By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Michael Denton explores a “miraculous convergence of properties” for life. Denton is both a medical doctor and a PhD biochemist, and now the author of the new book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Sunlight That Make Us Possible (ebook available here). He lets his astonishment flow freely in this interview with host Sarah Chaffee, with topics ranging from the light of the sun to key chemicals here on earth. Taken together, it’s “an astonishing coincidence. … Science has discovered the fine-tuning… it’s not in doubt.… I’m blown away

By Ken Ham Last week we held our annual Answers for Pastors and Christian Leaders conference. Hundreds of pastors and their families joined us and packed Legacy Hall at the world-class Creation Museum to get equipped with answers for the skeptical questions of the age. The conference ran from Tuesday through Thursday and featured Dr. John MacArthur along with me and numerous other Answers in Genesis speakers. Dr. MacArthur spoke twice for the conference. On Tuesday, he spoke about the Clarity of Scripture, reminding us that God’s Word means what it says. …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Ken Ham One of our staff members was chatting about bus tours to visit the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum and received the response, “That sounds great! But what else is there to do in Kentucky?” Well, today is National Kentucky Day so I thought I would highlight some of the many things to do in Kentucky, in addition to our two world-class Christian themed attractions. Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington. We’ve taken our grandkids here a number of times. If you love horses, this is the place to go for everything equine. You’ll enjoy meeting thoroughbred legends, seeing

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID The Future from the vault, Discovery Institute senior fellows David Berlinski and Michael Denton, both long-time critics of neo-Darwinism, discuss their primary objections to neo-Darwinian theory. For Berlinski, a mathematician and author of The Deniable Darwin, the problem is quantitative and methodological. For Denton, a geneticist and author of the new Discovery Institute Press book Children of Light: The Astonishing Properties of Light that Make Us Possible, the problem is empirical.

By Ken Ham At the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter, we have the tremendous opportunity to reach well over a million people a year with the life-changing gospel message. People visit from all over the globe and from a variety of cultures and backgrounds. On Labor Day 2018, a group visited the Creation Museum from a church of the Deaf in Southern California. They toured the museum with a volunteer ASL interpreter. What made this particularly interesting was the group consisted of people who needed the ASL translated into Korean and Japanese sign languages. At one point, they met Tim

By Ken Ham When was the last time you let your pastor and his family know that you appreciate them? As many pastors will tell you, being a pastor is an intense, difficult calling (serving in ministry always is) that requires hard work and sacrifice. Well, today is considered Pastor Appreciation Day in the US—the perfect day to let your pastor know that he is appreciated and loved by you and the rest of the congregation. Here are some ways (in addition to kind words) you can show your appreciation: Write a note. Sit down and write a handwritten note

By Ken Ham Now that we’re into the fall season, Christmas will be here before we know it. And our grounds crew at both the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum are already hard at work turning the grounds into a Christmas wonderland of lights. All of this is in preparation to welcome tens of thousands of guests for ChristmasTime at the Ark Encounter and ChristmasTown at the Creation Museum, November 23–December 30 (closed Christmas Eve and Christmas Day). These two free Christmas events are now a tradition for many families, and the number of visitors keeps growing each year.

By Ken Ham I came across this news item and groaned as I read it. A small wooden sign hanging just above a fire extinguisher in the cafeteria of a Maryland elementary school simply reads: “Give us this day our daily bread.” Sounds rather innocent, doesn’t it? You wouldn’t think that it would generate any controversy. But the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) sent a letter to the school district requesting its removal because they claim the sign violates the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. The elementary school has a student population of over 400, and apparently one parent

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, guest host Robert J. Marks talks with Dr. Winston Ewert about Ewert’s groundbreaking new hypothesis challenging Darwin’s common descent tree of life. The new model is based on the well-established technique of repurposing software code in different software projects. Ewert, a senior researcher at Biologic and the Evolutionary Informatics Lab, describes the nested hierarchical pattern of life and how any credible theory of life’s origin and diversity must explain it. He then describes how Darwin’s basic theory fits, and doesn’t fit, the pattern, and the various ancillary mechanisms invoked to

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future we hear part two of a panel discussion on “The Danger of Totalitarian Science,” held at the July 2018 FreedomFest in Las Vegas. This discussion followed a screening there of the film Human Zoos, written and directed by Dr. John West. In this second episode, Discovery Institute Senior Fellow George Gilder raises concerns about artificial intelligence — but not the usual economic ones. He’s more concerned about the thinking underlying some of the more ambitious attempts at AI — and how it would tend to turn the whole world into

By Ken Ham Here at Answers in Genesis, we don’t like to address controversial topics or hot button issues. (I say this tongue-in-cheek, of course!) That’s why the theme for this spring’s Answers for Women’s conference is Sacred: Embracing God’s Design for Sexuality. We’re never afraid to speak to the issues of our day, starting with God’s Word as the foundation. We want women at this year’s conference to walk away with a newfound boldness to share the truth of God’s Word with their family and friends. This conference, taking place April 5–6, 2019, at the Ark Encounter, will apply

By Ken Ham Earlier this year in Alaska, the Downtown Hope Center (DHC), a religiously affiliated, private non-profit organization that provides numerous services to Anchorage’s homeless population, became embroiled in a religious freedom and attorney-client lawsuit filed by the Anchorage Equal Rights Commission (AERC). AERC attempted to silence DHC’s attorney Kevin Clarkson and his law firm, Brena, Bell & Clarkson (BBC), from communicating with media outlets regarding the Center’s case. After local news published stories about the case in which Clarkson was quoted, the AERC brought charges against his firm for violating local speech ordinances, forcing him to withdraw from

The inclination of some evolutionists to project God-like powers onto nature is becoming more prominent in scientific literature.
