To be blunt, people who insist that we are all doomed because climate change is an existential threat are hard to take seriously. There have been many extinction predictions  which have failed spectacularly . Further, the secular science industry has a history of making pronouncements on things they do not fully understand. For example, secularists did not understand DNA, so they assumed certain areas were "junk." Creationists disagreed and were vindicated . Climate is a tricky thing, and those tinhorns famously ignore pertinent data. Also, scientists are learning that they need to be learning. Illustration of Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano eruption. Yunqian Zhu , NOAA  CIRES (usage does not imply endorsement) Biblical creationists believe that God keeps his promises and that humans are not going to burn up the world he has given us to care for. For the most part, climate scientists are evolutionists (including geologically) and believe in uniformitarianism (gradual pr...

Go out on some clear night and look up at the stars, realizing the beauty that the Creator has provided. Get away from city lights and see more stars. People have built telescopes to see even more. The Hubble space telescope provided amazing images, and the Webb has yielded truly amazing images. You probably know that one reason the James Webb Space Telescope was put up there in the first place was to support the Big Bang and cosmic evolution stories. Instead, it has caused consternation in the deep time camp. Big Wheel galaxy (cropped), Wikimedia Commons / Safiy14 (PD) Since galaxies have many stars, sometimes in the multiple millions, they are rather complex structures. Some formation stories (such as galaxies merging) would ruin their shapes. Cosmologists have their stories about how galaxies formed, but there is no observational evidence to back up the stories. The JWST was pointed at what was assumed to be the early universe...it did not go well. Creationist predictions were conf...

Paleontologists see what appears to be fuzz in dinosaur fossils, so they tell a tale of protofeathers. Since most evolutionists believe that dinosaurs evolved into birds, the story needs plot points. If dinosaurs had feathers, they must have originated from something, so this possible fuzz is mow protofeathers . They keep majoring on minors, tap dancing around numerous fundamental flaws in their scenario. F'rinstance, the skeletal compositions between birds and dinosaurs are radically different. Also, feathers have specified complexity and there are different feathers for different functions. Fuzzy T. rex made with AI Image Generator What would dinofuzz do for the animal? Make it cute? Mayhaps scientists could venture further into Making Things Up™ and give dinofuzz and "evolutionary purpose", such as a defense mechanism because it tickles predators. It may have been for warmth. When looked at in just the right way, it could resemble hair, so they were going to evolve int...

Atheists and other evolutionists have a tendency to use the word evolution  loosely, conflating change  and variation  with universal common ancestry. That bait 'n' switch trick is used to fool people into believing that Darwin was right, so there is no Creator. If anti-creationists bothered to learn what we believe and teach, they would learn that natural selection , speciation, and other variations are accepted by most creation science models. Also, many evolutionists misunderstand and misrepresent natural selection. Consider the alleged evolution of Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades. Burmese python in Everglades (slightly cropped), USFWS / Susan Jewell ( CC BY 2.0 ) These big snakes are native to Southeast Asia (the name kind of gives that away), but some people illegally have them in Florida . (I wonder how many pythons there were named Monty? Just something I had to squeeze in here.) They escape or get turned loose, and are an invasive species that causes ha...

The existence of soft tissues in dinosaur fossils has been a tremendous problem for evolutionists, so they have spent a great deal of time working at the fudge factory. (That is, fudging rescuing devices for the problem.) Some appear to mitigate the damage when important details are omitted. A one-off anomaly or two could be set aside, but there are numerous examples of blood vessels, proteins, DNA, and all that good stuff existing for alleged millions of years. Reality sits at the back of the narrative bus; the story is more important. Some scientists as well as Darwin's Flying Monkeys™ on teh interwebz denied their existence at first, but many are finally admitting the existence of soft tissues. They cannot get past biblical creationists who point out the facts and implications. Smug evolutionists have come up with yet another rescuing device called crosslinking . They think they can keep their deep time and use it to evosplain other things dear to their cold hearts. Logic? No t...

