Question Evolution Day 2025: Birds using Quantum Physics? |
 For this Question Evolution day article I want to revisit a topic I discussed briefly in my article "Earth's magnetic field: Testament to more than a young earth." In the article I discussed how earth's magnetic field, due to its rapid decay rate, is young. This demonstrates that the earth is much younger than the 4.5 billion years secularists claim it to to be, and that proves that both Darwinian evolution and the Big bang are false. I went on to discuss how the earth's magnetic field displays properties of intelligent design - namely that it is used by some of God's creature for navigation. It's that topic I return to for this Question Evolution article.
As the below X
posts (or Twitter tweets for those who still
call it that) indicate, according to
researchers who investigate how birds can
navigate (and some migrate hundreds or thousands of
miles), and are somehow able to find their
destination - which might be as precise as returning to
the same tree they left months earlier.
Such researchers indicate birds use
quantum physics for navigation. You read
that correctly - birds are using properties
of quantum theory - the theory of very small
particles which we only recently
(relative to how long birds have been
around) learned about to navigate. Take a look: This raises a number of uncomfortable questions for those believing in Neo-evolution. (Neo-evolution being Darwinian evolution with undirected mutations added as the driving force behind variation). Here are some of those questions: Given that Neo-evolution is driven by undirected mutations and natural selection; there is no design, no engineering allowed, how can it be that: 1. As I point out in my article on the Creation Information Barrier, Information Theory defines scientific laws concerning information that state:
Given these
laws and the premise that Quantum Theory and
its properties,
being information, is a non-material entity,
this brings up obvious questions: b) How could evolution even gain access to the information in quantum theory, e.g. the effect on electrons based on quantum theory and the magnetic field? 2. Why are the processes happening in a bird's brain that involve quantum processes interpreted as something meaningful, specifically that it has something to do with navigation? This applies also to the alignment of microscopic crystals of magnetite, natural iron in the bird's beak that physically align with the earth's magnetic field, which acts like a biological compass. Why should it be understood by the bird to have anything to do with navigation or direction? 3. Even if these processes are somehow made to work, it still says nothing about how birds manage to navigate from point A to point B. Such direction sensitive senses can only tell them when they're off course. Which suggests the question: How do the birds know what the course is, having never seen it or learned it? The fact that they can use these senses to navigate gives a strong indication that they have somehow have an internal course, an internal map that they're using to navigate. Where did such information come from? 4. As noted at the start of the second video - the bird's brain is small - tiny. How can the ability to "sense direction" as the videos put it, as well as the necessary internal maps needed to use that directional information be packed so efficiently in the bird's tiny brain? Remember, in addition to the fact that material processes cannot manipulate non-material information, there is no designer or engineer to efficiently store or compress the information, or create the processes needed to use the information. How does the bird's tiny brain store it all? These are your questions for Question Evolution day 2025. Please leave a comment if you figure any of them out.
