200                THE MIRACLE OF ELECTRICITY IN THE BODY





                   One authority to express this openly is Colin Patterson, chief pale-
              ontologist at London’s Natural History Museum. He has frequently
              made it clear that Darwinism is supported for philosophical reasons. In
              an interview, Patterson said that the series that people are so fond of
              portraying as having existed are actually nowhere to be found in the fos-
              sil record. He went on to say:

                   If you ask, “What is the evidence for continuity?” you would have to say,
                   there isn’t any in the fossils of animals and man. 102

                   The inconsistencies in the fictitious family tree also appear in the
              mechanism suggested for the alleged evolution of the brain, with its
              complex structure and vital functions. Maintaining that so complex an
              organ could develop through a blind mechanism such as random muta-
              tions is meaningless. Radiation and mutation expert James F. Crow de-
              scribes the position:
                                      A random change in the highly integrated system
                                           of chemical processes which constitute life is
                                             certain to impair—just as a random inter-
                                              change of connections [wires] in a televi-
                                              sion set is not likely to improve the pic-
                                              ture.   103
                                                  The human brain has a far more
                                               complex design than that in the most
                                               advanced modern technology.
                                               World-famous computer companies
                                              hold seminars for their engineers
                                               about the organization inside the
                                                brain, and encourage them to draw
                                                    inspiration from the brain for
                                                       their new designs.
