The Biological Models of Evolution…And The One That’s Missing?

The Biological Models of Evolution…And The One That’s Missing?

Evolutionary ideas have come and gone throughout the ages. It is nothing new. Among the first evolutionists were some Greeks called Epicureans named for their founder Epicurus (also spelt Epikourus). It’s the same Epicureans that Paul argued against in Acts 17. 

Marble bust of Epicurus from the 2nd Century AD; Metropolitan Museum of Artbeing that the bust was long after his life, the representation is likely not accurate to what Epicurus really looked like. 

That old evolutionary form is called Epicureanism and is one the many pagan Greek mythologies. Epicureanism was unique among them in that it does not have a multitude of “gods” associated with it—it has no “gods” at all.

Modern evolutionary models have gone through several major stages as secular thinkers (those who largely hold to evolutionary origins) have attempted to explain the diversity of life apart from the God of the Bible. So far, four major models have emerged (and there are variations within some of these models too).

The Four Types of Biological Evolution Models

The four key evolutionary models in more recent times are:

1.     Lamarckian Evolution

2.     Traditional Darwinism

3.     Neo-Darwinism

4.     Punctuated Equilibrium

All forms of biological evolution—no matter how they are framed—fail both scientifically and biblically.

Failing biblically is obvious—the evolutionary views simply doesn’t mesh with Genesis even with crazy mental gymnastics of reinterpretations that some try to assert. For instance, Adam was made from dust, not a previous animal ancestor.

Thus, the evolutionary view is false. Nevertheless, let’s evaluate these models and why they fall short in more detail.

Lamarckian Evolution

Lamarckian evolution, proposed by Jean-Baptiste Lamarck (1744–1829), is one of the earliest reinvented formal models of evolution in modern times. It was also espoused by Charles Darwin’s grandfather Erasmus Darwin (1731-1802) in his book Zoonomia.

Lamarck suggested that organisms can acquire new traits during their lifetimes through use or disuse of certain organs and then pass those acquired traits on to their offspring. In other words, if they used their body part, they would keep it or it would evolve to an even better appendage but if the organism didn’t use it, it would evolve away.  

A classic example is the giraffe, whose ancestors supposedly stretched their necks to reach higher leaves, thus it “evolved” to gradually producing longer-necked descendants over many generations. Of course, this was not observed.

However, another observable example presented itself. Farmers would cut off the tail of a sheep to keep it from getting messy. After years and years of generations and generations of disuse of the tail because it was cut off, the prediction of the model is that it would evolve away. But this didn’t happen. Sheep in the next generation still grew tails just like their ancestors. So, the model was failing

This Lamarckian idea has been thoroughly rejected by modern geneticists. Scientific discoveries since the time of Gregor Mendel, the father of genetics, have shown that acquired traits do not alter the genetic code and therefore cannot be passed down to offspring.

For instance, a man who develops large muscles from exercise does not have children born with larger muscles as a direct result of his training. So, Lamarck’s ideas failed because the mechanism didn’t work. Even from a scientific perspective, it was over.

Traditional Darwinism (Classical Darwinism)

After Lamarck’s ideas circulated and were failing, Charles Darwin, no doubt influenced by his grandfather, offered a new mechanism for evolution. Prior to Darwin, Ed Blyth, an astute scientific observer and a creationist, had been publishing on variations within kinds of creatures. He was noting how animals could be observed to survive better in some environments compared to others and the result was due to minor variations (e.g., think of longer hair or shorter hair for the environment you are in).

Dogs with short hair thrive in warmer climates, not the cold ones where they will die off or leave; Image requested by Bodie Hodge (Chat GPT)

Blyth looked at these changes from a biblical viewpoint and interpreted them as a conservative process. Darwin read Blyth’s papers and thought that these minor changes within a kind—if given enough time—could cause evolutionary or macro changes from one kind to another over long ages. In short Darwin thought this could be a generative process—to generate new uniquely evolved traits

Alfred Russell Wallace was also competing with Darwin on these same ideas. Darwin bested Wallace, and so most people know Darwin’s name. But with this new mechanism of Blyth, called natural selection by Darwin, a new evolutionary model emerged. Darwin was still influenced by Lamarckian evolution from time to time. Even so, he was initially dead set on:

Natural selection + Millions of years = Evolution.

