By Creation Moments The lowly earthworm is one of the most under-appreciated little creatures on Earth. People probably don’t appreciate the earthworm because it’s not very pretty. Biology textbooks say that the earthworms were among the first simple land creatures to evolve. Well, clearly there hasn’t been much evolution since, and they are not that simple. The earthworm has a well-developed nervous system, a brain and ten hearts! read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Hydraulics are part of our everyday lives. Fluids – such as the brake fluid used in your car – cannot be compressed, so when you step on the brake pedal that fluid can be forced from a cylinder into the braking mechanisms attached to your wheels. All hydraulic machines work in a similar way because the fluid used will flow easily to areas where there is less pressure. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham According to news reports (including on Fox News yesterday), a school district in Lincoln, Nebraska has recently given its teachers a handout to promote gender inclusiveness in their classrooms. This handout encourages teachers to stop referring to students as “girls and boys” but instead to describe students as a group, with phrases like “calling all readers” or “hey campers.” Instead of separating the children into groups of boys and girls, teachers are being urged to divide the students by things such as whether they prefer milk or juice or perhaps skateboards or bikes, to create classroom …read

By Ken Ham Black holes form the background in many science fiction stories. But black holes are not fictional. A black hole, as you probably know, is so massive and dense that even light cannot escape from its enormous gravity, so it is invisible. Even though we cannot “see” black holes the way we see a star or the moon, there is overwhelming observational evidence that they do exist. Astronomers are able to see the effects of their enormous gravity on other things in space. So if that is the case, why have two secular scientists now claimed that black

By Creation Moments Modern criticism of the Bible began in the late 1700s and has continued to this day. The usual claim, often from Bible scholars, has been that the Bible is nothing more than error-filled human writings. Before serious excavation work had begun in the mid-1800s, scholars felt free to consider lack of evidence as proof that people, cities, and even whole nations mentioned in the Bible never existed. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Discovery Institute On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin talks with Dr. Ann Gauger about her criticisms of the PBS video, “There Was No First Human,” that attempts to show how evolutionary change happens. The video makes the claim that evolution has been a continuous and gradual process–a claim that many evolutionary biologists would disagree with, and that is not supported by evidence from the fossil record.

Jurassic mammals made headlines recently, as Chinese paleontologists described six tiny skeletons comprising three new species. The squirrel-like fossils break the long-held idea that most so-called “dinosaur-era” mammals resembled shrews. These newfound mammals look like they lived in trees—not underground like shrews. Do the new fossils help evolutionists clarify their story for the origin of mammals, or do they crank more twists into evolution’s troubled saga? More… …read more Read more here: icr.org

By Ken Ham The Washington Post recently ran a news article on a young lady named Kelsey Beckham who defines herself as “agender”or “non-binary,” rather than male or female. Kelsey says, I don’t want to be a girl wearing boy’s clothes, nor do I want to be a girl who presents as a boy . . . I just want to be a person who is recognized as a person. That’s how I’m most comfortable. I’m just a person wearing people clothes, who likes to look like myself and have others see me how I see me. The reporter sympathizes
