The fascinating pollination of plants has been complex from the beginning of creation. A recent article in Science magazine reported how cycads—large, palm-like seed plants—use infrared radiation as a pollination signal to beetles.1,2
The evolution-defying cycad is finely tuned to emi... More...

A small portion of surface ice in Antarctica is called blue-ice areas (BIAs), and for good reason. Air bubbles were squeezed out of the ice, giving it a clear, bluish tinge. The ice is beautiful, but is it as old as evolutionists claim?
In 2025, scientists discovered supposed “6-million-year-old ice” in blue ... More...
“For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.” (1 Corinthians 2:2)
When Paul first entered the Greek city of Corinth, he had just come from nearby Athens and his encounter with its humanistic philosophers at Mars’ Hill (Acts 17:18–18:1). Corinth, ... More...
“All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.” (Psalm 45:8)
One of the most beautiful of the Christmas hymns (though rarely sung at Christmas) is “Out of the Ivory Palaces,” telling how the King of heaven left His heavenly home and laid aside His perfumed, royal clothing to enter &l... More...
“Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:9 –11)
At Christmas time, Ch... More...
What if a fossil no bigger than a grain of rice showed engineering so precise that it still puzzles scientists? That is the intrigue surrounding Salterella, a tiny cone-shaped creature recently studied by Virginia Tech researchers. Their work highlights a surprising feature—a shell made from two different minerals. They describe it as an evolutionary “experimentation” from the start of animal life.1 Yet t... More...
Evolutionary naturalism is locked into seeing the entire living world as having evolved from a single common ancestor many millions of years ago.1 If true, the fossil record should document this slow and gradual change with untold transitional forms that smoothly bridge one kind of creature to another as depicted by Darwin’s tree of life. But
Darwin’s tree illustrated a long macro... More...
A recent study published in Nature Ecology & Evolution claims that the “impossible” actually happened—not just once, but three different times.1
Impossible Ocean Barriers
The impossibilities began with the discovery of a new fossil rhinoceros species on Devon Island in the Canadian High Arctic. This smaller and thinner version of today’s African rhino was... More...
People following—or actively involved in—creation science are no doubt aware of the incredible molecular motor called the flagellum,1,2 an ultra-tiny, whip-like appendage on bacteria that enables them to move in an aqueous environment. Recently, research involving bacteria that use sugar-fueled currents and molecular gearboxes has addressed a fascinating dual-function motor that is not associated with the flagellum.<s...

The supposed evolution of bipedalism continues to be a major obstacle in the narrative that humans evolved from apelike ancestors.1,2
For example, in 2024, researchers from New York University reported, “While scientists have long been intrigued by the question of how humans’ bipedal stance and movement evolved from a quadrupedal ancestor, neither past studies nor fossil records have permitted the reconstru... More...
"And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O LORD GOD Almighty, which are, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned." (Revelation 11:16-17)
This is the final reference in the Bible to the giving of thanks. It... More...
Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.” (Proverbs 4:7)
During this season of thanksgiving, let us reflect on one of our Heavenly Father’s greatest gifts—wisdom. Wisdom is the ability to apply knowledge correctly. The Holy Bible is the ultimate source of wisdom, teaching u... More...
A remarkable fossil find in Australia has scientists buzzing—literally. In the Talbragar Fish Beds of New South Wales, researchers discovered a beautifully preserved midge fossil, Telmatomyia talbragarica. The study, published in Gondwana Research, identifies it as the oldest known freshwater midge in the Southern Hemisphere.1 With its delicate wings and unusual anchoring disc, this fossil offers a fascina...

There is nothing so beautiful (and sometimes breathtaking) than observing creatures designed with the ability to undergo fluorescence, the biological emission of light (also called bioluminescence).1 Five scientists defined bioluminescence as “the chemical reaction between a substrate (luciferin) and an enzyme (luciferase) resulting in light emission in a living organism.”2 What was the origin of such an am...

Recently, the prestigious Royal Society published a fascinating paper regarding partial haemoglobin preservation in dinosaur fossils. The study’s authors are from North Carolina State University—a world leader in this area. They wrote,

New species that are 100% dinosaur continue to be discovered by paleontologists with increasing frequency. One such recent discovery, described as “both the oldest and most complete skeleton of [the pachycephalosaur] group found to date,”1 has generated interest within the scientific community.
The specimen, named Zavacephale rinpoche, was found in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert and is dated to approxi... More...
For generations, the Bible has faced skepticism and challenges to its credibility. Critics have questioned whether it is merely a collection of stories or a true account of history. Yet time and again, archaeological discoveries have affirmed the Bible's accuracy - revealing evidence that supports the events, people, and places recorded in Scripture.
On November 8, 2025 the ICR Discovery Center invites you to... More...
Supposedly, throughout the past hypothetical millions of years, sub-human primates became man, dinosaurs evolved into birds, and a group of mammals even returned to the oceans to become whales. But also according to evolution theory, the amazing horseshoe crab (order Xiphosura) “goes back practically unchanged to the Triassic period.”1 Natural selection2 and random mutations have not affected these chelicer...

To an ant, the world is written in scent—and they read it with uncanny precision. A single colony can recognize thousands of chemical cues that guide foraging, mark trails, and maintain order. Each ant relies on odor receptors in its antennae to decode this chemical language, with every nerve cell specializing in just one receptor type. But since the genome contains hundreds of receptor genes packed closely together, scientists have l... More...
Imagine a fish designed with such precision that it has thrived in deep, dark ocean waters for generations unchanged, resilient, and wonderfully suited to its world. That’s the coelacanth, a mysterious creature first known from fossils in ancient rock layers. For decades, textbooks claimed it had gone extinct 65 million years ago. But in 1938, the “extinct” fish stunned the scientific community when one was caught alive of... More...
Flood geologists have predicted that plate motion slowed at the end of the Flood year, and now conventional scientists are finding it to be true. A recent study by Colleen Dalton and her colleagues from Brown University in Providence, RI, found that ocean crust production slowed by 35% from 15–6 million years ago, or late in the Tertiary.1 Although we dispute these great ages, the data still indicate a slowdown in plate mov...

A team of researchers led by University of North Dakota planetary scientist Dr. Caleb Strom concluded that the two Uranian moons Ariel and Miranda (directly left and right of pale blue Uranus in the above image, respectively) once had water oceans within their interiors.1,2 They obtained their conclusions, published in the journals Icarus and The Planetary Science Journal, by studying cracks, or stress fractures, on...
