or in

the universe, whether we look

through a microscope or telescope.

Someone who would say the following would be considered a

creationist and a person with little or no intelligence,

'The impossibility that this grand and wondrous universe, with

our conscious selves, arose through chance, seems to me the

chief argument for the existence of God.'

****

Who would say something like this? It was the Professor's client

himself, Mr. Charles Darwin .

__

Let us take a quick look at the **eye**. The lens of our eye is critical in

forming a sharp image; however, this is one of the most amazing

features of the human eye that it can adjust so quickly when focusing

objects at different distances.

This process of adjustment is

known as ‗accommodation'.1

Besides other things working

together such as the aqueous

humor and the vitreous

humor, a muscle known as the

ciliary muscle changes the lens

shape, so that we can focus on

close by or far away. 2

I'll read the following quote.

'To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for

adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting the

different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical

and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural

selection, seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest

possible degree.'

Your Honour, this was said in 1872 by none other than again Mr.

Charles Darwin himself.

I repeat,

―To suppose that the eye . . . could have been formed by

NATURAL SELECTION, SEEMS, I FREELY CONFESS,

**ABSURD** IN THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE DEGREE.‖

If Mr. Darwin says this of the eye, wait till we get to the DNA and the

human brain.

__

Your Honour, if these are Mr. Darwin's sentiments, then what are we

having this whole court case for? And why did the Professor and I

spend so much of our precious time investigating for both our clients,

or could it be that our search for answers leads us to the same

destination.

**REFUSING TO ACCEPT EVIDENCE**

Dr. Einstein said there are three kinds of people

1. Those who see,

2. Those who see when they are shown,

3. Those who do not see.

I like to add number four,

4. There are none so blind, as those who refuse

to see.

Marie Curie added the fifth, when she stated _:_

__ 5. __ ―There are sadistic **1** scientists who hurry to

**Marie Curie**

hunt down errors instead of establishing the truth.‖

**1867-1934**

It is the fifth, the last and lowest level, which is doing the most damage

to the reputation of science.

Those who refuse to accept my client's involvement, or by finding

minor flaws in the reputation or character of others, be they scientists

or otherwise, will stoop so low as to say anything to defend their

personal doctrines and theories, be they true or false, such as:

**Concerning Noah"s Ark:**

Dr. Price, director of the Center for Judaic Studies, at Liberty

University at Lynchburg Va., ‗has reason to believe, that a group of

local Kurdish men had taken wood from an old structure in

the **** Black Sea area, and trucked the wood up to the mountain.

They staged an elaborate hoax for the Chinese expedition.' 1

The Chinese expedition was in 2009. The Black Sea is

approximately 500 km from Mount Ararat.

There are no roads or paths on Ararat to truck things up the

mountain, besides the Kurds are fighting a war and they don't have

time for such incredible, unbelievable nonsense.

**The Yonaguni underwater city:** (photo on pg. 98) ****

The Yonaguni site consists of huge stone blocks which fit together

perfectly, right angled joins, carvings and what appear to be stairways,

paved streets, crossroads and plazas.

Despite the unusual features displayed, there remain some scientists,

such as Geologist Robert Schoch of Boston University, who have

studied the formation and who are adamant that the large blocks

formed naturally as a result of tectonic movement. 2

**The ancient underwater city in the gulf of Alykanas in Zakynthos** ,

Greece: (photo on pg. 98)

According to the Underwater Antiquities Department, the discovery

included huge public buildings, cobblestone paving, bases for pillars

and other antiquities. Of particular significance were the 20 stone pillar

bases, all of which feature a '34 cm diameter incision'.

A study released in December claimed that the ‗artifacts' are not

remnants of an ancient city at all, but simply a unique natural

phenomenon. 3

Your Honour, I'm sorry to say, these are no studies! Anyone can see

that this is the purest nonsensical figment of someone's imagination.

**Adolf Hitler** wrote in ‗Mein Kampf',

'It would never come into the heads of the broad

masses to fabricate colossal untruths, and they

would not believe that others could have the

impudence to **distort the truth so infamously**. . . .

They will still doubt and waver and will continue

to think that there may be some other explanation.

For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it,

even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to

all expert liars in this world.'

What Hitler is really saying,

If you tell a lie, tell a big one. Keep repeating it, and they will

believe you, because no one would think that you had the nerve

to tell something so big, if it was not the truth.

Isn't that how it works when the media is predisposed?

Isn't truth usually the first victim in war also?

I know this court case will also get its share of biased coverage. You,

Your Honour, the Professor, myself, and the scribe that is recording

this case, we all run the risk to be at the receiving end of it.

_**THE CHALLENGE**_

_The Professor interrupts, and with a_

_determination,_

_not_

_natural_

_to_

_his_

_personality, he daringly proclaims,_

_"Your Honour, I challenge Mr. N. Voy, to_

_explain to the court in scientific terms how_

_his client, or let us call a spade a spade, how_

_this so-called God of his, made the world, and_

_that in six days?_

__

_**I challenge him to explain in scientific**_

_**terms, with proper formulas how this**_

_**quote unquote "God" created the world**_

_**and the universe.** _

_If he can explain it clearly then I might consider, with the emphasis on_

_might, that there is an intelligent design behind it after all._

__

_Your Honour, although this has been a closed case, I ask that you will invite_

_the press into the courtroom, when Mr. N. Voy gives his explanation on how_

_it all happened._

150

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

__

_I would like to once and for all put an end to this. It is either evolution_

_or creation and if Mr. N. Voy cannot come up with a proper scientific_

_explanation, then I will stay absolutely convinced that our origins lie in the_

_process of evolution, no matter how many missing links, closed-minded_

_scientists, or flaws there might be._

__

_If Mr. N. Voy's client is what he makes out to be, then he must have a_

_scientific explanation for the creation process, as he is supposed to be_

_omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient._

_**Omniscient meaning he knows all the science possible and all the**_

_**scientific formulas.**_

_This is my challenge to Mr. N. Voy, to the court and to myself."_

__

__

The honourable Justice breathes deeply, and there is a moment of quiet

thought before he speaks in a calm and collect voice,

―If Mr. N. Voy will accept the challenge, then the court will resume on

Monday morning 9:30 a.m.

I will discuss with the Jury concerning the press entering the

courtroom, which I personally would prefer not to.

