By Ken Ham What happened exactly 100 years ago tomorrow that impacts AiG even today? Well, it was on November 2, 1920, that the very first radio broadcast went out from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Well, radio has vastly improved over the past century and it’s still an important part of life today—including of the AiG ministry.

By Michael Denton On this ID the Future, biochemist Michael Denton draws from his groundbreaking new book, The Miracle of the Cell, to explore a fine-tuning design argument centered on the periodic elements essential for life. Twenty elements—and water, too—appear to have been precisely fine-tuned in advance for highly specific biochemical roles. Without their precise properties, cellular and animal life would be impossible. “Words fail,” says Denton, to describe the “almost eerie sense” that someone very powerful knew in advance the roles and capacities required of various elements to carry out the astonishingly sophisticated activities that make cellular life possible.

By Ken Ham Each year, and in nations around the world, tens of thousands of unborn babies (or maybe even more) lose their lives to abortion simply because that child will be born with a disability—or the probability of such according to a doctor’s appraisal. This horrendous practice discriminates against those who are most vulnerable—unborn children—giving them the death penalty simply because that child will be an unwanted inconvenience to their family or it’s perceived that the child will live a life of suffering and the parents or doctor decide that it’s a life not worth living. These pro-life activists

By Ken Ham The other day I was sent an incredibly powerful video. This short, animated video was produced by Choice42, a Canadian pro-life group trying to change public opinion about the value and humanity of the unborn. While the group is well known for its humorous videos on a variety of topics to make a strong point, their newest video, “Modern Child Sacrifice,” isn’t humorous at all—it makes a sobering point, one I’ve been saying for years: abortion is nothing more than modern “child sacrifice to the god of self.” I urge you to watch and share this powerful

By John Lennox On this ID the Future, host Stephen Meyer concludes his three-part conversation with Oxford mathematician and philosopher John Lennox on Lennox’s new film Against the Tide: Finding God in an Age of Science. Science depends on word, on logos, says Lennox, meaning the rational intelligibility of the universe. Francis Crick, co-discoverer of DNA, wished to disprove the need for God, but the language of DNA has turned out to be a signpost to an intelligence, Lennox comments, a logos, behind nature. Scientists still claim authority to pronounce against theism, but according to Lennox, such pronouncements come not

As Lennox explains, he grew up as the child of a uniquely non-sectarian Christian family in Northern Ireland, with parents who encouraged him to question broadly, read widely, and respect every person as a creature made in the image of God. He tells of his encounters with C. S. Lewis at Cambridge University, relates a humorous story in which atheist Peter Atkins gave him
