Feral Fundamentalist Anti-Creationist Antics

Image
by Cowboy Bob Sorensen Many evolutionists insist on believing in goo-to-geneticist evolution despite abundant evidence to the contrary. Whenever flaws in their speculations are presented (and especially when information is given that supports special creation), they circle the wagons to fend of raiding bands of us evil creationists. There are Darwinists who want to go on about their evolution business, ignorant of what biblical creationists actually believe and teach; they do not go to the sources for their information. Instead, creationists are maligned with blatant misrepresentation, claims that we are "science deniers", calling us "liars" because they disagree with our interpretations of evidence, and other nonsense. Let's be blunt — they want us silenced. These people are intolerant in the real sense of the word. It's common to find someone with a new, fake Facebook profile. The paint's not even dry yet, but they annoy the pu

Fundamentally Flawed Evolution is a "God of the Gaps"

Image
Evidence and logic often indicate that the evidence shows the involvement of God. Atheists and other anti-creationists claim that creationists are invoking a "God of the gaps" excuse. However, when evolutionists get puzzled, they make evolution into their own magical god of the gaps. Basically, "There's missing information, but we know that EvolutionDidIt®, and we know that someday , we'll learn how it happened. This means we can believe in our evolutionary god of the gaps because that's 'science'." Meadow muffins! That's blind faith, Fergus. When a false god is called upon to solve gaps in knowledge, this is sometimes referred to as “god of the gaps.” For example, if someone did not know that ice is formed when water freezes and proposed that there was an “ice god” that occasionally causes ice to spontaneously appear, then they would be guilty of using a god-of-the-gaps explanation. Biblical Creation Is Not a God of the Gaps

DNA and Information Storage

Image
The DNA molecule is amazingly complex, and more of its functions and properties are constantly being discovered. Its mind-boggling capabilities give lie to the concept of goo-to-you evolution, and affirm the amazing design of our Creator. DNA's abilities and storage dwarf even the best computers. In addition, it is known that DNA is unstable and quickly deteriorates, but has been found in dinosaur bones , along with soft tissues — which puts a burr under the saddle of those who believe in an ancient earth. Modified US Army photo of ENIAC, ca. 1946 DNA stores a vast amount of information that is processed in living things, and even has its own repair systems. It's mighty ironic that people who believe that DNA, life, the universe, and everything are the products of chance and random processes want to intelligently design something based on God's handiwork ( biomimetics ). How about using DNA for data storage? Living creatures not only contain enormously complex mac

Dinosaur Egg Colors Defy Long-Age Beliefs

Image
Although most fossilized dinosaur eggs seem to resemble stones in concrete, sometimes they are found with colors. But how can colors stay intact for the millions of years that deep-time advocates insist upon? A recent discovery is perplexing to secular scientists. Dinosaur eggs photo from US National Park Service Finding dinosaur soft tissues and red blood cells indicate that dinosaurs are nowhere near as old as secular geologists and paleontologists maintain, since the tissues and blood cells would deteriorate completely over long periods of time. Molecules for pigmentation are rather complex as well, and would also break down. No, the accumulated evidence shows that that the unfortunate critters were rapidly buried as a result of the Genesis Flood, just a few thousand years ago. German scientists revealed that some Chinese dinosaur eggs probably looked similar to the dark blue-green hue of modern emu eggs. If the dinosaur’s original pigment molecules revealed the egg’s color

Giant Impact, Secular Miracles, and Bad Science

Image
There are several secular models for the formation of the moon. Co-accretion (condensation) concept is that Earth and the moon were formed at the same time from the same nebula that formed the rest of the solar system. Another is the fission (spin-off) idea, where a molten Earth threw out a chunk of matter before it had cooled, and that became the moon. Then there's the giant impact hypothesis, where some cosmic wanderer about the size of Mercury smacked into Earth and the debris formed the moon, which was lassoed by gravity and yee haw, we got us a moon! None of these fit the data . If the impact had happened, maybe it looked like this. Image Credit: NASA / JPL-Caltech Of the three main cosmic evolution failures, the least dismal failure is the impact hypothesis. Rather than give credit to the Creator, some owlhoots getting grant money spin yarns to keep that idea going. Problem is, they're being disingenuous. They invoke their version of miracles, and they tamper so muc

