By Ken Ham Editors Note: Walsh has since responded to this post. We will be responding to his video on Answers News November 19, 2018, starting at 2 p.m. on my facebook page and the AiG YouTube channel. We hope you are able to join us. Recently the popular Catholic political blogger Matt Walsh made a fairly lengthy video explaining why he was not a young-earth creationist and why he thinks young-earth creationists are a stumbling block to the faith of many people. The video is filled with strawman fallacies, misunderstandings, and mischaracterizations of what creationists actually believe. After watching

Lewis on Science, Scientism, and Society with the editor of the book, Dr. John West. Boze and Dr. West discuss how some have tried to construe C.S.

By Ken Ham We’re thrilled to announce we’re starting the final phase of the current Creation Museum upgrades known as Operation Upgrade! Starting last year, we’ve been upgrading aspects of the Creation Museum to accommodate for the significant increase in the number of guests we’re hosting and allowing them to move throughout the museum with ease. In the first phases of the upgrades, we added more parking, widened hallways in the main part of the museum, added another set of restrooms, and made other modifications to ensure that every guest has a wonderful, enjoyable experience. Our most recent upgrade featured

My parents took me to church and Sunday school, but we rarely talked about God. I loved to read, but the science books contradicted the Bible. I read of a universe that was billions of years old and of dinosaurs that supposedly lived many millions of years ago. I read of human descent from apes. The geology books denied Noah’s Flood. Without evidence, I concluded the Bible could not be true, and I drifted from God. I double-majored in math and physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), studied theoretical math for three years, and got a law

By Sarah Chaffee This episode of ID the Future features the second half of philosopher of science Stephen Meyer’s recent appearance on the Dennis Prager Show. Meyer and Prager discuss some of the critics of intelligent design who tie themselves in knots: Theistic evolutionists who claim life arose through a completely undirected process directed by God, and materialists who insist on a universe from “nothing,” but where “nothing” means something.

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Dean Abbott hosts Discovery Institute Senior Fellow Wesley J. Smith in a conversation about human cloning, human exceptionalism, and human rights. Smith explains some of the reasons behind the drive toward human cloning, and places the error of that thinking in historic context of some of the worst ethical mistakes humans have made down through history. It’s all about forgetting who we are as human beings. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham Many Christian colleges and institutions—indeed, Christians themselves—stand at a crossroads right now. They can either choose to cave to intense cultural pressure and embrace LGBT ideology at the expense of biblical truth and obedience to God and his Word (as this article attempts to get them to do) or they can choose to stand strong, believing God’s Word over the growing cultural clamor and landslide of personal narrative that urges them to be “inclusive,” “loving,” and “tolerant” of what the Bible clearly says are sinful practices and lifestyles. God’s Word gives us direction on how to think

By Ken Ham Thanksgiving is a great time to remind your church about why we’re thankful and who we’re thankful to—our Creator God! “Oh, how abundant is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you and worked for those who take refuge in you, in the sight of the children of mankind” (Psalm 31:19)! To help you encourage the people in your church (or even in your own home) with a message of thanksgiving, we’re offering free Thanksgiving lessons from Answers Bible Curriculum, our Sunday school curriculum. These lessons, now available for pre-K through adult, come

By Ken Ham Here at Answers in Genesis, we’re very thankful for the sacrifice those who have served in our military have made. Because of their sacrifice, we enjoy so many freedoms here in America. And we want to thank our veterans for their service by offering them free admission to both the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter on Veteran’s Day, November 11, 2018. Here at Answers in Genesis, we’re very thankful for the sacrifice those who have served in our military have made. This free day is in addition to the discount we offer active and retired service

By Ken Ham Tomorrow is National STEM/STEAM Day, a day to raise awareness for the growing importance of STEM and STEAM education. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and STEAM is the same, with the addition of art. So, I thought I would take the opportunity to tell my supporters about Camp Infinity, a STEM camp that, as far as we know, is unique in the world. Camp Infinity (Ci) is a unique creation apologetics STEM camp. Through hands-on STEM activities and expert teaching, they equip academically inclined young people to think biblically on the science and technology

By Ken Ham Today is Halloween, a holiday celebrated by millions of Americans, as well as others around the world. Observing this day that celebrates a macabre fascination with death is a hotly debated topic among Christians. Regardless of how you approach it, I want you to be encouraged as you look around your neighborhood and see gravestones, ghosts, and skeletons, because Jesus has defeated death! To those without Christ, death is a scary reality. To those without Christ, death is a scary reality. We all know it’s coming; we just hope it’s a long way off. And what happens

By Ken Ham There are times I just get so tired of the secular media’s bias against Christians! Actually, what the secular media does a lot in politics (spread misinformation) has been done against Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and Ark for many years. Take this latest article about supposed Ark attendance republished by the The Cincinnati Enquirer (see photo): The paper did not talk to me as CEO (or, as far as I know, never asked to talk to me) before printing this misleading and erroneous attack piece against the Ark.

By Ken Ham If a movie is performing within the top 10 of movies in theaters, would you expect nearly two hundred theaters to drop the film? Of course not. Now what if I told you that film showed abortion for what it is—an evil practice? Then you might not be so surprised to learn that 188 theaters have dropped the top-performing film Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer apparently because it paints abortion in its proper light as a murderous practice. This is yet another example of censorship to stop the public from finding out the truth!

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID The Future from the vault, mathematician David Berlinski joins biochemist Michael Denton for continued discussion on the difficulties of Darwinian evolution to be a viable modern theory of the origin and development of life and the cosmos. On this episode, Berlinski explains why many conservative intellectuals have trouble doubting Darwin. Denton suggests that the mechanistic, Darwinian framework will eventually collapse, and reviews the essential differences in worldview between the Darwin supporter and the Darwin doubter.
