Cactus flowers have a striking range in size—they can be smaller than a grain of rice or longer than a school ruler. Such variation points to how God designed living things with room to adapt while also placing limits on what they can become.
A recent Biology Letters study reports that cactus groups with faster-changing flowers tend to form new species faster.1 Jamie Thompson and Chris Venditti studied flo... More...

Scientists think they may have figured out part of what helps one bird, the pigeon, navigate: its liver.
Can a freezer make life? A recent paper in Chemical Science suggests that freezing and thawing may have helped early “protocells” grow, merge, and trap DNA.1 But the key issue is not whether ice can move molecules around—it’s whether blind physical cycles can build the coded, regulated systems life requires. The evidence shows that ice can sort preexisting parts, but it cannot engineer life.

The ‘selfish gene’ idea is being used to teach evolution. But surely a mindless gene can’t really exhibit selfishness, so what does it mean, and does it really support evolution? Read More
Evolution requires explanation of many complex body parts arising. One of the hardest parts to explain by evolution is the tongue! Read More
Is coevolution a problem for biblical creationists? Read More
What are the different types of ncRNA, and why are these intricate creations important? Read More
It’s claimed that evolution explains everything, so what is the evolutionary explanation for how the T. rex, and other species like it, got those tiny arms?
Your most important organ as an unborn baby is the placenta. This organ forms shortly after fertilization.
These remarkable trees continue to flourish despite the effects of atomic bombing, a resilience that attests to a Designer. Read More
The idea that an unborn baby progresses through supposed evolutionary stages during development has long been debunked. But it’s still taught in textbooks!
To justify abortion, unborn babies are often referred to as “a pregnancy.” But from the moment of fertilization, a genetically unique person is present.
Thousands of remarkably preserved salamander fossils from Inner Mongolia look identical to species alive today. Read More
What if so-called rapid evolution is not a process of building something new, but it simply reveals what was already there? A recent peer-reviewed study in Science reports that certain DNA segments, called supergenes, may help cichlid fish adapt quickly through large chromosomal inversions that preserve sets of traits.1 Conventional scientists say this shows evolution can move faster than expected. A related report from <i... More...</i...
Francis Crick’s central dogma revolutionized biology—but does it tell the whole story? A new framework of sequence and episequence information reveals a richer picture of life. Read More
Millions of Maya are still alive today, but the Y chromosome DNA results suggested they had disappeared. Could this problem be solved?
A chance encounter with a rare shark migration off the Gold Coast leads to a fascinating dive into the extraordinary engineering behind the hammerhead’s iconic shape. Read More
What if new species could appear in just a few thousand years? A recent study reports that many new plankton species showed up quickly after the supposed Chicxulub impact—a large asteroid event believed to have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. Some of the plankton appeared in less than 2,000 years.1 The study claims this shows fast evolution. But the evidence fits better with rapid change within created kinds, not th... More...
Elephant tusks show evidence of selection pressure, but this is fundamentally different from evolution. Read More
Seals were once mercilessly hunted for economic benefit. The more we learn of these special marine animals, the more we can appreciate the unique wisdom in their design. Read More
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek is credited with the first description of bacteria in 1676. What did he believe?
New research on the human genome reveals staggering multi-dimensional complexity that deepens the case for design. Read More
The longevity of giant tortoises, bowhead whales, and Greenland sharks presents major challenges to evolutionary theory through Haldane’s Dilemma, the waiting time problem, and Peto’s Paradox. Read More

A small and interesting plant-eating reptile called Lystrosaurus is in the news recently because it was found to have laid eggs (as reptiles do). So what’s interesting about that? Well, conventional scientists claim Lystrosaurus is a 250-million-year-old mammal ancestor called a synapsid.1 They see this discovery as an exciting evolutionary development in the process of reptiles evolving into mammals. But a cl... More...
New species are often presented as proof that life is evolving. But they instead show how life was designed to diversify from the start. A recent deep-sea study reports 24 new amphipod species and even proposes a new “superfamily.”1 Conventional scientists say this discovery adds a new branch to the tree of life. Yet the real issue with this is not naming new groups—it is explaining the species’ origin. Th... More...
