By Ken Ham We are constantly hearing from local business owners, as well as some in the media, that the One of Dan’s customers posted the following to Facebook: “After a great day at the Creation Museum, eating here was the ‘icing on the cake.’ What a great experience! The food was amazing—best meatloaf ever! And food was hot, not lukewarm. I loved the chicken, the ribs, real mashed potatoes, green beans with ham and onions, cranberry salad, cheesecakes—delicious! “From the moment we arrived and the owner spoke to us on the bus and prayed for our meal, we knew

The beautiful glossy rainbow weevil from the Philippines is unique for the spectacular rainbow colored spots on its thorax and forewing. These circular spots produce all the colors, and in the same order, as those found in a rainbow in a series of successive rings. Many insects exhibit the ability to produce different types of colors, but it’s unusual for one to exhibit such a vast spectrum. Researchers are deep… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham It’s growing increasingly difficult to find family-friendly entertainment the whole family can sit down and enjoy together.

And we’re now offering a selection of their films that AiG staff have reviewed through our online store. These “family, faith, and fun” films are intended to offer your family some choices for entertainment that honors the Lord and will be an encouragement to you. Some of the

Secular cosmologists claim that the universe originated in an explosion 13.8 billion years ago. Some Christians believe this Big Bang is the means God used to create the universe. Is there evidence to support this? How should laypeople respond to the 3 main arguments for the Big Bang? Why should Christians reject the Big Bang? Listen: The Big Bang Is Broken | The Institute for Creation Research
According to the Big Bang origins model, our universe is said to be 13.8 billion years old. But a straightforward reading of the Bible—including historical information and the testimony of the Lord Jesus—confirms a young universe closer to 6,000 years old. How can Christians answer Big Bang claims? Dr. Hebert provides scientific and biblical reasons for a young universe. Listen: Our Young Universe | The Institute for Creation Research

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, host Ira Berkowitz talks with Rabbi Moshe Averick about his recent Times of Israel article, “From the People Who Brought You the Hydrogen Bomb.” Yes, it’s pointed — straight at scientists. It’s about scientists who jump out of their disciplines, taking the place of priests and shamans and pronouncing upon the place of mankind in the universe. It’s about scientists who say we’re nothing, mere specks on a speck of a planet, yet these scientists consider themselves “humanists” in spite of this outlook. Averick is the author of Nonsense of

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future from the vault, physicist Rob Sheldon discusses the BICEP2 Consortium’s apparent discovery of evidence for the inflationary model of the Big Bang, and the annoucement’s impact on questions of cosmic fine-tuning. The consortium later withdrew their claim to have found the first evidence for the primordial “B-mode” polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In part 2 here, Dr. Sheldon explains his questioning of whether the signal detected by BICEP2 was real. Please consider donating to support the IDTF Podcast.

By Ken Ham The vast majority of museums, schools, and other institutions teach science from a naturalistic (really atheistic) perspective. This, of course, includes evolutionary and millions of years teaching. Well, we’re excited to be offering hands-on, full-day science workshops at the Creation Museum that teach science from a foundation of faith in God’s Word and the truth of creation as recorded in Genesis. These workshops are called Explore Days and will build up, rather than tear down, your children’s faith, while they learn about what God has made—and how to defend the Christian faith. They’ve been extremely popular, usually
