In the last few decades, there has been a lot of discussion by prominent paleontologists who imply that dinosaurs and birds are closely related. Many of these paleontologists go even further, suggesting that dinosaurs didn’t actually go extinct, but evolved directly into birds. Much of the supposed evidence that supports this argument comes from comparative anatomy. In the middle of this controversy is the so-called “transitiona… More… …read more Source: icr.org
By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is a condition most commonly associated with the effects of an unhealthy lifestyle as an adult.

The research, published in the Journal of Pediatrics, shows a link between childhood obesity and liver health in kids as young as just 8 years old. A larger waist circumference at age 3 caused an increased likelihood …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) It’s becoming increasingly clear that a balance of gut bacteria in the microbiome is crucial to overall health and avoiding chronic disease. Another important aspect of gut health is its connection to our mental/emotional wellbeing. The average human body contains close to 40 million microbial cells that are crucial to our health. The gut and the immune system are inextricably linked. Up to 1,000 different species of bacteria have been identified in the human gut; however, most people have around 160 different types at any given …read more Source: Natural Health 365
By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola Do you buy farmed salmon in the belief that it’s the environmentally responsible thing to do? Think again. Fish farms are the water-based equivalents of land-based concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), and as such they create the same, if not worse, environmental concerns. Since the salmon pens are placed along wild salmon runs, they pose a severe threat to wild salmon stocks that pass by, exposing wild fish to diseases such as sea lice, pancreas disease,1infectious salmon anemia virus and piscine reovirus. For a quick review, see “Racing …read more Source: mercola

This membrane enables the two stages (coding and decoding) of protein synthesis to be separated. According to the encyclopaedia, this has enabled different types of cell to evolve to do different jobs. read more …read more Source: Creation Moments
By Dena Schmidt, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) What on Earth has happened to California? At one time, they were a seat of cutting edge culture and creativity in America. However, these days they’re mostly known for government mismanagement and disastrous legislation – including one bill designed to make it a ‘crime’ for anyone to question vaccines. For example, one of the latest such bills has been put forward by California Senator Richard Pan, the same guy who drafted the infamous 2015 law that mandated vaccinations for schoolchildren (SB277). He is now introducing an …read more Source: Natural Health 365

By Ken Ham Last month, Dr. Terry Mortenson shared the creation-gospel message, through translators, in both Germany and Poland. Like the rest of Europe, these countries have been indoctrinated in evolutionary teaching. Bible-believing Christians are a very small minority in both nations. Dr. Terry Mortenson recently reported to the AiG staff on his ministry in Europe. Though it was the birthplace of the Reformation, Germany is now very secularized. Terry spoke 13 times in 10 cities over 10 days to audiences of up to 550 people. He was encouraged to see a good mix of children and …read more Source:

By Sarah Chaffee On this episode of ID the Future, Sarah Chaffee interviews German paleo-entomologist Günter Bechly on the Cambrian explosion, the relatively sudden appearance of new body plans in the fossil record an estimated 550 million years ago. Dr. Bechly explains how the Cambrian explosion has been challenged by non-experts with an anti-ID bias, yet remains very much a real event in the opinion of specialists in the field — and with the continuing failure of Darwinian explanations, a strong source of evidential support for intelligent design.

By Dr. Mercola By Dr. Mercola There is a certain perceived assurance e-cigarettes (e-cigs) are safe and harmless to your health. Unlike combustible cigarettes, the vapor is often odorless, making it difficult to detect once the e-cig device has been put away. While the number of people smoking traditional cigarettes has been dropping,1 the number of teens using e-cigs, also known as vaping, has steadily risen. Since 2011, teens have been smoking less and vaping more, and research demonstrates teens who vape may also be more prone to smoke.2 Tobacco Headlines Don’t Tell the Whole Story Smokeless e-cigarettes are the
