By Creation Moments One highly qualified British creationist scientist related to an audience how another scientist has approached him, to help with a course he thought their university should run, about the problems associated with evolution. My friend said he would be happy to help. A few days later, the other scientist returned sheepishly to my friend. He would not, after all, be able to run the course. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
Want a family vacation that combines hands-on STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) activities, robotics, the Creation Museum, stargazing, and family fun together? Look no farther than Ci 5.0 Family STEM Camp with our friends at Camp Infinity. If you have a young person in your family who loves STEM, you’ll want to bring them to Ci’s Family STEM Camp. The camp director, Dan Wooster (who also serves on the Answers in Genesis board), has found that many parents don’t understand the world of STEM that has perhaps captured their young person. These parents want to better connect with

Editor’s Note: First published in St. Louis MetroVoice 5, no. 3 (March 1995). The evolutionist’s notion that man evolved by chance from ape-like creatures is largely based upon certain anatomical similarities between apes and men. Being convinced that such similarities “prove” an evolutionary relationship, paleoanthropologists have declared certain fossil apes to be particularly “manlike” and, thus, ancestral to man. Similarly, in an effort to fill the gap between apes and men, certain fossil men have been declared to be “apelike” and, thus, ancestral to at least “modern” man. You might say this latter effort seeks to make a “monkey”

Modern advances in computers have taken artificial intelligence to stunning new levels. If computers can learn and think better than we can, will that threaten our humanity? I still remember the day as a 10-year-old boy that I got my first calculator—with memory. I’ve loved computers ever since, creating things using logic. The very first program I created allowed me to play baseball against the computer. While the interface was pretty simple, it helped me understand how well machines follow exact instructions. How times have changed. Back then we were inspired watching Rosie the Robot on The Jetsons

Editor’s Note: First published in St. Louis MetroVoice 5, no. 5 (May 1995). Evolutionism is a belief system based upon the assumption that there is a purely materialistic explanation for the origin of virtually everything that ever has existed or ever will exist. The essential feature of this belief (often called materialism) is that everything in nature arose spontaneously by a process of self-transformation without the necessity of supernatural intervention. Julian Huxley once said, The whole of reality is evolution, a single process of self-transformation (Evolution and Genetics, Simon & Shuster, 1955, p. 278). In today’s public

The wild and woolly world of hybrids is setting evolutionary ideas back on their heels. Species simply don’t arise in the way the evolutionary tree proposes. What do you get . . . when you cross a zebra with a horse? Give up? Why, a zorse, of course! How about crossing a polar bear and a grizzly? If you said “pizzly,” you’re catching on! Do you think I’m joking about these names? Guess again. These are real examples of separate species that can breed and produce unique hybrid babies. Biologists have known about them for a long time,

Anti-Christian, anti-biblical sentiment is increasing across the West. As our culture grows more and more secular, the chasm between what is “Christian” and what is not is becoming more apparent. And those who choose to base their thinking on God’s Word are increasingly being discriminated against, called intolerant and hateful, or even punished for their beliefs. Christians Not Welcome in the Air Force The US Air Force has reportedly suspended a decorated colonel, who was due for a promotion to general, because he did not sign a thank-you note to the same-sex “spouse” of a retiring subordinate.

The traditional evolutionary view predicts mutations in eye development genes as being responsible for the removal of eyes in blind cavefish—as if the loss of genetic information is somehow evidence of forward evolutionary progress. Now even this idea has floundered in light of a new study showing that eye loss in cavefish is mediated by a sophisticated adaptive mechanism involving epigenetics. More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future from the vault, Stephen Meyer is on The Universe Next Door to discuss Thomas Nagel’s controversial book Mind & Cosmos: Why the Materialist Neo-Darwinian Conception of Nature Is Almost Certainly False. Nagel, a leading philosopher of science and a self-described agnostic, tells in his book how he has become disenchanted with the materialist worldview, and how science today leaves fundamental questions unanswered — such as the nature of mind and consciousness. Meyer also discusses the origin of animal body plans and the inference to design. Your browser does not support

By Creation Moments The descendants of Ham, who were cursed, were the Canaanites. Yet when Rahab, a Canaanite, came to faith in the true God, she not only was welcomed to marry a believer, but God included her in the line leading to Christ. The idea of different races, as distinct from different religions, was not much of an issue until 1859 when Charles Darwin published his famous book, On the Origin of Species. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham Racism is a growing problem in America. Various solutions have been proposed and movements started, but the only answer to racism is found in the record of the true history of humans in God’s Word. We are one race biologically—the human race—all descended from Adam and Eve. That’s why we’re all sinners and need a Savior, the Last Adam, Jesus Christ. I’m frequently interviewed by various media and TV programs and am thankful for these opportunities to present truth. While at the National Religious Broadcasters convention this year in Orlando, Florida, I was interviewed by various religious

By Creation Moments Science has an elevated position in Western society. There are those who would try to put Christians down, by saying “You have faith, but I have science”.
