stinct" to define some innate behaviors of animals.
Questions as to how this instinct is gained, how it emerged,
and how it is inherited from one generation to another, how-
ever, remain unanswered. The evolutionary geneticist
Gordon R. Taylor, explains this dilemma in his book, The
Great Evolution Mystery, as follows:
If in fact behaviour is heritable, what are the units of be-
haviour which are passed on—for presumably there are
units? No one has suggested an answer. (London:
Sphere Books, 1984, p. 222)

79. How do the evolutionists define

"instinct"?
The evolutionists define instinct as any behavior en-
coded in a living being’s genes. For example, migratory ani-
mals find the direction for their journey, even if it is the first
time that they have undertaken it, by using their instinct.
This same instinct enables birds, freshwater eels, or turtles
to complete their journey of thousands of kilometers. In
other words, all of the necessary information is encoded in
their genes.
However, who is responsible for this encoding? Given
that every encoding has an encoder, who is the encoder of
the instincts of living beings?
The evolutionists’ answer to such questions is nothing
more than a mere delusion. They claim that all living organ-
isms on Earth gained their existing features because of
"Mother Nature." But of what is "Mother Nature" composed:
stones, soil, grass, trees, flowers, and so on. Can a tree teach
