Sometimes misotheists ask questions of biblical creationists in bad faith, but some Christians may sit back, watching and waiting for an answer. Sometimes people just want to know. One of these is: Where are human fossils from the global Genesis Flood? Interesting that Darwin's disciples challenge creationists, but they act like deep time and evolution are settled. The Flood left many obvious evidences, including fossils and geologic sequences that span continents, but since there are no known human fossils, creationists need to explain why not. Puzzled chimpanzee is puzzled, Pixabay (AI) / olenchic While it is reasonable to ask creationists to back up our claims with physical evidence, it's a mite disingenuous to ignore problems in evolution. Also, secularists need to be consistent. The overwhelming majority of fossils are marine organisms. Several expected types of creatures for the evolution story are poorly represented in the fossil record. Also, evolutionists have problems...

A proponent of stardust-to-psychologist evolution makes a statement, then it gets supported by terms like  scientists think , it could be ,  maybe , and other weasel words. No evidence though. The statement is then accepted by those with atheism spectrum disorder who call it science. Psychologists speculate about the evolution of religion (ignoring the fact that atheism is itself a religion ). Some are speculating that belief in gods is a function of the brain, but an existing part of the brain had to quickly evolve a religion section. No evidence though. Replica painting from the Chauvet cave, Wikimedia Commons / HTO (PD) A psychologist thinks he has evidence for this brain phenomenon. Deep-time presuppositions are fundamental, as human religious artifacts were dated tens of thousands of years ago. Plug in the assumption of atheism as a "default" position (never mind that children are born believing in God ) and biases appear to be confirmed. The real evidence shows that we...

Every once in a while, a fundamentalist evolutionist will assert that the fossils are in order, showing primitive to advanced life forms. The most likely reasons for stating this are ignorance or dishonesty. That is because knowledgeable evolutionists are well aware that the fossil record is disrupted. Indeed, in Origin of Species , the Bearded Buddha himself lamented that the fossil record is incomplete and that transitional forms are missing. Unfortunately, when celebrities like Bill Nye the Propaganda Guy spread falsehoods, evolution believers tend to accept them without question. Trilobyte fossils, Freeimages /  Dave Dyet Non-scientist Nye made that assertion in the 2014 debate with Ken Ham. Bill is not a scientist, let alone, a paleontologist. Obviously, non-scientists make assertions, but such a strong claim should be examined by thinking people. Some wonder why Ham did not respond to that claim, but I suspect that since Nye was doing elephant hurling and the debate was nor f...

A fossil from Scotland named  Westlothiana lizziae received press because it supposedly represents an ancestor for many tetrapods, but the claim has major problems. For one thing, it cannot be supported in paleontology. Secularists blind the public with science, and people think that evolutionists are clever. W. lizziae  was not given a precise age before, but Darwin's disciples were able to massage data and make assumptions to get an age that they wanted. It now lands in a hole in the fossil record. Old Man of Storr, Portree, UK, Unsplash / Diane Rish This hole is called Romer's Gap, where in allegedly millions of years, few fossils are found. (Apparently Darwin's Flying Monkeys™ who frequent social(ist) media and say that there are no gaps in the fossil record have not heard of this.) The transitional form is nowhere near complete, and the dating is forced into the desired place. An allegedly vital piece of animal evolution was first discovered in 1984 in Scotland. Conve...

Large numbers of honey bees are dying off, and it is not just a case of, "Bugs die, so what?" Mount up, ride to the top of the hill, and get the big picture. Living things have their ecological niches, and honey bees are important to many other organisms — including humans. They are the most important pollinators to the survival of many kinds of plants, and they produce honey and beeswax that are important for humans. Flowers attract the bees in a mutually-beneficial relationship. This presents one of several problems for evolutionists. Honey Bees in honeycomb, Pixabay /  PollyDot Bees need pollen to survive, plants produce pollen and need honey bees for its distribution. But according to the evolution story, they did not exist at the same time. Darwinists say wasps existed at that time and honey bees came later. However, there is no compelling evidence to support that concept. Indeed, the evolution of insects which suddenly appeared in the fossil record is also problematic. ...

For a while, the coelacanth was considered a transitional form, using its fins to begin the process of walking. It also disappeared from the fossil record, then reappeared in layers dated later. Whereja go, whadja do? What was probably a backhand at Christianity, they called this reappearance a Lazarus taxon . Thinking people should be given pause because of not only the disappearance and reappearance interpretations of the fossil record, but also the description of the critter's behavior without having seen it in action. The coelacanth has humiliated evolutionists — again. Coelacanth,  NOAA  (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) This fish is endangered, and museums specimens that can be studied are quite rare. After all this time and excitement, the head of one was examined by anatomists. It turns out that much of the anatomy had been wrongly understood for many years. Also, Darwin's disciples say it did not evolve fast enough. Further, all of its internal struc...

