By Ken Ham In just a few weeks here in America, kids will come knocking on our doors—are you ready? Halloween can present a fantastic opportunity to share the saving gospel with your friends and neighbors. And we have special gospel booklets and tracts to help you. A Biblical and Historical Look at Halloween Halloween has its obvious downsides, but we can use this day to share the hope of Christ with others by welcoming trick-or-treaters with some candy (or maybe a healthier snack!) and a gospel booklet. Our A Biblical and Historical Look at Halloween booklets are a great

By kpennock In this episode of ID the Future, geneticist and biochemist Michael Denton reads the beautiful introduction to his new book, The Wonder of Water. He begins at Yosemite’s Bridalveil Fall and explores how water is curiously fine-tuned for life. Indeed, thanks to a unique cluster of properties, water is able to fulfill many roles essential to our living planet. It’s thanks to some of those properties that rivers and streams can leech and carry minerals from rock to various places they’re needed in the biosphere. Water’s unusual properties also make it an ideal medium for our circulatory system.

By Creation Moments Out of more than 30,000 species of spiders, there are three species that make their living through thievery. Several years ago that number was raised from two with the discovery of a tiny, thieving species on the island of Taiwan. The other two species live in South America and are known to steal only silk from the webs of other spiders. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham In August, an anti-AiG letter to the editor appeared in the Lexington Herald-Leader, one of the largest newspapers in Kentucky. This paper frequently prints misinformation and outright lies about Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter, which opened last year. For example, the paper claimed in an editorial on December 11, 2014, that we were building the Ark with “government handouts” from the state of Kentucky. Almost immediately an AiG supporter, who lives just north of our Ark Encounter, fired off his own letter to the editor to refute the claims by the writer,

Trilobites were fascinating invertebrates that inhabited pre-Flood ocean bottoms. They were fossilized when “primitive” life supposedly was just getting started, but the complexity of these animals is unparalleled.

By Ken Ham Lidl, a European budget supermarket chain, is facing backlash for an image found on the blue and white packaging of their Greek foods. The photo shows the famous Anastasis Church in Santorini, Greece. This church sports a small cross on its dome in real life, but this cross has been removed from the packaging image. Photo by Mark Looy of the Anastasis Church that is now in the news. The company claims that by removing the cross they were trying to remain “religiously neutral.” In reality, they were really trying to erase Christianity. Taking a …read more

By Ken Ham It’s exciting to see what God is doing around the world through Answers in Genesis’ ministry outreaches. Most of our supporters are familiar with our domestic outreaches here in America, but did you know we do conferences around the world? In fact in the next two months I’m headed to the UK and Australia for two conferences and other AiG speakers are headed to Bolivia, Columbia, Chile, and Peru before the end of the year. And two of our speakers are just returning from a successful time in Indonesia. <img src="https://assets.answersingenesis.org/img/blogs/ken-ham/2017/09/indonesia-speakers-and-leaders.jpg" alt="David Chakranarayan and Dr. Andrew Snelling

By Creation Moments A few years ago we aired a “Creation Moments” program about how plants seem to have pain and alarm responses similar to humans and animals. Of course, we don’t know if plants have feelings as we know them. But when a plant is injured, it produces a chemical called jasmonic acid. This acid produces a vapor, similar to the jasmine in commercial perfumes, that is sensed by surrounding plants. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham I’m often asked, “When will the Ark Encounter attraction be finished?” My answer? “Never!” You see, we’ve got plans for expansions scheduled out for many years to come. Since we opened July 7, 2016, the Ark has been a beehive of activity with thousands of guests visiting each day, the construction and opening of new exhibits, the East and West villages, new food options, and more. And next up on our to-do list is an expansion of our popular Ararat Ridge Zoo. Located behind the Ark is our family-friendly zoo and petting zoo, which feature red kangaroos,

By Ken Ham We’re excited to announce that the ministry of Answers in Genesis is heading north to Canada! Calvin Smith, an accomplished speaker on creation-apologetics, has joined with AiG to open Answers in Genesis–Canada.

By Creation Moments We all know that we each started out as a single cell in our mother’s womb. Then those cells began to divide and within 21 days we had a working nervous system and a beating heart.

How do other cells know to hook up with each other to make our circulatory system, or form the heart? read more …read more Source: Creation Moments

Recently, secular scientists revealed their speculation of alternate evolutionary histories by studying a protein they supposed existed half a billion years ago.