Traditional Darwinism stems from Charles Darwin’s new suggested understanding of natural selection, published in On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection For the Preservation of Favored Races (1859) and subsequently his second book (The Descent of Man, and Selection in Relation to Sex).

Darwin proposed that small, gradual changes accumulate over immense periods of time as favorable variations are “selected” because they help organisms survive and reproduce. Over millions of years, these small changes supposedly produce entirely new species and life forms.

Of course, this has never been observed over long ages. By the end of Darwin’s life and in his sixth and final edition of Origins, he edited it in such a way that he had backed off from being so adamant about natural selection being the mechanism. And he even gave hints that one should be looking for another mechanism.[1]

Darwin’s model relied on mechanisms that were unverified and often incorrect:

  • Darwin believed in a system of internal particles called pangenesis or “gemmules” that passed traits from parents to offspring, but this was disproven by later genetic research
  • He assumed that gradual change would be visible in the fossil record, with countless transitional forms showing the steps between one kind of creature and another. Instead, the fossil record overwhelmingly shows stability (stasis) and sudden appearance of fully formed organisms.
  • Natural selection didn’t lead to any new, complex and usable genetic information but rather was a losing process, where it filtered out already existing information.
  • Natural selection simply eliminates unfit individuals, preserving existing capabilities rather than inventing new structures. It acts like a quality control mechanism, not a creative force.

Darwin himself admitted this was a major problem for his view, writing, “The abrupt manner in which whole groups of species suddenly appear in certain formations, has been urged as a fatal objection to the belief in the transmutation of species”.[2]

In simple terms, the fossil rock layers were supposed to have billions and billions of obvious transitional forms. But they didn’t. This problem still persists today. And is actually a devasting problem with the next two models as well.

Neo-Darwinism (aka, The Modern Synthesis)

By the early 20th century, Darwin’s original view was no longer sufficient. Scientists began combining natural selection with the new science of genetics, especially the understanding of mutations, to form what is now called Neo-Darwinism or the Modern Synthesis. This was led by Hugo DeVries, the father of Neo-Darwinism.

Hugo DeVries early 1900s

In this model, random mutations supposedly produce new traits, and natural selection works to preserves beneficial mutations while eliminating harmful ones. Over time, this process supposedly creates new structures and ultimately new kinds of organisms. Neo-Darwinism is therefore:

Mutations + Natural selection + Millions of years = Evolution.

Again, this has never been observed over long ages. Furthermore, mutations are almost always bad—often nearly neutral, but not what is hoped for. Cancer is a mutation—if yet to see an instance where cancer led to an onward and upward evolution change with new usable traits that gets passed to the next generation of humanity.

While Neo-Darwinism remains the dominant form of evolutionary belief today, there are several fatal flaws:

  1. Mutations do not create new, complex and usable, information. Observed mutations generally degrade or shuffle existing genetic information (nearly neutral), rather than create the complex, organized information needed to build new biological systems.
  2. There is a lack of transitional fossil or genetic evidence. Even with genetic knowledge, there remains no evidence for large-scale evolutionary transitions between basic types of organisms. Instead, variation is limited to changes within a created kind, which was predicted by the biblical model (Genesis 1).

Like Traditional Darwinism, the fossil rock layers were supposed to have billions and billions of obvious transitional forms. But they didn’t.

Also, because Neo-Darwinism cannot explain the origin of new genetic information, it fails to provide a plausible mechanism for “molecules-to-man” evolution.