Some folks consider Elon Musk a visionary, making long-held hopes of going to Mars seem possible. It appears that he is not consulting with scientists about the journey. Radiation from the earth to the moon was bad enough, but traveling  farther away could be disastrous to travelers . Dust on earth gets unsightly and makes people sneeze. The dust on the moon was different than ours, causing problems for the Apollo astronauts. It could conceivably tear their suits, and it was a great concern for protecting their equipment. Then there is Mars dust. Curiosity rover takes pictures of Mars dust storm, NASA / JPL-Caltech / MSSS (usage does not imply endorsement) Aside from looking for life and trying to support dust-to-Darwin evolution, devices sent to Mars did some analysis of the land. That dust contains dangerous chemicals. It also has electrostatic charges. Also, some of it is so fine, particles cannot be coughed out of the lungs. To make things worse, it moves. There are huge dust ...

Concerns were raised about the increase in mental illnesses in Australian students, and other countries (especially the formerly United States) should follow suit. Worldviews have consequences, and students are being indoctrinated with the Darwinian worldview. As I have said many times, atheism essentially teaches negativity. That is, we are the products of the Big Bang, then minerals-to-microscopist evolution, there is no final ultimate justice, rewards, punishment. When you die, you are worm food. That is the evolutionary message of hope. No wonder people are messed up. Sunrise in the forest, RGBStock / Alex Bruda The study revealed that the Christian worldview gives hope, which is effective against mental illnesses. There is  a final Judgment and justice, Jesus is coming back for his people, you can be raised from the dead and be with him in glory, and more. If studies like the one in Australia continue, it would be a good idea for them to examine the fact that evolutionism is n...

Several opinions exist regarding the nature and cause of autism, but they are disparate. Many fingers point to vaccines.   Vaccines do prevent diseases and save lives , there can be no doubt about that. Ever heard, "Correlation is not causation?" Children are diagnosed with autism at the same age range of receiving vaccines. That is insufficient evidence, and fallacious.  It has been suggested that chemicals and additives in processed foods play a part in causing it. There are other suspects as well, and deeper research is a must. Symbols of autism, Pixabay / Katamaheen Many people have autism to one extent or another. We may not even  be aware of others who have it. Indeed, some have been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome later in life and others may not know they have it. Autism manifests in different ways, and people may have hidden brilliant traits. Unfortunately, much of medical science is not only based on molecules-to-mycologist evolution, but also has a gre...

Quark-to-quartermaster evolution requires deep time for the propagation of its stories, and also to make evolutionary stories seem plausible in the first place. Geological evolution provides whatever billions or millions of years that biological evolutionists require. One serious limitation in these fields is that secular scientists have been taught to think in evolutionary paradigms. Maverick thinking beyond uniformitarianism is rare. Many scientists are willing to fit in with the crowd and play with chunks of time to make Darwin smile. Doing lazy research while restricting interpretations of data to yield expected results are not uncommon. Geological interests at Colorado Springs, Unsplash / Taylor Burnfield Those canyons in central Colorado? Carved out by rivers over millions of years, they insist. Other explanations are neglected, and the expected conclusions are supported by limited attempts at empirical research. Dating methods based on assumptions and circular reasoning make the...

A few years back, I posted an article by biblical creationists proposing that one way animals spread around the world after the Genesis Flood was by rafting. Misotheists had a grand time ridiculing it — unaware that evolutionists had been catching onto that idea. In a grandiose display of evoporn, Darwinists demonstrate that they believe reality does not compare with pure imagination: Iguanas rafted from North America to Fiji thirty-four million fanciful years ago. They must have because they live there now — which is the fallacy of  affirming the consequent . Rafting iguanas and rainbow of imagination, made by DeepAI This peer-reviewed  story is gelastic for several reasons. One is that there is no plausible mechanism. Another is that desert iguanas, not the swimming type, are the supposed ancestors of those in Fiji. Third, they could not survive such a trip. Yes, lizards have been seen rafting and presumed to successfully make some trips — but nothing nearly as long as this ...

