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 ...

Analysis of cut marks on Ice Age bones of a large armadillo-like glyptodont from Argentina suggests that humans killed and used these creatures for food.1,2 The cut marks belonged to fossil remains of a glyptodont in the genus Neosclerocalyptus that was discovered on the banks of the Reconquista River in eastern Argentina. By old-age reckoning, these bones are more than 20,000 years old. The cut marks were consistent with ... More...
There’s nothing more fascinating in the evening sky than the erratic flight of what looks like a bird but is actually a ravenous, feeding bat. Using their amazing sonar,1 they effortlessly capture their fill of insects in the dark.
The evolutionary explanation for bat origins is nonexistent. The fossil record contains no fossils documenting a non-bat ancestor becoming a bat. Paleontologists find only complete and... More...
Entomologists have long been involved in the rewarding field of butterfly research. Recent Lepidopteran discoveries have been incredible and have nothing to do with real, vertical evolution.1–3
Now, artificial intelligence (machine learning or ML) is being utilized to determine visual differences between sexes of birdwing butterflies of Australasia and Southeast Asia.4

Ankylosaurs are herbivorous dinosaurs found in flood rocks. They are classified in the reptilian order of Ornithischia or “bird-hipped” (having a hip design with ischium and pubis bones lying parallel and next to each other).
Their design is unique, with large and small bony shields (bony osteoderms) embedded in their skin and covering their sides and back. The small skulls have fused bony shields attached to the unde... More...
The effects of the Genesis Flood are seen worldwide with deposits of terrestrial animals, such as dinosaurs and many other kinds of animals, often mixed together with marine animals.1–3
Recently, an evolutionary story was published about ancient life along the coasts during the alleged “Age of Dinosaurs.” It included a new crocodilian animal unearthed from sediments in Nevada.4
N... More...
The phylum Arthropoda is the largest animal phylum on the planet. These animals are designed with paired, jointed appendages and a chitinous exoskeleton. ICR’s Dr. Tim Clarey stated,
Arthropods represent a major part of the great evolutionary mystery called the Cambrian Explosion. In fact, they are one of the most common fossils in Cambrian system strata. They appear in the rock layers fully forme... More...
All cells come from previous cells. In order to produce a new cell, the Lord Jesus designed a process called the cell cycle. This is a highly ordered sequence of four events or phases within the cell nucleus, with one phase blending imperceptibly into the next. All of these stages or phases can be seen by looking under the microscope at a section of, for example, Allium (onion) cells.
The cell cycle includes a process most... More...
The amazingly designed pump we call the heart has made evolutionary news recently.
Ffion White of Swansea University in Wales recently stated in an article on heart architecture that, “Despite humans and non-human great apes having a common ancestor, the former has evolved larger brains and the ability to walk or run upright on two feet to travel long distances, likely to hunt.”1 What was not said is that t...

Inspired by God’s creation mandate in Genesis 1:28, humans across the centuries have sought ways to optimize processes, solve problems, and ultimately “subdue” the world for our benefit. The quest to observe and record the laws of nature has taught us many helpful concepts in a variety of fields, particularly in topics related to science and technology.
One example... More...
Current news from the field of paleontology is what creationists expected and even predicted. Whether recent fossil discoveries are invertebrates or vertebrates, they will not document gradual evolutionary progression from one kind into another kind.
Some of the latest examples include a new species of extinct shark named Parvodus ominechonensis that was discovered in Japan.1 Scientists determined it belongs to ... More...
Geophysicist Samantha Hansen and colleagues may have just strengthened evidence for catastrophic plate tectonics (CPT), the leading theoretical model for explaining the Genesis Flood.1 Almost 40 years ago, creation scientist and geophysicist Dr. John Baumgardner suggested that the entire pre-Flood ocean floor logically must have been rapidly subducted into the earth’s mantle during the Flood cataclysm:2,3

"And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born" (Acts 22:28).
The privilege of being a freeborn Roman citizen was indeed a life-saving circumstance to Paul in his defense before the Jewish mob trying to kill him there in Jerusalem (Acts 22:30) when he returne... More...
Physicists at Roskilde University in Denmark have shown that a single equation correctly describes the frequency of wing and fin strokes for a wide array of flying and swimming creatures, including birds, insects, bats, and whales.1,2 They used a technique called dimensional analysis to show that if one divides the square root of an animal’s mass by the surface area of the wing or fin, the result is equal to a constant mult...

Lampreys are a group of strange-looking jawless fish of the order Petromyzontiformes. Since evolutionists reject the biblical origins model, they must embrace these creatures as our ancient ancestors.1 But looking to the fossil record, evolutionists see lampreys going back unchanged for many millions of years. In other words, living fossils argue against the hypothetical evolutionary timeline.

Living fossils have been a challenge to evolutionists ever since Darwin coined the phrase in 1859.1,2 They are members of a living species of creatures that are virtually identical to those known from the fossil record. Andean tapirs, coelacanths, and horseshoe crabs3 are examples.
The gar (Lepisosteidae) is a freshwater fish with long jaws, many teeth, and a cigar-shaped body. They are found only in North A... More...
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have recently confirmed that two galaxies are extremely distant, with one becoming the new record holder as the most distant galaxy from Earth.1,2 The new record-holding galaxy is designated as JADES-GS-z14-0 and is shown in the inset in the above image. By uniformitarian reckoning, this galaxy existed just 290 million years after the supposed Big Bang, yet it looks too mature for ... More...
Fossil experts from University College Cork in Ireland took stunning images of Psittacosaurus skin. The dinosaurs’ belly shows patches of skin that glow orange under UV light. However, the top of this dinosaur’s tail has long fibers that many assume were feather-like bristles. So, these study authors suggest that since this dinosaur had two types of skin, perhaps the evolutionary ancestors of today’s birds did, too.... More...
Have movies and most conventional paleontologists got it all wrong? T. rex and other theropod dinosaurs (the meat-eaters) are often portrayed as intelligent predators that can outmuscle and outsmart their opponents. But is that really supported by science?
A recent study found no compelling evidence that the relative brain size of large theropods, like Tyrannosaurus rex, was any different from that of modern reptile... More...
An evolutionary website recently published “a groundbreaking study” that supposedly identifies a basic, uncomplicated, “simple” creature as the ancient ancestor of all bilaterians (creatures with just one plane in which they can be separated into two equal halves), and this organism supposedly existed 700 million years ago.1
The article begins with a just-so story, addressing an unknown, unobser... More...
A recent study of dinosaur sizes claims to break Bergmann’s rule.1 Bergmann’s rule was named after biologist Carl Bergmann, who in 1847 noticed that warm-blooded animals tended to be larger in cold climates compared to the same animal in a warm climate. Larger body mass tends to help an animal retain more heat, helping animals survive in the cold.
“The fossil record provides a window into completely d... More...
