By Creation Moments What caused dinosaurs to virtually disappear from the face of the Earth? Was it an asteroid, as scientists now tell us? According to Dr. Henry Gee, science writer for Nature, “Nobody will ever know what caused the extinction of the dinosaurs because we weren’t there to watch it happen.” read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Creation Moments As we all know, coughing is a reflex that clears our breathing passages from secretions, irritants, foreign particles and even microbes that might make us sick. We also know that sneezing is a reflex that cleanses our nasal cavity by forcefully expelling foreign particles and irritants. But why do we sigh? Is it just because we’re exasperated or surprised? read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments One of God’s most amazing and amusing creatures is the Superb Lyrebird, a bird found in the rainforests of Victoria, New South Wales and southeast Queensland, in Tasmania and along the east coast of Australia. After British naturalist and filmmaker David Attenborough turned his cameras on them, the lyrebird achieved worldwide fame for its unique ability to mimic the calls of virtually anything they hear. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Creation Moments How long does it take for a volcano to form? Scientists who reject the flood of Noah’s time insist that it takes many thousands or millions of years. And yet, we know from eyewitness testimony that at least one volcano – Mount Paricutin in Mexico – grew to over 300 feet in height within a week of its birth. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Creation Moments To environmental alarmists, carbon dioxide is a pollutant and its existence in Earth’s atmosphere is one of the greatest threats facing our planet today. But if plants could talk, they’d tell you a totally different story. To plants, carbon dioxide is food, and right now they are begging for more! read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
The book of Genesis lays the groundwork for the Christian belief system. It is the foundation of everything that God has undertaken on behalf of humanity. Therefore, we need a correct understanding of Genesis in order to correctly understand our identity, our responsibility, and our future. Should we treat the Genesis account as historical fact? Should we believe in a literal creation? What does Genesis say about what and how God created? More… …read more Read more here: icr.org
By Multimedia This episode of ID the Future features part two of Casey Luskin’s interview with James LeFanu, author of Why Us?: How Science Rediscovered the Mystery of Ourselves. According to Dr. LeFanu, one of the problems with Darwin’s theory and where it stands today is that it presupposes that the argument is closed, draining interest and fascination from the question of our origins. Dr. LeFanu discusses the problems with the Darwinian explanation for the evolution of the eye and how the development of genetics has brought our attention to the deep inscrutability of the nature of genetic structures and

By Creation Moments Is the human hand evidence of a Creator? In a paper which appeared in the science publication PLOS ONE, a team of four scientists claimed that the link between muscles and hand movements is the product of “proper design by the Creator.” The paper goes on to say that human hand coordination “should indicate the mystery of the Creator’s invention,” and concludes by again claiming the mechanical architecture of the hand is the result of “proper design by the Creator.” read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Multimedia This episode of ID the Future features part one of Casey Luskin’s interview with James LeFanu, author of Why Us?: How Science Rediscovered the Mystery of Ourselves. Dr. LeFanu shares his perspective as someone who straddles two worlds, encountering science on a micro level in his practice as a medical doctor, and reflecting on the broader aspects of science and medicine as an author and columnist for the UK’s Daily Telegraph. Dr. LeFanu explains why he doubts the too-simplistic Darwinian account, where the “facade of knowing” is daily challenged by the inescapable complexity of life. To learn more

That is, they might have been useful to humans in our evolutionary past, but other than allowing some people to wiggle their ears, they have no purpose today. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Multimedia On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin discusses The Design of Life: Discovering Signs of Intelligence in Biological Systems with author Dr. William Dembski. Is design in nature just an “illusion,” as Richard Dawkins proclaims? Dembski and co-author Dr. Jonathan Wells show the answer is “no.” Biologists have and continue to use the assumption of design successfully, precisely because design in biology is not an illusion but real.

By Multimedia On this episode of ID The Future, CSC Research Director Casey Luskin examines a recent paper in Genome Biology and Evolution which argues that the famous beta-globin pseudogene is functional. Why is this pseudogene famous? Well, it’s been Exhibit A — literally, offered as evidence in a court case — for critics of intelligent design who argue that our genome is full of useless, functionless junk, and therefore can’t be a product of design. In light of this new evidence for the functionality of the beta-globin pseudogene, it seems that this so-called Exhibit A, collapses. Your browser does

By Creation Moments Where is everybody?! That’s what physicist Enrico Fermi wanted to know. After all, if life evolved on Earth, he thought, certainly it must have evolved on countless other planets. So in 1950, he put forth what is called the “Fermi paradox” – a challenge to other scientists to explain why extraterrestrial life has not yet been found. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Creation Moments On our previous broadcast, we told you about the Fermi paradox. In case you missed it, the Fermi paradox is the attempt by scientists to account for the fact that we have not come in contact with extraterrestrial life. This is a very real problem for evolutionists because they believe that if life evolved here, evolution must have occurred on countless other planets. So why haven’t we found anybody out there? Here are a few attempts to solve the Fermi paradox. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Creation Moments How good are evolutionists at explaining the origin of life? Not very! Listen to what some have written and said. First up is professor Paul Davies from the University of Arizona. In his book The Fifth Miracle: The Search for the Origin and Meaning of Life, he wrote, “Obviously, Darwinian evolution can operate only if life of some sort already exists.” He continued: “Darwinism can offer absolutely no help in explaining that all-important first step: the origin of life.” read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
