Proof The Bible Is True

Who doesn’t enjoy the amazing color patterns of butterflies?^1,2 Such beautiful designs and construction do not reflect blind naturalistic forces³ but the Creator’s hand.^4,5

It has been known that “the genetic code contained within the cells of developing butterfly wings dictates the specific arrangement of the color on the wing’s scales -- the microscopic tiles that form wi... More...

Finding well-preserved creatures in amber¹ is a landfall for creation scientists, much like the numerous discoveries of soft dinosaur tissue in fossils.² Another find has been reported by the University of Copenhagen: a fungus gnat has been found entombed in amber.³ Has this in any way supported evolutionary theory? The closest the scientists could get to addressing real evolution of this fly was to sta... More...

The first sentence in a recent evolutionary news story set the stage for the rest of the article: “Flowers like hibiscus use an invisible blueprint established very early in petal formation that dictates the size of their bullseyes—a crucial pre-pattern that can significantly impact their ability to attract pollinating bees [emphasis added].”¹ Such a statement could easily have come from a creation... More...

In a February 1, 1871, letter to his best friend, botanist Joseph Dalton Hooker, Charles Darwin suggested a warm little pond was the site where primitive life first arose.¹ But the place, time, and conditions of such a pond remain unknown.

Recently, another strange idea has surfaced in evolution’s fruitless search to explain how organic life randomly sprung from inorganic nonlife.

According to evolutio... More...

Five hundred years ago in Wittenberg, Germany, an unusual scholar changed the course of human history using pen and hammer. Dr. Martin Luther protested unbiblical church teachings and practices—especially selling indulgences—sparking the Protestant Reformation.¹ Unsurprisingly, a review of Luther’s treatment of Genesis shows how taking Scripture seriously logically leads to taking creation seriously. In fact, Lu... More...

Microfossil willow wood, fungi, insect body parts, and a poppy seed have been recovered from sediments at the bottom of central Greenland’s two-mile-long GISP2 ice core.^1,2 This find is similar to an earlier discovery of such fossils found in basal sediments from the Camp Century ice core near Greenland’s northwest coast.³ These microfossils suggest that Greenland once had a tundra-like environment, with gr... More...

The phylum Mollusca (molluscs) is an amazing¹ and diverse assemblage of invertebrates. It includes squids, clams, tusk shells, octopuses, snails, and chitons.

What was the origin of this large and amazing group? According to evolutionism, “The first molluscs probably arose during Precambrian times because fossils attributed to Mollusca appear in geological strata as old as the early Cambrian period [emphas... More...

Tiny volcanic glass beads suggest “surprisingly recent” lava flows on the moon that are “difficult to reconcile with the accepted history of lunar volcanism.”^1,2 These tiny glass beads were retrieved by the Chinese Chang’e 5 spacecraft, a replica of which is shown in the above photo. The spacecraft returned to Earth in 2020. Subsequent chemical analysis of the beads suggested they were volcani... More...

Genesis claims that people in the pre-Flood world routinely attained 900-year lifespans. The best-known example is Methuselah, who had the longest recorded lifespan of 969 years (Genesis 5:27). Skeptics dismiss these great ages as fanciful legends, but recent fossil data are providing unexpected, albeit indirect, corroboration of the Bible’s testimony. Science Advances reports tha... More...

We lost a natural wonder to gravity and erosion on Thursday, August 8, 2024.¹ Those who visited Double Arch, also called “Hole in the Roof Arch,” in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah, can count themselves privileged. Their future descendants won’t get to see it. This news got folks asking about other, even more iconic natural arches like those at Arches National Park, also in Utah. Will each arch inevit... More...

There is nothing simple about an animal group called the euarthropods (phylum Euarthropoda), which includes insects, crustaceans, and extinct trilobites.

Evolutionists stated in a recent issue of Nature how complex these alleged early creatures were: “Sophisticated brains and specialized feeding appendages, which are elaborations of serially repeated organ systems and jointed appendages, underpin the dominance of Eua... More...

Erosion and other natural forces upon sedimentary formations such as exposed cliffs and arches belie the millions of years during which they allegedly existed.^1,2

Recently,

A popular natural rock feature that stood for millions of years has come crashing down into Lake Powell in Utah’s Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Known as the Double Arch, the stunning geological att... More...

Perhaps no other fossil discoveries have rocked the world of paleontology more than original organics like proteins in old bones. ICR helps curate a list of mainstream science publications that describe what’s inside these fossils: hemoglobin, chromosomes, whole cells, tissue scraps, and bone collagen. The number exceeds 120, making the presence of proteins and similar finds an increasingly common occurrence.¹ So what&rsquo... More...

Evolutionists utilize a theoretical tree of life that takes people, plants, and animals back into deep evolutionary time to an unobserved, unknown, hypothetical last universal common ancestor (LUCA). Whatever this organism was, they maintain, it was the ancestor of all life and evolved in turn from nonliving chemicals.

Since its grand opening on September 2, 2019, the ICR Discovery Center has encouraged thousands of visitors from all over the world with science that proclaims Scripture. Thursday, September 5, the Institute for Creation Research and the Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce hosted a special event to both welcome the Discovery Center into the chamber and celebrate its five-year anniversary in the North Texas community.

Woolly mammoths of the Ice Age¹ were once found in huge numbers in Siberia, northern Europe, and North America.

Organic remains from “prehistoric” animals such as dinosaurs are incredibly significant finds, and so it is with woolly mammoths.² For example, scientists found a huge mammoth skull (Mammuthus primigenius) sticking out of the water of a Siberian lake on the Yamal peninsula. Wool,... More...

Scientists have long endeavored to comprehend the transformations that take place in trees and plants throughout the autumn season. While lacking complete knowledge, they possess sufficient understanding to explain the fundamental aspects of these spectacular displays. Interestingly, the colorful leaves are not only aesthetically pleasing, they also serve a crucial role in the trees’ survival.

Trees with seasonal foliage ar... More...

Flood geologists expect to find marine fossils mixed in the same layers as land animal and land plant fossils. We see it all over the world.^1,2 Scientists can directly observe the results of massive waves, created by tectonic activity, that crashed across the continents.¹ The global Flood caused many animals and plants to be transported both onto the land and offshore, too.

A recent discovery in Wales brings... More...

The problem with mixing long ages and the Bible stems from how someone interprets Genesis 1 and 2. If these chapters are read as symbolic and/or poetic (not as a literal, historical account of how God created the universe), the question then becomes: How should the rest of Genesis—and the Bible—be interpreted? The answer is a subjective determination. As it turns out, exegeting—... More...

Animals communicate but not with language. Where did language come from and why do we humans all use it? Evolution-based answers are restricted to options that leave out a Creator, even when evidence points right to Him. Conventional researchers have long grasped at any skinny straw that might bolster the belief that language evolved. The latest such straw seems skinnier than ever, and it comes with an inadvertent admission of a creation-fr... More...

A recent discovery of a crocodile-size tetrapod (four-legged animal) in high latitudes has some conventional scientists baffled.¹ How could cold-blooded animals survive in cold-temperature regions? And, according to the evolutionary story, these salamander-like animals lived in the waning moments of an Ice Age, making the cold even more extreme. Previously, animals like this were found only in warm climates.¹ What chan... More...

Tooth growth patterns in fossils of the mouse-like Jurassic mammal Krusatodon show that it grew slowly and had a “surprisingly long” lifespan compared to mammals of similar size today.¹ A paper in Nature describes two “exceptionally complete” Krusatodon specimens, one an adult and the other a juvenile, that were found on Scotland’s Isle of Skye.² The fossils are dated ... More...
