By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Sarah Chaffee interviews German paleo-entomologist Günter Bechly on the Cambrian explosion, the relatively sudden appearance of new body plans in the fossil record an estimated 550 million years ago. Dr. Bechly explains how the Cambrian explosion has been challenged by non-experts with an anti-ID bias, yet remains very much a real event in the opinion of specialists in the field — and with the continuing failure of Darwinian explanations, a strong source of evidential support for intelligent design.

By Ken Ham Over the past several months a wide variety of Christian films have been shown in theaters, including the 3D movie Genesis: Paradise Lost, a special anniversary showing of Is Genesis History?, the nature documentary The Riot and the Dance (which is back in theaters April 19), Samson, and more. It’s exciting to see so many excellent Christian films doing well in theaters, and we’re pleased to announce another film, Like Arrows, is coming to select theaters May 1 and 3 from our friends at FamilyLife. <!– –> …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Ken Ham Last weekend in Lynchburg, Virginia, the Red Letter Christians hosted a seminar, “Red Letter Revival: A Revival of Jesus & Justice.” The idea behind this conference “is to show white conservative Christians . . . and society that believers can be evangelical and care about the environment, the poor and the immigrant.” According to their website, their mission is to mobilize believers “to live out Jesus’ counter-cultural teachings.” They are committed (as their name implies) to doing, first and foremost, what Jesus said (the “red letters” of the Bible). Now, this movement has something right—we are called

By Ken Ham Increasingly, Christian colleges are facing LGBT issues head-on. As our western cultures redefine “sex” and “gender” to include “gender identity” and “sexual orientation,” Christian schools that think biblically on this issue are wrestling with how to live faithfully to God’s Word while operating in a culture that is radically opposed to Scripture. A recent NPR article highlighted this tension and how some Christian professors, counselors, and colleges are dealing with this matter and the legal challenges that are certainly on the horizon, including the possibility of colleges losing their tax-exempt status and federal funding. A senior chaplain

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, podcaster and Forbes contributor Jerry Bowyer concludes a conversation with John West about the intelligent design documentary film Revolutionary. They discuss German paleontologist Günter Bechly, who changed his mind about Darwinism after reading a book by the main protagonist of the film, Michael Behe. West also shares a fascinating postscript to that story. And West and Bowyer go on to discuss an upcoming Discovery Institute film, Human Zoos, which explores Darwin-inspired scientific racism in the early 20th century.

By Ken Ham The fossil record shows a great deal of diversity among post-Flood humans (scientists haven’t found any pre-Flood humans as of yet). Some of this diversity is seen in skull shape. Many ancient humans had much thicker brow ridges than we do today. Evolutionary scientists have tried to explain why humans lost these more robust faces. Their newest story—social communication. Other hypotheses for a physical reason for human brow structure didn’t stand up to the researchers’ computer modeling, so they finally landed on a social explanation for the change in faces. They concluded, early humans bore prominent brow

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Michael Flannery, historian of science and emeritus professor from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, discusses a little known dustup among Charles Darwin, Alfred Russel Wallace, and the great geologist Charles Lyell. Wallace, the co-discoverer of the theory of evolution by natural selection, eventually concluded that an overruling intelligence must be involved in the history of life. Scandalized, Darwin wrote to Lyell seeking support for his purely materialistic account of evolution. Lyell’s response may surprise you.

A team of astronomers recently concluded that a nearby spheroidal galaxy, designated as NGC1052-DF2, contains very little, if any, dark matter.1,2 Since Big Bang scientists use dark matter to explain how galaxies formed, this poses a potential problem for naturalistic views. The galaxy in question, estimated to be about 65 million light-years away, has roughly the same volume as our own Milky Way galaxy, but it&r… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Shortly before he finished his course, in 1670, he heard a sermon which changed his life. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
