By Ken Ham What is evolution? Well, that really depends on whom you ask. There are all kinds of definitions out there. Typically, when we think of evolution, we think of Darwinian evolution—the idea of all life descended from a common ancestor as one kind turns into another kind, and eventually ape-like creatures supposedly evolved into humans. But now we often hear a very different definition: those small changes within a kind are, well, evolution! A recent article defined evolution according to a definition from famous evolutionary biologist, Richard Dawkins: “evolution is changed gene frequencies in populations.” The article goes

Echinoderms, “spiny-skinned” invertebrates, are first found in the Cambrian sedimentary rock layers as 100% echinoderms. The first brittle stars (Echinoderm, class Ophiuroidea) were found in the Early Ordovician sediments and don’t show any evolution. One of the more interesting of the Ophiuroidea is the brittle star (Ophiocoma wendtii). While snorkeling the waters of Hawaii several years ago, I f… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham Sometimes you just have to shake your head. That was my reaction when I read this headline, “Zoo Chimps Doing a ‘Conga Line’ Could Teach Us How Humans Evolved to Dance.” Yes, you read that right! Two chimps swaying and walking in synchronization is thought by these researchers to provide insight into the evolution of dance. These particular chimps were very closely bonded, having been together since they were just a few months old (one of the chimps died in 2018). For several years, they exhibited this strange, apparently self-taught behavior, of walking and swaying in sync.

Based on biblical chronologies, we can determine that the global Flood recorded in Genesis occurred about 4,500 years ago.1 After the Flood, the earth was repopulated by Noah’s three sons and their wives. So we should find genetic signatures of this timeline in human DNA. While a number of previous studies by both secular and creation scientists have supported this general timeline,2-3 a recent study using extens… More… …read more Source: icr.org
Scientists have reported the presence of methane-producing microbes living deep beneath the Siljan impact crater in Sweden.1 Although the researchers stopped short of claiming the impact somehow brought the microbes to Earth, they do assert that impacts can create favorable habitats for colonization. The 30-mile wide Siljan impact site is ringed by Ordovician and Silurian sediments, including black shales that ap… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Ken Ham What exactly is it? That’s the question researchers are trying to figure out after the discovery of a frozen puppy preserved in permafrost in eastern Siberia. The two-month old canine was “remarkably preserved,” with fur, nose, and teeth still intact, even after a supposed 18,000 years. According to the BBC, scientists are wondering if this puppy represents an evolutionary link between wolves and dogs, or if it’s just a wolf or what we call a dog today. Researchers sequenced the puppy’s DNA but were unable to determine whether it was a wolf or a dog. This suggests

It’s exciting when research with medical implications also provides insight into the mechanisms of biological adaptation. Two new studies contribute to a large body of research that not only contradicts the textbook account for the evolution of life on Earth, but also supports the explanation of engineered adaptability. By way of background, the standard account of evolution is a two-step process that supposedly explains how … More… …read more Source: icr.org

How did Neanderthals go extinct? Four researchers from the Netherlands recently published the results of their computer-modeled human populations in the journal PLOS ONE.1 The findings show that small Neanderthal population sizes would have caused them to become extinct in just 10,000 years. How did Neanderthals survive the 400,000 years they were supposedly on Earth? Neanderthals were real people. Hundreds of r… More… …read more Source: icr.org

The latest fossil biochemistry paper, published in Scientific Reports, describes “blood vessel structures” recovered from inside a T. rex femur.1 This is the same femur in which the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology featured collagen fibers, protein remnants, and possible DNA signatures back in 1997.2 Since then, debate has raged among experts. On one hand, fossil experts keep re… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham The more scientists study the human body, the more obvious it is that we’re “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139:14). Our bodies bear the hallmarks of design and the fingerprints of God. And a new study is highlighting that truth by demonstrating, once again, how incredibly designed our brains and systems are. According to a new study, some women who are missing (or, at the very least, have significantly reduced) olfactory bulbs in their brains are still able to smell. It is a surprising result because the olfactory bulbs are the part of the brain known to

In their quest to try and find some sort of evolutionary similarity between humans and apes, scientists have compared DNA, proteins, anatomy, behavior, and every other conceivable feature. But many of these attempts showed that a huge chasm of dissimilarity exists with no distinct evolutionary connection. And now, a new study comparing saliva between humans and apes is once again showing the uniqueness of humans and the failure of evolution… More… …read more Source: icr.org
