* ''Evolution of the eye during the so called Cambrian explosion''. It is assured that "Complex eyes appear to have first evolved within a few million years, in the rapid burst of evolution known as the [[Cambrian explosion]]. There is no evidence of eyes before the Cambrian, but a wide range of diversity is evident in the Middle Cambrian." The ''Cambrian explosion'' is postulated as replacement for the gap in any scientific explanation of what have allegedly happened and alien faculties for rapid innovation in fine-scale anatomy as well as gross morphology are attributed to it, resulting in what is presented as ''"great evolutionary event"''.<ref>{{cite web |author=Lee M.S.Y., Jago, J.B., Garcia-Bellido, D.C., Edgecombe, G.E., Gehling, J.G, Paterson, J.R. |title=Modern optics in exceptionally preserved eyes of Early Cambrian arthropods from Australia |publisher=[[Nature (journal)]] |date=30 June 2011|issue=474 |pages=631-634 |url=http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v474/n7353/full/nature10097.html |accessdate= August 4, 2013}}</ref>

*''2011 Nobel Prize interview on description of immune system.''<ref>{{cite web |title=Interview about 2011 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine |publisher=Nobelprize.org |url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG3dXEH7kbs |quote=...So this is really evolution at work, I mean the bacteria are trying to get around our immune system and the immune system is trying to work against them. Exactly, that is what it is and you mentioned the word evolution - it's amazing that we have kept our immune system for more than 600 million years. Hoffman discovered the immune system in flies. Amazingly, the same type of system operates in us, in you and me. I got it that it's actually the same gene  that works in fruit flies and in us. Yes, it's a very similar gene which indeed to us means that something is important. If something is conserved throughout evolution, its probably very important.}}</ref>

***The expression "This is really 'evolution' at work" is associated with following phenomena: the fight between bacteria and immune system: "the bacteria are trying to get around our immune system and the immune system is trying to work against them". Immune defense response has however nothing to do with any known definition of evolution whatsoever and the association with its simple description is far-fetched.

[[Pasteur]] perceived processes of this kind as hallmarks of [[intelligent design|design]] in nature by [[Creator]]: ''"If [[God]] had not seen to it that the organic laws governing the [[mutation]]s of [[tissue]] and [[liquid]]s in living bodies prevent [[microbe|microscopic beings']] propagation, at least in the normal conditions of [[life]] and [[health]], we would live under the constant threat of being overwhelmed by them."''<ref>[[Microbe|Pasteur on The Descructive Role of Microscopic Beings]]</ref>

***"If something is conserved through 'evolution', its probably very important". First of all the discovery describing how immune system works at present time provided no evidence whatsoever that evolution played any role in the history of immune system let alone any grounds are given that even if it would be so, the expressed dogmatic faith in its importance is substantiated. The statement "something is conserved through 'evolution'" simply reads like religious belief in something aesthetically very plausible and as something that crosses the gap in knowledge what took place in [in principle] unobservable past.{{#tag:ref|cf.

***The bold expression "we have kept our immune system for more than 600 million years" simply crosses the gaps in absolute lack of any idea of what have actually happened.