However seeing we all need to have an open mind I will discuss the

attendance of the press with the members of the Jury.

So Mr. N. Voy, do you accept this challenge?‖

There is a long pause. Mr. N. Voy seems in deep thought,

tapping his lips with his index finger.

―I can't help but find this rather biased against my client, as there are

no scientific formulas given for the evolution theory. Nevertheless I

have this weekend ahead of me to prepare, so yes, Your Honour,

members of the Jury, and dear Professor, I do accept this challenge and

would have no objections if the press was present.

However all this is on one condition, that I may give my rhetoric

**without interruption** , except from you, Your Honour.

I also ask the court for a white board and marker, in case clarification is

needed.‖

**SCIENTIFIC ACCOUNT OF DESIGNED ORIGINS**

It is Monday morning and the clock shows 9:30.

―All rise! This is the last day concerning the case 'Evolution and

Creation'. Presiding over the court is the honourable Lord Justice, Dr.

E. Dict.‖

The honourable Lord Justice speaks,

―To all present, including the press, I would like to reiterate that this is

a criminal case. This is only the second time in my career that I have

invited the press into the courtroom.

The ladies and gentlemen of the press will not be allowed to interview

the witness for evolution and the witness for creation until after the

case if they so wish. However, no harassment or questioning during

the case will be allowed. This is not an infringement on the freedom of

speech, this is to keep order in the court.

A complete word-for-word transcript of the case will be available

shortly in a free download publication named,

_'In the Beginning . . . then What? - 'Evolution and Creation'._

Ladies and gentlemen, if order cannot be kept the security guards are

here to escort you out of the courtroom. I hope that I have made myself

clear.

Mr. N. Voy, please take the stand. Some of your explanations have

been in great detail, but this session will close by 12:00 sharp.

After lunch at 1:30, both you and the Professor will give your final

presentation and defense before the Jury.‖

153

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

―I will do my best, Your Honour.

The question is, how did the world come about in scientific

terms?

As a child I was intrigued by

what my physics teacher told

us in class. He explained that

he could not understand why,

when we clap our hands, our

hands don't pass through one

another.

He gave details how we are

made up out of molecules

and that the molecules are

made of atoms. Atoms consist

of neutrons and protons,

which have no mass but are

energy.

I was only 9 or 10 years old, but was absolutely fascinated by his

explanation.

**QUANTUM PHYSICS**

I quote, **"What we perceive as our physical material world, is really**

**not physical or material at all, in fact, it is far from it.** This has been

proven time and time again by multiple Nobel Prize (among many

other scientists around the world) winning physicists, one of them

being Niels Bohr, a Danish

Physicist

who

made

significant contributions to

understanding

atomic

structure and quantum

theory.'1

**Niels Bohr**

'If quantum mechanics hasn't profoundly shocked you, you haven't

understood it yet.

154

1. www.collective-evolution.com/.../this-is-the- **world** -of-quantum-physics

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be

regarded as real.' – Niels Bohr

Scientists began to recognize that everything in the Universe is made

out of energy!

Atoms are made out of **invisible energy, not tangible matter.**

__

Quantum physicists discovered that physical atoms are made up of

**vortices of energy** that are constantly spinning and vibrating, each one

radiating its own unique energy signature.

'Therefore, if we really want to observe ourselves and find out what we

are, **we are really beings of energy and vibration, radiating our own**

**unique energy signature** \- this is fact and is what QUANTUM

PHYSICS has shown us time and time again.'

We are much more than what we perceive ourselves to be, and it's time

we begin to see ourselves in that light. __

'Get over it, and accept the inarguable conclusion. The universe is

immaterial – It is mental and spiritual' __ – Richard Conn Henry,

Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University.

This is exactly what my client wrote two millennia ago.

_**'so that things which are seen**_

_**were not made of things which do appear.' 1**_

__

__

Your Honour, in other words we are made up out of nothing but

energy and yet here we are. Truly amazing!

At present we are limited, or I would say locked in to our four

dimensions: time, length, width and height, but there is more to it than

meets the eye. Werner Heisenberg said, "Only a few know, how much

one must know to know how little one knows."

An omniscient mastermind, with an unreasonable, artistic passion to

create something beautiful brought this about and is what literally

holds us together.

Our modern technology sheds some light on how my client went about

it. My client writes, I will read in first person:

_**'In the beginning I created the heaven and the earth' 2**_

The literal translation by Young states:

_**'In the beginning I PREPARED the heaven and the earth' 2**_

This is in the beginning, or

before time was, **he prepared**

**it all just like we prepare a**

**product,** whether it is a

website, a car, an interactive

software application, or a

book.

At present we are limited to

our four dimensions: time,

length, width and height. The lack of these four-dimensional

parameters is beautifully described in the next verse,

_**'The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of**_

_**the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.' 3**_ ****

156

1. Hebrews 11:3

2. Genesis 1:1

3. Genesis 1:2

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

It could have taken my client a millisecond or billions of years

ad infinitum to prepare his creation, as time did not yet exist.

I will read from his writing,

_**'I**_ **_made the earth and the heavens, and every plant of the field before it was_**

_**in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew:' 1**_

****

The spirit of wisdom speaks of this preparation time,

_**'Oh you simple. . I wisdom . . speak truth. . When he had not yet made the**_

_**earth, nor the fields . . Before the mountains were settled . .**_

_**When he prepared the heavens, I was there. . When he appointed**_

_**the foundations of the earth. . then I was by him . .'**_ **2**

He took his time to plan it and prepare it in such detail that we still

constantly discover new things concerning it through science.

Deep down inside, whether we are atheists, agnostics or believers, we

all know that things could not just have come together like this out of a

random explosion.

Professor Stephen Hawkins, who is not exactly a promoter of my

client, writes, ‗The remarkable fact is that the values of these numbers

seem to have been **very finely adjusted to make possible the**

**development of life."**

**MODERN TECHNOLOGY EXPLAINS CREATION**

My client was preparing, designing, philosophizing, creating and

weighing out the pro's and con's of his design.

When everything was ready and his whole

preparation to the minutest detail was in

place and it was ready to be uploaded or

launched into our four dimensions that we

understand, he simply spoke his design into

being.

It is a system that we have not yet developed

because it prints as it is uploading our design or creation.

157

1. Genesis 2:4,5

2. Proverbs 8:5,7,25,27,29,30

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

My client's voice recorder activates his computer and as it

uploads his data, it simultaneously prints and creates what it

launches.

