For more details visit: http://creation.com/creation-magazine-live-episode-28 Geologist Dr Steve Austin is responsible for making great advancements in creationist geology. This episode features an interview with Dr Austin from Creation magazine. His research into geological catastrophism (over uniformitarianism) on coal, around Mount St Helens, in Grand Canyon, in Yellowstone and other places has helped many people to better understand what the global flood of Noah could have accomplished geologically. His research on Catastrophic Plate Tectonics (CPT) and radioisotope dating and also included.

In 1923, American Microscopist, Theophilus Painter, announced to the world that humans had 48 chromosomes. This number was repeated like a mantra for several decades until plant cytologist, Albert Levan, announced in 1956 that it was wrong. The actual number is 46. The wrong information, repeated frequently enough often becomes accepted as fact. This is known as reinforcement syndrome. Many eminent scientists accepted that humans had 48 chromosomes, even if their microscopes said otherwise. The same thing has happened with the supposed extinction of dinosaurs 65-million years ago. Much evidence suggests it’s wrong, like historical accounts of dragons that sound [More]
When scientists announced the discovery of the Wollemi Pine in Australia, in 1994, it caused a sensation. Some reported that it was like finding a living dinosaur, because the tree was only known from fossils in ‘Jurassic’ rocks. That would make it extinct for 150 million years, by evolutionary reckoning. Finds like this are actually quite common. When something that scientists thought became extinct millions of years ago is found alive, it’s called a ‘living fossil’. But ‘living fossils’ pose a problem for evolution—since the organism hasn’t changed, it brings into question the supposed millions of years age as well [More]

According to Skeptics, one of the characteristics of a pseudo-scientific theory is that it contradicts a known scientific law. For instance, in biology, we have the law of biogenesis, which states that life only comes from life. Ironically, though, many self-professed Skeptics ignore this scientific law when it comes to the origin of life. According to evolutionary theory, all life on earth can be traced back to a single-celled organism, which itself arose from non-living chemicals. But this is a clear contradiction of the law of biogenesis. And not surprisingly, so far, scientists have been unable to validate this belief. [More]

In 2004 New Scientist magazine published an Open Letter to the Scientific Community in which 33 leading scientists blasted the big bang. Their strongly-worded letter included statements like: ‘The big bang today relies on a growing number of hypothetical entities, things that we have never observed… Without them, there would be a fatal contradiction between the observations made by astronomers and the predictions of the big bang theory… But the big bang theory can’t survive without these fudge factors… An open exchange of ideas is lacking in most mainstream conferences… [and] doubt and dissent are not tolerated’. With such growing [More]
One of the basic tenets of science is that open-mindedness is critically important, and the evidence should be followed wherever it may lead. But some scientists say that we should not always be so open-minded, and that some conclusions should not be allowed, even if demanded by all the evidence. They say that no matter how much evidence there is for ingenious design in life, in the structure of the universe, or in libraries full of encoded information in genomes, they must not even consider the possibility that God might have had anything to do with the creation of such [More]

Given the dimensions of the Ark and the number of animals needed Noah could easily fit all the animals on the Ark with room to spare for food and other provisions to survive a year-long global flood.

Research in recent years by leading (evolutionist) geneticists has revealed catastrophically high mutation rates in humans. This would be a good thing if mutations really cause upward evolution. Instead the human race is plunging toward extinction. Based on data from genetics humans could not have been evolving for millions of years, we would already be extinct.

Have you ever wondered how Noah would have fitted dinosaurs on the ark? For example, how would a large sauropod like brachiosaurus even get in the door? This question is often used to challenge the validity of the Bible, but new research has provided a stunning answer. By studying the growth rings in dinosaur bones, scientists have discovered that dinosaurs underwent a tremendous adolescent growth spurt. Take, for example, the huge Apatosaurus. Scientists have hypothesized that their growth spurt started at about five years of age, when they weighed one ton. During the spurt however, they put on about five [More]
Creation Ministries International staff, many from a wide range of scientific disciplines, have produced thousands of articles now available in a massive online database. Some of the topics include the feasibility of Noah’s Ark and evidence for a global flood, scientific arguments that explain observations made from astrology, within a young-earth timeframe. Recent discoveries that support dinosaurs fitting within the Bible’s timeframe, biological evidence that shows that the changes observing in living things have absolutely nothing to do with evolution.

