By Ken Ham These are exciting times at AiG. The life-size Noah’s Ark project is moving ahead in leaps and bounds. This past week, the board of directors met at Answers in Genesis. They were given a detailed update on the Ark Encounter project, to be built off I-75 (between Cincinnati and Lexington, Kentucky). Because of the intense construction activity on the Ark site, the board members were taken on a helicopter tour of the Ark property to see the progress. I have included a video below, as the chairman of the board and his wife accompanied me and our

By Ken Ham With millions watching this live debate on February 4, 2014, Bill Nye “the Science Guy” squared off with Answers in Genesis founder and president Ken Ham in a historic debate. Go behind the scenes and beyond the event with this book to get even more details on the topics discussed! Earlier this month, Bill Nye (TV’s famous “Science Guy”) appeared on Global News’s The Morning Show on October 1, 2014 and, speaking about people who believe in biblical creation, boldly predicted that “In another 20 years those guys will be just about out of business.” Other secularists

Up to the mid-19th century, a myth was just that—a myth. The Greek stories of gods and African spirit folk tales were regarded as untrue, whereas the findings of historians who compared documentary records were generally regarded as true. So was Genesis 1 to 11. But during the 19th century, ideas about what constituted a myth underwent rapid evolution. Myths were no longer regarded as stories devoid of truth, while truth was regarded as acceptable even if intertwined with myth. In the 20th century, Freud,1 a number of other writers, and people such as Velikovsky,2 came to regard myth as

How ‘lies’ confounded an evangelist by Dean R. Marshall Published: 16 October 2014 (GMT+10) Doubt can be a severe problem and was something that both Billy Graham and Charles Templeton faced.1,2 They were good friends, both famous evangelists, and they discussed those doubts. Those same doubts eventually caused Charles Templeton to say goodbye to God.1–3 And the basis for Templeton saying farewell to God stems from the ideas of Charles Lyell. Lyell’s motive and method Lyell wrote in a letter4 to one of his friends: “I had conceived the idea, five or six years ago, that if ever the Mosaic

If God created everything in 6 days when exactly were ‘bad things’ created? One of the most common questions asked of Christians is some version of: “If God is so loving, why are there bad things in the world?” The implication being that if God created this world in the state it is in, He can’t be ‘very good’ Himself. This is sometimes used as a reason to reject belief in God. Exodus 20:11 states God created everything in 6 literal days. But that then means that claws and poison must also have been created within those 6 days …

A group called the Nonhuman Rights Project is currently involved in a legal battle to get a 26-year-old chimpanzee named Tommy recognized as a legal person deserving of certain legal rights, such as “bodily liberty and bodily integrity.” The group claims that Tommy “is being unlawfully imprisoned and therefore being deprived of his fundamental common law right to bodily liberty.” Of course, this chimp only has a right to bodily liberty if it …read more

By Ken Ham Some weeks ago, I shared posts from an AiG board member, his wife, and their four children who were greatly burdened to adopt a family of six children from Eastern Europe. They didn’t want to see these six children split up, and they wanted to adopt them into their family as the Lord has adopted us as believers. This is a heart warming account, and I encourage you to read the post about when they—now a family of twelve—arrived home in the USA. Home is so much more than a place. It is where you belong. It

By Creation Moments One of our Creation Moments listeners has written to ask how evolutionists explain the development of male and female. The problem is, if a mutation produced the first male, it isn’t likely that another mutation would have produced the first female at the same time and in the same neighborhood. The writer further pointed out that studies now show that with the current genetic errors we all carry within us, one male and one female would not be enough to establish a new population of male and female creatures. read more …read more Read more here: Creation

By Ken Ham Many Christian colleges in the United States are compromising the biblical principles to which they supposedly adhere in exchange for worldly viewpoints—particularly in the book of Genesis. This compromise is a biblical authority undermining issue that permeates much of the church. It’s one of the reasons so many churched young people have a very secularized worldview. I’ve written several times about such rampant compromise that it is dangerous to our young people. Many of them actually walk away from the church and the Christian faith because of it. Sadly, many parents don’t realize this and spend thousands

By Creation Moments Just imagine a scientist going to the supermarket where he picks up a banana, an antenna from a blue crab, and a whisker from a catfish. He takes these back to his lab, hooks them together and connects the whole thing to his computer. He calls it a “bananatrode” and uses it to detect chemicals from the human body called dopamine. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham The misinformation about the Ark Encounter project (construction is underway in Northern Kentucky) continues! Now, I know it won’t surprise any of you that MSNBC is spreading even more of it! I thought it would be a good exercise for you to read the article I posted yesterday about the Ark project, and then read the misinformation-packed article posted on the MSNBC website—the same false claims keep appearing on various news sites and blogs. First, read the article I wrote to correct the misinformation being spread throughout the news media about the Ark Encounter. Then read this

By Ken Ham For years evolutionists have been repeating the famous mantra of “nothing in biology makes sense except in light of evolution” in one form or another. Evolutionary biologist David P. Barash is the latest to make statements of this kind. He wrote, “I’m a biologist, in fact an evolutionary biologist, although no biologist, and no biology course, can help being ‘evolutionary.’ My animal behavior class, with 200 undergraduates, is built on a scaffolding of evolutionary biology . . . It’s irresponsible to teach biology without evolution.” He goes on to say, “Many Americans don’t grasp the fact that