Nowadays we have 3D printers, with which we are experimenting to

try to print human organs.

My client's printer is not just a 3D printer, but a fascinating 8D printer.

A printer that can print plants, trees, fruits, seeds and flowers with

their feelings as well as the galaxies and their orbits. It can print birds,

fish and animals each different one from the other and each with their

own instinct. All made up out of pure energy.

Each 6 steps of uploading took less than a 24 hour day. We see that my

client spoke his creation into being. Each new day in Genesis 1 starts

with,

_**'And I said, let there be. .'**_

**ENERGY & KINETIC ENERGY **

****

**Energy alone cannot create, it has to be active or kinetic energy.**

When my client speaks and goes into action, then **his word becomes**

**the active "kinetic energy"**.

He is action, he works from simply changing

hearts and minds to expanding the universe.

My client actually revealed the simple formula on

which his printing system operates to a humble

man, in a patent office in Bern, Switzerland.

This formula made him famous. When asked about his genius, he

answered, ―I am nothing but a product of my parents and teachers.‖

158

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

It is humble people like that, that my client likes working with.

Not the high and mighty know-it-alls.

The Danish scientist Øle Rømer, was only 21 when he made his

discovery concerning the speed of light. He then calculated the speed

of light by observing the eclipses of Jupiter's moon during the years

1668–1674.

This simple clerk in Bern, who was studying all these scientific papers

that were submitted for patent copyright, wanted to find a simple

formula by which everything exists.

A formula that governs all mass and everything

that is. Of course now we know the Theory of

Relativity formula of Dr. Albert Einstein:

****

**E=mc2**

Energy ( **E** ) equals mass ( **m** ) times speed of light

**"If the solution is simple,**

**God is answering." 1**

( **c** ) to the square.

The **First law of Thermodynamics** states that 'Energy cannot be

created nor destroyed', so it is and will always be. My client wrote:

_**'I am, that I am.2. . . I am the Alpha and the Omega,**_

_**the beginning and the end.'**_ **3**

Your Honour, my client is the energy that always is. Thus creation

becomes very simple: my client, being energy, spoke and **his word**

**became the active 'kinetic energy'** , which equals that mass was

produced instantly, by his word, at the speed of light to the square.

His word was needed for creation to take place.

When my client had his plan ready, **all he needed to do was speak the**

**word and the word did the rest.**

_**'In the beginning was the word . . and without the word was not anything**_

_**made that was made . .The word was made flesh and dwelt among us . .**_

_**He was in the world that was made by him, and the world knew him not.' 4**_

Our four dimensional mindset cannot yet fully grasp the importance of

this word for discovering our life's plan, goal and fulfillment.

E=mc2 also shows that mass, cannot exist without energy,

without my client. This means that without my client, or

energy, there is absolutely nothing.

Nothing can exist, nothing can be, no big bang explosion, nothing can

take form or be mass, as only mass can exist because of energy.

**THE ACTION STARTS - FIRST OUR FOUR DIMENSIONS**

Seeing that nothing exists without time in our four dimensions, he first

had to upload time. For time to exist he was required to create light.

This light had to be separated from the darkness, to

distinguish the days and to give colours their beauty:

_**'And my client said, Let there be light: and there was light.**_

_**he divided the light from the darkness.. . the**_

_**evening and the morning were the 1st day.' 1**_

Now **TIME** was in place. **Next** is **LENGTH, WIDTH** and **HEIGHT.**

_**'And he said, Let there be a firmament . . . and divided the waters which**_

_**were under the firmament from the waters which were above the**_

_**firmament. . . the 2nd day.' 2**_ ****

Firmament is **Length** and **Width** , while under and above is **Height**.

**NEXT - GRAVITY**

Next he uploads gravity to dry

the land, and uploads plant life;

__

_**'And my client said, Let the waters**_

_**under the heaven be gathered**_

_**together unto one place, and let the**_

_**dry land appear.'**_

_****_

This means **GRAVITY** __ is in place. __

__

_**'And He said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the**_

_**fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth:**_

_**and it was so. . . . the 3rd day.' 3**_

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Here we see clearly that the days are 24-hour days, measured

according to time as we know it, as grass and vegetation cannot

exist without the sun, which my client created, decreed, launched or

uploaded the next day.

**THEN -** **THE MYSTERIOUS UNIVERSE** :

_**'And my client said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to**_

_**divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons,**_

_**and for days, and years:**_

_**And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the**_

_**lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.**_

_**And set them in the firmament of the heaven**_

_**. . . to give light upon the earth. . . the 4th day.' 1**_

This morning, Your Honour, I woke up at 2:30 and was wondering

why my client made the Earth's gravitational pull with the grass and

vegetation, before he created the firmament of the heavens or the

universe with the sun etc.?

**It somehow did not make sense to me** , and he should have made

these before he made the vegetation . . . because sunlight is needed for

plant life.

However the thought crossed my mind . . . **could it be that the Earth"s**

**gravitational pull was first and afterwards the universe as the**

**gravitational pull holds the whole universe together and the Earth is**

**the actual centre of the universe?**

I tried to push it aside as entire

nonsense and that this could not be

and was totally crazy and not in line

with Copernicus, who already did

away with this around the 1500's.

Everyone will say that I'm utterly out

of my mind, that I come out of the

dark ages and that I should update

myself, or get a brain-scan.

**Nicolaus Copernicus 1473-1543**

161

1. Genesis 1:14-19

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

I realized though that it was my client trying to get a message

across to me, as I could not go back to sleep, so I took some

notes.

It was previously thought that the Earth's gravitational pull

weakens or diminishes at the rate of about 5% per century,

more recently it's estimated to be about 5% every decade.1

Like I said before concerning Lemaître,

The expansion of the universe is a fascinating scientific discovery that

even caught Einstein by surprise.

So the question is:

Seeing that the universe was made after the Earth's gravity, could it be

that the Earth's gravitational pull holds it all together, and

**COULD THE WEAKENING OF THE EARTH"S GRAVITATIONAL**

**PULL HAVE A DIRECT INFLUENCE ON THE EXPANSION OF**

**THE UNIVERSE, AND ARE THE TWO INTERRELATED?**

I stayed up, did research and came across this article:

'In 1929 Edwin Hubble announced that he had measured the speed of

galaxies at different distances from us, and had discovered that the

farther they were, the faster they were receding. . . **This might suggest**

**that we are at the centre of the expanding universe**.'

The article ends with: 'We still have no real answer to the question,

Where is the centre of the universe?' 1

Hubble discovered that the farther the galaxies

were, the faster they were receding.

