very limited and its analysis has been contentious. Hence, molecular biologists
have shifted their attention to molecular dating techniques. Recently on April
2013, the prestigious Cell Press Journal Current Biology published an article
(Fu et al. 2013) entitled “A Revised Timescale for Human Evolution Based on
Ancient Mitochondrial Genomes”. This paper has twenty authors and they are
researchers from the world’s top institutes like Max Planck Institute, Harvard,
etc. Respected authors of this paper have emphatically accepted that the fossil
record is inadequate and unreliable. These statements clearly substantiate that
now biologists are agreeing that fossil records do not provide any significant
evidence at all for conventional evolution theory. Despite the well-recorded
fact of the continual grand propaganda of Darwinism based on fossil evidence
for more than 150 years, in recent times biologists are surprisingly coming up
with such statements, based on their confidence that evolution can be explained
purely by the genealogical/genomic record provided by modern molecular biology.
Still many respected journals (for example the article in Nature, Retallack,
2013) continue to publish articles on fossil evidence to support Darwinian
evolution. These incoherently diverse claims prove that Darwinists are
struggling with unscientific ideological approaches to explain biodiversity.
Darwinian evolutionary theory is not only the basis of modern biology, but also
acts as the guiding principle of science and intellectual reasoning for modern
civilization. Hence, a scientific understanding of the breakdown of the
Darwinian theory of objective evolution is very important for overcoming the
traditional scientific temper of mechanistic intellectualism that characterizes
this ideology. In my article “21st Century Biology Refutes Darwinian Abiology”
(published in two parts in November and December 2012 issues of The Harmonizer:
www.mahaprabhu.net/satsanga/harmonizer) it was noted that several recent
findings challenge the credibility that random mutations and natural selection
can provide a valid basis for justifying the naturalistic evolution of species.
The present article summarizes the problems associated with the fossil record
and dating techniques, and its implication on the neo-Darwinian mechanistic
misconception of biological life as mere molecular chemistry or abiology. An
alternative approach based on the Vedāntic view for explaining biodiversity in
the light of 21st century biology is also discussed in the end of the article.
