Creation Moment 9/20/2024 - 4 Problems of the human evolutionary model

So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them. 
Genesis 1:27

"The
human evolutionary model has many fundamental problems.
For example, there is strong evidence that human populations cannot survive in deep time due the relentless accumulation of slightly deleterious mutations (Sanford 2014). 
Many of the mutations that account for the millions of rare alleles in the human population should be very slightly deleterious. This should result in continuous genetic degeneration and eventual extinction

A second profound problem with the human evolutionary model is the fact that there is simply no credible way that mutation/selection can create the vast amount of new information that would be required to change an ape population into a human population. 
The enormous difficulty of creating the biological information that makes life, and makes us human, has been demonstrated on many levels (Marks et al. 2013). 
The counter-claim has been that the famous nylonase gene is proof that it is easy to create new functional biological information. However, the spontaneous nylonase claim has recently been falsified (Cordova and Sanford 2017). 

The human evolution model has a third glaring problem called “the waiting time problem”. It turns out that it would take at least 84 million years to create and fix a nucleotide string consisting of only two letters in a human-like ancestral population (Sanford et al. 2015). Yet human evolution requires a vast number of specific nucleotide strings that are much longer than two letters long. 

A fourth serious problem associated with the human evolutionary model involves the fact that the bones that are popularly claimed to be “transitional fossils” are actually highly contested within the field of paleoanthropology (Rupe and Sanford 2017)."