Ever heard of a scientocracy? The -cracy suffix is familiar, and comes from the Greek. It means rule . Scientists would give information to political leaders so a society could be led by science. That means interpretations, and the the secular science industry tends to espouse atheistic scientism , so that would be a bad idea. Still, elitists are trying to have governmental influence in America. They despise President Trump but adored leftist administrations because they allowed secularists to leech taxpayer money. Leech leeching, Pixabay / No photographer listed (modified at PhotoFunia ) You have probably heard of the Department of Government Efficiency that Donald Trump and Elon Musk set up to find waste and fraudulent use of government spending. The secular science industry is furious — furious , I tell you. They resist the idea of being curtailed, preferring to spend our money on rilly rilly st00pid stuff (see " Laugh Lines: Latest Lame Legends for Darwin  for some exampl...

It seems that many believers in universal common descent are willfully ignorant of problems in evolution, choosing to believe despite  the evidence. Indeed, my encounters with evolutionists on social(ist) media reveal faith statements of how they accept evolution. Period. I can easily imagine them writing such misplaced faith statements on "science" platforms with beatific smiles and genuflection. Are such true believers denying the facts, such as how scientists cannot explain the origins of feathers? They have been studying them for a mighty long time, you know. Feathers up close, Pexels / Jan Kopřiva Because of the presupposition that all life evolved from a common ancestor, the idea that feathers evolved from fish scales seems slightly less absurd. Also, there are different kinds of scales, so which kind supposedly brought forth feathers? Keep in mind that a tenet of evolution is gradual change over long periods of time. The fossil record should show feathers developing f...

On this site and others, many examples of shoddy science, corrupt research, bad logic, and outright fraud by secularists have been exhibited. People may shrug their shoulders and trot on because they do not care about origins research. It happens in other areas of science in ways that can affect everyone. Misconduct is rampant in the secular science industry. Many papers submitted for peer review have been retracted, but the reasons are often obscure. Pernaps the research could not be reproduced, fraud was involved, and more. Then we have the sophistry of Alzheimer's disease research. Medical lab work, Pixabay / Belova59 The word sophistry  is far removed from its original use in Greece about 450 BC. That was a person who taught certain things to children of nobility. Now it is used to mean someone who wants to prove a point but uses deceptive wording for persuasion. This kind of sophistry is common in promoting Darwinism but is also found in other scientific areas. Research on a d...

Today is the anniversary of the first human in space, the Soviet Union sent Yuri Gagarin on an orbit of Earth that lasted 108 minutes. Nikita Khrushchev did not know that Yuri was secretly a Christian  living in that atheistic regime. While there was science and technology involved, the flight had goals that were primarily for military and propaganda value. Of course, the USSR believed in evolution, but they were probably not concerned with finding extraterrestrial life — certainly not like obsessive secularists later. Cranky Alien image furnished by Why?Outreach The space aliens are still screaming silence . Secularists are sure of abiogenesis somewhere, sometime, so alien civilizations must have evolved. These scientists are offering speculations that smack of desperation, even saying that a null result still shows hope. (No, Skippy, it shows nothing.) If a bacterium was found on Mars, these jaspers would be ecstatic, but they would have to prove that it was native to Mars. ...

When people feel burdened, they often seek out counselors. Good friends can be helpful but problems may be cause so much discomfort, a person wants an expert. As in so many things, worldviews matter. Everyone has a worldview . It is very unfortunate that most schools of psychology are humanistic. That is, they reject the God who made us and instead draw from atheism and evolutionism: Everything began with the Big Bang, the cosmos evolved, we are star stuff and (by accident) made ourselves evolve into humans, and when you die, you are worm food. Fabulous consel, Frederick! Creepy AI-generated Charles Darwin as a psychiatrist, made at  Simplified Scientism is compatible with the foolishness of evolutionary psychology  and secular humanism. It is the belief that all the answers in life are found through science. Of course, their definition of science rejects the Creator and, like atheism, cannot be consistently lived. Joy, peace, love, reason, science itself — all are immaterial ...