Ever since a jumble of bones was discovered in 1974, the myth of Australopithecus afarensis  — nicknamed Lucy — has been contentious. Many supporters of evolution on social(ist) media accept the propaganda from the secular science industry about how it is a definitive link between humans and apelike ancestors. If you study for a spell, this smacks of desperation. The skeleton was assembled from several different critters including humans. One of the vertebrae was that of a baboon, a mistake that lasted over forty years that should not have happened. There are more problems as well. Australopithecus afarensis - forensic facial reconstruction, WikiComm / Cicero Moraes ( CC BY-SA 4.0 ) Sure, there are similarities between apes and humans. Those can be used to support common design as well as common ancestry. This putative human ancestor was clearly designed to live in the trees . Apes do that. One huge difference not to be kicked away is the feet. Footprints at Laetoli were wro...

 Way back in 1947,  Rudolph Zallinger completed a five-year project . He painted a huge mural called  The Age of Reptiles  that can be seen Yale Peabody Museum. It garnered awards, and a section was used on a  US postage stamp in 1970  (Scott catalog 1390). Scientific views of dinosaurs have changed, so some depictions are now inaccurate. Unfortunately, his work was based on a myth promoted by atheists and other minerals-to-Megalosaurus evolutionists. The so-called Age of Reptiles is a myth to help bolster the greater myth of evolution. Tyrannosaurus rex  toy figure, Pixabay /  Eric Labayle Biblical creationists reject the Age of Reptiles on theological grounds, but this is not just a simplistic reaction. It is based on the study of biblical texts and logic. Something else to consider was how Charles Lyell, a lawyer who was instrumental in establishing deep time, wanted to devalue the Bible. Not only was the myth of the Age entirely made up, ...

Proponents of evolution believe that they have evidence, yes? Many also claim that their evidence that destroys creation science, yes? There are many instances where evolutionists claim to prove or give evidence for their speculations but fail. The idea that flightless birds such as the chicken-sized kiwi, the huge ostrich, and several others devolved from a common flying ancestor was put forward. People read the ostentatious claims and believe them — but fail to use critical thinking, which shows how evidence works against the narrative. North Island Brown Kiwi, Wikimedia Commons / The.Rohit ( CC BY 2.0 ) The story is that these birds devolved from one flighted ancestor, but if the secular science industry was thinking matters through, they would see that they would have a better story if it was the opposite! At any rate, there is no fossil evidence to support their claims. The preposterous idea that a loss of traits is evidence for evolution was used, but that remains absurd to thin...

Darwin's Flying Monkeys™ swoop down on creationist sites, gleefully telling us how stupid we — they are the smart ones for believing "science." One example is something like, " Tiktaalik  is a transitional form that refutes creation. Haw, haw, haw!" Not hardly! It seems that atheists and other evolutionists do not keep current with their evolution stories; knowledgeable creationists have to correct them. In this case, tetrapods (vertebrates with four limbs, including humans) supposedly evolved from lobe-finned fish. Rikki-tikki-tiktaalik was one such fish. Tiktaalik roseae , WikiComm / Olmagon ( CC BY-SA 4.0 ), modified at PhotoFunia Darwin's disciples were all a-twitter when they found parts of Tiktaalik  because they presuppose their story of evolution and that it made tracks on land. This meant it wanted to be a tetrapod. A big problem for evolution believers is that they often don't get the memo: Tracks by a tetrapod were found that were dated using...

People expect scientists to evaluate data according to logic, but that seems to be happening less. Indeed, critical thinking is shunned by people and what can be called stupidification is taking its place . People "think" with their emotions and parrot what people they admire have said. In my workplace, I have seen certain workers playing videos of people pontificating that they are victims of Conservatives. (Interesting how these "oppressed" people ignore the fact that they have public platforms for their views.) Lucy's evolutionary transitional form status is an example of poor critical thinking. Modified from a public domain image at  Wikimedia Commons Let's first consider medical science. In 2001, I was having chest pains. A doctor said that if he were a betting man, he's bet that my problem was anxiety. Although educated, it was his opinion  based on incomplete evidence; there was  a problem that was resolved with an angioplasty and stent. In 2023,...

