A 15-year-long project finally bore fruit after researchers painstakingly identified a specific gene mutation that can lead to sudden heart failure in otherwise healthy-looking young people. These newly published results counter the long-standing view that mutations can somehow drive evolutionary innovation. More… …read more Read more here: icr.org
“More marvels of design that we are supposed to believe were the product of random chance processes … yeah, right.” Admin Scuba divers can explore underwater depths firsthand because of specialized equipment that was developed in just the last century. Likewise, solar-powered airplanes currently in development promise to provide fuel-free flying. These inventions open new realms for human exploration, but the arachnid and insect equivalents of their equipment have been on the planet for ages. Scuba is a stand-alone word today, but it began as the acronym for “self-contained underwater breathing apparatus,” so named because it supplies breathable air underwater.

Scientists are discovering engineering details of the biological structures that enable some animals to jump exceedingly far for their sizes. Froghoppers are insects that can jump 100 times their body length, and it turns out that sheer muscular strength is not nearly sufficient to account for this feat.

Sea urchins are spiny marine animals. Some of them like to hide in holes that they dig out of limestone in the ocean floor, using teeth that are ground down and yet remain sharp. What makes these teeth so special that they can drill through rock and not go blunt? Israeli scientists found remarkably precise and efficient construction when they took a close look at the sea urchins’ teeth. Using various high resolution imaging techniques, they saw tiny edges of magnesium calcite crystals exposed on the tooth surfaces. The sea urchins manufacture these crystals so that as the tooth wears

By Ken Ham We’ve pointed out many times that the topic of creation vs. evolution isn’t science vs. the Bible or science vs. religion. It’s one interpretation of the evidence competing with a different interpretation of the evidence. I thought I would use a new study that came out of my homeland of Australia as an example to show you how this works. Looking Through Secular Lenses Researchers are studying hairs from Australian aborigines to “help reconnect indigenous families with ancestral communities.” Here are their conclusions and interpretations based on the genetic data: “Aboriginal Australians descended from a single population

A Bobbit worm is a predatory sea worm that submerges beneath sandy sea bottoms. Lying still with its fanged jaws ready, it waits, then grabs and drags its prey underground. New evidence supports the idea that special creation, not evolution, explains this unique worm’s body construction. More… …read more Read more here: icr.org
