Further Dispute About "Proof" of the Big Bang

Image
In their desperate attempts to explain the origins of the universe, living things, life itself and so on without God, secularists get hasty in their pronouncements. Once the latest great thing is proclaimed, the Evo Sith ridicule creationists by posting links — and embarrass themselves because they were arrogant too soon. In this case, the "smoking gun" proof of the Big Bang (a series of conjectures without substance ) and "inflation" was in dispute a short time after it was announced is receiving further criticism. Now scientists are saying that this "proof" is possibly nothing but dust . The scientists who thought they had proof of the Big Bang inflation disregarded this consideration, and may be regretting it. A word of caution to creationists who are alarmed at scientific findings: don't be. Just wait a while. Besides, our faith is not based on the latest whims of science, but on the unchanging Word of God. In March 2014, a team of radio

Are Butterflies Just Good Enough to Get By?

Butterfly flight is an intricate process. It entails very quick, precise motion with minute muscular control. Everything for the complex and precise process of flight must be in place at the same time, or else nothing works, nothing makes sense. Yet, Darwin's Cheerleaders want us to believe that it was through time, chance, natural selection and so forth. "Butterflies", Odilon Redon, 1910 It looks like they simply flap their wings. In fact, the rapid process is simply too fast for us to see; there is really quite a bit going on. Butterflies have never ceased to dazzle and amaze mankind with their colours,1 patterns, and just as importantly, their incredible flying abilities.2 The earliest recorded paintings of these beautiful creatures were found on the 3000-year-old3 tomb walls of an Egyptian named Nebamun, an “accountant of grain” ... during the reigns of Thutmose IV and Amenhotep III. The surviving fresco containing the butterflies can be seen at the British M

Extraterrestrial Life Less Likely

Once again, the more we learn, the more we realize that we do not know so much after all, and there is much more to learn. In this case, life "out there" in space. Evolutionary cosmogonists, cosmologists and astronomers have been playing the odds, assuming that of all the stars in the universe, many must have habitable words — we got one, didn't we? Plugging into the presuppositions that life evolved here, and it must have evolved on those other words, and there are exoplanets out there, that settles it. No, it doesn't. Artist's conception of Kepler-10 and planets — Image credit: NASA / Ames / JPL-Caltech (Usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) Although planets may exist in the habitable zone, there are other problems to overcome for them to be able to support life. There are new problems being ascertained as well, including planets that should not even exist according to evolutionary schemes (but are not a problem for biblical creationists)

DNA and Misunderstood Communication

Image
Do you realize that no matter how much you know, there’s an infinite amount more to know? Which means, no matter how much you know, you don’t know how much more there is to know anyway, which means no matter how much you know, you don’t know how much you do know or don’t know in relation to whatever there is to know (which you don’t know what it is anyway) which means you just don’t know much at all. — Ken Ham The more scientists study DNA, the more discoveries there are to make, the more they find out that there is a great deal yet to learn . The assumption that every living thing speaks the same language turns out to be in error, and certain "stop" and "go" instructions in some organisms can mean something completely different in other organisms. Image * After Some of the Evo Sith claim that DNA is proof of evolution. The intricacies of the DNA language are definitely not that! Rather, DNA is further evidence that life was designed by an infinite

Should Christians Teach Children About Evolution?

Image
Occasionally, some creationists will post comments along the lines of, "I'll only teach the truth of creation to my kids, none of that evil-ution stuff in my house!" Unfortunately, this well-intentioned mindset does a disservice to young people because they cannot be insulated from evolution because it is pervasive and foundational to all sorts of evil. freeimages.com / "Studying Hard" / twinkledee Instead, we must present evolution — but within a biblical framework. We need to show not only the evidence that overwhelmingly supports creation and the Bible, but also the flaws of evolution that are seldom presented in a secular setting. Further, we need to teach them to think critically so they can see the flaws in the logic of evolution's proponents, and that evidence is interpreted through worldviews. Otherwise, when evolution is presented to them as fact (including "evidence" that is nothing more than speculations, hypotheses and even gu

How Many Grand Canyons Do You Want?

Uniformitarian geologists, using "the present is the key to the past" as their paradigm, tell us that aside from the occasional catastrophe, the slow and gradual processes that occur today are responsible for the features of the earth's surface that we observe. However, their explanations fall far short of giving adequate explanations (faith-based assertions need not apply). Visitors silhouetted on Grand Canyon overlook/Richard Frear/US National Park Service Biblical creation scientists have a far different explanation for observed data — and a far better one. The Grand Canyon is the most popular example of catastrophic Noachian Flood processes. However, this is not the only "grand canyon", nor is it the largest. On the seminar trail, I and other ICR speakers often use Grand Canyon as an example of Flood-caused geological features. We frequently run into opposition from people who’ve been taught that it took millions of years for the canyon to be carve

Conversation With Dr. Russell Humphreys on Magnetic Fields

Image
Here I am, back behind my unregistered assault keyboard, providing resources to creation-affirming science (plus some theological and philosophical) articles. On Real Science Radio, Bob Enyart interviewed Dr. D. Russell Humphreys about magnetic fields, emphasizing those of Earth and Mercury. Dr. Humphreys made predictions from a biblical creationist viewpoint which were confirmed — much to the dismay of evolutionary scientists. He has also studied the decay of Earth's magnetic field. Artist concept of the MESSENGER spacecraft in orbit around planet Mercury. Credit: NASA The confirmed predictions of Humphreys fit well with a biblical creation model, and defy proponents of an old universe. Decaying magnetic fields support a young universe, and unsupportable "theories" such as the "dynamo" are conjured up in order to cling to their belief in an old universe. Boy do the atheists have a problem: Real Science Radio co-host Bob Enyart interviews physicist
