By Creation Moments According to researchers from the University of Tübingen and the German Center for Infection Research, there’s a bacterium in your nose that may have already saved your life numerous times in the past and will likely save your life many times more in the future. That bacterium – Staphylococcus lugdunensis – is well known for inhabiting your nose. But now it has come to light that the bacterium produces a previously unknown antibiotic named Lugdunin. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments For years, evolutionists have told the public that during the time of the dinosaurs, plants were only of the non-flowering kind.

By Creation Moments On our previous Creation Moments broadcast, we had good news for coffee drinkers – specifically, that the caffeine in coffee does not make a person dehydrated. The long-held myth that coffee is a diuretic was the product of 90-years-old bad science. Well, today we’ve got even more good news about something you might already be consuming at breakfast. Once you hear how feeding it to laboratory mice improved their learning ability, you might want to make it a regular part of your family’s breakfast. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Glass squid are amazingly good at not being seen by creatures who desire to eat them because, as their name makes clear, their bodies are transparent. In fact, as an article in Science News tells us, “Marine predators often scan the waters above them for the silhouettes of prey blocking sunlight, but there’s little to betray a glass squid.” There’s just one problem, however. The squid’s eyes are not transparent, exposing the creature’s whereabouts. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Many environmentalists would have us all believe that the Earth is as fragile as a raw egg. While creationists agree that we must be good stewards of the planet God has put us on, we believe He created our planet to be amazingly resilient. Even when we do something that some people consider to be feel harmful to our planet, the natural processes that God has put into place – combined with man’s own creativity – will keep our world from self-destructing. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