Because of evolutionary presuppositions, the discovery of the first Archaeopteryx lithographica  fossil shortly after Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species , it caused quite a stir. The scientific community was beginning to take Darwin seriously, and here was alleged evidence for the first bird. Over the years, other  Archaeopteryx  fossils were discovered. Darwin's disciples were pushing the idea that dinosaurs evolved into birds, so Archie was claimed to be a transitional form. This has been debunked, but the transitional form concept is zombified and keeps coming back. Archaeopteryx lithographica, WikiComm, National Geographic Society / James L. Amos (PD) There are no half measures involved. The feathers were determined to be the kind used in flight, it had a wishbone (muscles attach there) so that involved flight as well, and other features of critters that exist today. In fact, it could be likened to the way a modern pheasant flies. No transitional form ...

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...

Crappie Crankbait from the Darwin Ranch specializes in ancient aquatic reptiles, and he was giving a lecture in town. It was a follow up to  his ichthyosaur talk , this time about mosasaurs. Dr. Crankbait gave old talking points about the critters. Yes, these reptiles were big, about 50 feet or 15 meters long. Their order is Squamata because they are supposedly related to lizards that left land and returned to the sea. It has been assumed that mosasaurs were poor swimmers. When I publicly asked how anyone knows these things, Dr. Crankbait ignored me. Mosasaurus hoffmannii skeleton (cropped and adjusted), Wikimedia Commons / Ghedoghedo ( CC BY-SA 3.0 ) Down Mississippi way in the spring of 2025, researchers found a sizeable sea dragon. Some of Darwin's acolytes get on the prod when I point out that evolutionists have presuppositions. Then some insist that creationists are the ones who do that, not "scientists." (That is, no true scientist questions evolution.) But the r...

When dealing with supporters of universal common descent, it is often frustrating and slightly amusing at the lack of evolutionary knowledge many show. Worse, they accuse creationists of not knowing "science," even when we demonstrate more knowledge about certain subjects than they do. Evolutionary scientists are portrayed as unified with only slight disagreements about details. Supporters seem oblivious to statements against interest where experts admit they have problems. The situation of a shrew-like tree dweller that is held up as our evolutionary ancestor helps illustrate these truths. "Docodonta Order" mostly made at DeepAI , then modified for texts The usual story is that humans and apes diverged from an unknown common ancestor millions of years ago, but this is not LUCA (the Last Universal Common Ancestor). Nor is it fish we all supposedly evolved from, either. The  hominine (the word itself question-begs evolution) are humans, apes, and lots of other crit...

It was a nice evening, so I saddled up and took a ride into town so as to get some oil for my lamp and watch the show. The townsfolk like entertainment of some sort or another, and Crappie Crankbait from the Darwin Ranch was giving a talk about his specialty, ancient marine reptiles. The topic was ichthyosaurs, which brings a struggle to Crankbait because there is no record of their evolution; they appeared suddenly in the fossil record. Dinosaurs are found in the same rock strata as these fish lizards. Ichthyosaurs, Heinrich Harder, 1916 Interesting that a fossil or remains can be found but not excavated for several years. This happened with an interesting ichthyosaur fossil was named Fiona. This critter met her demise while pregnant or even giving birth, and her last meal was identified. Almost ninety other ichthyosaur fossils were also discovered. Secularists invoked a form of catastrophism, saying that numerous underwater rockslides buried them. That many? On the continent?  No...

For many years, evolutionary scientists wanted to know the cranial capacity of humans and apes they discovered. This came from the idea that a bigger brain meant greater intelligence. Some folks seem to believe this today, an indication of how bad science gains a foothold with the public. Some animals have bigger brains than humans but are not as smart. It could be related to body size. The brain-to-body-size ratio shows that humans have larger brains in comparison to body size than some animals. Where does intelligence come from, anyway? It seems that intelligence is a product of consciousness, but secularists tend to reject its existence . But they also wonder how it evolved . Attempting to explain intelligence appears to be an acceptance of its existence. Another question is, "How is intelligence measured?" Dunno. Part of our brain is gray matter (you may have been told to use your gray matter as a way of urging you to think), Those brain cells called neurons  reside there...

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...

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...

It has been rightly said that trust takes a great deal of time and effort to earn, but can be ruined in an instant. Darwin's disciples have been caught doing shoddy research, ignoring pertinent evidence (the fallacy of exclusion ), seeing only one possible explanation of evidence, lying, and doing outright fraud. Then they wonder why the public is increasingly reluctant to trust their morality. These are the same sneaky sidewinders who redefine words making them appear to support the Bearded Buddha's concepts. People are thinking dinosaurs had feathers, but evidence does not support their claims. Assembled with components from  Clker  clipart Darwin's Flying Monkeys™ online will swoop down on creationists, jabbering, "We got a study!" (Many people are prone to believe practically anything if it seems to support their preconceptions, especially studies.) "A scientist said it's a simple matter for a scale to become a feather." Not hardly! On at least ...