Dis-CERN-ment and the End of the World

Image
by Cowboy Bob Sorensen This article almost went to my " Biblical Creation and Evangelism " Weblog, but I reckoned that it was appropriate to put here. Tough call. Also, this was a painful article to write, and I aim to share it with all y'all. Honey the Jersey heifer is unwilling to be dragged into false teachings. People are spreading fear about CERN and the end of the world. So what is that CERN thing with 21 European member states, and what about that Large Hadron Collider, and all? From the CERN site: At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the f

Glow-in-the-Dark Diversity

Image
The expensive word for living things that glow in the dark, producing their own light, is bioluminescence. One creature that many people know is the "firefly" or "lightning bug", but both words are incorrect, they are bioluminescent beetles . But that term isn't as much fun, is it? Cowboys in Texas can see them, but riding north, they're harder to find west of Kansas. Sure is fun to see fields full of them. "Firefly" image by suphakit73 at FreeDigitalPhotos.net There are other things that give off their own light, and they're in a variety of shapes and places. Certain kinds of mushrooms, jellyfish, the glowworm, certain sharks, bobtail squid, dinoflagellates (plankton that light up the ocean), and a passel of other things. Some use their glow for mating, others for hunting, and some for defense. Then there are some things that glow and nobody can figure out why. Insects like green, by the way.  Bioluminescence is baffling to Darwinist

Dinosaur Fossils in Salt Water Sediments

Image
In some areas of the nothing-much of the American West, many dinosaur fossils have been found. Us regular folk can go on dinosaur digging expeditions, and there's an evolutionary propaganda event called " National Fossil Day ". A bit of science that is downplayed is that there are sediments containing marine fossils with the dinosaur bits. Skull of strange armored swimming reptile Vancleavea discovered at Ghost Ranch. Image credit: US National Park Service . These mixes of marine creatures and dinosaurs in sediments are not just an isolated phenomenon, and appear in other parts of the planet.   In fact, a  theropod thighbone was found in marine rock north of Seattle , Washington.  I suspicion that they're downplayed by secular paleontologists is that they tend to work against uniformitarianism and support biblical creation views of the global Genesis Flood. That would mean that the earth was created recently and is not billions of years old, which in turn th

Bacteria — Another Excuse for Soft-Tissue Fossil Remains

Image
Way back yonder, we were told in school that for a fossil to form, something had to die, then sink in the water to the bottom, get covered, and after millions of years, there's yer fossil, Festus! Does it happen that way? Not hardly! Scavengers eat things, bacteria gets to them, water turbulence breaks them up, and so on. Ever find a fish in your aquarium that's been dead for a while and was hidden in that goofy fake rock thing? Sometimes they look like they're growing a kind of fuzz, and barely resemble a fish anymore. No, critters have to be buried quickly to become fossils. Diplomystus dentatus with Knightia in its mouth. Image Credit: US National Park Service The best explanation for the millions of fossils that exist is the global catastrophe of the Genesis Flood. But that's bad medicine for uniformitarian geologists, because the biblical timeline is recent, and secularists want long ages for evolution to happen. It appears that the US National Park Service

Lucy's Status Sketchy at Best

Image
Australopithecus afarensis ("Lucy") as a transitional form between humans and apes has been dubious from the beginning. Evidence shows that Lucy was designed to walk on all fours, not upright like humans. In 1995, Häusler & Schmid proposed that Lucy was a male, and should be called "Lucifer". The skeleton was not all found in the same place, indicating that the bones are contestable, so we shouldn't be surprised that a baboon bone was found in the mix . There are other "relatives" of Lucy in all the confusion, and the press went wild over the announcement of a few more bone fragments that were named as a Lucy relative . Despite all the evidence, old and new, against A. afarensis being anything other than an extinct ape, evolutionary paleontologists want to slap leather with actual evidence and reason, saying, in essence, "You'll take my transitional form when you pry it from my cold, dead hands ". Why do they cling to a few dub
