By Ken Ham This summer we’ve been excited to host our first Explore Camp, a five-day science day camp here at the Creation Museum. We just wrapped up another week of camp and we’re excited to see how much the kids enjoyed the hands-on activities and the science teaching from a biblical creationist worldview. In one of the activities, the students really got to the “heart” of the matter—they dissected a sheep heart, with medical doctor Tommy Mitchell. We did a Facebook Live video of this fascinating activity, and I thought I would share it with you. <!– –> <div

By Ken Ham For many families across the US, school is starting back in just a few days. I hope all parents, however they choose to educate their children, realize the importance of education. It’s about so much more than just “reading, writing, and arithmetic.” As with every area of a child’s life, God’s Word must shape their education, and they must be encouraged to think biblically about what they’re learning. Well, our powerful online apologetics courses help high school and college students do just that. Students begin with our 15-lesson Foundations in Creation Apologetics course. This self-paced course features

By Ken Ham The American chicken sandwich chain Chick-Fil-A recently announced it was expanding into Canada, with its first location opening in Canada’s largest city, Toronto. But the news quickly sparked outrage from some of the Canadian LGBT community. Why? Not because the chicken isn’t delicious but because the CEO believes in biblical marriage. Canadians on Twitter were referring to Chick-Fil-A (or should the Canadian branch be Chick-Fil-eh?) as “homophobic” and a “bigoted and discriminatory business” promoting “hatred.” But who is really being bigoted, discriminatory, and filled with hate? Those who are rushing to boycott and slam Chick-Fil-A. They claim

By Ken Ham Did the book of Leviticus once permit homosexuality? That’s the (highly fallible) opinion of a Harvard professor of biblical studies. Dr. Idan Dershowitz, writing in the New York Times, proposes the ridiculous idea that Leviticus chapter 18 was rewritten to make homosexual behavior seem wrong. Sadly, Dr. Dershowitz is not alone in attempting to rewrite the Bible to permit gay relationships. Dr. Dershowitz focuses on Leviticus 18, specifically verse 22: You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination (Leviticus 18:22). He also looks at several verses in this chapter that

By Ken Ham I was recently interviewed for a rather lengthy piece in the Grant County News, the local newspaper for the county where our Ark Encounter Christian themed attraction is located. Since we have now been open for two years, the editor wanted to know what expansions we have planned and how we will attract new guests and entice previous visitors to return. I was excited to share some of our future plans and thought I would share that interview with you, including a final section that was left out of the newspaper due to space. You’ve recently concluded

By Ken Ham If you think our Western culture can’t get any more perverse than it already is, think again! In a new trend, public libraries in America are hosting “Drag Queen Story Hours,” where drag queens (generally, men who wear feminine clothing or makeup to entertain people) come and read books, sing songs, and do crafts with children in the library. The Yorkville Library, part of the New York Public Library network, recently featured one such story hour, advertising it as an event for children aged 3–8. This short video shows a drag queen during one of these story

By Sarah Chaffee Today’s episode of ID the Future features “In the Market” radio host Janet Parshall interviewing Center for Science and Culture senior fellow Jonathan Witt, co-author of the recent book Heretic: One Scientist’s Journey from Darwin to Design. Witt and Parshall discuss the book Heretic, some brave anti-Darwin heretics, and a recent scholarly study claiming to show that greater science education and science literacy encourages acceptance of evolution. Witt highlights what he sees as some glaring problems in the study’s survey, and in the way Darwinian evolution is normally taught. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham When the central feature of your Christian themed attraction is a full-size Noah’s Ark that’s 510 feet long, 85 feet wide, and 51 feet high, you end up doing other things big to go along with it! Big is certainly a word to describe our restaurant, Emzara’s Buffet, and its kitchen at the Ark Encounter. Emzara’s Buffet seats 1,500 people and feeds nearly 3,000 guests every day during our busy summer season. This makes it one of the largest (and busiest) restaurants in the United States—and it takes quite the kitchen to operate this restaurant! I recently

By Ken Ham A bus company in the UK has pulled advertisements from the sides of its buses promoting an upcoming Festival of Hope featuring evangelist Franklin Graham. Reportedly, “customer feedback and reactions on social media” resulted in “heightened tension,” causing the company to pull the ads. Why were people upset about Graham coming to speak? Because of his “stance on issues such as gay marriage and Islam.” Graham, son of the late evangelist Billy Graham, says he isn’t coming to the UK to speak on either of these issues. He is coming to share the good news of Christ.

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Pr. Emeritus Michael Flannery (U of Alabama-Birmingham) continues his discussion of evolutionist Kenneth Miller’s recent book The Human Instinct: How We Evolved to Have Reason, Consciousness, and Free Will. Flannery suggests that Miller’s “theistic evolution” is more precisely Darwinian theism — and that such a marriage is as ultimately hopeless as squaring the proverbial circle.

By Ken Ham It’s summertime here in the United States, and with school out, children have lots of extra free time. Many teachers and others encourage kids to keep reading over the summer, and many libraries release summer reading lists for various age groups to help keep children reading. So we’ve put together our own suggested Here’s just a sampling of some wonderful books included (for various ages) on these lists: When You See a Rainbow A Special Door The Answers Book for Kids, Volume 1 I Really, Really, Really Like Fossils Dinosaurs for Kids Noah: Man of God The

By Ken Ham When was the last time your pastor or other Christian leader in your church got away for a time of rest, encouragement, and solid Bible teaching? It’s probably been a while! Pastors do so much and work so hard to serve their congregations. Consider sending them and their wives away for some time to relax and reconnect. We’ve got the perfect event for that—our upcoming Answers for Pastors conference here at the Creation Museum near Cincinnati, October 9–11, 2018. During this conference, pastors, Christian leaders, or anyone who wants to attend will be encouraged to defend the

By Ken Ham It seems extraterrestrial aliens make the news quite frequently (despite the fact that they don’t exist!). Every few weeks there’s a new study about why we supposedly haven’t found them, when we will find them, or why they’re no longer around. And a new study, based on the former inhabitants of Easter Island off the coast of Chile, claims the aliens we’re spending billions searching for won’t be found because climate change already killed them. Studies have suggested that perhaps the inhabitants of Easter Island died out due to a depletion of their resources, leading to starvation

By Ken Ham Several months ago, I was invited by a student group to speak at the University of Central Oklahoma. However, after the LGBT group on campus complained about me coming (because I believe marriage is between one man and one woman—which is deemed as hate speech by this group), I was disinvited, despite having a signed contract to speak. This story was carried by news media across the nation, and, due to pressure put on the school, my invitation was reinstated and I, along with Dr. Georgia Purdom of AiG, had a very successful event at UCO. Well,