This makes total sense, if the Earth's gravitational

pull is somehow holding the universe together, as

the Earth is losing its gravitational strength, the

farther away the galaxies are the weaker the

gravitational pull, so the faster they will recede or

Edwin Powel Hubble

move away.

Next I came across this following shocking, jaw-dropping article.

162

1. http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

‗Physics Professor John Hartnett, with Australia's

University of Adelaide, studied, the locations of some

**400,000 GALAXIES** from the 2005 Sloan Digital Sky

Survey and was astounded to see a surprising form

and pattern in how they're arrayed,

**ALL WITH EARTH AT THE CENTER.** '

'As if the galaxies preferred to lie at some **John Hartnett**

periodic spacing out from the Earth,'

Hartnett explains in the documentary.

'This is sort of like saying that our galaxy

is somewhere near the center of the

universe, and when you look at the

galaxies arrayed all around us, they're on

sort of like gigantic shells.' 1

There is a movie or documentary made about it called **'the principle'.**

It is so shocking to the world of science, that even some scientists said

afterwards, 'I have no idea how I ended up in that stupid geocentrism

documentary.'

That is the weakest excuse I ever heard. Was that scientist drugged,

that he refuses to take responsibility for what he did?

He continues with, 'The best thing we can all do when faced by

nonsense like that, or equivalent silliness promoted by biblical

fundamentalists who claim that science supports a literal interpretation

of the Bible, is to ignore it in public forums, and not shine any light on

the authors of this trash.'

Is he the kind of scientist that Marie Curie was referring to when she

said, 'There are sadistic scientists who hurry to hunt down errors,

instead of establishing the truth.'

**One shred of fact and objective evidence, that it is not true, is all that**

**is needed**.

We don't need to abase ourselves to subjective, gutter-level, name

calling.

We don't have to be educated scientists to shout: 'Rubbish,

Nonsense, Stupid idiots, Ridiculous, No-Brains, Trash, Fools,

Fundamentalists, God-deluded, Bible-bashers, etc.'

Any uneducated rogue can do that.

I do feel sorry for people like that, because in the end they only harm

themselves. Once we promote what we know is not the truth then we

start convincing ourselves.

And in the end we get more and more confused and start hiding

behind a façade of seniority and **'don"t confuse me with the facts,**

**because my mind is made up.'**

In order to defend ourselves we end up throwing dirt, barking and

‗I want to know God's thoughts. The rest are details.' 1B

Your Honour, I can't understand what upsets people so about my

client, he really is cool, has a head on his shoulders, a great sense of

humor, down-to-earth, he's a great problem solver, he knows what is

going on, he does not pretend, he is generous, he has got a heart of

gold, **keeps his word and he is the most amazing soul-mate.**

I tell him everything good and bad, and he loves me for it and in spite

of it.

However, I must say that he definitely has a mind of his own, he does

not cow-tow to opinions, he knows what he wants and sees his project

through, no matter what you or I say or do, but he does listen to

reason.

Back to the universe, A few months ago I came across this article:

****

**IS OUR UNIVERSE A HOLOGRAM?**

UNIVERSE COULD BE A MERE PROJECTION

164

1A & 1B. Dr. Albert Einstein

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

'In December, 2015, Japanese researchers attempted to tackle

this problem by providing mathematical evidence that the

holographic principle might be correct.

The holographic principle suggests

that, like the security chip on a credit

card for example, there is a two-

dimensional surface that contains all

the information needed to describe a

three-dimensional object - which in

this case is our universe.

We are living in a giant hologram,

and everything we see around us is **a**

**projection of a 2D surface**.' 1

This could very well be true as my client wrote,

_**'And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together' 2**_

A scroll is two-dimensional, so it does seem that the Japanese scientists

are on to something.

**The word UNI-VERSUM**

****

Scientists have been baffled with the immensity of the universe since

the beginning of civilization. The Professor states that the Big Bang is

silent concerning how the universe began.

But let us look simply at the word universe. Universe is a contraction

of two Latin words **UNI** , meaning One, and **VERSUM** , is verse or

sentence. In other words one short sentence spoken by my client and

there it was the Universe at the speed of light to the square.

**The concept of TIME**

At present we are limited to our four-dimensional world, and we don't

yet comprehend infinity, limitless, perpetuity and without end, eternal

time-less. It does not fit within the parameters of our four-dimensional

mindset and boxes. Time is only four-dimensional.

'The latest research from Washington University suggests

that in the quantum world time runs both backward and

forward whereas in the classical world it only runs forward.'1

Einstein wrote, '. for us physicists believe the separation between past,

present, and future is only an illusion, although a convincing one.'

My client wrote two millennia ago, that there will come a time that _,_

__

__

_**'there should be time no longer.' 2**_

__

When time comes to an end, and we leave our four-dimensional

parameters, then we will experience reality as it actually, truly is.

I think that we might be so sorry then that we kept up our four-

dimensional delusions of hiding our selfishness, corruption, lust for

power, and our lack of concern for others, behind ‗Religious Piety',

‗Noble Politics', and ‗Just Wars', etc.

But let me continue with creation, as next my client is getting into it

and we start seeing some amazing action:

These are no Sunday school fairy tales, this is;

_**bring forth abundantly the**_

_**moving creatures that have**_

These five days are

followed by the big day:

I will share a few lines from my client's writing when he was

talking to Job. Job was not too happy, arguing with my client,

as he thought, like many of us, that he was such a righteous or good

man and he objected to the testing of his character.

_**My client answered Job, 'Will you condemn me, that you may be righteous?**_

_**Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?**_

_**Do you know the ordinances of heaven?**_

_**Can you send lightnings? Did you give the goodly wings unto the peacocks?**_

_**Have you given the horse strength?**_

stupid, and I am very sorry for my big mouth'

_**'My client blessed the end of Job more than his beginning.' 1**_

**NO RUSH, HE TOOK HIS TIME**

As for his creation, **my client took his time with using six 24-hour**

**days** to upload his prepared design. He could have rattled the whole

thing off, at the speed of light to the square.

