morgueFile/pschubert What do you get when you have evolutionary scientists using intricate equipment, controlled conditions, bacteria DNA, induced mutations and getting lackluster results? Why, proof of evolution, of course! The rest of us would say that their results show that evolution is not a logical conclusion. Instead, the logical conclusion is that there is a Creator who makes things that are resistant to mutation, and evolution is a fundamentally flawed explanation. Researchers recently announced the first systematic laboratory-induced mutation of successive amino acids in a nearly complete simple bacterial protein. The results demonstrated how protein chemistry and structure, in even the most simple of life’s proteins, are irreducibly complex. The research also showed how the random processes ascribed to genetic mutations are unable to propel favorable evolutionary progress that could lead to new selectable traits. Proteins are chains of amino acids that are cod

stock.xchng/ark3pix Back with my unregistered assault keyboard, bringing you news that refutes evolutionism and affirms that the evidence supports creation science. As we keep seeing, evolutionists seem to take whatever is found and "spin" it to mean that evolution is true. Although it is natural to see evidence through one's worldview spectacles, it seems that people would grow weary of constant fabrications and the defying of logic. In this case, camels have been found in the arctic. The speculation is that they are 3-1/2 millions years old, but yet again, those deep-time-refuting soft tissues interfere with a good story. And yet again, creationists do not have these problems in dealing with facts. Fossils from a large species of camel living in Canada’s high arctic contain soft tissue. What’s an iconic desert creature doing in the freezing wastes of the north?  The BBC News reported the discovery of 30 fragments of camel leg bones found on Ellesmere Island.

Image credit: morgueFile / SQUAIO (modified) Madagascar is both fascinating and puzzling. Creatures live (and had lived) there that are unique on Earth. The article linked below p resents some ideas on how animal life came to Madagascar after the Noachian Flood, using a creationist model. The English sailor Robert Drury is famous for his shipwreck on the island of Madagascar in the 1700s. We know nothing about him except the scant words in his journal. His mysterious tale perfectly fits the mysterious land he crashed into. Sometimes called “the eighth continent,” this island—about the size of France—enthralls us with its unique wildlife, its vivid colors and diverse landscapes, and its hints of past geologic upheaval and radical species diversification. As tantalizing as these marvels are, however, much about Madagascar’s history eludes us, as if the details melt away when we look closely. The amazing animals that live there—or once did—hold secrets that may he

My wife came into the room and noticed my moist eyes. Someone I had respected had moved on to his permanent home with Jesus. I'm not ashamed to admit that I had an emotional moment. Although I was not a personal friend of Dr. Duane Gish, he had made an impact on me. I met Dr. Gish, Dr. Henry Morris, Dr. John Morris and Ken Ham at a creation science conference in Schaumburg, Illinois in 1991. Heh, I just remembered that the conference people needed some help with the projectors for films between presentations, so I jumped at the chance to do that. Interesting...Dr. Gish was one of the "fathers" of the modern creation science movement. His handwriting was rather like my own father's. Although they remained faithful to their calling, I did not. I fell away from the faith for about fifteen years. After I renewed my commitment to Christ, my creationist calling came back, stronger than ever. Duane Gish was loved and respected by many. He was also hated by so

In our last exciting episode , we explored how evolutionists speak with forked tongues. First, they say that abiogenesis has nothing to do with evolution. Then, they spend time explaining and attempting to defend it. Although they try to distance themselves from the insurmountable problem of giving a rational explanation for abiogenesis, the problem remains. Secularists do not want to admit that the evidence points to the Creator (it would mean that we had better find out what he has to say!), and they postulate some pretty outrageous things. The amazing design and complexity of the universe is written off to mere chance, we're the lucky ones in the multiverse. Add to that the idea that since life could not have arisen here, it must have arisen out there. Life came from space. Just ask the aliens who planted it here. Yes, this fundamentally flawed tale is considered by some to be a serious scientific hypothesis, even though there is not a shred of evidence to support it.

The evidence is against abiogenesis, and many evolutionists are no longer attempting to defend it. They will make inane remarks like, "Evolution is not about the origin of life, but rather, the origin of species". Then they proceed to fail in their attempts to explain the origin of life and the origin of species through their "just so" stories, and the discredited Miller-Urey experiment . I have encountered Darwin's Cheerleaders who insist that evolutionists do not discuss abiogenesis. That is simply untrue [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ] . David Attenborough had a television show with fanciful tales on the origin of life. Worse, his stories about its origin and development were misleading, as they went against real science. Creationists do not have these logic and science problems. In this BBC-Discovery TV program1 Sir David Attenborough tells us his purpose is to look at the origin of life and for the very first living creature that appeared on Earth. As he pres

Wikimedia Commons/Original work by Narayanese It seems that whenever there is a new discover in the cosmos or the life sciences, evolution somehow gets the credit. It's almost as if Evolution is an intelligent designing entity, innit? First, microRNA was dismissed until "EvolutionDidIt". Now, circular RNAs are adding to the mix, and guess what? EvolutionDidIt. This is too often what is considered proof for evolution: A simple declaration for those incapable of critical thinking to joyfully spread around. In rea lity, it is absurd to belie ve such things are the product of time, chance, mutations and other ra ndo m processes. Remember when microRNA burst onto the scene a few years back and revolutionized our knowledge of cellular regulatory processes? Evolutionists had to scramble because, after all, when you say your theory explains something and it turns out you don’t really understand that something, well it looks like you don’t know what you’re talking abou

Evolutionists are good at Making Things Up™ to try and bolster their evolutionary worldview. Vestigial organs, the idea that something is leftover from a creature's evolutionary past, have been largely abandoned by evolutionary scientists. But enthusiastic supporters still see what is not there: "Look! Whales have bumps. Must be leftover legs that are evolving away". No, not really. Besides, if something is being lost, that's the opposite of evolution. Dr. Jerry Bergman is interviewed on Bob Enyart's "Real Science Radio" show and discusses the failings of whale evolution and their alleged vestigial organs.

stock.xchng/jonathan_n Yes, we did discuss ants before . This is additional information, not duplicate. Not only are ants industrious and organized (yet without an overseer or paying union dues), but more is being discovered about they way they can communicate. Some can even use sound. For such a thing to happen, several complex features must be in place at the same time — time, chance, random processes, mutations and the like become more and more unbelievable as our knowledge about how they were created increases. New surprises revealing complex bio-engineering keep emerging as evolutionary scientists continue to unwittingly obey the biblical command to "observe the ant"(Proverbs 6:6; 30:25). The latest bio-engineering discovery is that a key component of ant colony survival is based on sound (acoustic) communication systems. One of the long-standing paradigms of animal communication is the use of airborne chemical messages called pheromones. Ants use pher

morgueFile/cielo  Not too long ago, I was fond of the "reality shows" that dealt with the paranormal. The investigators would look for natural explanations of phenomena before they would entertain a paranormal explanation. The door opens by itself? Yes, and opening a door down the hall would create a kind of wind effect, plus the weak latch — no spirits here, Bruce.  Similarly, critics of creation science create a straw man based on prejudicial conjecture : that creationists simply write everything off as "GodDidIt", and that do not want to know anything that is actually scientific. Yet, evolutionists will look for "EvolutionDidIt" as the first  explanation. Sometimes they do this despite evolutionary mechanisms that are postulated, and despite empirical evidence! In fact, they are guilty of circular reasoning, because they all ege that many things, despite alternative explanations, are considered to be evidence of evolution. People believe t
