By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, attorney Herman Bouma tells the story of how his talk at a National Association of Science Teachers conference last April was canceled at the last minute. His talk highlighted how Darwin’s Origin of Species (sixth edition) set an example of engaging his scientific critics with civility and reason. Bouma says in response to the incident, “It’s almost as if they considered Darwin a threat to Darwinian evolution.” Three conference officials shut him down, accusing him of promoting fake science. As Bouma notes, Darwin wrote that “I look with confidence to

By Ken Ham A Detroit festival recently had to reverse its ticketing policy due to backlash, threats, and performers cancelling. What kind of ticketing policy did they have that sparked such outrage? Well, reportedly they featured an “‘Early Bird POC Ticket’ for $10—with POC meaning ‘people of color’—and an ‘Early Bird NONPOC Ticket’ for $20. The group defined ‘NONPOC’ as white people.” This disparity was, apparently, their attempt to fight inequity. But is such an approach a good answer to the problem of racism or inequality? Well, based on the negative feedback the festival received, I hope they realized it

An article addressing some of evolution’s difficulties was recently published in Aeon, a magazine of philosophy and culture. It was just another stark case of evolutionists embarrassed about the implications of their own worldview coupled with an obvious attempt to rewrite history. The article was oddly titled “Don’t misread Darwin: for humans, ‘survival of the fittest’ means being sympathetic.”More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham We hear from people every day who’ve visited or are visiting our two world-class Christian themed attractions, the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. These people come from all over the world and leave raving reviews. One person from Pennsylvania recently visited and posted that the Ark Encounter was “more beautiful and impactful than seeing the Eiffel Tower, the leaning tower of Pisa, Notre Dame, the Statue of Liberty, the Colosseum and any other man made creation” they had personally seen. Here is the full review from JW of Pittsburg, PA: I couldn’t stand not sharing this

By Ken Ham In the past, I would hear atheists argue that the Bible supposedly teaches a flat earth, and therefore we can’t trust anything it says about science. But now it’s not just atheists arguing the Bible teaches a flat earth—it’s some Christians, too, who’ve sadly fallen for flat-earth arguments and now believe that’s what the Bible teaches. But does it? The biblical text is meant to be interpreted naturally, according to the genre. No, it doesn’t. Now, flat earthers will frequently bring up poetic passages, such as verses from Psalms or Job, and say those verses teach a

By Ken Ham “This monument is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it.” Those are some of the words featured in “A Letter to the Future,” a memorial to a melted glacier in Iceland. Okjökull, known as Ok, lost its status as a glacier in 2014 due to its shrinking size. The presumed cause of the shrinkage? Man-made climate change. Throughout the article that reports on this melted glacier, these phrases are used, “the first glacier killed by climate change,” “the first casualty of climate change

By Ken Ham The more scientists dig into the fossil record, the more exciting and surprising fossils they discover. Recently, scientists announced the discovery of a new species of lizard inside the stomach of a microraptor, what they call a type of supposed “gliding dinosaur” (really, it’s a bird) from northeastern China. It’s so well-preserved, they can tell the bird swallowed the lizard head first! The researchers believe these fossils were exquisitely buried during a series of volcanic explosions some 130 million years ago. But there’s a better explanation! We find fossils that are incredibly preserved all around …read more

You might recall that viruses act as miniscule infectious agents. They forcibly enter a cell and conquer its molecular machinery. The cell is instructed, via viral DNA, to stop making its normal cellular parts and instead make more viruses by transcription and replication. As more and more viral parts are manufactured, the cell breaks apart—its wall rupturing in a process called lysis. Then newly-formed viruses are released a… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham Famed naturalist Sir David Attenborough, best known for his narration of nature documentaries, recently told a parliamentary committee in the United Kingdom that “we cannot be radical enough in dealing with [climate change].” I remember watching some of his nature documentaries on TV years ago, and they were nothing but evolutionary propaganda programs. Attenborough sees young people as the stimulus for bringing about a change that would get the UK to net-zero when it comes to carbon emissions. But should young people and others be pushing for radical solutions to the perceived climate crisis? Well, much of

Steve Turpin, O.D., M.S., a Doctor of Optometry, wrote about an alarming increase in nearsightedness in developed societies on behalf of the Evolution Institute (EI). His conclusions actually contradict Darwinian evolution.1 In fact, everything Dr. Turpin writes would have nothing to do with evolution were it not for his evolutionary conception of human history. Turpin, like many evolutionists, equate the primitive human ancestors that… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham At its annual representative assembly earlier this month, the National Education Association (NEA) formally adopted a statement that endorses abortion. The NEA is the largest teachers’ union in the US. It’s tragically ironic that an organization that is supposed to support those who will teach the next generation of students endorses killing off the next generation of babies before they are born! The NEA declared that they will now include an assertion of our defense of a person’s right to control their own body, especially for women, youth, and sexually marginalized people. The NEA vigorously …read more

By Ken Ham One of the biggest criticisms of biblical creation is, “Creationists don’t make testable predictions.” But that’s simply not true! Biblical creationists do make predictions—many of which have been confirmed by further research. Here are just a few of those predictions: The strength of several planets’ magnetic systems Helium in earth’s rocks The presence of radiohalos in metamorphosed sandstones Cold material from earth’s crust near the earth’s core The rapid reversal of earth’s magnetic field Harvard-trained scientist Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson, one of AiG’s research scientists, wrote Replacing Darwin, a book that challenges the evolutionary worldview with research from

07/30/19 ‘The origin of species is exactly what Darwin cannot explain’ David Gelernter, a famed Yale University professor, has publicly renounced his belief in Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution, calling it a “beautiful idea” that has been effectively disproved. Gelernter, who is known for predicting the World Wide Web and has developed many complex computing tools over the years, is today a professor of computer science at Yale, chief scientist at Mirror Worlds Technologies, member of the National Council of the Arts, and a prolific author.
