Proof The Bible Is True

Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss an article from Creation magazine summarizing some of the amazing flying abilities of dragonflies. Researchers investigating these abilities are gaining new insight into aerodynamic efficiency by studying the dragonfly.

CMI has seen many people return to Christianity after discovering that evolution is not true. Part 1 of this 2-part discussion focuses on how we can apply the Biblical example of Paul to our evolutionized world as he modified his approach to evangelism so that each group he spoke to would understand the Gospel clearly, given their background knowledge of Biblical events.

More than just an oxymoron, this meaningless term is another example of the mental gymnastics required to force-fit scientific discoveries into evolutionary history. In this episode Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss why this term is being applied to “living fossils”: fossils that are supposedly millions of years old but are virtually identical to the modern living organism.

Refuting Evolution is a powerful, concise summary that explains where the common ‘evidences’ used to promote evolution in textbooks are wrong, while at the same time showing how creation is better supported by scientific observations. It will stimulate much discussion and help students and teachers think more critically about the creation/evolution debate, particularly the often overlooked differences between operational and historical science and how they relate to the topic of origins.

The Creation Answers Book is CMI’s most popular book because it covers 60 of the most asked questions about Genesis and the creation evolution issue. Questions like: • What is the evidence for God’s existence? • Could the days in Genesis 1 be long periods of time? • How did all the animals fit on Noah’s Ark? • Does radioisotope dating prove that that earth is very old? • Where did Cain get his wife? • Where do dinosaurs fit into the Bible? …and many more.

Question 4 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer challenges evolutionists to explain how natural selection can be the creative process evolutionists require. Natural selection explains the survival of the fittest, adaptation and variation within a kind leading to the great diversity of living things. It fits well with the biblical notion that God created life with the necessary programming to live in a variety of environments. Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss the question and the attempts to answer it.

What do mice and fruit flies have in common? On the surface, you’d not think much, but geneticists have discovered that some of their genes are practically identical. Discoveries like this are often touted as proof of evolution because the similar genes supposedly show that mice and fruit flies are related. But evolutionary scientists did not predict this. Genetics professor Sean Caroll confessed, “No biologist had even the foggiest notion that such similarities could exist between genes of such different animals.” According to evolutionists, mice and fruit flies last shared a common ancestor over six hundred million years ago, therefore [More]

Even many Christians see this as a reason why we should accept evolutionary conclusions rather than take the Bible as plainly read. By doing so they in danger of repeating the same mistake the church made with Galileo. Richard and Calvin discuss the Galileo account and why Christians should trust the Bible rather than accept the fallible conclusions of man about evolution and millions of years.

In 2009 atheists in the United Kingdom launched a public campaign to preach their message of unbelief by using advertising space on public busses. These busses are emblazed with the slogan, “There’s probably no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Some people find this slogan rather odd. If these atheists are so sure there’s no god why does the sign say, “There’s PROBABLY no god.” Atheists have responded by pointing out that they can’t say there’s no god, because that would be taking a faith position. But perhaps more puzzling is the second part of the slogan, which [More]

Many people are under the mistaken impression that people from different racial backgrounds have big differences in their DNA instructions. But this is not the case. The entire human race has an incredibly low level of genetic variety. Some biologists have remarked that if you sequenced the DNA instruction of two humans on opposite sides of the globe they’d have less change in their DNA than two chimps on the same mountain in Africa. These discoveries have profound implications. Since the human race has relatively low genetic variety that means it must have originated recently. The racial groups have not [More]

For a more in-depth understanding of topics relating to the creation/evolution debate, the Journal of Creation contains peer-reviewed research papers that support the biblical account of Creation, the Flood and the Fall. One subscriber said: “I always assumed that this journal would be too academic for me… not so. I am a Christian with a very enquiring mind… With each issue I find powerful articles that open doors and shine light on my understanding of the world.” Each Journal of Creation is more than 120 pages and published 3 times per year.

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]

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]