This option is according to more recent research a definite possibility.

'If it is verified, the discovery will prove the theory that the universe

expanded incredibly rapidly in **less than a trillionth of a second** after

it was formed. Max Tegmark, a cosmologist at MIT, told the **** New York

Times: "If this stays true, it will go down as one of the greatest discoveries in the history of science." 2

British scientist, Dr. Jo Dunkley, of the European Planck

Space Agency, commented, 'I can't tell you how exciting this

is. Inflation sounds like a crazy idea, but everything that is important,

everything we see today - the galaxies, the stars, the planets - was

imprinted at that moment, in **less than a trillionth of a second**. If this

is confirmed, it's huge.' 1

Your Honour, my client spread it out over six days, **he took his time,**

**he went slow and sat down at the end of every day, as he wrote,**

_' **and I saw that it was good.' 2**_

__

So obviously he took the time to enjoy what he was creating and to see

if it was exactly how he wanted it.

**HIS 'MAGNUM OPUS'**

Now that he had everything in place, **the stage was set for his ultimate**

**creation** , his ultimate work of art. This he did not want to speak into

being – This final creation he wanted to make with his hands.

Like the artist who becomes a part of his artwork, by putting his heart

and soul and everything of himself into his creation and has **pride in**

**the work of his hands, so** **my client put his heart and soul into**

**creating his final masterpiece,** his

'Magnum Opus'.

I will read the first person,

_**'So I created man in my own image, in**_

_**my personal image I created him; male**_

_**and female created I them.' 3**_

The Ultimate Masterpiece the reason for it all: MAN!

_**'And I formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils**_

_**the breath of life; and man became a living soul.' 4**_

_****_

He created us in the four dimensional realm, yet 'he breathed into us

the breath of life and man became a living soul'. Our soul sets us apart

from animals. No matter what anyone says, or tries to match DNA's.

Although we are presently limited to our four dimensions, as

humans we have received a measure of my client's love, his

freedom, and spirit, as our soul, which is from a much higher

dimension. Hence many of us feel like caged birds, as **we are restricted**

**to four dimensions, while our soul seeks to break free from these**

**limitations, craving for love and freedom.** This freedom we rediscover

when we connect again with the source.

__

Now a brief look at our four-dimensional physical body.

**THE HUMAN CELL** :

The human cell has a genome. It is amazing how many different

proteins and other functions the genome contains.

The genome has a complete set of DNA,

which contains around 3.2 billion

DNA base pairs.

The genome is arranged into 23 pairs

of chromosomes and is estimated to

contain 20,000-25,000 genes, which

pretty much determine our physical

and hereditary make-up.

In 2012 scientist discovered that the human

cell has around 4,000,000 switches

connected to the organs and different parts

of the body.

Thus the human cell is far **more complex**

**than London or Mumbai** and we consist of

37.2 trillion cells 1 all working together.

**THE HUMAN BRAIN** :

Neuroscientist Jeff Lichtman2 lectured

at Harvard, that if we try to index our

1½ kg human brain we need several

billion petabytes 3 of data storage.

169

1. https://wonderopolis.org/wonder/how-many-cells-are-in-the-human-body

2. Jeffrey Lichtman, MD, PhD, Prof. molecular & cellular biology – Harvard

3. 1 petabyte = 1000 terabytes = 1.000.000 Gigabytes.

__

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

As of July 2013, the internet

was approximately 5,000

petabytes.

Google used 200 terabytes of this or

0.04%. (07/2013 - D. Schilling)

Hence to attempt to index our brain,

we need at least 2 billion petabytes,

which equals **100 million times all the Google data** , as of July, 2013.

Your Honour, members of the Jury, if I insist and tell you in all

sincerity, that there occurred an explosion in a print shop, and

consequently the 32 volumes of 'Encyclopedia Britannica' came

together as a result, then obviously I have lost my reasoning senses and

you will advise me to see a psychiatrist, and you should.

Yet, the Encyclopedia Britannica is

non-living matter, which has much

greater probability to be assembled

from non-living matter, than living

matter evolving from non-living

matter.

To index the encyclopedia takes 1

(one) Gigabyte. To index our brains, I

am not even talking about the rest of

our body, takes at least 2 quadrillion Gigabytes.

**Hence although my theory of the Encyclopedia Britannica evolving**

**from a print-shop explosion is nonsensical and ludicrous, yet it is**

**2,000,000,000,000,000 times more probable than my brain coming**

**together from an explosion in space.**

Your Honour, talk about brains, talk about science, talk about amazing

still-to-be-discovered technology, scientific formulas, my client is the

ultimate.

My client knew exactly what he was doing, as Einstein said, 'God

doesn't play dice.'

170

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

**BIOLOGICAL DATA STORAGE**

Your Honour, one human cell can store 1.5 GB (gigabytes)

data in its DNA.1 The digital size of the Encyclopedia Britannica is

approx 1 GB. 2 Therefore one human cell can easily hold the data of all

32 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

I quote, 'The work, carried out by George Church and Sri Kosuri,

basically treats DNA as just another digital storage device.. . . . **DNA**

**can survive for hundreds of thousands of years** in a box in your

garage . . . . . in a **droplet of DNA** that would fit on the tip of your

pinky. To store the same kind of data on hard drives — the densest

storage medium in use today — you'd need **233 3TB drives** , weighing

151 kilos. . . . **Biological storage allows us to record everything**..' 3

With unbelievable complex DNA biological data storage taken from

living creatures, there is no doubt in my mind that **my client is the**

**unquestionable, absolute pinnacle of science**.

**RESURRECTION - CLONING NEW BODIES**

In Turin, northern Italy, is one of the most controversial, puzzling, and

studied pieces of cloth in human history. **The shroud of Turin** is

preserved in the 'Chapel of the Shroud' in the Turin Cathedral, and is

deemed to be the 'grave cloth of Jesus'.

In it we see his inflicted wounds, his

swollen eye, the stripes on the back of his

body, the cut marks of the crown of thorns

on his head and the spear wound in his

side.

Although many have tried to ‗prove' that it

is a fraud, as of today hundreds of scientists

have found no explanation for the image on

the shroud. All the theories from radiation

to scorching to the bioplastic coating and

from painting to vaporographic theories

have been ruled out.

