By Douglas Axe On this classic episode of ID the Future, author Douglas Axe continues his conversation with Eric Metaxas about Axe’s book Undeniable: How Biology Confirms Our Intuition That Life is Designed and his account of how he lost his position at a Cambridge research lab because of the implications of his research findings. Axe also talks about the currently polarized atmosphere in science, the reliability of the design intuition, and the larger implications of living in a designed universe.

Two recent reports undermine natural selection, but support design. The reports reinforce the reality that creatures are active, problem-solving beings that sense environmental changes and produce targeted adaptive responses. Another new insight is that an organism’s offspring could produce the same targeted response. However, the adaptive traits aren’t due to changes in DNA per se. Rather, the expression of the genes are modified dur… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham I’m so excited that we’re welcoming the very popular Keith and Kristyn Getty to the Ark Encounter for a live concert October 9, 2019. The Gettys are an iconic hymn-writing duo, originally from N. Ireland, and they will be bringing their Irish and Bluegrass band and choir with them for an evening of worship and beautiful music. And I’m going to specially request that they play my wife’s favorite hymn, “In Christ Alone,” which is probably their most famous song. Tickets are still on sale, so be sure to secure your spot today. It’s going to be

By Ken Ham Every year, 360 competitors (from over 5,000 entrants earlier in the summer) gather for the finals of the National Bible Bee Competition as they quote Bible passages in competition for over $100,000 in prize money. It’s an exciting event that glorifies the Bible and helps young people (aged 7–18) hide God’s Word in their hearts. And we’re excited to announce that the 2019 final evening of competition, November 21, will be taking place in the Answers Center at the Ark Encounter! The final evening and awards celebration will take place at the Answers Center at the Ark

Each time a fossilized creature with legs is found mingled with fossil sea creatures, a new quandary for evolutionary history presents itself. When the same situation surfaces many times, that quandary multiplies. Discoveries like a new and relatively complete hadrosaur from Japan keep testing secular scientists’ skills to imagine ways whole dinosaurs could have fossilized. These findings also happen to make slick-fitting pieces of the Bibl… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham Our “One Race, One Blood,” an Answers Conference for Pastors and Everyone is just around the corner, October 8–10, 2019, in northern Kentucky. Pastors and believers from across the country are gathering at the Ark Encounter to discover biblical and scientific answers to the issue of race and racism—as well as to enjoy a concert from modern hymn writers Keith and Kristyn Getty (writers of “In Christ Alone”). It’s going to be an incredible time of equipping, encouragement, and more—and you can still register to join us (and you’ll enjoy some freebies when you do!). When you

By Ken Ham The well-known dictionary Merriam-Webster recently announced it is adding a new definition for the pronoun “they.” This new definition reads that “they” can be “used to refer to a single person whose gender identity is nonbinary.” This is described as “a significant recognition that the new pronouns have reached the mainstream.” Even the words used to define the new alternative usage of “they” by Merriam-Webster demonstrate how much our language has changed. But it’s not just this new usage of the old pronoun that has “reached the mainstream.” Even the words used to define the new alternative

By Andrew McDiarmid On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid looks at three new discoveries in nature that shout design. The cone snail has a harpoon as fast as a speeding bullet. Researchers are looking at it for design ideas for robots and medical devices. The humble dandelion’s seeds are so optimized for lift and flight time that scientists wonder about borrowing its design for parachutes. And there’s a species, the mantis shrimp, whose larvae have “flashlights” in their eyes similar to advanced optics designed by human researchers. See more on these design wonders at Evolution News. …read

By Richard Sternberg On this episode of ID the Future, Dr. Richard Sternberg, research fellow at the Biologic Institute, speaks on his mathematical/logical work showing the difficulty of identifying genes purely with material phenomena, and that DNA doesn’t have all that’s needed to direct the development of organisms. The math, he says, is even showing gaps in the computability of what happens in the cell, which could help shed light on how machine-like organisms are or are not, how evolvable they are, and whether artificial life is possible.

By Ken Ham We recently had someone who produces high-quality nature videos for a variety of secular companies (including the Smithsonian) speak to our staff. He is a believer and a young-earth creationist. He shared that it was Answers in Genesis VHS tapes from back when he was a kid that helped him develop a biblical worldview regarding Genesis. We hear stories like this all the time—and that’s why we continue to produce videos (though they aren’t on VHS format anymore!). And now you can enjoy all our videos in one place.

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, From Darwin to Hitler author and historian Richard Weikart returns to his conversation with Mike Keas about a recent book on Darwinism, Christianity, and war by Michael Ruse. Ruse aims at a surprising conclusion in this book. Weikart says he gets there first of all by overlooking several of the most important early voices on Darwinism and war. And the book’s conclusion? That Christianity should “compromise” with a form of religious Darwinism Ruse favors, by giving up on core Christian doctrines. Weikart pushes back. Please consider donating to support the

By Richard Weikart On this episode of ID the Future, From Darwin to Hitler author and historian Richard Weikart speaks with Mike Keas about a recent book on Darwinism, Christianity, and war by Michael Ruse. Weikart says that in the course of the book Ruse appears to shift from warning others about treating Darwinism as a secular religion to himself embracing it as such. Weikart also says the book presents Darwinist views on war as more palatable than Christian views, but only manages to do so by ignoring key primary and secondary historical material indispensable to a fair and accurate

By Ken Ham My dear friend and ministry colleague Dr. Tommy Mitchell went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday, September 17 (you can read my tribute to him in this article). He is deeply missed by his family and his friends. He was a very popular speaker, conveying truths about Genesis and God’s Word in a clear and often humorous, way. Thousands and thousands of people were impacted by his ministry with AiG. Many of his talks were livestreamed and are now available on one playlist on our Answers in Genesis YouTube channel. In the following playlist, …read

By Matti Leisola On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid reads an excerpt from Heretic: One Scientist’s Journey from Darwin to Design by Finnish bioengineer Matti Leisola and Jonathan Witt. It makes the case that modern neo-Darwinism is today’s “phlogiston,” a theory that explains everything but nothing, faces mounting contrary evidence, and survives only with ever more ancillary hypotheses. In the excerpt Leisola and Witt also discuss the well-documented pattern of scientists defending an existing scientific paradigm even after fresh discoveries have turned against it, with the obsolete dominant paradigm dying only very slowly. An especially dramatic and
