The more nature is studied, the more complex it becomes. For example, microscopic cells were believed to be simple and described as "grapes in jelly." Equipment has improved over the years and now cells are known to be extremely complex. Going the other way, the cosmos is amazingly huge. Dwarves, giants, and other kinds of stars have been known for years, but with those powerful telescopes, new terminology has been utilized. Now we have supergiants, hypergiants, and other names that seem to be used because astronomers are running out of adjectives. Then there are galaxies. The Passion of Creation  with JWST image from  NASA  (who does not endorse this site), both modified Remember, galaxies are where most stars are grouped. The James Webb Space Telescope was expected to find what the universe looked like soon after the Big Bang. It did not go well. Instead, numerous problems (such as large galaxies ) are going against the standard secular model of cosmic formation and evo...

Although secularists often resent the distinction, there are two kinds of science . Operational  science deals with the here and now: analyzing, building, treating illnesses, etc. When science is used to attempt to explain what happened in the past, it is historical  science — for obvious reasons. When scientists propose ideas for what happened in the past, there should be evidence for their claims. Biblical creationists believe that the Genesis Flood was a global catastrophe. Two aspects of Flood geology include the runoff of the waters and the accompanying erosion. Rocks showing layers near Hurley, NY, Unsplash / Cowboy Bob Sorensen Small areas of erosion are no big deal, but geologists know that there is continental  erosion. There are several ways of measuring it. Coal is important for this process in some areas. The lack of it in the Great Plains and the flatness of the area makes it very difficult to estimate erosion. Other areas have domes with erosion around them....

One source of mirth for professing atheists and other evolutionists is that biblical creationists believe humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time, but dinosaurs have since kicked the bucket and joined the choir invisible. Their narrative demands millions of years between us and them. Creationists have shown problems with deep time, and even some secular scientists admit that the evidence is severely lacking. Indeed, there are legends of  creatures that greatly resembling dinosaurs in human history — and there are other evidences as well. Atheists despise these things as they point to recent creation. St. Lifard and the dragon, Jean Bourdichon , ca. 1500 (PD) This picture looks like he just asked if it wanted to go walkies. Way back in the sixth century AD, a monk known as St. Lifard (or Lipardus, among others) was responsible for putting an end to a troublesome dragon. Was there truth to the story? I dunno, especially since the stories of his saintly exploits are far-fetched....

It is interesting to see articles and videos about various geological features, many of which are found in the formerly United States. Down 'Straya way, there are also some impressive formations. Consider the Three Sisters in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales. This popular tourist attraction presents strong evidence for the Genesis Flood , and Dr. Tasman Walker of Creation Ministries International wrote an article about it. This raised the ire of some Australian skeptics, and one wrote an article to refute him. It did not go well, Three Sisters, Wikimedia Commons / Diliff ( CC BY-SA 2.5 ) For some time, I have held the opinion that a skeptic is someone who is not convinced of something, but is willing to change his mind when persuasive evidence is presented. It seems that a skeptic today is someone who refuses to be convinced of something despite the evidence. Someone pointed out that these unyielding skeptics would more correctly be called cynics . These skeptics (atheists) d...

It seems that when one conspiracy theory runs out of steam, another takes its place. The "conspiracy" part often means that the item in question is doubted by many, so there is a conspiracy to suppress it. Theory? Codswallop! The Pyramids of Giza have fascinated people for thousands of years. Pyramids are occasionally given mystical significance. In the 1970s, there was a belief that items in pyramid shapes produced a field that could keep blades sharp, preserve food, and more. Now it is said that there is a city hidden under Giza. Khafre's Pyramid Complex, Flickr / Institute for the Study of the Ancient World ( CC BY 2.0 ) Researchers claim that satellite technologies made it possible for them to find images of structures beneath the Pyramids. Other scientists are skeptical, and they have valid reasons. One is that the results cannot be replicated. Also, instead of going through the usual processes to announce discoveries, these researchers had a press conference on You...

Proponents of descent with modifications evolution have boxed themselves in with their fundamentally flawed worldview, but they have a rescuing device. A big one, because the problem is serious. An amniote track fossil was found in the wrong place according to evolutionary predictions. Researchers see the tracks and make a story about what went on. One reptile went across the ground, rain lightly fell, and others ran across the ground later. However, it is obvious that tracks disappear quickly. The scientists did not say how these were preserved. Modification of The Passion of Creation , Leonid Pasternak (1892) One problem for secularists is that it takes the right conditions to preserve the fossil tracks, and those would come from the Genesis Flood. What they cannot wave off is the dating of the tracks. Reptiles have always been reptiles since creation, and the tracks support what creationists say. Rewrite the evolution textbooks? Why, sure! They do it all the time. Reptiles belong to...