Punctuated Equilibrium

In the 1970s, paleontologists Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge introduced Punctuated Equilibrium as an alternative model. This model was developed specifically to address the gaps in the fossil record.

Otherwise, it is still the same as Neo-Darwinism but in this case it adds small bursts of unobserved rapid evolutionary changes that we don’t see. In one variation, called Hopeful Monster, the evolutionary changes are extremely large in one generation. This model is essentially:

Mutations + Natural selection + (short unobserved bursts) over Millions of years = Evolution.

Nevertheless, the model has organisms remain in long periods of stasis with little change, followed by brief, rapid bursts of evolutionary activity, often in small, isolated populations.

This suggestion is an attempt to try to get past the problem of why transitional fossils are rare and non-existent—the appeal is to suggest that the creatures existed for too short a time while they were evolving quickly to be widely preserved.

The problems with this is that the evolution is no longer supposed to be observed in the fossil layers, but in the imaginary space between the layers, where nothing is fossilized. In other words, it is clever way of saying the model doesn’t have evidence.

While Punctuated Equilibrium believers acknowledges the problematic fossil record, it does not solve the fundamental issues:

  • Adherents admits that gradual transitions are missing, but simply reinterprets the absence as evidence of rapid, unobservable events in between rock layers.
  • Even rapid evolutionary bursts would still require the sudden appearance of massive amounts of new genetic information, which mutations and natural selection cannot provide.

Thus, this model merely shifts the problem without offering a realistic scientific mechanism.

What Vital Model Is Missing?

An evolutionary model that works.

Did you catch that? I’ll repeat it. An evolutionary model that works. There still isn’t one, from a genetics standpoint, geological standpoint, or observational standpoint. The astute evolutionists know there is still not a mechanism for evolution and they still need one if they want biological evolution to be viable.

But as of now, there is still the problem of a missing evolutionary model that works.

The Biblical Model

The failure of all evolutionary models is telling. And yet, the model of variation within created kinds explains things genetically, geologically, and observationally. According to Genesis, God created all living creatures “according to their kinds” (Genesis 1:11–12, 21, 24–25).

These kinds were created with built-in genetic diversity, allowing for variation within each kind (e.g., different breeds and species of dogs but one dog kind) but not transformation into a completely different kind (e.g., dogs to elephants).

This view explains the evidence:

  • The fossil record shows sudden appearance of fully formed organisms.
  • Genetic studies confirm that mutations degrade rather than invent new information.
  • Observed variations explains conservational survival in specific environments better, not the origin of such traits.

By contrast, each evolutionary model—Lamarckian, Traditional Darwinism, Neo-Darwinism, and Punctuated Equilibrium—fails to explain the complexity and design of life.

Conclusion

The history of evolution, regarding it's biological models, has a pattern of changing views without solving the core problems. Lamarckian evolution failed due to genetic and observational discoveries. Darwin’s gradualism faltered in part because of fossil evidence and cannot explain the origin of new, complex, usable information.

Neo-Darwinism attempts to rescue evolution through genetic mutations but still cannot explain the origin of new, complex, usable information. Punctuated Equilibrium acknowledges the gaps but only shifts the explanation to unobservable high speed evolutionary events and still can’t explain the fossils or biological origin of complex information.

All four models fail both scientifically and biblically—unlike the biblical model. The evolutionary viewpoint still requires a model that has a scientifically verifiable mechanism—at this point, it is still missing.

The Final Proof of God’s Nonexistence?

Feedback: The Final Proof of God’s Nonexistence? 

