                   Admissions by an Evolutionist Scientist


                  We have so far examined certain errors and mistakes in
               Kettlewell's experiments, to which Darwinists have pinned
               so many of their hopes: According to intensive research in

               Britain and America, the distribution of melanic moths in
               clean and polluted regions is very different from what's ex-
               pected. Contrary to expectations, there is no correlation be-
               tween lichens and melanism. B. betularia moths do not rest
               on tree trunks. Another element that invalidates the experi-
               ment is the ignoring the fact that these animals are noctur-
               nal.
                  These and other errors have been brought out by vari-
               ous researchers in scientific books and papers in recent

               years. Michael Majerus' book,  Melanism: Evolution in
               Action, published in 1998, is one of these. Professor Jerry
               Coyne, of Chicago University's Department of Ecology and
               Evolution, introduced the book in question in an article
               published in Nature magazine on 5 November, 1998, and
               stressed its importance:

                  From time to time, evolutionists re-examine a classic ex-
                  perimental study and find, to their horror, that it is flawed
                  or downright wrong ... Until now, however, the prize horse
                  in our stable of examples has been the evolution of "indus-
