Contrary to the well-known intelligent-design claim that some biological systems are so complex that they must have been designed, botanist and environmental scientist Alexander Williams has now described a new concept that shows all aspects of life point to intelligent design.   ‘This concept is simpler, and broader in its application, than Behe’s concept of irreducible complexity’, Williams says, ‘and it applies to all of life, not just to some of it.’   Writing in the latest issue of the Journal of Creation, Williams outlines the biological concept of autopoiesis, a term that literally means ‘self-making’. Autopoiesis refers to the [More]

By Ken Ham It’s long been believed the great Inca civilization never left behind any written records. But what if that’s just because we couldn’t recognize their writing? A fascinating new study reveals the Incas did leave a written history behind—we just didn’t recognize it. This civilization was complex and absolutely massive, stretching from modern-day Ecuador to Chile during the 1400s. They built a system of roads and woven bridges to connect the land, built ziggurats that still astound engineers today, and left behind a bevy of artifacts for us to puzzle over. One such group of artifacts is known [More]
By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, philosopher J. P. Moreland explains from his new book Scientism and Secularism: Learning to Respond to a Dangerous Ideology how scientism helped bring about Darwinism’s current widespread acceptance. Ironically, the process involved some scientists who dismiss theology … doing theology, and doing it not very well. Moreland says this is just one of the reasons that it’s rational to buck the consensus on evolution. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

We are constantly bombarded with fantastic claims about the past that are touted as scientific. The scientific method—a way to study the natural world—will help us better analyze these claims. Why should everyone know the scientific method? What role does the method play in studying historical events or unobserved speculations?   Listen: The Scientific Method | The Institute for Creation Research

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, author, speaker, and radio talk show host Greg Koukl, president of Stand to Reason, talks through a review of Heretic: One Scientist’s Journey from Darwin to Design. It’s the autobiographical story, co-written by Jonathan Witt, of distinguished Finnish bioengineer Matti Leisola. His whole perspective on science changed when he asked himself the question Koukl likes to ask: “Do you want the right answers, or do you demand the right kinds of answers — those answers that comport with naturalism, materialism, and physicalism?” Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham The ice age, a time of wooly mammoths, saber-toothed cats, and glaciers, may seem like a great mystery. But it’s not a mystery when we start with the history found in God’s Word. Indeed, that history actually explains how an ice age is even possible—in a secular worldview it’s very difficult to explain one ice age, let alone the many that secularists believe in. Now, you may be wondering what the Bible says about the ice age. Well, the Bible doesn’t specifically tell us there was an ice age, but we can observe today that there was [More]
Evidence for creation is seen in both the sudden origin1 of spiders, as demonstrated in the fossil record, and their amazing design.2 All spiders are created with four pairs of walking legs. Spider fossils are rare. Only about a thousand fossil species have been described worldwide. But they always display their iconic eight legs, remarkably complex eyesight organs and are, as creationists predict, 100% spiders. The Ju… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Salamander-like footprints preserved in sandstone have long fascinated Grand Canyon hikers and rafters. Insights from a new study of the track patterns intensify an old trackway mystery. But Noah’s Flood can help solve this mystery. It boils down to this: How could a four-footed track maker leave so many details of its foot if it was walking on windblown sand dunes? Footprints in dry sand leave shapeless divots … More… …read more Source: icr.org     
By Ken Ham One wonders if I’m going to be allowed to remain on Twitter anymore, as the platform is increasingly punishing those who dare to say anything against the current LGBT ideology. I certainly don’t attack a person, but we do judge their worldview against the clear teaching of Scripture. A recent news item reported that Twitter has updated its terms and user agreement to include a ban on “misgendering” and “deadnaming”—basically, refusing to allow Twitter users to make biologically—and biblically!—correct statements. “Misgendering” refers to when someone uses the “wrong” pronoun to describe a transgender person (i.e., calling a [More]

By Ken Ham Although we’re based out of the United States, we have offices around the world (Peru, Mexico, UK/Europe, Canada, and Australia/New Zealand) and enjoy partnerships with apologetics ministries in many other nations. It’s a blessing that God allows us to reach people around the world with the gospel and the biblical authority message. And recently one of our scientists, geologist Dr. Andrew Snelling, had the privilege of traveling to Peru with AiG–Peru and AiG–Mexico and speaking in ten universities. Dr. Snelling, AiG–Mexico Director Joe Owen, and Creous and Elizabeth Ramdath of AiG–Peru …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG [More]
By Ken Ham Christmas is a time set aside to specially focus on Christ and his incarnation as a baby in Bethlehem. But it’s easy for us to get distracted by all the trappings of Christmas, and it’s especially easy for our kids to focus on the presents they’re anticipating, not on Christ and why he came. To help the children in your church (or home) focus on Christ and dive deeper into why he came, we’re offering Download free Sunday school lessons about the real meaning of Christmas. This free digital download includes: Teacher guide with introduction, Bible lesson, [More]
By Ken Ham Research has shown that two-thirds of young people in US churches are walking away from the church by the time they reach college age, with very few returning. Why? Our own carefully conducted nationwide research shows clearly that it’s largely because of a lack of apologetics teaching, which leads to doubting God’s Word and the Christian faith in the face of secular attacks. Now we have a unique Sunday school curriculum, Answers Bible Curriculum, that’s designed to combat this! But sometimes it’s difficult to convince pastors and other Christian leaders to make the switch to ABC. Often [More]
The evolution of the eye has always been a dilemma for evolutionists from Darwin’s time to the present. Although Darwin, Richard Dawkins and other evolutionists have tried to explain how an eye could evolve, their solutions are clearly unsatisfactory. Many kinds of eyes exist, but no progression of eye designs from simple to complex can be produced in the natural or fossil world. Furthermore, the simplest ‘eye’, the eyespot, is not an eye but pigmented cells used for phototaxis; yet even it requires an enormously complex mechanism in order to function as a vision system.   Read More: Did eyes [More]
The following brief web article was adapted from the section on alleged ‘bad designs’ in Dr Sarfati’s new book By Design, which is subtitled, Evidence for nature’s Intelligent Designer—the God of the Bible.   The prostate is a walnut-sized gland in male mammals that secretes a clear, slightly alkaline liquid that comprises about 10–30% of the volume of semen. Thus it is a vital musculoglandular organ for reproduction. Some critics of creation/intelligent design complain that it is badly designed because the urethra (the tube through which urine flows out) passes through it, so if the prostate enlarges, it restricts urine [More]
Francis Crick and James Watson have used the occasion of the 50th anniversary of their discovery of the DNA double helix as an excuse to attack belief in a Creator.1   wikimedia commons Francis Crick and James Watson. Together with Maurice Wilkins they received the Noble Prize in 1962 for their discovery of the double helix structure of DNA back in 1953. A recent UK news article about the Nobel-Prize–winning pair claimed ‘scientific discoveries have a habit of offending religious susceptibilities’, and pointed out, ‘Watson and Crick are both outspoken atheists.’1   These comments attempt to reinforce the old canard [More]
By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, bioethicist Wesley J. Smith speaks with host Dean Abbott about the arrival of human cloning. While significant barriers remain that will slow its development as far as human-cloned babies and adults, ethical constraints still depend only on scientists’ restraint — a “thin reed to stand on.” Human cloning research is underway even now, under cover of scientific jargon to obscure what’s going on, Smith says.