Bodie Hodge, M.Sc., B.Sc., PEI

Biblical Authority Ministries, September 4, 2025 (Donate) 

Original Letter Unedited: 

I just watched an episode of Answers News on YouTube. It showed up in my recommended videos presumably because I follow Bill Nye and watched the debate with Ken Ham. Anyway, it was clear in the episode that you believe in God. But I just don't understand how that is possible. There is SO much evidence that effectively makes the God and creation story an impossibility. SO much evidence that evolution is just as solid a fact as gravity. It's the evidence that I'm hung up on, because if you educate yourself on the natural history of life on this planet it is simply impossible to come away still believing an old book written by people who thought the earth was flat is true. It. Is. Simply. Not. True. The evidence is everywhere. As soon as we are able to recreate how non life became life on this planet it's over. Since we have already proven evolution as fact and occurring to this day, the only missing link is the non life to life transition. When that day comes we will officially be able to show that life as we know it on this planet was able to arise without the need of a God that created it. Do you at all agree with what I'm saying? Curious if you do or not. Sorry to take your time. 

Response, Point-By-Point Style: 

It is nice to hear from you. In my response, I’m going to be bold and challenge you in the interspersed responses below. But in all of this, I want you to understand that I’m saying these things in kindness. 


I just watched an episode of Answers News on YouTube. It showed up in my recommended videos presumably because I follow Bill Nye and watched the debate with Ken Ham. Anyway, it was clear in the episode that you believe in God. But I just don't understand how that is possible. 

I do. But not just any God. I believe in the God of the Bible—the true God. And according to the all-knowing God of the Bible so do you; but God also points out that there are some people who unrighteously try to suppress that knowledge (Romans 1:18-32). 

There is SO much evidence that effectively makes the God and creation story an impossibility. 

Such as? Creation is what happened in history, and God, who created all things, was there to eyewitness it and affirmed it in His Word. This modern story of evolution is a false, make-believe tale for the religion of naturalism (think atheism, materialism) to try to explain how all things came about from nothing. 

SO much evidence that evolution is just as solid a fact as gravity. 

What evidence are you referring to again? I can observe and repeat experiments regarding gravity (i.e., dropping things) but no one has observed or repeated the changing of single-celled organism like unicellular algae and turned it into anything else. This is a false analogy fallacy.  

It's the evidence that I'm hung up on, 

Once again you mention evidence and have presented none. One must realize a simple reality: I have the same evidence you do. I look at the same rock layers. I look at the same fossils, continents, solar bodies, cells, DNA, etc. The difference is the interpretation.

because if you educate yourself on the natural history of life on this planet 

And what makes you think I haven’t been educated on this subject? This is a presumption fallacy. I have been taught the naturalistic religious story since a small child in state schools through my educational years at the state university. 

I’ve been through several books on the subjects as well (including Charles Lyell, the father of naturalistic geology, and Charles Darwin, the father of modern naturalistic evolutionary biology, and the late Stephen Hawking among many others). 

Do you think Bill Nye was not educated well enough in the natural history of life on this planet? I have the same degree as Bill Nye but one level higher. I’ve even written an entire book refuting the claims of Nye’s naturalism. You need to understand that the natural history of life is part of the fictional story associated with the religion of naturalism.    

it is simply impossible to come away still believing an old book written by people 

And yet, you just professed a belief in natural history which comes from old books written by people? That is double standard fallacy. The Bible, unlike these works of fallible men that you adhere to without question, was written by the inspiration of God, the Holy Spirit. God doesn’t err like imperfect men.  

who thought the earth was flat is true

The Bible nor Bible writers propound a belief in a flat earth. This is straw man fallacy.  

It. Is. Simply. Not. True. 

God disagrees with you regarding the truthfulness of the Bible. God repeatedly affirms the Bible is true, and God, being the truth, is why truth exists in the first place. Truth is a Christian concept. In naturalism, truth shouldn’t exist since truth is not material. 

Subsequently, your objection to the truth of God’s Word is simply because you say so. That is arbitrary. But this outlines the classic argument between Christianity and the religion of humanism (i.e., man is seen as the ultimate authority)—God’s authority vs. man’s authority. [For the readers, naturalism is one form of humanism that says nature is all that exists. In other words, only material things like matter and energy (i.e., no spiritual no God(s), nothing immaterial exists) are all that is in existence.] 

The evidence is everywhere. 