3. www.extremetech.com/extreme/134672-harvard-cracks-dna-storage-

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

The only alternative is that the image on the shroud was the

result of the resurrection of his body. With Einstein's simple

scientific formula, E=mc2, it all falls into place.

In other words, when my client raised his son's dead body mass at the

speed of light to the square, in that moment of time, the speed of light

to the square burned his image onto the fabric that covered him, and it

left us the physical, material proof of his resurrection on his grave

cloth.1

_**'Look, I show you a mystery. . In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye**_ (c2) _, ****_

_**at the last trump: for the trumpet 2 shall sound, and the dead shall be raised**_

_**incorruptible, and we shall be changed. . .' 3**_

Even this formerly unattainable feat and 'religious nonsense' now

becomes possible as our DNA is almost impossible to be destroyed.

Even if our physical DNA is destroyed, according to quantum physics

we are spiritual beings.

I repeat: 'Quantum physicists discovered that . . if we really want to

observe ourselves and find out what we are, we are really beings of

energy and vibration, radiating our own unique energy signature -

'Get over it, and accept the inarguable

conclusion. The universe is immaterial – It

is mental and spiritual.' _4_

People on Earth with severe handicaps

have time-travelled and seen themselves

completely whole in the heavenly realm.

Hence our soul will join our body again, as

my client clones our personal body in a

new incorruptible body at the speed of

light to the square, seeing our personal

DNA or 'our own unique energy signature'

is recorded in an indestructible file, called,

_**'the Book of Life' 5**_ ****

For this reason, Your Honour, what we are learning will never

be wasted, but will stay with us in our DNA forever after our

resurrection.

Resurrection means in scientific terms that when my client acts and

becomes kinetic energy he will clone our personal DNA into a new

body mass, at the speed of light to the square, while **all that we**

**learned will automatically be part of us**.

This time, when our soul will join our body mass again, the body mass

will be a new 'out-of-this-four-dimensional-world' body, similar to the

one that Jesus had after his resurrection. He could freely shift in and

out of our four-dimensional parameters. He could eat, walk through

walls, disguise himself and was not subject to gravity.

Everyone else is raised on ‗the day of judgment'. My client has to allow

things to take its full course, to see what character we each develop.

Did I choose love, or look the other way? Did I heal or hurt, care or

curse, give or grab? Nothing will be swept under the carpet.

My client relates very much to what Steve Jobs

said: 'Maybe it's because I want to believe in an

afterlife, that when you die, it doesn't just all

disappear. The wisdom you've accumulated,

somehow it lives on, but sometimes I think it's

just like an on-off switch. Click and you're gone.

I think my client blessed him for that statement, because he

departed from the world with this sense of wonder, saying,

'Oh wow. Oh wow. Oh wow.'1

If Steve Jobs does not like on-off switches, neither does my client. He

will not just flip the switch on us.

Time and again we use our intelligence to prove ourselves

right. However if we can relax and open up to the beautiful

things around us, then life becomes an amazing journey.

But let us travel back in time to my client's original creation, his

Magnum Opus.

My client also said to Adam:

_**'you return unto the ground; for out of it you were taken: for dust you are,**_

_**and unto dust shall you return.' 2**_

stage. If geniuses like Newton, Pasteur, Planck, Einstein, Wernher von

Braun all believed in a designer and even Charles Darwin said, ―To

suppose that the eye . . . could have been formed by natural selection,

seems, I freely confess, absurd in the highest possible degree‖, isn't it

time we wizen up?

**POSITIVE ENERGY**

****

**My client is energy in the purest, most**

**positive form, which is love.**

Love that is manifested on Earth in creativity.

**Gravitation is** **not**

Love creates art, sculptures, paintings, music

**responsible for people**

and babies - all which fill us with such

exhilarating glee.

All of nature is there to bring us his positive energy.

Go for a walk and enjoy it.

Ride a horse, it'll thrill you.

Hold a girl, it will change you.

Go for a swim, it will renew you.

It is all put there by my client for us to

enjoy, because he only wants the very

best for us.

In enjoying it we partake of his life-giving energy and we get renewed,

reinvigorated and get that spring back in our step.

Our insurmountable problems and

disastrous obstacles will turn into

challenges that we want to conquer and

find answers for, because his positive

energy will help us tackle it.

Remember,

'No problem can be solved from the

same level of consciousness that created

it.' 1

Tap into my client and nothing becomes impossible! 2

Seeing that we are all made out of pure energy, let us make sure that

we tap into the right energy source. The positive one, which will lift us

above the mundane and helps us find solutions.

**BLACK HOLES**

On the contrary, the negative energy can

suck you into a black hole vortex of despair

and hopelessness.

Black holes are very real and inside each star

in the universe there is a battle royal going

between the gravitational pull of the star

pulling inwards on the one side, and explosions pushing outward.

175

1. Dr. Albert Einstein

2. Luke 1:37; 18:27

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

These nuclear explosions inside the star that are pushing

outward are creating pressure to balance against the

gravitational pull of drawing the star inwards, to make it a black hole.

When the energy of the star has died out, the star collapses under its

own weight and it becomes a black hole.1

My client compares us to stars. He says,

_**'They that are wise shall shine as the**_

_**brightness of the firmament and they that turn**_

_**many to righteousness as the stars**_

_**forever and ever.' 2**_

__

My client on

the one side is

the

positive

energy of our

star and if we partake of that energy we

get renewed, inspired, and reinvigorated

with positive explosions pushing and

thinking outwards towards others and

how we can be of help to them.

On the other hand with the negative,

gravitational pull inwards, we acquire a negative mindset where

egotism, frustrations, fear, stress, discouragement, depression, and

eventually suicidal tendencies will gain the upper hand.

We become a black hole to those around us,

sucking in their energy with our negative

inward pull of gloomy self-absorption.

I quote: 'Black holes can also consume material

torn from nearby stars. In fact massive black

holes can swallow stars whole.' 3

This shows we need to be very careful

concerning the company that we keep, and not

allow ourselves to get sucked in to their negative pull.

This negative gravitational pull inside us strengthens itself

when we absorb negative vibrations, through horror movies,

depressive music, violent video games, etc.,

and allow them to become part of us.

It is very difficult to get out of that sucking,

negative vortex, unless you invoke my client's

help, who will assist those that genuinely

come to him and earnestly seek his help.

However we cannot blame our fears and

negativity on the violent video games, the

depressive music or the horror movies, as we

are personally responsible for what we watch, play and do.

