Where can we find hope during times of waiting? How has ICR reached a new global audience? How does evolution conflict with the Bible’s teaching about sin? And why should we believe in recent creation? Discover the answers to these questions and more in the July 2020 issue of Acts & Facts! …read more Source: icr.org
As ICR previously reported, more Americans are enjoying birdwatching as other recreational opportunities are reduced by pandemic politics.1 Of more importance than mere recreation, of course, birdwatching provides opportunities to admire and appreciate how God has gifted diverse birds to “be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth.”1 Recently, Great Britain has mandated strict lockdown and confineme… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Recently, the issue of the moon’s motion away from Earth was discussed on a popular science website.1,2 The author of the article is a geologist who disputes the creationist claim that the moon’s gradual recession from the Earth is a problem for a solar system that is billions of years old. Laser-ranging experiments show that the moon is receding from Earth at the rate of 3.8 centimeters per year.3… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Eric H. Anderson On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid interviews Eric Anderson, one of the co-authors of the new book Evolution and Intelligent Design in a Nutshell. The two discuss Eric’s chapters on the origin-of-life problem. There’s the problem of generating the information required of the first life form. And there’s another problem, one Anderson uses his engineering background to explore — the insuperable challenges to generating a self-replicating molecule, a hypothetical entity at the heart of some recent attempts to render plausible the evolution of non-life into cellular life.

A recent study, from the University of Exeter in England, provides insight into how and why European pine martens need each other—but also like to keep their distance from each other. The research also covered how the presence of pine martens affects the behavior of local squirrels.1-3 European pine martens are weasel-sized, smaller than many domestic cats, and move about in woodlands. Many have tracked ranges that… More… …read more Source: icr.org
Wandering albatrosses have the largest wingspan of any living bird, so they live much of life soaring above the oceans. With their wings—and a lot of winds—it is no wonder that their use of wind-power would be studied by scientists, as a recent report illustrates.1,2 And, because albatross males are bigger, they need more wind. A new study of albatrosses has found that wind … More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham Families visiting the Creation Museum between now and July 18 are in for a special treat! Bob Jones University’s Science Ambassador and chemist Dr. George Matzko, together with his wife, Darlene, is presenting interactive science demonstrations for the whole family. You’ll discover incredible facts about water, electrons, and air that will point you to the one who made them all—our Creator God. You’ll never look at a glass of water or think about air or electricity the same way again! <img src="https://assets.answersingenesis.org//img/blogs/ken-ham/2020/07/matzco-science-presentation5.jpg" alt="Dr. George …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, biochemist Michael Behe reviews the Long Term Evolution Experiment at Michigan State, where Richard Lenki’s team was initially excited to see what they thought was a new species forming in their flasks of E. coli. As Behe has written at Evolution News, one flask of E. coli in Lenski’s experiment evolved the ability to metabolize (“eat”) citrate in the presence of oxygen. But along with it came multiple mutations breaking genes, degrading genetic information, and ultimately increasing the bacteria’s death rates. It all goes to support Behe’s thesis in Darwin

Dolphins—like other cetaceans such as whales, wholphins, and porpoises—are highly intelligent marine mammals, capable of astonishing feats. A recent University of Leeds study, led by Sonja Wild, adds to what we humans have learned about what and how dolphins learn.1,2 Dolphins catch fish as prey by a mix of programmed instincts and learning.3,4 One example of learned fish-catching be… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham What would it have been like to watch Noah build the ark, see the animals arrive as guided by God’s divine command, or experience the first drops of water as the flood began? Well, you can travel through time and experience it for yourself with our virtual reality experience, Truth Traveler, coming to the Ark Encounter by mid-July. This VR experience is going to be like no other! The quality is like anything you’d expect from Disney or Universal Studios, but the message is very different! Not only does Truth Traveler emphasize the historicity of the flood

A study led by Oxford University researchers was recently published confirming that Neanderthals and humans were very genetically similar and interfertile. They were even closer than polar and brown bears are to each other, which are known to mate and produce viable offspring in the wild quite easily.1 Along with a plethora of previous DNA studies, this research further confirms that Neanderthals were an ancient people group of the hum… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham Most people are familiar with the “group shaming” concept of “cancel culture.” It’s defined as “the popular practice of withdrawing support for (i.e., canceling) public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive.” Well, as people “cancel” celebrities and organizations for various things, including supposed racist statements, why haven’t they “cancelled” Charles Darwin? A recent opinion piece by Peter Heck on the news site Disrn made this very argument—one I’ve been making in presentations and social media posts for a long time. Heck writes, Even by the most generous of measures,
