The Principle of Syntropy
One of the descriptions of syntropy is a tendency towards order and symmetrical combinations, designs of ever more advantageous and orderly models. Now, if for the sake of argument we accept that there was/is evolution, in that case in the evolutionary process all bodily parts, beginning from the function of the RNA, DNA etc. everything had to develop harmoniously without errors. That means even few errors out of millions of right ones would so weaken the creature that it or its offspring would soon die off. Albert Szent-Gyorgyi a winner of two Nobel Prizes for scientific research, who is now a Director of Research at the Institute for Muscle Research in Massachusetts, wrote:
- "Most biological reactions are chain reactions. To interact in a chain, these precisely built molecules must fit together most precisely, as the cog wheels of a Swiss watch do. But if this is so, then how can such a system develop at all? For if any one of the specific cog wheels in these chains is changed, then the whole system must simply become inoperative. Saying it can be improved by random mutation of one link ... is like saying you could improve a Swiss watch by dropping it and thus bending one of its wheels or axes. To get a better watch, all the wheels must be changed simultaneously to make a good fit again." (Drive in Living Matter to Perfect Itself "Synthesis I," Vol. 1, No. 1, p. 18 (1977).
This description explains one of the important biological principles. It excludes the possibility of evolution arising by the random effects of natural selection or the chance results of mutations. That means, unless all organs are perfect and complete which enable the living entity to live, eat, survive, and reproduce the whole biological system of the body cannot function properly and without proper functioning the entire organism or its offspring will tend to die out. There are millions of DNA codes within the cells of the living entities which all must be in perfect order, harmony and sequence to enable one to properly function and live. This coding requirement is called syntropy which doesn’t allow evolution to occur. But then what about natural selection and the survival of the fittest? That works nicely but only within the species. A recognized evolutionist Lewontin at 1978 in his essay ‘Adaptation’ published in the journal ‘‘Scientific American’’ admits:
- ”Natural selection operates essentially to enable the organisms to maintain their state of adaptation rather than to improve it.” “Natural selection over the long run does not seem to improve a species’ chances of survival, but simply enables it to track, or keep up with, the constantly changing environment.”
Actually, natural selection refers only to selection of already existing characteristics in the genes. For example, how could something be selected if it doesn’t exist? Thus we can say that natural selection works only within the principle of syntropy.
- "In postulating his theory of syntropy, Szent-Gyorgyi, perhaps unintentionally, brings forth one of the strongest arguments for Creationism—the fact that a body organ is useless until it is completely perfected. The hypothesized law of “survival of the fittest” would generally select against any mutations until a large number of mutations have already occurred to produce a complete and functional structure; after which natural selection would then theoretically select for the organism with the completed organ."
