In a previous article, I explained how epigenetic mechanisms regulate the structure and function of DNA.1 Specifically, I showed how small molecules can be attached to the DNA itself or added to the histone proteins that the DNA is packaged with. These are known as DNA methylation or histone modifications, respectively. The modifications are monitored and performed dynamically according to the needs of the cell and adaptively in response to environmental changes. Furthermore, these epigenetic modifications can be heritable to give the organism’s offspring an adaptive advantage. Read More: Small Heritable RNAs Pack a Big Adaptive Punch | The Institute for

When we look into the depths of space, objects are easily found that seem to nullify the Big Bang theory that so many people cling to! Do these astronomical evidences really disprove the Big Bang? Is there another option? Host Lauren and Dr. Jake Hebert discuss this important topic on episode 60 of The Creation Podcast! Watch: 3 Astronomical Evidences from Deep Space that Counter the Big Bang Theory | The Creation Podcast: Episode 60 | The Institute for Creation Research
DNA sequencing technologies have been progressing rapidly over the past several decades and now finally afford the opportunity to analyze mammalian chromosomes from end to end. In the past, many regions of human and ape genomes have been very difficult to fully decipher because older DNA sequencing technologies were limited to obtaining very short snippets of DNA—impairing their utility to fully decode long, complex, and repetitive DN...

Many critics claim that a global flood could not have actually happened. Does the number of species on the planet disprove the biblical Flood? Watch: Does Math Disprove the Flood? – Apologetics Press
In love for his creation, God gave birds the ability to adapt to extreme situations. His eye is on the sparrow—and the bar-headed goose. Read More
The ninth International Conference on Creationism (ICC) was held July 16–19, 2023, at Cedarville University in Ohio. ICR scientists made substantial contributions to this year’s conference as either authors or co-authors of five technical papers, three posters, and one oral abstract. We are pleased to announce that the proceedings are now online and may be freely accessed by interested readers.1

In God’s perfect creation, toxic trees didn’t exist. But God designed koalas with the ability to adapt their diet after the fall. Read More
Climate-change activists argue that virtually all scientists agree that devastating climate change is the result of man’s actions. But is this true? Read More
When a volcano spews out so much rock that rapidly it becomes a sizeable island. It isn’t a first, and it won’t be the last.
When Ron Neller studied how water affected the landscapes all over the world, he was on his way to becoming a biblical creationist and did not know it.

These stunning reptiles can stay submerged for up to 18 minutes and can ‘rebreathe’ some of their own air
A recent discovery of the fossilized contents of a “teenage” tyrannosaur’s stomach gives researchers a glimpse into exactly what these massive reptiles ate. Read More
A new study published in the Journal of Human Evolution has found that the so-called Homo naledi most likely didn’t bury their dead as previously proposed.1 Furthermore, the team of scientists concluded that Homo naledi probably didn’t use stone artifacts, make fire, or create cave art as has been suggested by paleoanthropologist Lee Berger.1
A few months ago, Lee Berge... More...

Did you know that a woodpecker can strike a tree up to 20 times per second, with each strike being equivalent to 1,000 times that of gravity? How can these birds do this without being harmed? Join Eric Lyons as he presents a lesson on God’s extraordinary design of the woodpecker. Watch: Wonders of Creation: Woodpeckers – Apologetics Press
The vast distances of space prove to be a huge problem for an evolutionary view
of the universe.
For some time now, renowned and award-winning Rice University chemist and outspoken Christian Dr. James Tour has been exposing the fact that origin-of-life (OoL) researchers have no idea how life could have formed through natural processes. Two months ago, Dr. Tour issued a dramatic challenge to 10 prominent OoL researchers.1 Tour said he would take down all his public criticisms of OoL, but only if any one of t... More...
