Isn’t it proven how horses have evolved?

Posted on Apr 26, 2018 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Eohippus, the smallest theorized horse ancestor is actually thought to be more like a rock badger (Hyracotherium) – it may be a stretch to claim it as a horse ancestor. In fact, there are other questionable assumptions about the timing of the evolving horses: “In north-eastern Oregon, the three-toed Neohipparion and one-toed Pliohippuswere found in the same layer. This indicates that they were living at the same time, and thus provides no evidence that one evolved from...

Was Antarctica really much warmer in the past?

Posted on Feb 6, 2018 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Rather than climate being drastically warmer millions of years ago (think about the dramatic climate change!) – likely things were very different before a recent flood and there was likely vegetation floating or transported to the area only thousands of years ago. “The second explanation is supported by the thick growth rings in many fossil trees found in high latitudes; had the trees grown where found, the axial tilt of the planet would have prevented sufficient sunlight...

“To the surprise of many, ducks,3 squirrels,4 platypus,5 beaver-like6 and badger-like7creatures have all been found in ‘dinosaur-era’ rock layers along with bees, cockroaches, frogs and pine trees. Most people don’t picture a T. rex walking along with a duck flying overhead, but that’s what the so-called ‘dino-era’ fossils would prove!” To Read More, Continue Here:...

Are Fossils in Order??

Posted on Nov 7, 2017 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Are Fossils in order according to the Evolutionary Theory??? “Perhaps most astonishingly, pollen fossils—evidence of flowering plants—were found in the Precambrian strata. According to evolutionists, flowering plants first evolved 160 mya, but the Precambrian strata is older than 550 mya. Dinosaurs are supposed to have evolved into birds. But Confuciusornis was a true beaked bird that pre-dates the ‘feathered’ dinosaurs that it allegedly came from. It also has been found...

Again, Fossils Are Evidence of Flood Geology!

In connection with Tuesday’s post, we also see a mass burial of Dinosaur bones jumbled up at Dinosaur National Monument. Here are six facts regarding the rich fossil deposit that all match very well with a flood situation causing this formation – and continue reading this article to see the full significance: Fact #1: The most common fossil in the Quarry sandstone is not the dinosaur, but a group of clams, of the genus Unio. Fact #2: The original Brushy Basin deposit was...

Huge Fossil Beds formed by a…Huge Flood?

This article (http://www.foxnews.com/science/2016/07/24/148-million-years-later-dinosaur-quarry-remains-cold-case.html) shows how around 50 specimens of Allosaurus have been discovered in the Cleveland-Lloyd Quarry among other types of Dinosaur. They mystery to them is how they are all concentrated in that area. One secular researcher suggests that they were all washed into the area. So this seems like a logical conclusion – based on the evidence: “A single catastrophe is...

The Coconino Sandstone has been assumed to be formed from ancient desert sand dunes. Within this rock layer, we find 4-footed animal tracks. Scientists did experimentation on how the tracks may have been formed and notice what has been discovered about the trackways: “A detailed statistical analysis of these data led to the conclusion, with a high degree of probability that the fossil tracks must have been made underwater… [Regarding the fossils] Toe imprints were...

I wanted to share with you an encouraging email we received from an attendee of one of our church seminars. At this particular event, I was teaching my Genesis Series starting with Genesis chapter one. Below is the email (the name and location were withheld by request). Hi Rich, Thank you so much for teaching during the Sunday school hour at our church this past month. I hope you can come back again if you have the time. There are so many more things I want to learn! So...

“A True Mystery of Science”

Posted on Nov 2, 2015 in Creation Nuggets | 0 comments

Regarding new fossil teeth much older than previously thought (2.8 million years old – 400,000 years earlier than before): “Arizona State’s William Kimbel, an author of the paper, said it’s not clear whether the fossil came from a known early species of Homo or whether it reveals a new one.” Such phrases seem to come up frequently: ‘older than previously thought’, ‘younger than previously thought’, ‘surprising results’, ‘unexpected data’, etc. This...

Best Evidence for Evolution: Examining Common “Best Proofs” Of Evolution

Posted on Apr 17, 2014 in Think & Believe Newsletter | 0 comments

(From the larger article “What’s the Evidence?“) Typically, textbooks, museums, zoos, and the popular media present a very one-sided, evolutionary approach to the question of origins, with no consideration of the possibility of creation by an intelligent designer. This section will show how data, which is usually interpreted as “proof” of evolution, can be interpreted through a different set of glasses. For study purposes, this evidence is grouped under 4...

The Question of Time

Posted on Dec 20, 2013 in Think & Believe Newsletter | 0 comments

In geology, the evolution/creation debate has centered largely around the rates of geologic processes and the accuracy of “dating” methods in determining the age of the earth. In reality, the “age” issue matters more to evolutionists than to creationists. If evolution really took place as usually taught, it must have required multiple billions of years. Though some evolutionists have postulated a form of evolution called “punctuated equilibrium” which speculates that...

Fossils Are Fun – Once You Blow the Smoke Away

Posted on Dec 20, 2013 in Think & Believe Newsletter | 0 comments

Whether it’s “Walking with Prehistoric Beasts” on the Discovery Channel or looking at National Geographic in the dentist’s office, it seems every time I turn around, I’m faced with some new fossil that “proves” evolution. Normally, my reaction is to pass it off as evolutionary dogma and change the channel or read about something else like fly fishing. However, I’m finding that by doing that, we, as Christians, can miss out on opportunities to discover more about God...
