Proof The Bible Is True

A long-standing evolutionary argument is that creature diversity is essentially a random process. But new discoveries increasingly show serious flaws in this claim and are highly consistent with a design-based framework. The findings support the idea that adaptation is intensely purposeful. Science Daily reported one such find with the attention-catching title: Hawaiian stick spiders re-evolve the same three guises every time they … More… …read more Source: icr.org

Cuttlefish are so good at imitation that they can instantly transform into a black-and-white chessboard or any other surrounding that mischievous researchers can think of. …read more Source: AIG Daily     

By Ken Ham An article appeared recently in the Mirror, a UK news site, featuring an interview with Jane Goodall, the famous evolutionary primatologist who studied chimpanzees in Tanzania. Dr. Goodall was discussing her early days working with wild chimps. She shares that she originally thought chimps were nice, only to later learn they can “rip your face off.” Are We Evil Because of Our Ape-like Ancestors? Apparently, the chimpanzees were so dangerous that once Dr. Goodall had a baby, the baby had to live in a cage so the chimps wouldn’t steal him and kill him. Eventually she watched [More]

By Ken Ham Apparently spending time in outer space can actually lead to long-term changes in your DNA. A fascinating recent study on the world’s only identical twin astronauts, Scott and Mark Kelly, showed that spending nearly a year on the International Space Station (ISS) changes how your genes are expressed. Scott went to the ISS for 340 days while his retired, identical twin brother, Mark, stayed here on earth. When Scott returned, researchers compared his DNA to his brother’s. Identical twins have virtually identical DNA (though mutations that accumulate during your lifetime mean their DNA isn’t 100% identical), so [More]

A recent opinion piece posted on the Chemistry World website1 notes that Richard Dawkins’ 1976 book The Selfish Gene deeply motivated a generation of biologists to adopt a gene-centered framework to explain why biological phenomena seem to operate for specific purposes. The book’s persuasion notwithstanding, the article notes ongoing challenges to the validity of Dawkins’ “selfish gene metaphor.” … More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham According to a recent study, there’s been a minor tweak in the evolutionary story of the early evolution of life. Photosynthesis, the process by which plants, algae, and some microbes produce oxygen, might have evolved a billion years earlier than previously thought, and faster too. Linear calculations put the origin of photosynthesis older than the earth itself! Yep, just a minor tweak! The original evolutionary story went this way: cyanobacteria were the first life to produce oxygen. Since there was no oxygen before these microbes started making it, oxygen wasn’t available until about 2.7 billion years ago, [More]

A conclusion does not prove the premises are true. That is, if the answer is “four,” we could arrive at that any number of ways: 2 + 2, 5 – 1, etc. In the same way, evolutionists often assume that since certain species or traits exist, this is proof of evolution because that’s how it must have happened. …read more Source: AIG Daily     

By Ken Ham A few weeks ago, news headlines around the world proclaimed that the oldest known “Briton” (by secular dating methods) was dark-skinned, according to genetic analysis (which was done for a TV documentary). But now new headlines are calling this pronouncement into question. These new reports are more tentative, stating that the results weren’t absolutely conclusive and that new research has shown even more genes than we thought are responsible for skin shade. It goes on to say that, even with current technology, we really can’t tell the shade of an ancient person’s skin yet, especially considering how [More]

In the animal kingdom, many types of creatures use stereo vision to determine the distances between them and visible objects. In humans, each of our eyes records a slightly different version of what is observed. These two different views are then accurately merged in our brains to produce a single image—computationally using the differences between the two images to allow us to visually gauge depth and distance. This process, referred… More… …read more Source: icr.org

By Ken Ham As we’ve reported numerous times on our site, scientists have observed lizards evolving into lizards, salmon evolving into salmon, moths into moths, mice into mice, bedbugs into bedbugs; and more lizards into lizards! I must admit, the evidence that organisms evolve into organisms like themselves is pretty overwhelming! Of course, I say that tongue-in-cheek, but examples of adaptation, speciation, and natural selection are used over and over again as evidence for molecules-to-man evolution—but they’re not! What they really show are examples of what God’s Word teaches—everything reproduces according to their kinds. Lizards produce lizards, salmon …read more [More]

Dr. Christopher Gardner, director of nutrition studies at the Stanford Prevention Research Center, and his colleagues conducted a study on 609 overweight and obese adults living in San Francisco’s Bay Area. Nutritionists coached the adults not to bother with counting calories. They should eat until they felt full, but eat plenty of vegetables and whole foods. The study results held a few surprises. First, the study pa… More… …read more Source: icr.org

Males and females of the same species may be filling ecological niches usually filled by separate species.

The planaria, a type of flatworm, has an amazing capacity to regenerate a new body from just fragments of tissue. Its genome has just been sequenced. The surprising result is a completely unexpected evolutionary conundrum.

By Ken Ham A recent article from Live Science proclaimed, “Oldest Fossil of ‘Missing Link’ Dinosaur Discovered in Germany.” Now, the actual find was not quite that sensational—no “missing link” involved. Actually, there wasn’t even a dinosaur involved! What they found was another fossilized Archaeopteryx specimen—a crow-sized bird with teeth and claws on its wings, as many now-extinct birds had (though penguins still have teeth and hoatzins have claws as juveniles). They found this fossil lower in the rocks than other specimens have been found. Because it’s found in supposedly lower rocks (based on the “index fossil,” in this case [More]

By Ken Ham For most insects, getting eaten is the end—but not for the remarkable bombardier beetle. These little beetles are often discussed in creation literature because of their incredible design features, including the ability to shoot a boiling, noxious gas so they can escape predators. But, according to new research, the bombardier beetle has another trick. Researchers in Japan fed bombardier beetles to toads to see what would happen. Well, nearly half of the toads puked up the beetles anywhere from 12 to 107 minutes after ingesting them. The hardy little beetles scurried off, apparently unharmed. It turns out [More]

By Ken Ham When you think of fossils, you probably picture dinosaurs, trilobites, or other exotic and extinct creatures. But did you know there are many examples of much more familiar creatures throughout the fossil record? A Order your copy of Living Fossils today! And, contrary to what the article states, these ducks are certainly not the only example of modern birds buried with dinosaurs. We find fossilized parrots, albatrosses, loons, owls, flamingos, penguins, sandpipers, and more buried in the same layers as dinosaurs. And one evolutionary researcher claimed that such evidence supports the idea that “most or all of [More]
