By Ken Ham I wanted to share a very exciting nine-minute video with you that offers an update of what is happening with the construction of our life-size Noah’s Ark (south of Cincinnati). After my wife and I returned from our visit with family in Australia, I interviewed one of the project managers for the Ark and our VP of attractions. Even though I have been intimately involved with this project, I gained some fascinating insights into what has gone into the planning of the engineering and architectural work. I was also amazed to see how much work has been

By Ken Ham I wanted to share some good news with you and give you an update to a blog post I wrote in September about a potential ban on teaching creation in Scottish public schools. The Scottish government has decided not to ban teaching creation. According to the Herald Scotland, the head of curriculum unit at the Scottish government’s Learning Directorate said, “I can (therefore) confirm that there are no plans to issue guidance to schools or education authorities to prevent the presentation of creationism, intelligent design or similar doctrines by teachers or school visitors.” This means that teachers

By Ken Ham The Lexington Herald-Leader is one of the major Kentucky newspapers. For years, it has spread untruths and misleading information about Answers in Genesis and our life-size Noah’s Ark project. (The Ark will be built north of the paper’s offices in Lexington.) I suggest that the editors of the Herald-Leader have an anti-Christian agenda. It has resulted in inaccuracies in its stories and editorials concerning the Ark project. The paper constantly denigrates the Christian ministry of AiG and regularly attacks the Ark project in order to undermine it to the general public. Their intolerance of anything Christian is

By Ken Ham Mohave rattlesnake Image credit: by Lvthn13 via Wikimedia Commons If God called His creation “very good,” then why does it include dangerous venomous snakes today? Are secular researchers on the right track as they examine the snake genome in order to find clues about gene evolution in humans? The answer is clear when you start with God’s Word and remember that there are two kinds of science. According to Nature World News, “a new study details the evolution of snakes and how they came to boast a venomous bite, challenging the conventional view of how the species

By Ken Ham For almost all Christians, Christmas is a time set aside to remember and celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. While it’s important to take time all year round to reflect on the precious gift of salvation, Christmas is a great time to specifically celebrate the wonder of the Incarnation, when God became flesh. Well, we have a gift for you that will help you do just that! Have you heard about Answers Conversation? This free weekly program, hosted by my brother, Steve, features a different creation scientist or biblical apologist each week. These

Human rights are not just for humans anymore! You see, according to Reuters, animal rights lawyers recently argued in an Argentinian court that a 29-year-old female orangutan named Sandra was being held unlawfully in the Buenos Aires Zoo. They “argued the ape had sufficient cognitive functions and should not be treated as an object.” The courts recently decided that “the ape [is] a ‘non-human person’ unlawfully deprived of its freedom” and, if

By Ken Ham A study conducted by a group of University of Alabama researchers has been making its way around the Internet, so I wanted to comment on it. This study highlights that the creation/evolution controversy is really a worldview-based battle. This study was an attempt to discover the role of religious belief in the acceptance of evolution. According to the study‘s results, religious persons are far less likely than those who claim to be non-religious to accept evolution, regardless of how much evolutionary education they have. One of the coauthors of the study commented, “Religion is much more important

By Ken Ham We are constantly blessed to hear from people who have been encouraged, challenged, and strengthened by our ministry. We love hearing these testimonies and are always encouraged. Here are a few that we have received via email and Facebook recently: Ken thanks for everything you do! There is nothing more satisfying than having the evidence to back up my faith. I have never found myself in such an environment to be bullied and called names like I am today. I couldn’t care less because I am here to serve The Lord and I won’t be shamed from

By Creation Moments Before the Great Flood of Noah, what did our forefathers see when confronted with a dinosaur? What did dinosaur skin look like? What were their babies like? Biblical history places the creation of the great land living dinosaurs on the same day as man was created. That means that there is little doubt that at least some of the people we read about in the Bible saw dinosaurs. Many modern creationists think that Job’s description of leviathan actually describes some sort of dinosaur. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham Well, after what the airline Virgin Australia did to us this week, I think I should begin writing the book I’ve always threatened to write—Flying Is the Pits! As many of you know, we were recently in Australia to visit our two remaining elderly parents. About 12 hours before we were to leave on Virgin Australia to return to the USA, my wife’s father died suddenly in Australia, necessitating changing our flights to return 10 days later. And what did Virgin Australia do with our change in travel plans? We had traveled over to Australia on premium

By Creation Moments Conifers aren’t bothered by too many insect pests. That’s because the oils that give them that nice pine scent are poisonous. They would be poisonous to the conifer sawfly larva if it digested them, too. But while it munches the pine needles, its body is busy storing the poisonous oils for future defense. The fact that the sawfly not only eats pine needles, but also uses the poisonous oils for defense, poses a difficult problem for evolution which appears to have no solution. read more …read more Read more here: Creation Moments
By Ken Ham The authors of a new book on atheistic living held a contest in which they invited secularists to submit their suggestions for “10 Atheist Non-Commandments.” (By the way—isn’t it interesting that they are doing what the devil has been doing since Genesis 3: trying to counterfeit what God has done?) According to CNN, this contest received 2,800 submissions from 18 different countries. But really, what is the point of atheists writing up a list of non-commandments? What is a “non-commandment” anyway? They have no basis for their moral views other than their own opinions, which can vary

By Ken Ham Bill Nye “the Science Guy” of TV and debate fame has produced a short video that’s on YouTube (and was promoted through various media outlets) supposedly to explain evolution with what’s called Emoji! Now the video has had about 1.3 million views. And you might be surprised when I tell you that I think it would be a good one for you to sit down and watch with your kids—so that you can clearly show them that evolution is just another fairy tale. And Bill Nye makes it so obvious. As you start the video, you …read

By Ken Ham Today (December 27) marks the 21st anniversary of Answers in Genesis. I encourage you to discover how God has blessed this apologetics ministry so mightily since late 1993 (including how He has directed 2.3 million people to our Creation Museum) by reading our ministry’s history and seeing some historical photos on our website. And right there you can read about the recent developments in building a life-size Ark in Northern Kentucky. In a future article, we will give you a glimpse of what is planned for 2015—including new initiatives to proclaim …read more Read more here: Ken
