By Ken Ham A blog appeared recently on the website for Americans United for Separation of Church and State titled, “Creationists Remain Hard at Work Trying to Block Sound Science Education.” It laments the tide of public opinion against evolution in the US and the way this influences how teachers present evolutionary ideas in the classroom. But I think headline should read instead, “AU Works Hard to Stop Every Student from Being Taught the Truth Regarding Evolution.” AU is really a group (just like the FFRF) that bullies those who don’t agree with them, trying to impose their anti-God religion

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Biola philosopher J. P. Moreland concludes a four-part series with host Mike Keas on scientism (not to be confused with objective scientific investigation). Moreland calls scientism “the single most destructive idea on the stage of life today. … It’s evil and it’s everywhere.” Strong words! But he isn’t without hope. Moreland explains how moral knowledge can be stronger, more secure, than even much scientific knowledge, and far more secure than the self-defeating materialist ideology that is scientism. He’s distilling arguments from his new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond

By Ken Ham As word continues to spread nationwide (and even internationally) about the amazing Ark Encounter and high-tech Creation Museum, more and more “grassroots” tour groups, as I might call them, are making the trek here to Northern Kentucky. There’s a constant flow of families through our gates—with many children and teens—plus church groups and other groups (including many non-Christians). One very loyal couple in Iowa has been sending buses of guests our way for several years from hundreds of miles away. As volunteers, Ellen and Roger Bauer have organized these trips and found nearly 1,000 tourists from Iowa

By Ken Ham It’s long been believed the great Inca civilization never left behind any written records. But what if that’s just because we couldn’t recognize their writing? A fascinating new study reveals the Incas did leave a written history behind—we just didn’t recognize it. This civilization was complex and absolutely massive, stretching from modern-day Ecuador to Chile during the 1400s. They built a system of roads and woven bridges to connect the land, built ziggurats that still astound engineers today, and left behind a bevy of artifacts for us to puzzle over. One such group of artifacts is known

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, philosopher J. P. Moreland explains from his new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology how scientism helped bring about Darwinism’s current widespread acceptance. Ironically, the process involved some scientists who dismiss theology … doing theology, and doing it not very well. Moreland says this is just one of the reasons that it’s rational to buck the consensus on evolution. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

We are constantly bombarded with fantastic claims about the past that are touted as scientific. The scientific method—a way to study the natural world—will help us better analyze these claims. Why should everyone know the scientific method? What role does the method play in studying historical events or unobserved speculations?

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, author, speaker, and radio talk show host Greg Koukl, president of Stand to Reason, talks through a review of Heretic: One Scientist’s Journey from Darwin to Design. It’s the autobiographical story, co-written by Jonathan Witt, of distinguished Finnish bioengineer Matti Leisola. His whole perspective on science changed when he asked himself the question Koukl likes to ask: “Do you want the right answers, or do you demand the right kinds of answers — those answers that comport with naturalism, materialism, and physicalism?” Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham One wonders if I’m going to be allowed to remain on Twitter anymore, as the platform is increasingly punishing those who dare to say anything against the current LGBT ideology. I certainly don’t attack a person, but we do judge their worldview against the clear teaching of Scripture. A recent news item reported that Twitter has updated its terms and user agreement to include a ban on “misgendering” and “deadnaming”—basically, refusing to allow Twitter users to make biologically—and biblically!—correct statements. “Misgendering” refers to when someone uses the “wrong” pronoun to describe a transgender person (i.e., calling a

By Ken Ham Although we’re based out of the United States, we have offices around the world (Peru, Mexico, UK/Europe, Canada, and Australia/New Zealand) and enjoy partnerships with apologetics ministries in many other nations. It’s a blessing that God allows us to reach people around the world with the gospel and the biblical authority message. And recently one of our scientists, geologist Dr. Andrew Snelling, had the privilege of traveling to Peru with AiG–Peru and AiG–Mexico and speaking in ten universities. Dr. Snelling, AiG–Mexico Director Joe Owen, and Creous and Elizabeth Ramdath of AiG–Peru …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Ken Ham Christmas is a time set aside to specially focus on Christ and his incarnation as a baby in Bethlehem. But it’s easy for us to get distracted by all the trappings of Christmas, and it’s especially easy for our kids to focus on the presents they’re anticipating, not on Christ and why he came. To help the children in your church (or home) focus on Christ and dive deeper into why he came, we’re offering Download free Sunday school lessons about the real meaning of Christmas. This free digital download includes: Teacher guide with introduction, Bible lesson,

By Ken Ham Research has shown that two-thirds of young people in US churches are walking away from the church by the time they reach college age, with very few returning. Why? Our own carefully conducted nationwide research shows clearly that it’s largely because of a lack of apologetics teaching, which leads to doubting God’s Word and the Christian faith in the face of secular attacks. Now we have a unique Sunday school curriculum, Answers Bible Curriculum, that’s designed to combat this! But sometimes it’s difficult to convince pastors and other Christian leaders to make the switch to ABC. Often

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, bioethicist Wesley J. Smith speaks with host Dean Abbott about the arrival of human cloning. While significant barriers remain that will slow its development as far as human-cloned babies and adults, ethical constraints still depend only on scientists’ restraint — a “thin reed to stand on.” Human cloning research is underway even now, under cover of scientific jargon to obscure what’s going on, Smith says.

By Ken Ham We recently wrapped up our annual Creation College Expo here at the Creation Museum. This year we welcomed 500 youth who learned about a wide variety of Christian, creationist colleges, attended special speaker presentations, and enjoyed free admission to the Creation Museum. We were thrilled to see so many young people come from across the United States and even Canada. These students and their parents are looking for a theologically conservative college that takes a stand on the authority of the Word of God beginning in Genesis. Thirty-two colleges were represented with booths …read more Source: Ken

By Ken Ham Have you ever had the opportunity to tour Israel? I was privileged to see many of the sites where biblical events took place when I did a speaking tour across Israel many years ago (all my pictures from the trip were taken with a film camera, not digital—that tells you how long ago it was!). It was incredibly impactful and really brought the Bible to life. And now you can have the opportunity to tour Israel, September 23–October 7, 2019, with AiG’s Dr. Georgia Purdom, in partnership with Tribe of Dan Tours. When people have visited the

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, host Mike Keas and philosopher J. P. Moreland continue their conversation on Moreland’s new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology. Scientism is the view that science trumps all other knowledge, but Moreland and Keas reveal in this podcast just how much science depends on both philosophy and history. Scientism is, thus, self-defeating. Nevertheless, and as Moreland goes on to argue, it remains “at the bottom of the turmoil that is facing our culture,” and many young people are being sucked into its errors. Your browser
