This is the sad reality for way too many after having one of these vaccines.
| ELEPHANTS LOSE TUSKS “BY EVOLUTION” claim media reports. During the civil war in Mozambique (1977-1992) ivory poachers killed elephants and sold the tusks to finance their war. During this time the population of elephants declined drastically. The elephant population is now making a comeback, but with a change – more female elephants are lacking tusks. Before the war about 18.5% of females were tuskless, but 33% of females born since the war do not have tusks. A group of scientists led by Shane Campbell-Staton and Robert Pringle of Princeton University studied the elephant population of Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique, using records from an elephant conservation organisation and videos taken in the park from before the war. They found tuskless mother elephants had equal numbers of daughters with and without tusks, and had twice as many daughters as sons. They then analysed genomes of the elephants in the park and found the tuskless females carried mutations in two genes named MEP1a and AMELX. The AMELX gene is on the X chromosome, and mutations of it in humans are known to cause defective tooth growth in females and are lethal to males. This pattern of inheritance, known as X-linked dominant, male-lethal, would explain the skewed sex ratio of the tuskless mother’s offspring and the number of tuskless daughters. Putting these genetic and population studies together, the research team, along with all the reports in the news sources, claim the increase in tuskless females is a case of rapid evolution. The research team entitled their research paper “Ivory poaching and the rapid evolution of tusklessness in African elephants”. They summarised their findings as: “This study provides evidence for rapid, poaching-mediated selection for the loss of a prominent anatomical trait in a keystone species”. References and Links: Science (AAAS) News 21 October 2021, Nature News 21 October 2021, ABC News 22 October 2021, and Science 22 October 2021, doi: 10.1126/science.abe7389.ED. COM. The summary is correct, but the headlines are all wrong. This is a classic case of selection, but nothing has evolved. Poachers selectively killed elephants with tusks which allowed the already existing tuskless elephants with the tuskless gene to survive, and increase in numbers. But that did not make them evolve. This is unnatural selection at work, but it is no different from legitimate farmers using selective breeding to increase the number of animals that have a desirable trait, such as hornlessness, in farm animals. However, in this case, the increased trait is a defect, since tusks help elephants to push over branches and trees and dig holes as they forage for food and minerals, so loss of them is a negative. Overall, this study is a good reminder that the world has changed, but it has not evolved. It has gone from good to bad to worse – the opposite of evolution, but exactly what the Bible tells us. |

Dr. Jimmy DeYoung unpacks Isaiah 38 http://xtremeprophecy.com/XtremeProphecy/HOME.html
Isaiah 55:8-9
“‘For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways,’ says the Lord. ‘For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.’”
‘Our Creator’s work reflects some of His incredible inventive creativity. In Matthew 6:30 Jesus reminds us how God provides for all the needs of all His creatures. Each creature is perfectly suited for its life, even if that requires special creativity from God.
Many of the creatures that live in the deepest and darkest parts of the sea are equipped with lights. One has a very bright headlamp to light its way. Others have lights on their tails, jaws or sides. The light they produce, as the light produced by the firefly, is a cold light. The light is generated when chemicals manufactured by the creatures are mixed together.
Or consider the small bird that has an “engine” powerful enough to allow it to fly for 10,000 or more miles. The construction of the bird’s heart differs from yours and mine in important ways. However, we couldn’t get by with the bird’s heart just as it couldn’t get by with ours.
While it seems strange to think of the penguin as a bird that flies under water, that’s exactly what it does. The penguin can reach speeds of 30 miles per hour underwater, as fast as the fastest marine mammal, the dolphin.
All of us would benefit from looking at the creatures around us a little more closely. If we do, we will learn a little more about the magnificent creativity of our God. As we learn about their lives and how they are provided for, we will, as one early scientist put it, learn to think God’s thoughts about the natural world after Him!’https://creationmoments.com/sermons/thinking-gods-thoughts-after-him-2/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=thinking-gods-thoughts-after-him-2&mc_cid=e895113b6c&mc_eid=00c1dcff3c

Isn’t it sad and scary when a squealy dirty filthy gutter talking teen has the ears of political world leaders!?
The New South Wales government keeps moving the goal posts for the unclean non-vaccinated citizens. Now, ‘Unvaccinated New South Wales residents will have to wait up to another two weeks before they can enjoy the same freedoms as the vaccinated after the government pushed back the reopening date for those who are unprotected from the highly infectious virus.
People who have not received a dose of the coronavirus vaccine will need to wait till December 15, two weeks later than the initial December 1 plan, or when the state reaches 95 per cent fully vaccinated, to enjoy the same freedoms.
“We have always wanted to open up in a measured way and we have seen an extraordinary effort from people across our state and ultimately from the outset,” NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet told the press conference on Tuesday morning.
“We have said, we put a roadmap in place, we wanted to stick to that roadmap as much as we could but ultimately, in circumstances where people have made an extraordinary effort across our state we have been able to move some of those changes forward.”
He said he hoped to “incentivise” the unvaccinated population to roll their sleeves up by moving the date back a further two weeks or until 95 per cent are double dosed.
Mr Perrottet said the decision to bring forward a further easing of restrictions, three weeks earlier to Monday November 8, for millions of inoculated residents was to “look after people right across the state” but added it was being done “cautiously”.
Revellers will be able to hit night clubs again with dance floors reopening.
The one per person per four square metres will be reduced to one person per two square metres in most settings, including hospitality, and capacity limits will be lifted across all settings except gym classes, which will remain at 20 per class.
Major recreation and stadiums will be able to operate under 100 per cent fixed-seat capacity.
People with medical exemptions and children under the age of 16 will also be able to participate in the early easing of restrictions.
Across the state, 93.6 per cent of the eligible population have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and 87.8 per cent are fully vaccinated.
Chief Health Officer Doctor Kerry Chant urged fully vaccinated residents to come forward for their booster shot if their second jab was administered six months ago.
“Please go get your booster dose if you have had your vaccine over six months ago. It is critical that you present as quickly as possible to get that booster,” she said.
“We know that the evidence is very strong that there is some degree of waning immunity and having that vaccine at six months will really enable you to have the greatest protection and that is critical as we anticipate that COVID case numbers will increase in coming weeks, months.”
However she warned people who are living with underlying health conditions to check with their doctor to determine whether they need a third dose.
Four people in NSW died with coronavirus including four men – two in their 50s, one in his 60s and one in their 70s.
Three had received one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and one was fully vaccinated.’https://www.skynews.com.au/australia-news/coronavirus/watch-live-nsw-premier-makes-new-covid19-roadmap-announcement/news-story/b3bccfa6494bd96529bd32cd27c55aa6?utm_source=SkyNews&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Editorial&utm_content=SN_DAILY_PM_01&net_sub_id=282058248&type=curated&position=1&overallPos=1