Those rascally disciples of Charlie Darwin, constantly trying to find out how something evolved — even if they do not understand it. A huge undertaking to map the human brain demonstrated that there are billions of neurons, billions of other cells, trillions of connections. Yep, that puppy is complex! Since the brain is so involved, efforts at mapping it have been unsuccessful. Scientists also do not understand its function. Also, understanding consciousness eludes the scientists that admit it exists. Yet somehow, some think they are learning how it evolved. X-ray-style image of skull and brain, Freeimages /  Miranda Knox What is troubling is that evolution zealots learn of studies that purport to demonstrate evolution, then assume the researchers are correct. After that, they are more convinced by the deception they received and even try to badger creationists with this kind of hooey. The study was wrong in several ways, and if researchers did not have their heads stuck in their s...

A common charge leveled against biblical creationists is that we deny science, but even a cursory examination of our material puts that lie to rest. (Someone said that we deny bad  science, which is true.) Notice that this accusation seems to only appears in discussions of origins. Such people act like atheists and believers in universal common descent are the ones who truly believe science, but the secular science industry uses deception and outright fraud to promote the current version of Darwin's Victorian myth. We need to keep the pressure on them . Crime scene tape and people, Unsplash / Joshua Coleman Evolutionists often defy laws of logic, such as insisting evidence only fits their  proposals, suppressing facts, redefining words, and more. Indeed, some seem to be trying to make their own "laws" without scientific due process . There are also major areas that evolution itself is used in attempts to circumvent established scientific laws. Those include the Law of Bio...

On this site alone, many instances of Darwin's disciples galloping off with new discoveries that allegedly demonstrate evolution are displayed. Evolutionists ignore possible alternative explanationsfor data, important facts are neglected, bad logic is used, and more. Unfortunately, some Christians use the same poor thinking. Some of it is based on dramatic claims, such as drilling into Hell itself . The gospel is true, we do not need to "wow" people into believing it — especially when we  are being gullible and not checking the material. There are several artifacts said to depict dinosaurs that are false. Dinosaur on a road, Pixabay / Guo WuYou , modified at PhotoFunia Obviously, biblical creationists want to spread the truth. One part of it is evidence that humans and dinosaurs were contemporaneous for a while, and such evidence is found in historical accounts and numerous artifacts . It becomes a problem when we are in a hurry to show something impressive that turns out...

It is quite reasonable to wonder why Christians hold the Bible in such high esteem, rejecting the texts considered sacred by other religions. I did something similar, having been raised in a liberal religion. The Fundamentalist Christian school I attended raised many questions for me. When I confronted teachers and schoolmates with questions, they used the Bible as their authority — not books of any other religion. I spent a great deal of time reading the Bible, references, and apologetics books. Where is this or that doctrine taught? Bible outdoors, Unsplash /  Aaron Burden The liberal rebellion I had eventually reversed and I became more conservative and more educated. Biblical teachings appealed to me, and I learned that creation is true and fish-to-fool evolution is a lie. What played a key part after the school days (1979?) was attending the adult Sunday School of another church. They were listening to cassette teaching tapes of Dr. Walter Martin and cults. Why are we right an...

by Cowboy Bob Sorensen  Edited 14 July 2025 Scientific research is unfriendly to atoms-to-ape evolution, and the icon of ninety-eight percent similarity of human and chimpanzee similarity has been long been disputed. Indeed, it is based on bad science that is omitted from the secular science industry propaganda [ 1 ]. Research in chimpanzee genome supports biblical creation science [ 2 , 3 ] instead of evolution. Darwin's disciples get mighty irritated when people say that we evolved from apes or monkeys. We supposedly split from a common ancestor that looks like a monkey [ 4 ] — but they are assuming its appearance. Human-Chimpanzee DNA, made at Night Cafe , then removebg The number for human-chimpanzee similarity varies by a few percentage points, but usually about ninety-eight percent. Darwin's disciples need such a close match because apes and humans allegedly diverged around seven million years ago. That means evolutionists cannot account for a larger percentage difference...

The largest shark in the world today is the whale shark, an endangered resident of tropical waters that grows around 17 meters (55.7 feet). Be amazed but not afraid because it eats plankton. Something that might have kept people cautious when swimming was  Otodus megalodon . New information on megalodon has been issued where it could have grown up to 24.3 meters (80 feet), and it apparently was a predator that would eat lots of things, including other predators. It could have lived for hundreds of years, so it did not reach maturity any time soon. Otodus megalodon , The Royal Society Publishing / Jose L. Herraiz et al ( CC BY 4.0 ) Biblical creationists are interested in growth calculations for the megalodon because of how humans and organisms lived for extended periods until after the Genesis Flood. More data are needed to be certain of calculations, but it is also reasonable to compare their size (and therefore age) to the Greenland shark for reference. Fossil remains of the gia...

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...

Proponents of minerals-to-musician evolution are passionate about their beliefs, often refusing to admit that biblical creationists have pointed out many problems in the current story. Some folks have said that scientists are in agreement about evolution, but disagree about details. That remark is self-refuting if you study on it. Also, there are scientists who admit that there are serious difficulties, which has been known for many years. Darwin's disciples ignore those comments or accuse creationists of " quote mining ." However, they fail to show that we are misusing the quotes. Pond, Unsplash /  Cowboy Bob Sorensen  (cropped) While many evolutionary scientists seem to go with the flow and think what they are told (but criticizing the predominant paradigm can end a career), some have enough standing to speak their radical ideas. While biblical creationists show that evidence supports a creation orchard instead of Darwin's Tree of Life, it has been said that evolut...

