Creation Moment 8/15/2017 - Bird Flight Genes

Pay close attention to the story below...micro-evolution (genetic variation within a kind) is what one sees in the genes of birds as it relates to ability of flight. In other words, it's pre-programed info, sometimes shut off. So that makes macro-evolution (what people generally mean when they say evolution in the public arena) very unlikely.
Darwin saw in the finches micro-evolution and extrapolated macro-evolutionary theory. BUT the science of genetics shows the variation within birds leaves them birds. The variation results from genetic switches, on or off....
...and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Genesis 1:21
"Charles Darwin used his theory to explain flightless birds, like the pitiful flightless cormorant on the Galapagos Islands, but loss of function cannot be encouraging to evolutionists. No corporation wants
to show all expenses and no income. Phys.org quips, “Discovery of why emus are grounded takes flight.” Funny, but sad.
Some flightless birds are successful in their niche despite being grounded. Researchers at Monash University, the article says, compared emu genes to chicken genes. They found one gene that “is turned on during the development of wings in emu embryos, but not in chickens or other birds, leading to greatly reduced wings.” The study “may have application to humans born with limb abnormalities.” Darwin is not smiling."
