By Ken Ham Famous American radio broadcaster Paul Harvey is remembered for a radio program that began, “Now, the rest of the story . . . .” In recent times, Americans have been increasingly waking up to the extreme bias of much of the secular media, with an understanding that you just can’t necessarily trust what the media broadcasts or publishes. Of course, we at Answers in Genesis aren’t surprised by this at all, as our ministry, especially our Ark Encounter and Creation Museum, has been misquoted and misrepresented and has seen facts distorted and information deliberately left out by

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, David Klinghoffer speaks with Dr. Ann Gauger, biologist and Director of Science Communication for Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture, about her recent article “The Transcendental Treasury of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness” at EvolutionNews.org. These abstract concepts don’t derive from the material world, yet we feel impoverished without them; they’re foundations of a life worth living. Materialistic evolutionary explanations for truth, beauty, and goodness fall flat. Some of them even reduce them to mere illusion. It takes a designer who knows truth, beauty, and goodness to explain what we

Think of all the jobs that our good working sense of smell fulfills. First, the nose detects a chemical—the source of the scent. It distinguishes that scent from literally billions of others. Our sense of smell even gauges the strength of the scent. Finally, the sense rapidly scans memories of past smells to interpret the odor’s level of pleasure or toxicity or something in between. Human engineers would need a large lab full of… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID The Future, Andrew McDiarmid talks to Dr. Ann Gauger, a senior research scientist at Biologic Institute and co-author with Dr. Douglas Axe of a new paper recently published in the journal BIO-COMPLEXITY that probes the limits of evolutionary optimization. Gauger explains how she and Axe tested popular hypotheses for protein origins and discovered that while mutation and selection can improve the proficiency of good designs through small adjustments, they seem unable to convert fortuitous selectable activities into good designs.

By Ken Ham In the fight to protect freedom of religion and conscience and the free exercise of religion in America, it seems there’s often bad news. So I thought I’d share some good news with you to encourage you that the fight isn’t over yet and to urge you to continue standing and fighting for our freedoms. Here’s the good news: the state of South Carolina has recently allowed faith-based foster care agencies to abide by their religious convictions and purpose and place children with Christian, church-going families only. An Obama-era regulation barred faith-based and federally funded foster care

The junk DNA paradigm has proven to be an ill-founded icon of evolution. We’ve witnessed its pet sub-theories systematically debunked as we learn more and more about how creatures’ DNA systems work. And now one of the pet darlings of junk DNA speculation, the alleged useless nature of introns (intervening noncoding pieces of genes), has also been tossed in the evolutionary trash heap. When scientists first… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham The state of New York has been in the news recently for a horrifying reason. Governor Andrew Cuomo has just signed into law what’s euphemistically called the “Reproductive Health Act.” The New York State Senate passed the Reproductive Health Act (RHA) the evening of the anniversary (January 22) of the tragic Roe v. Wade decision of 1973 that legalized abortion across the US. This act legalized abortion (the murder of children—child sacrifice, I would call it) up until birth for “all factors — physical, emotional, psychological, familial, and the woman’s age—relevant to the wellbeing of the patient.”

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Andrew McDiarmid continues his conversation with historian of science Michael Keas about Keas’ new ISI book Unbelievable: 7 Myths About the History and Future of Science and Religion. In chapter 4 of the work Keas explodes the myth that Giordano Bruno was a martyr for science, as science popularizers such as Neil DeGrasse Tyson make him out to be. Bruno was indeed burned at the stake in 1600 for disagreeing with the Church — which Keas heartily agrees was a bad move on the Church’s part. But Bruno was executed

Well, you could experience all of this and more alongside popular AiG dinosaur sculptor, adventurer, and singer/songwriter Buddy Davis during a Living Passages tour of Alaska, June 23–28, 2019. Not only will you explore the great outdoors in the “Last Frontier,” but you’ll also enjoy times of worship and teaching with my good friend Buddy.

This time they tackle two golden oldies and a kicker: (1) that the West suffered a thousand-year “Dark Ages” after the fall of the Roman Empire, (2) that the Europeans from this period believed in a flat earth, and — the kicker! — that Christianity was responsible for both errors. Keas asks, if

By Ken Ham Here at Answers in Genesis, we have a heart for children—we want to equip the next generation to think biblically, know how to defend the Christian faith, trust the message of the gospel, and understand how to effectively witness to unbelievers. So, we worked hard to produce world-class children’s curriculum and resources. And one of those great resources, our Vacation Bible School (VBS) program, allows you to reach children in your church and your community with the message of biblical authority and the gospel. I want to encourage churches who put on an annual Vacation Bible School,

By Ken Ham January isn’t usually a time we typically think about the resurrection of Christ—we usually do that in the spring, around Easter season. But the resurrection impacts our lives as Christians every single day. It’s Christ’s victory over the grave that gives us as believers a living hope! So, it’s something we should celebrate each and every day. The Apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 15:14–22: And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain, and your faith is in vain. . . . For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ

By Ken Ham During his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus told his followers to use discernment when sharing truth and not “give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs [swine], lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you” (Matthew 7:6 ESV). This means we are to share the gospel but, if and when it becomes obvious the gospel is not welcome and is just being trampled on, we’re to move on and find others who are ready to listen. Some Christians use this as an excuse to avoid engaging with atheists—after all, they’ll
