Did you know that animals have genetic switches? These are regulatory regions of DNA that control the genes. Scientists have noticed that dramatic things can happen when a genetic switch is mutated. For instance, a mutated genetic switch can dramatically alter the appearance of stickleback fish, or generate a great variety of coat colours in animals. Veterinary researcher Dr Jean Lightner has suggested that God may have created genetic switches to facilitate variation, the switches having been created with a propensity to mutate without negatively affecting other traits. Modifications to genetic switches are not examples of ‘evolution in action’, even

By Creation Moments How did Noah have sons and build the Ark when he was 500 years old? Today, scientists can measure a marked decline in mental abilities even in a healthy 50 year old man. Undoubtedly there are several factors, with God behind each of them. However, one of the answers appears to be nutrition. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham As many of you may know the founding chairman of the board of our creation apologetics ministry 35 years ago came from England: Professor (“Prof”) John Rendle-Short. The Lord used my good friend Prof to burden me for ministry in the UK, and Prof pleaded with me (nearly 30 years ago) to travel to England and help reach the English church and the nation with the creation/gospel message. This resulted in the founding of an affiliated ministry in that country, which later changed its name to Answers in Genesis when it became a sister organization of our

What does a cow have in common with a compass needle? The answer is that both of them ‘know’ the orientation of the earth’s magnetic field. No, this isn’t crackpot science. In 2008, the prestigious journal, the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA, published research documenting how cows grazing in a field have a tendency to align themselves with the earth’s magnetic field. And this phenomenon isn’t just limited to cows; many animals including deer, birds, turtles, bats, and even some bacteria, can sense the earth’s magnetic field for alignment or navigation. The fact that so many living

We are commonly told that similarities between living things prove that they are related by evolution, but did you know that many similarities found in nature defy evolution? Take for example the marsupial mouse and the placental mouse. These creatures are remarkably similar, but according to evolutionists they did not inherit this startling similarity from a common ancestor. Instead, we are told, ‘evolution’ achieved the same design in both creatures, independently. They call this ‘convergence’ because evolution has supposedly converged on, or arrived at, a similar looking outcome. But ‘convergence’ is really just a word used to try to explain

By Creation Moments When a honeybee finds a good source of food, she returns to the hive to tell fellow bees where it is. Her dance tells nest mates the direction of the source from the nest and how far away it is. Researchers have long puzzled over how the bee knows the distance she has traveled. Several theories have been proposed, but until now, none have been proven. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Creation Moments Scientists have discovered that seemingly purposeless behaviors among leaf cutting ants actually serve an important function. Leaf cutting ants cut green leaves into pieces that they can carry back to the nest. As they cut a leaf, they vibrate, creating an effect like an electric knife. Since they can cut the leaves without vibrating, it would seem to have no purpose. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments

By Ken Ham In a new Big Think video, Bill Nye, TV’s “the Science Guy,” states, “You can’t tell somebody what to do . . . ” and then proceeds to tell us all what to do. Later on in the short video defending abortion, he states that he wants to “encourage you to not tell women what to do,” but through the whole video clip he is telling women what to do—that they should abort (murder, really) a baby if they want to. It appears that Bill Nye, ever since his debate with me at the Creation Museum last

By Ken Ham In a culture that is rapidly becoming more and more anti-Christian and anti-God, it’s more vital than ever that we reach out with the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We need to challenge our culture with the truth of God’s Word and the authority of the Scriptures over our thinking and our choices. This is our passion at AiG. We train and equip the church to stand on the authority of God’s Word, answer the skeptical questions of this age, and proclaim the gospel with authority. And we couldn’t do any of this without

By Ken Ham On October 7, I’m privileged to be speaking once again at Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California (not too far from Los Angeles). Pastor Greg Laurie has invited me to speak in his pulpit several times over 20 years, and I encourage our supporters in Southern California to mark the date of Wednesday (evening), October 7 on their calendars and come to hear me speak—plus also get an update on the exciting Ark Encounter project. Many of you will recognize Pastor Laurie’s name. He is now holding evangelistic outreaches around the country, often in large football and

By Ken Ham In his letters, the Apostle Paul sometimes thanks churches and individuals for their help in spreading the gospel by contributing to his ministry and meeting the needs of others. By giving toward Paul’s ministry, they were partnering with him in accomplishing God’s work. Paul was extremely grateful for the help and generosity of these brothers and sisters. Well, like Paul, I am very thankful to the Lord for those who have come alongside Answers in Genesis and have invested in us so that we can encourage and equip the church around the world. We couldn’t do what