Just like I cannot blame the TV for wasting my time with a useless, bad

programme, while I have the remote control with the on-off switch in

my hand.

I can waste my time, or turn it off and do something

positive, that is not the TV's decision, nor my client's

decision, but that decision is one hundred percent

mine.

My personal on-off switch is my freedom of choice.

That is my right!

and intelligent Mind. This Mind is the matrix 1 of all

matter.'

_me with a lame feeling._

__

_His simplistic explanation does not fit my framework of scientific thinking._

_I have had several meetings over the weekend with other university_

_£1,000,- for work of acknowledged distinction in the broad area of biology,_

_notably in evolution,1 population biology, organismal biology and biological_

_diversity._

_I present you with facts and that, for me, ladies and gentlemen, is_

_circumstantial evidence enough._

__

_Mr. Darwin's evolution has debunked the simplistic idea of creation which is_

_put forth in a naive storybook. Mr. Darwin studied the writings of Mr. D._

_Vine's storybook._

__

_He held a degree in theology as a young student, but, Your Honour and dear_

_jury, he got wiser, he grew up and started listening to his heart and started_

_seeking for hard evidence, instead of stuffing his mind with stories that_

_sound good, but have no intrinsic value._

__

_Therefore, Your Honour and members of the Jury, I want to petition you to_

_ban Mr. D. Vine's storybook, which goes under the pretext of the Greek word_

_'biblos' or in our language "Bible"._

_It should be prohibited from all educational institutions, as it brings_

_confusion to the minds of the younger students and the more vulnerable_

_among the populus._

_I have but one request, that you will follow your heart in this serious matter._

__

_I ask, that you will make a sound judgement not based on fairy tales_

_from the dark ages, but on scientific and biological research led by_

_enlightened minds of science based on facts that we hold dear to our hearts._

__

_This is all I have to say: Listen to your heart, see the facts of carbon-dating,_

_instead of religious Sunday school stories._

__

_Science and knowledge is the only way forward. I trust that you will make_

_the right decision and not be scared off by some religious deity, who will_

_punish you if you don't believe in his stories of which creation is the worst."_

There is silence.

―Are you finished, Professor?‖

_"Yes, Your Honour, there is nothing more that I can say."_

―Then the court calls on Mr. N. Voy to make his final defense for

creation.‖

**THE CREATION DEFENSE**

―Ladies and gentlemen of the Jury, I would like to reiterate

that we are not talking about rewards or banknotes.

If that would be the case I would

like to show the scientist

Michael Faraday, a staunch

believer in the creation process,

not on the ten-note but on the

twenty-note bill.

However, Your Honour, we are not politicians trying to outsmart the

other party with clever remarks. We are serious, responsible citizens

and parents of children, who are trying to establish our origins and the

truth concerning that, either by the process of evolution or creation.

Truth is truth.

183

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

This has to be the foundation of the education that we give our

children, otherwise we spin a web where lies are considered

truth and truth is considered lies.

We will create a generation of liars and cheats, because this is what

they have been taught in school.

Everything becomes meaningless and futile and we shall end in total

confusion, deteriorating in disorder and violence, because what is the

use if we are just pieces of living human waste, washed ashore among

the rubbish of humanity?

Your Honour, I would like to quote from Mein Kampf again. Hitler

was firm believer in evolution, the survival of the fittest and the

supremacy of the German race.

―It would never come into the heads of the broad

masses to fabricate colossal untruths, and they

would not believe that others could have the

impudence to distort the truth so infamously. . . .

They will still doubt and waver and will continue to

think that there may be some other explanation. For

the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind

it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is

known to all expert liars in this world. . . ‖

I request that, due to circumstantial evidence that was presented to the

court that the writings of my client, also known as **the Bible will be**

**declared as factual concerning our origins.**

****

In view with **the human right of religious freedom** , where everyone is

free to believe as one wishes, that **the "theory of evolution" be**

**officially declared a religion.**

I would also like to thank the Professor for his presentations.

Although I have only presented circumstantial evidence, I would like

to add a word of caution, seeing our individual verdict could

determine where each of us would personally spend eternity, in a

bubbling chemical soup with slimy sliddering creatures?

184

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

Or with a creator who is motivated by love, a soul-mate, who

has so much trust and faith in each of us that he left us with a

reasoning mind and the freedom of choice to make our personal

decisions concerning our personal future.‖

_The Professor pushes aside his security guard and shouts,_

_"I object, object, object! The witness is trying the scare tactics of his_

_client again. His last statement is_

_a load of rubbish as when our life_

_ends, it ends and is finished._

_To believe this insane, stupid_

_nonsense that there is life beyond_

_the grave is a scare tactic to_

_make us want to behave and_

_become some slimy, ever hopeful,_

_religious lunatic. I hate these # &@ %*^, stupid, @#$& idiots. _‖ __

Shouting from the balcony, ―Yeah, good for you Professor, I am so glad

that finally someone is telling the truth about these rotten idiots, I hate

this whole, f&*^%$#, stupid, idiotic, religious nonsense.‖

The cameras are zooming in to this man and to the Professor.

The Justice is pounding his gavel and raises his voice,

―SECURITY, PLEASE CLEAR THE PERSON THAT MADE THE

COMMENT ON THE BALCONY.

Professor, if you do not control your tongue, then Security, please

escort the Professor out.‖

_"I don't care, I have sat through this day's sessions and it is enough for_

_me. I am sick of the whole rotten stupidity of this court and the_

_witness of Mr. N. Voy. It is just too much for me."_

The Professor practically collapses in his chair and starts gasping for

breath. It seems that the stress and excitement is proving too much for

him.

185

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

He is breathing heavily and bending over while he clutches his heart in

obvious pain. The security guard is wiping the Professor's brow, to the

obvious irritation of the red faced Professor.

―Are you okay, Professor?‖ asks Mr. N. Voy, ―Is there

something we can do for you? Could we get you a glass of cold

water?‖

_The Professor screeches,_

_"You stay away from me! I need fresh air!"_

__

__

The Justice nods to the security guard next to the Professor to see if he

can take him out of the courtroom.

―I think it will be appropriate to call an ambulance.‖

Whilst this was going on floor of the courtroom, on the balcony, the

two security guards are having a tougher time, as the person has

handcuffed himself to the balcony railing-bar and keeps screaming

profanities.

