By Ken Ham It’s increasingly common to meet people of different religions in the workplace, on the street, at school or university, or even living next door to us. So how do we reach Muslims, Judaists, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons, and atheists with the message of the gospel? Well, get equipped to do just that with Answers in Genesis-UK/Europe’s upcoming virtual conference, “World Religions and Cults,” on October 31, 2020. You’ll get practical answers from a former Jehovah’s Witnes, a former Mormon (our very own Roger Patterson), Bodie Hodge (coeditor, with Roger Patterson, of the World Religions and Cults series), Simon

In its September 21 issue, the Journal of Theoretical Biology published a major peer-reviewed article on fine-tuning in biology that favorably discusses intelligent design. The article explicitly cites work by Discovery Institute Fellows such as Stephen Meyer, Günter Bechly, Ann Gauger, Douglas Axe, and Robert J. Marks. The article is co-authored by Steinar Thorvaldsen and Ola Hössjer. Hössjer is a professor of mathematical statistics at Stockholm University who is favorable to intelligent design. This is a big deal for the mainstreaming of ID. The Journal of Theoretical Biology is a top peer-reviewed science journal. According to CiteScore, it is the

By Ken Ham Psalm 19 begins with the phrase, “The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.” Truly the heavens are an awe-inspiring declaration of the grandeur, majesty, power, and handiwork of the omnipotent Creator—who simply spoke and then countless stars and galaxies leapt into place. Well, you can discover more about the heavens and how they declare the glory of God in These new videos, produced by Awesome Science Media, feature in-depth discussion on six topics, including asteroids and comets, searching for alien life, amazing stars, the law of gravity, the space race,

By Ken Ham Climate change, extinction, plastic pollution—these are some of the big environmental issues of our day. As believers, we have a responsibility to exercise biblical dominion over creation (Genesis 1:27). But how do we do that practically? Well, our upcoming issue of the award-winning You’ll discover biblical answers to questions about looming extinctions, plastic pollution, and how we as Christians should approach caring for God’s creation. You’ll also meet modern homesteaders, discover the simple yet controversial answer to why mountains are high and oceans are low, dive into the question, “Should we cancel Darwin?” and so much more.

By Ken Ham It’s a big question for many people: “Which Christian college should I attend?” The majority of Christian colleges have abandoned biblical authority and instead have added man’s ideas into Scripture. These schools can do much more harm than good to a young person’s faith (sometimes even more harm than an atheistic, secular school). So how can you find a solid Christian college that takes a stand on Genesis and biblical authority? All the colleges featured at the expo are schools that take a stand on biblical authority, a literal six-day creation, the age of the earth, and

By James Tour On this episode of ID the Future, Rice University synthetic organic chemist and inventor James M. Tour continues his conversation with Stephen C. Meyer, director of the Center for Science and Culture. In this third of three episodes featuring the two researchers, Tour draws from questions sent in by listeners of his own podcast. These include questions about the multiverse, quantum cosmology, the possibility — and theological implications — of life on other planets, the Big Bang, and what intelligent design thinking has to say about viruses and bacteria. The episode is excerpted from an extended interview

By Richard Weikart [Edited] On this episode of ID the Future, historian Richard Weikart continues his conversation with host Michael Keas about “scientific” racism. The evil of racism was nothing new when Darwin and his evolutionary theory came on the scene, but according to Weikart, racist thinking, increased “by orders of magnitude” under the influence of Darwinism and evolutionary thinking, and became mainstream science. The idea of a Malthusian “struggle for existence” meant there must be winners and losers in the fight for population survival, and Darwin believed that the best, and inevitable, outcome would be that the supposedly superior

While out on ministry CMI’s speakers are regularly approached by parents, teens or young people in the church on gay marriage and climate change. These are massive cultural topics in the media today and there is pressure to conform, lest we be labelled as climate change deniers or ‘homophobes’. There is no question that the pressure is mounting on the church, and especially on our young people at school or university. …read more Source: creation.com

By Richard Weikart On this episode of ID the Future, historian and Cal State Stanislaus emeritus professor Richard Weikart speaks with host Michael Keas about the dark history of “scientific” racism. Racism, of course, long pre-dated Darwinism, but as Weikart argues, Darwin and Darwinian evolutionary theory greatly fueled racist thinking in the late nineteenth century and even down to the present. Weikart notes that Darwin himself was “intensely racist,” writing (The Descent of Man, 1871) that “at some time the civilized races of man will exterminate and replace throughout the world the savage races.” Darwin didn’t merely predict this; he

By Ken Ham According to a recent survey, 24% of so-called evangelical Christians in the U.S. agree “gender identity is a matter of choice.” Of this same group, 20% disagree that “sex outside of traditional marriage is a sin” and 18% agree with this statement, “the Bible’s condemnation of homosexual behavior doesn’t apply today” (and 10% aren’t sure!). What does this survey tell us? Well, apparently Christians are very confused when it comes to sexuality and biblical morality! So many people in our churches are biblically illiterate! This conference will focus on biblical and practical answers to issues regarding sexuality.

By Ken Ham America is dying. It has been dying for some time. We have been watching the spiritual death of a nation as we have seen the following actions: The God of the Bible has been basically eliminated from government schools. The religion of evolution is taught as fact to generations of kids. The religion of atheism has become the state religion as generations are taught everything in the universe is explained by naturalism (atheism). Crosses, nativity scenes, and other symbols associated with Christianity have been removed from public places. An obsession with the religion of death is growing—the

By Ken Ham In our culture today, disagreeing with someone (especially against the sexual, homosexual, and gender revolutionaries) is considered dangerous “hate speech.” Many people believe those who dare utter such disagreement should lose their right to free speech. This intolerance is becoming increasingly common across the West—just ask one pastor who said that a “pride” parade was celebrating sin . . . and then found himself and his family personally threatened, his church the target of arson threats, and fabricated pornographic images, featuring the pastor, began circulating on the internet. When asked why he thought this was “wonderful,” he

By Ken Ham Ok, now I have your attention! In the USA, a major election is looming, probably one of (if not) the most crucial in the history of this nation. Sometimes I’ve had conversations while out shopping where a store employee asks if I’m Republican or Democrat. My answer? I tell them I’m a Christian, and as a Christian, I build my worldview on the Bible. Then I explain that I will use the Bible as my absolute authority and judge politicians’ beliefs and promises accordingly. This will direct the way I vote. I’ve had Christians tell me that