When reading numerous creation science articles, one can gain knowledge on many topics. A subject that frequently occurs is that birds are more intelligent than most people think. (Of course, when American Robins stand on concrete roads listening for worms, their intelligence is questionable.) Crows are demonstrably more intelligent than apes, and their corvid relatives are also quite bright. Darwin's disciples have demonstrated the truth that evolutionary thinking is unnecessary. On the other hand, some seem compelled to insist on inserting evolution to make their research seem more sciencey and stuff. Crows in a tree, Unsplash / Foad Roshan In the post featured below, the first two subjects do not spend much time on Darwinian ideas, so real science may be possible in areas of emu intelligence and energy efficiency in sea birds. Crows are smart, so what does "caw" mean? (I say, "Hi, guys!" but they do not reply.) AI was hooked up to study voice inflections for ...

Some of us are not surprised when bad science and malfeasance are found among Darwinoids, but some stuff gets me on the prod . They have a materialistic worldview that requires deep time, so interpreting evidence through those glasses is to be expected. Manipulation of that data is another story. Know that "tangled web we weave" line about practicing to deceive? The so-called earliest bird has been discovered in Antarctica. Purveyors of evoporn are web=tangled indeed, conflicting stories are more fun than a pig in a steel barrel. Ducks and Ducklings , John Frederick Herring, Sr. (1850) Evolution is not a person, except when it makes choices and does experimentation. That's pantheistic, old son. The Chicxulub impact caused dinosaur demise, but that story is unraveling and not all dinosaur scientists accepted it anyway. The discovered bird is just like a modern duck, but gets its own classification — because evolution. Wait'll you get a load of the guy who has faith th...

From the extremely silly material turned in with straight faces as "research," it is no wonder that the secular science industry does not want financial scrutiny. It does not take a scientist to use logic and coherence to determine a...truly bizarre paper. Evolution is supposed to be without purpose because it is not an entity. Sure, figures of speech can treat something like a person, everyone does that. Then Darwin's votaries really do get into pantheism and treat evolution as a being. Luis Zaman claims evolution itself evolves. Video game console and effects, Pixabay / Vika_Glitter The worshipful description of evolution evolving because evolution is evolution and evolution evolves probably embarrassed even Rusty Swingset and the hands at the Darwin Ranch (up near Deception Pass). What was Zaman's research method? Essentially, a glorified video game that oversimplified their subjects. The software itself is known to be faulty. This tinhorn seems utterly committed t...

Recent speculations by minerals-to-magician evolutionists display tenacity, but precious little in the way of science. A new story is...truly bizarre. Remember how evolution is supposed to be without purpose?  In addition, it is not an easy thing to accomplish. We have seen that abiogenesis (chemical evolution) is essentially impossible. But it, and also evolution, are two of many presuppositions made by Darwin's acolytes. Add in teleology and pantheism, and suddenly evolution is not so difficult after all — especially after Earth's environment reached a permissive state. Nebula W51,  NASA  / JPL-Caltech (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) Apparently, Earth is an entity. Well, only entities can have desires, make choices, work toward goals, and all that good stuff. This would have also happened all over the universe. Although astrobiologists get paid for studying nonexistent alien life, they're confident it exists. Further, it supposedly has evolved and pr...

A couple of days ago, I was out riding and happened upon my friend Hammond Suisse out riding fences. He would find a place where the fence had a flaw, and either fixed it or made a note to come back later with more equipment. We rode together a spell, and conversation turned to how I had been fighting off a lingering cold. Hammond said, "We have an amazingly complex immune system that God engineered for us. After the fall of man, it gets overwhelmed sometimes." He glanced at a scrape on his arm. Arms and hands, Pexels / Daria Liudnaya (modified at PhotoFunia ) "Seems to me that I got something in common with immune systems." "How so?" I asked. "We're both riding fences. You know, doing work that's often unseen but sure is important. Churches, stores, companies have often unseen people doing work to keep those things going." He glance down. "I better clean that up. Good thing I'm almost done," he added. Then he asked, "...
