By Ken Ham We are pleased to announce several new Facebook Live programs while our Creation Museum and Ark Encounter are temporarily closed due to the current COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation. It’s a unique, new form of outreach that our attractions will be offering over the coming days. 10 A.M. As I teased on Answers News yesterday, Roger Patterson of our staff will be doing some fascinating science experiments for kids (and adults, too) Monday through Friday at 10 a.m. (ET). This Facebook Live program will be a great opportunity for children, homeschool families, and “stuck at home” families to learn

Evolutionary scientists announced the discovery of what they claim are the oldest green-algae fossils—which look remarkably like modern, living seaweeds. The millimeter-sized, multicellular plant fossils were found in China in rocks claimed to be over one billion years old.1 A trio of paleontologists from Virginia Tech, Chinese Academy of Sciences in Nanjing and University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, B… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham In a recent news release from North Carolina State University (NCSU), the first-ever report of dinosaur cartilage cells having been discovered was announced. Several bones, including juvenile skull bones from the herbivorous duck-billed dinosaur Hypacrosaurus, were found in the Upper Cretaceous (Campanian) Two Medicine Formation of northern Montana, conventionally dated between 83–72 million years ago. In many juvenile animals, and in humans (up to late teens or early twenties), parts of the skull contain cartilage, which eventually calcifies and fuses into the bone. In many juvenile animals, and in humans (up to late teens or early twenties),

By Ken Ham We have some new residents at Ararat Ridge Zoo, our zoo at the Ark Encounter. We have a wide variety of animals, including Tibetan yaks, kangaroos (and even a kangaroo walk-through so guests can interact with these remarkable creatures), camels, llamas, ostriches, emus, and more. Well, some much-anticipated arrivals have now made their appearance and are on display for our guests to enjoy . . . Hoffmann’s Sloths (Choloepus hoffmanni)! Other zoos have the same animals, but the Ark Encounter offers teaching from the foundation of God’s Word! As …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Ken Ham A recent news item caught my eye. It stated that the soldiers of Turtle ants show that evolution can go in reverse. This might seem like a startling announcement until you look closely at what they observed and reported. The researchers were somewhat surprised to learn that this size variation almost perfectly correlates to the width of the tunnels these ants live in. There are over 100 species of Turtle ants of the genus Cephalotes. They mostly live in the trees of tropical areas all over the world. Ten of these species have no soldier ants (basically

By Ken Ham A recent news item from the Seattle Times mentioned the passing of a comprehensive new sex-education bill which would enact a new K-12 curriculum beginning in the 2022–2023 school year. The bill, which had already passed the Washington State Senate, also passed by a vote of 56–40 in the State house, but with the House’s modifications that will need to go back to the Senate. It is expected that Governor Jay Inslee will sign the bill into law when it reaches his desk. This new curriculum will actually be phased in a year earlier in the 2021–2022

By Michael J. Behe On this episode of ID the Future, host Andrew McDiarmid and biochemist Michael Behe discuss the pandemic coronavirus known as COVID-19. The two move through a series of questions, some straightforward, others more speculative. What is a virus and where did this one come from? Why is it so much worse than other coronavirus strains? What sort of evolution is involved here? Does the human species have any ancient, shared genetic relationship with viruses? And why are there viruses in the first place?

By Kirk Durston On this episode of ID the Future, Kirk Durston, a biophysicist focused on identifying high-information-density parts of proteins, completes a three-part series on three categories of science: experimental, inferential, and fantasy science. Fantasy science makes inferential leaps so huge that virtually none of it is testable, either by the standards of experimental science or by those of the historical sciences, which reason to the best explanation by process of elimination. One example of fantasy science, according to Durston, is the multiverse. As he insists, an imaginative story largely untethered from evidence and testing but told using math

By Ken Ham Do you feel like we’re living in uncharted territory? Some people are fearful right now. Others are panicking. Some think the world is coming to an end. we have to navigate through circumstances that, from a human perspective, can be stressful, emotionally draining, and even devastating at times. But I’m a Christian. What does that mean in times like these? Should I be panicking or fearful? It’s true, we have to live in this fallen world with the consequences of sin and the curse. And we have to navigate through circumstances that, from a human perspective, can

Astronomers have discovered a Jupiter-sized extrasolar planet (exoplanet) orbiting so close to its host star that it is “perilously close” to the distance where it can be torn apart by gravitational forces.1-3 Astronomers call these planets “hot Jupiters” because they are rather large planets with masses comparable to that of Jupiter, and their nearness to their host stars causes them to … More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, biophysicist and philosopher Kirk Durston continue their discussion of three types of science–(1) experimental science, (2) inferential science, and (3) fantasy science. In this second of three episodes, Durston recaps the three types but focuses on inferential science. He explains how it involves, in the historical sciences, abductive reasoning (inference to the best explanation), and he explains how such reasoning can be used as we consider the best explanation for the origin of biological information, and in such a way that it is rooted in observation.

By Kirk Durston On this episode of ID the Future, biophysicist and philosopher Kirk Durston discusses his recent article series about three types of science — (1) experimental science, which is generally very trustworthy, with some exceptions; (2) inferential science, which can be trustworthy but often takes huge leaps into the doubtable and dodgy; and (3) fantasy science, which is essentially science fiction masquerading as actual science. In this first of three episodes, Durston focuses on experimental science. Such science is, at its best, reproducible and verifiable. Durston says he has yet to find a true conflict between experimental, reproducible

Cichlid fish are a top biological model for the study of diversification because of their unique ability to adapt to a wide range of lake and river environments. They also produce a startling array of unique traits. For creation scientists, they are particularly interesting because they provide an opportunity to illustrate how creatures are able to track their environments and respond accordingly to produce traits that allow them to succeed… More… …read more Source: icr.org