Once again, you appeal to evidence, but don’t mention any evidence to present your case. And to reiterate, I have the same evidence that you do.    

As soon as we are able to recreate how non life became life on this planet it's over. 

So the one piece of evidence you appeal to (trying to refute the scientific Law of Biogenesis), is actually evidence that the naturalistic worldview is false. See below. 

Since we have already proven evolution as fact 

How so? Who was able to change a single-celled organism like an ameba into a goat? We’ve not observed this nor repeated this. Clearly, this is not a scientific fact. 

With all seriousness, I realize you believe in the religion of evolutionism and naturalism (which go hand-in-hand) without question in all likelihood because you’ve been told to believe it over and over again. Repeatedly, you profess to say there is evidence for it—because you have been told there is. 

Consider just one facet of naturalism: millions of years. We have no observational or repeatable scientific evidence of millions of years. And yet, many processes that people profess takes millions of years do not.  Without evidence of millions of years, evolution has no possibility (we don’t hear people say that all life on earth evolved from a single-celled organism beginning about 6,000 years ago).

and occurring to this day, 

What we observe today are small changes that only produce variations in existing animals within created kinds—exactly as the Bible predicts. We aren’t observing evolutionary changes (onward and upward) but degenerative changes (mutations and filtering of already existing information) to the genome 

the only missing link is the non life to life transition.  When that day comes we will officially be able to show that life as we know it on this planet was able to arise without the need of a God that created it. 

Besides the Law of Biogenesis, as mentioned above, perhaps you don’t have a good grasp on the problems in an evolutionary worldview—and I want to encourage you in this. Consider the missing observations of onward and upward evolution, information-gaining mutations, missing links, missing rock layers[29], 2nd law of thermodynamics, Horizon problem, etc. 

Image from Presentation Library

And do you realize the argument you just made? You are arguing that we have many brilliant minds trying to make life because we don’t observe life come from non-life naturalistically (spontaneous generation). So you openly appeal to the requirement of an intelligence to make life. I’m here to tell you the name of that intelligent Creator: Jesus Christ. Jesus died, was buried, and rose again on the third day (Acts 10:40)—the infinite Son took the infinite punishment from the infinite Father that we deserve for sin—and that makes salvation possible from this sin-cursed and broken world. 

Furthermore, if someone shows that life could be made by man, it wouldn’t prove that God did not create things in the beginning. If people succeed in mimicking what God did to create life—with the building blocks he created no less—that only proves that intelligence is a prerequisite to life, not naturalism (a great confirmation of what God did at creation). 

Do you at all agree with what I'm saying? Curious if you do or not. Sorry to take your time. 

Obviously not. I simply do not take people’s word for it when they say God doesn’t exist and evolution is true. And neither should you. Rather, I take God’s Word for the truth of his existence and creation.   

Since you really struggle with the existence of God and had watched a debate, I suggest you consider listening to a debate (back from the “old days”) between Dr. Gordon Stein (professing atheist) and Dr. Greg Bahnsen (a Christian). This became known at The Great Debate and is one of the most influential debates in the 20th century. 

Dr. Stein was arguably one of the brightest atheists of his day and knew about the classical arguments for a “generic” God’s existence and how to argue against them. When Christians used these arguments, he was very effective at destroying them. But his debate with Dr. Greg Bahnsen stopped him in his tracks (echoed here). To his dying day, Dr. Stein could not effectively respond to Dr. Bahnsen (they actually wrote letters back and forth after the debate). It is worth a listen. 

Image modified from Presentation Library

In conclusion, you may be thinking deep down that God is wrong about you believing he really does exist and that you are suppressing that knowledge, as mentioned above. But consider the letters you’ve written to people who discuss the Easter Bunny or Santa Claus or suggest that yoga meditation will bring people closer to nirvana. And yet, you took the time to write to us about God’s existence. You are trying to suppress the God of the Bible in your heart. Please consider this sincerely.