Scientists studying fossil ‘sea spiders’ from ‘Jurassic’ rock found they are just the same as today’s sea spiders. By evolutionary reckoning, that’s no change in 160 million years. In that supposed time, evolutionists say, most of the dinosaurs, birds, many fish and virtually all mammals have evolved—all by natural processes. From finches to albatrosses, and mice to elephants—they all made themselves by evolutionary processes. They also say most of the flowering plants evolved too. And yet the sea spiders haven’t changed in all that time! Curious isn’t it? The Bible tells us in Genesis chapter 1 that God created plants [More]
If Arnold Schwarzenegger had a pet cow, I can almost guarantee it would be a Belgian Blue. These cows are incredibly muscled and have very little fat. Many people think of this breed as evolution in action—because a mutation in its DNA has brought about a supposed improvement. But if microbes really did turn into Belgian Blue cows—which is what evolution teaches—this would require the addition of lots of new DNA information to turn the relatively simple genome of a bacteria into the vastly more complicated genome of a cow. However, in the case of Belgian Blue cows, we see [More]
A question people often ask is “Does the Bible mention dinosaurs”? You might expect that the Bible would mention the most impressive land-dwelling beasts of God’s creation, since He created them on Day 6 along with people. Indeed, in Job Chapter 40, God directs Job to consider the crowning glory of his creation, “Behemoth”, as testimony to his creative power. “Behemoth” is described as a colossal beast, feeding on grass like an ox and living in marshes, with great strength in its loins and power in the muscles of its belly. Its bones are like “tubes of bronze”, and it [More]
Dogs vary greatly in size, from Chihuahua to Great Dane, yet they are all part of the dog, or wolf, created kind; they can all interbreed. Researchers have found that the small breeds of dogs all have something in common, a mutation in the gene that codes for an important growth regulator. This prevents the small dogs from growing to greater size. Mutations do that sort of thing, they destroy genetic information. Sometimes those destructions are useful to us, producing cute miniature dogs that don’t cost that much to feed. But mutations can’t produce the complex information needed to produce [More]
When most people hear the word ‘explosion’, they often think of destroyed buildings and injured people. But geologists have long recognized a different type of ‘explosion’ in earth’s sedimentary rocks, known as the Cambrian explosion. Cambrian rocks are a group of rocks—found around the world—in which we find fossils of many of the major animal groups. This is significant because Precambrian rocks, found below the Cambrian, don’t generally contain much fossil material—but then in the Cambrian—there are fossils in abundance. In fact, this transition is so dramatic that some call it the Cambrian Big Bang. But probably the most devastating [More]
Is the human genome full of parasites? This might seem like a ridiculous question but some researchers suggest that it is. The human genome project revealed a large number of transposable elements. These DNA segments copy themselves and move around the genome. Some scientists claim they serve no function and have dismissed them as parasitic DNA. Some evolutionary scientists claim that similarities with chimps in these supposedly useless bits prove evolution. But new research shows they have functions. One study revealed that transposable elements activate during embryo development in mice, to control gene expression. Another study revealed they activate in [More]

It’s often claimed that evolution is simply change over time. And since change over time can be seen everywhere, then evolution is obviously true. But highly trained creation scientists say there is much more to it than that. For evolution to have turned particles into people a special type of change is needed. That is naturally occurring change that adds new genetic instructions. No one has seen this special kind of change happen, Darwin’s Finches, peppered moths and adapting bacteria are all examples of naturally occurring change but none of them adds new genetic instructions. Not one of them adds [More]
In 2003, the Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to the pioneers of MRI scanning technology. But of those honored for this amazing medical breakthrough, there was a glaring omission. Incredibly, the Nobel Committee did not recognize Dr Raymond Damadian, who is widely known as ‘the man who invented the MRI scanner’. The two men who did receive the Nobel Prize certainly contributed to the field, but there is no doubt that Damadian made the pioneering breakthroughs. And what makes his exclusion even more suspect is that up to three people can share the award. It does make you wonder [More]
