The evolution of mammals from non-mammals, like the evolution of all other animal groups, has been, and will always be, problematic. English paleontologist Michael Benton stated, “The origin of the Placentalia, the crown group including modern placental mammals and their ancestors, is a much-discussed question.”1 Placental mammals are a group called the Eutheria, which “probably arose during the Creta… More… …read more Source: icr.org

How can a camel go days or even months without a drink of water? What have scientists learned about the amazing design of this water-conserving creature? And more importantly, does such design demand a Designer? Join Eric Lyons as he demonstrates the incredible features of the camel, a wonder of God’s creation.

Honeybees are extremely important as pollinators for much of the food humans depend upon. What happens though, when 1 bee finds a good area of flowers to pollinate? How does this bee inform and provide the directions for the rest of the hive? Join Kyle Butt as he examines the amazing communication of these wonders of Creation.

Butterflies have made science news again, this time in regard to a master gene called WntA: “a combined team of researchers from Cornell University and The George Washington University, has characterized the cis-regulatory evolution of the gene WntA in nymphalid butterflies.”1 Cis-regulatory elements are sections of non-coding DNA which regulate the transcription (the copying of a segment of DNA in… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Over a century ago, evolutionists taught that Neanderthals were sub-human brutes.1 But in the intervening decades, as more research and discoveries have been made, Neanderthals are believed to be fully human, able to interbreed with Homo sapiens. DNA analysis confirms this.2 A recent news article stated, A Swedish scientist [Svante Paabo… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham Breaking news: ancient (“35-million-year-old”) mayflies looked extremely similar to modern-day mayflies! Okay, that might not seem like very big news. From a biblical standpoint, of course mayflies look like mayflies (and they aren’t 35 million years old anyway!). But for those who interpret the evidence with the evolutionary worldview, we have to ask: why are so many of the creatures scientists find preserved in amber virtually identical to their modern-day counterparts? (Consider, for example, mosquitoes filled with blood that look identical to modern mosquitos, tardigrades that remained tardigrades, plant mites that look like plant mites, and …read

Evolutionists recently reported observations about a plant group called the Zygnematophyceae (a class of green algae). They claimed to know more about its evolutionary history. This class of algae has been suggested as the closest evolutionary ancestor of land plants via “algal multicellularity.” Gabriele Meseg-Rutzen of the University of Cologne told PhysOrg, An international… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Fish never learned to walk. Regardless, an evolutionary paleontologist suggested an undocumented scenario of how fish gradually evolved into four-legged creatures (tetrapods) about 400 million years ago. In evolving the ability to walk, the tetrapod limb had to alter considerably both in structure and in orientation, when compared with the tristichopterid fin. New bones appeared,… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham On this blog, I write about many, well, ridiculous statements that people make—and I keep thinking, “surely this is the most ridiculous thing I will ever write about,” but I just keep getting proven wrong! And that’s happening again, this time with a statement from Democratic gubernatorial candidate for Georgia, Stacey Abrams. Heartbeats—Manufactured Sounds? During a campaign event, Abrams stated, “There is no such thing as a heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right …read more Source: Ken Ham AIG

By Ken Ham A new discovery might just change the entire evolutionary timeline (again!). Very tiny fossils—preserved in 3D, rather than squished flat—were recently uncovered of a green algae species almost identical to a modern genus of seaweed called Codium and “surprisingly complex.” Why is that significant? Well, these fossils are from some of the lowest rock layers, making them, in the evolutionary story, older than half a billion years old—half a billion years (during which five mass extinctions are believed to have taken place!) and no “evolution” occurred! How many times have we heard that evolutionists have had to

The majority of zoologists and vertebrate paleontologists believe that birds are actually flying dinosaurs. This even includes the world’s smallest bird, the bee hummingbird of Cuba.

By Ken Ham Do you have Neanderthal DNA in your genome? You might, as (according to one article) many people “living today have a small component of Neanderthal DNA in their genes.” In the evolutionary worldview, this is the result of “hybridization” as different “archaic human lineages” (not just Neanderthal) mixed with humans during the “evolution of our species.” This is all in the science news again because a new study was recently released that looked at ancient human fossil remains to help researchers recognize features in these skeletons that suggest the person might have been a “hybrid” (for example,

In 2020, an interesting evaluation of human evolution was made by a Scientific American science writer. The human saga, we now understand, is far more intricate than scholars of yore envisioned.