The press is delighted with

these developments.

As the Justice is looking

around at a the commotion,

he announces with a slight

smile, while pounding his

gavel,

―We will take a 30-minute recess till 3:20.

In between time the court maintenance can cut the handcuff.

The doors of the courtroom will close again at 3:15.‖

__________

186

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

Thirty minutes later.

―Everyone, please, be seated.‖

The Justice is pounding his gavel and raises his voice,

―ORDER IN THE COURT!‖

―This is the exact reason why I preferred not to have the press in the

courtroom, because some people, by doing something outrageous, can

get their picture taken and even end up on the front page of a

newspaper.

I would soon like to bring this case to closure.

Was there anything else Mr. N. Voy that you wanted to say before you

got interrupted?‖

―Yes, Your Honour. I was going to present the court with a

report from Science Digest stating that:

‗Scientists who utterly reject evolution may be one of our fastest

growing controversial minorities . . Many of the scientists supporting

this position hold impressive credentials in science.'

I will give the list to the court recorder.‖

A more thorough list of current (and past) creationist scientists is not

provided for two reasons:

__ In the Beginning . . . . then What?

www.johanpeters.in

A complete list would be extremely lengthy, and some

scientists would rather not have their name made public due

to justified fear of **job discrimination** and persecution in today's

atmosphere of limited academic freedom in evolutionist-controlled

institutions.'

Concerning the list it says, ‗nor does it necessarily indicate anything

about their religious beliefs.'

Your Honour, but it does indicate that they have common sense, which

is not too common these days.

And the list keeps growing:

A 'powerful and divine vision of luminous beings' hit the 57-year-old

nuclear physicist during tests on the **large hadron collider** last month,

forcing him to reconsider his 'previous understanding of life and the

universe. . . All my preconceived notions of reality were permanently

destroyed. . . may God help us find the true meaning of life, be it

through prayer or science.' he concluded. 1

I quote Dr. Arthur E. Wilder-Smith FRSC 1

,

Ph.D., an honoured scientist with three earned

doctorates,

'The evolutionary model says that, ‗it is not necessary to

assume the existence of anything, besides matter and

energy, to produce life.' That proposition is unscientific.

**We know perfectly well that if you leave matter to**

**1915 - 1995**

**itself, it does not organize itself** – in spite of all the efforts in recent

years to prove that it does.

Your Honour, members of the Jury, if as **detectives** we want to find out

'Who did it?', then we look for fingerprints. My client left his

fingerprints all over the place.

We have two kinds of detectives those who see and those who do not

see. Those who see, find evidence galore.

Those who don't see, can't find a single fingerprint. Yet they produce

complicated theories that it just happened, in order to cover up their

incompetence that they cannot find out 'Who did it?'.

I quote Dr. Steven M. Holland, Professor geology at the university of

Georgia, 'We [scientists] wouldn't know truth if it jumped up and bit

us in the ass.' ****

Dr. Holland gives the exact reason why my client is no longer believed

because as he says, 'we scientists wouldn't know truth . . .'

**My client does not distort the truth, because he is truth.**

****

Upon accepting this, the pieces of the puzzle fall into place.

He stands accused of writing foolish, childish fables.

**Unless the accusers can produce one shred of solid, scientific**

**evidence, based not on theories but on facts, that what they say about**

**my client is true - until then the fact remains that they themselves**

**are, what they make my client out to be; the authors of foolish,**

**childish fables.**

Your honour, I came accross this caricature 2 which sums it all up!

―The members of the Jury will now withdraw for 30 minutes and

Doors will close at 4:15, so we will all be seated again by 4:20 to hear

their verdict and then I will give my ruling.‖

Cameras are clicking as the press rushes towards Mr. N. Voy sticking

several microphones in his face. A smart looking lady asks,

―Sir, the Professor said that you got your information from websites

that are insinuating that some conspiratory secret organization is

responsible for unexplained events.

What is your response to that?‖

―Dear madam, let this go on record that I have no interest in

websites that are insinuating that some conspiratory secret

organization is responsible for unexplained events. I have used the

same websites as the Professor and all the links are recorded in the

transcript of the case, so you are welcome to see for yourself.

If you would be so kind as to excuse me as nature is calling.‖

**THE JUDGMENT & RECOMMENDATION **

―All be seated. Members of the Jury, would you please pass me your

verdict?‖

The Lord Justice reads quietly . . . and then clears his throat,

―The Jury is divided and could not come to a unanimous verdict. In the

eventuality that this would happen, I had spoken beforehand with the

court recorder for a suitable solution.

Thus, as presiding Justice over this court, I advocate that those who

have been present at the case and have formed their opinion from all

the material presented by both parties, accept the responsibility to give

their personal judgment. This request also pertains to those who have

read this transcript of the case.

With the verdict still pending I urge you to pass your vote to the scribe

of this case, Mr. Peters.

He has a comment box available on his website at the bottom of the

homepage.

Please be so kind as to give your vote online at:

**www.johanpeters.in**

****

Myself, as Justice, along with the members of the Jury, and both the

witnesses are looking forward to your vote so this case can find

closure, which is of utmost importance.

As Justice presiding over this important case, I give the following

recommendation;

****

**Until the final judgment is given, I recommend that**

**the transcript of this court case, named,**

_**'In the Beginning . . . then What?'**_ ****

**becomes an unbiased student and teacher guide**

**in our educational intitutions, concerning subjects**

**relating to Evolution and Creation.**

**This is with the aim that our young minds can form**

**their personal opinions, after studying both sides.**

With this the official hearing of the case 'Evolution and Creation' is

now closed. Judgment is pending, ladies and gentlemen, according to

your vote.

Ladies and gentlemen, members of the Jury, defendants, scribe and

security staff, thank you very much.‖

_______________

With this the honourable Lord Justice leaves the courtroom and

withdraws to his office.

The press is clamouring and chasing Mr. N. Voy with questions and

microphones.

The same lady asks Mr. N. Voy,

―Sir, are you happy with the recommendation of the judge?‖

―Ma'am, I am happy that the judge made this unusual

recommendation, so that those attending and those reading

the transcript of this 'Evolution and Creation' case, will give their

personal verdict, concerning what each one feels is truth. This of course

also includes you, madam,‖

―Yes, it is concerning the members of the Jury. . . . ‖
