Similarities within embryos of different creatures are evidence of evolution – or are they? Embryos don’t always look similar or follow paths of prior evolution, in fact: “The embryonic development of so-called homologous structures is often different—and not just with respect to limbs. As far back as 1894, the American embryologist Edmund Wilson wrote, “It is a familiar fact that parts which … are undoubtedly homologous, often differ widely … in [their] mode of...

This is what we are dealing with – very simple articles that dismiss the evidence from science without even digging into the arguments. Notice how they say right off the bat: “In fact, dinosaurs died out 66 million years ago,” – this is a statement about the past, which is based on assumptions. It is an assumption not a fact....

How do we handle this age of information overload and misinformation?? We need to be discerning!! We need to make sure to keep the gospel and its transformative power as the main thing – above and beyond any other ideologies! And “we can’t promote an ‘us vs. them’ attitude when talking to believers who are not creationists—we should be working to persuade them.” “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that by testing you...

“Camels have red blood cells that are shaped flat, oval, and much smaller than human red blood cells. Human red blood cells are round. When humans become dehydrated, our blood becomes “sluggish” as the blood cells get stuck; a 5% water loss can result in serious medical problems. For humans, a 12 % water loss can result in death by dehydration; but not so for a camel, with its smaller, flatter, oval-shaped red blood cells. Even as the camel’s water level drops,...

Can you imagine stumbling across 4 billion skeletons? – “Where are all the bodies???” “Evolutionists also claim there was a ‘Stone Age’ of about 100,000 years11 when between one million and 10 million people lived on Earth. Fossil evidence shows that people buried their dead, often with artefacts—cremation was not practised until relatively recent times (in evolutionary thinking). If there were just one million people alive during that time, with an average...

Did you hear about the scientific paper (explained here: https://phys.org/news/2018-05-gene-survey-reveals-facets-evolution.html) that showed “that 90 percent of animal life, genetically speaking, is roughly the same age”? How do we correctly interpret that scientific evidence? Notice that that is continually the question that we have to ask – and that shows that everyone is forced to say that their assumptions affect how the data is interpreted. Note the following...

Does a belief in the ancient Earth lead to Atheism? Charles Templeton “was more famous than his team-mate at the time, Billy Graham.” “Then things changed. Templeton had long had doubts about the history in Genesis, which is foundational to the entire structure of the Gospel, and how it seemed to contradict the ‘scientific facts’. Logically, ‘millions of years’ meant that the fossils were laid down long before man, hence before sin. But the fossils showed death,...

Some have claimed that “for the last 2000 years most Christians have not believed in a young earth and it is only in the last half century that it has become a big issue for some Christians.” Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Wesley and many of the great Christian commentary authors have considered the age of the Earth to be young. See this resource: https://creation.com/british-scriptural-geologists-in-the-first-half-of-the-nineteenth-century-part-1#interpretation The...

“This question implies the Earth’s age, like its shape, can be directly measured—well it can’t, it’s a category-mistake.3 Earth’s age can only be inferred and depends upon the worldview of the investigator. The philosophical assumptions behind these dating techniques invalidate any supposed claim for rocks being reliable clocks, so are not “proven results of science”” See more about this question and 9 other questions here:...

“There is much powerful and positive evidence for a young earth, including dinosaur soft tissue discovered in dinosaur bones supposedly hundreds of millions of years in age; or the presence of carbon 14 in diamonds, coal, oil and other fossils; or global geological formations that can only be explained by invoking continental scale catastrophic flooding, such as planation surfaces, and water gaps; or the amount of salt in the world’s oceans, etc. For an extensive...
