Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith discuss an article by Geologist Tas Walker from Creation magazine that shows how dating methods really work.

In school we are taught that ‘Mutations + Natural Selection = Evolution’, but do genetic mutations really help evolution? Changes in DNA are supposed to provide the new functions that natural selection ‘chooses’ leading to the evolution of simply organisms into more complex ones. However, leading geneticists agree that mutations lead to extinction, not evolution into something better. This episode features portions of an interview with former evolutionary geneticist Dr John Sanford.

‘Information’ is a word we hear constantly, and terms like ‘biological information’ are commonly used when discussing living things. In the origins debate the question is “Where did information come from?” Richard and Calvin explain how this is an extremely difficult question to answer for evolution theory but fits perfectly with the idea of intelligent design and the God of the Bible.

Dinosaur fossils are often found in an unusual posture, characterized by their head thrown back, hind-limbs bent and tails extended. Over the years scientists have proposed different theories to explain this puzzling phenomenon. However, according to paleontologist Cynthia Marshal Foe, there is only one legitimate explanation, which is that the dinosaurs died of asphyxiation. It is well know that animals, starved of oxygen when the die, can go into this characteristic posture due to muscle spasms. This new understanding of dinosaur fossilization fits well with the Bible’s history, where many dinosaurs were rapidly buried in sediment during the global flood. [More]

This raises the ire of many in the evolutionary establishment, and often they will accuse creationists of ‘taking their remarks out of context’. Richard and Calvin discuss a particularly damning quote by a famous evolutionist and show how it is often evolutionists that are muddying the waters surrounding this issue and not creationists.

Most people have experienced the frustration of failing to find a location because they’ve been given confusing directions. But even though humans can often be hopeless at giving directions, the humble honeybee manages to give excellent directions, even though it does so in a very unusual way. Scientists have long known that when honeybees discover a new food source, they return to the hive and perform a special dance that, remarkably, informs the other bees where to find the food. But this dancing mode of communication is so complicated that it took Austrian naturalist Karl von Frisch 20 years to [More]

God’s Word says that the whole globe was covered in water at the time of Noah’s Flood. All land dwelling, air-breathing creatures not on the Ark perished and the world was repopulated by those surviving on the Ark. That means that all of the animals and their worldwide distribution has taken place within a timescale of just over 4,000 years since the Flood. How can this be?

Dr Lawrence Krauss calls teaching creationism to children ‘child abuse’. He wants to censor any science that contradicts his beliefs about atheism and evolution over millions of years. However, he doesn’t seem to grasp foundational aspects of the origins debate. Teaching lies to children is wrong. They need to be taught the truth about the world around us and what life is all about. To learn more about the science supporting creation see the following articles.

Many biologists have long touted that much of our DNA is useless junk. Richard Dawkins put it this way. “Can we measure the information capacity of that portion of the genome which is actually used? We can at least estimate it. In the case of the human genome it is about 2%” Thus, to Dawkins, the other 98% of the genome was useless junk. But these statements are based on ignorance. Just because we aren’t aware of the function of much of our DNA, does not mean it has no function. A recent paper in the prestigious journal of Nature [More]

If you were able to choose the planet you lived on, which one would it be? Well, I would definitely choose earth, because it is so well suited for life. Whether you’re considering the Earth’s distance from the sun, or its gravity, axial tilt or magnetic field, one conclusion is inescapable. Earth is finely tuned for life. Many see this as evidence for a designer but others don’t. If earth wasn’t finely tuned, they say, we wouldn’t even exist so it doesn’t indicate a designer. But is that a satisfactory answer? Imagined you were dragged before a trained firing squad [More]

Question 9 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer has plagued evolutionists since the time of Darwin. Where are the transitional fossils? Evolutionary paleontologists have stated that the “missing links” are still missing and some, such as the late Stephen J. Gould, have suggested new ways of interpreting the fossil record due to the lack of transitional fossils.

Question 7 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer reveals yet another problem area for the story of evolution: How did cells adapted to individual survival ‘learn’ to cooperate and specialize (including undergoing programmed cell death) to create complex plants and animals?

Dr Lawrence Krauss compares teaching creationism to children as child abuse. He also compares teaching creation to teaching that Santa Claus or Hell is real. He suggests that evidence against his beliefs about atheism and evolution should be censored. Meanwhile creationists believe that scientific evidence should be taught to children, even if it contradicts evolution. People should be taught truth.

Question 11 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer focuses on the origin of meaning and morality. Without a moral law giver how do we get our moral laws?

When the BBC produced the series “Walking with the Dinosaurs” a few years ago they had to search the globe for appropriate filming locations but whenever they discovered an otherwise suitable site the ground was inevitably covered in grass and back in the year 1999 that was an evolutionary impossibility. You see, until recently, most evolutionary scientists believed that grasses first evolved 55 million years ago long after the supposed extinction of the dinosaurs but since then studies of fossilized dinosaur dung showed that not only did dinosaurs and grass live at the same time but that dinosaurs actually ate [More]

Unless you’ve been living underground for the last few years, I’m sure you’ve heard of feathered dinosaurs. It seems we’re constantly hearing that birds evolved from dinosaurs, some have even suggested that KFC could change its name to KFD, Kentucky fried dinosaur. But not all evolutionary scientists accept the dino to bird dogma. A prominent one is renowned ornithologist Alan Feduccia of the University of North Carolina. He recently stated, “The theory that birds are the equivalent of living dinosaurs and that dinosaurs were feathered is so full of holes that the creationists have jumped all over it.” He further [More]

At a forum on depression a young man said, “I think some people may have an inability to cope and maybe, this might sound a bit extreme, that might be Darwinian theory, the Darwin theory of survival of the fittest. Maybe some of us aren’t meant to survive, maybe some of us are meant to kill ourselves.” Now why did this young man think human life has such little value? Perhaps he’d heard people like Oxford Professor Dr Peter Atkins who said, “We are just a bit of slime on the planet.” Likewise, psychologist Susan Blackmore said, “If you really [More]

Most people don’t like to be told they have a big head, but some scientists might actually consider that a compliment. Humans have much large skulls than apes and since humans are much more intelligent there’s been a long-standing belief that skull size indicates level of intelligence. That’s why evolutionists tend to interpret larger ape skulls as advanced apes and smaller human skulls as sub human. But this evolutionary story has multiple problems. Neandertals were supposedly primitive, often portrayed as sub-human, but their skulls are actually bigger than ours. Also the winner of the 1921 Nobel Prize for literature had [More]