It is interesting that atheists and other evolutionists strongly react to biblical creationists discussing created kinds , almost as if the current system of taxonomy was devised by a higher power. Ironically, this system used by secularists was originally developed by Carl Linnaeus, who was a creationist. Nobody seems to be advocating the replacement of the current system. It is pretty useful for reference points. Biblical creationists study the created kinds (baraminology), and most of them place kind  near the family  level of current taxonomy. Basement Cat photo by Cowboy Bob Sorensen, enhanced with FotoSketcher It may come as a shock to some people, but facts can fit opposing models; "Their" facts and "our" facts is false. Natural selection is an accepted part of most creation science models, for example. We also have no problem with speciation and hybridization. Creationists have the cat kind, dog kind, horse kind, and so on. There are variations within them ...

Interesting how the western part of America has so many things of interest to geology and paleontology, yes? Lots of national parks and national monuments protected by the government. Most are quite large. Dinosaur National Monument spans parts of two states, Utah and Colorado. This national monument appears in science news frequently, especially because of dinosaurs. Obviously. There is also some interesting geology. That and geology bring along deep time propaganda. Someone can also go camping, river rafting, hiking, and things. Hiker at Dinosaur National Monument, NPS / Jacob W. Frank (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) The uniformitarian narrative has rocks building up over hundreds of millions of years. Slowly. The Morrison Formation contains the dinosaurs, and they say it is 150 million years old. The story of how the fossils formed is out of kilter with the usual tale. There are details of what is actually observed with the fossils and the rocks that are far be...

Right from the get-go, I need to point out that a few things have changed since the article featured below was written in 2019. The so-called New Atheism is fading and several of its primary apologists are losing their impact. Even so, the material and principles are still useful. One of the most obstreperous and arrogant professing atheists is Bill Nye. He makes remarks against biblical creationists and the Genesis Flood as if he has superior knowledge, but is repeatedly shown to be wrong. C. Richard Dawkins and Neil deGrasse Tyson also make false claims about us. Shattering atheism image by Why?Outreach Bill Nye had a highly-publicized debate with Ken Ham a few years ago. He misrepresented creationists and used a passel of fallacious attacks , including equivocating evolution with science . He was claiming that creationists would not have reasoning skills and essentially saying that we brainwash our children. That's a lie, old son. Dawkins and Tyson also misrepresent creationi...

Mammoths seemed to be doing rather well during the Ice Age, but the number shrank and eventually they all joined the choir invisible. Scientists want to know why. A couple of the major camps slap leather with each other because they think they have the correct answer. Based on uniformitarian deep time, of course. One camp thinks that the human population surged and the Clovis people (possibly the first Americans) hunted them to extinction. Spear marks like the ones the Clovis gang used were found on woolly mammoth skeletons, but this idea has flaws. Mammoths image, Flickr /  Andrew Wilkinson  ( CC BY-SA 2.0 ) Another idea is that mammoths died off because of climate change. (Yes, there is such a thing, but not the kind used by leftist fearmongers.) The scientists who think that the critters died from it point out that spears were unlikely to be so effective in hunting, and the marks were instead from harvesting the meat. This scenario has many problems as well, so secularists...

Weird dreams causing fatigue, work pressure, and other things made me want to just be alone. My reading by lantern light was interrupted by the sound of a buckboard approaching. I inwardly groaned, but was pleasantly surprised to see Stevia Dolce, the baker from the Darwin Ranch. She brought croissants. Those and her pleasant demeanor put aside my gloom. Stevia heard Dewey Lye and others at the ranch talking about efforts to clone a woolly mammoth and was intensely curious. Yes, there is talk about that among certain scientists. Mammoth sculpture image cropped from Pixabay /  hansbenn Using a passel of deep time and evolutionary presuppositions, scientists think that humans killed off the Ice Age animals in Siberia. They brought in several cold-weather critters to deal with the wetland, but it only got worse. Cloning a mammoth (well, a hybrid with an existing elephant's DNA and the mammoth DNA) should solve the problem. Not hardly! Using a biblical creation science Ice Age model wo...

Bwasted wabbits brought to Australia, then became a nightmare for agriculture! Cuteness evaporates for those viewing them after they damaged crops. Only twenty-four rabbits, and they did what rabbits do: Eat and make offspring. Hundreds of millions of offspring. The conditions were right, since there was great eating and no significant predators. Biblical creationists can use this fluffy bunny plague as an example of population growth and apply it to the Genesis Flood. There are several factors to take into consideration. Rabbit, Flickr / Marit & Toomas Hinnosaar ( CC BY 2.0 ) Scoffers say that it is ridiculous that the populations of humans and animals can be rebuilt after the Flood by so few specimens. They need to learn to do the math and figure in exponential growth. Another objection is that inbreeding depression would result. Today, yes. (Charles Darwin was concerned about his offspring when he married a first cousin.) Back at the time of the Flood, genetic degradation was n...
