Introduction: Everyone today has heard that at one time, long ago, dinosaurs roamed our world. Dinosaurs were some of the largest land animals ever to live. Thousands of dinosaur fossils can be found throughout the fossil record. Soft Tissue has also been discovered in numerous examples now. Did dinosaurs have feathers? What is the Truth about dinosaurs? What were they like? When did they live? Naturalistic/Evolutionary Answer: Dinosaurs lived between 230 – 65...

A frequently asked question at our seminars is, “Do you believe in continental drift?” This is the idea that all the land masses on our planet were originally one large continent which is referred to as Pangaea. Pangaea then supposedly broke up over millions of years to give the present distribution of our continents. What about this and what about the time frame? In 1859, creationist Antonio Snider suggested the idea of a super continent based on a biblical passage. Gen 1:...

Deserts! Lizards, rattlesnakes, and cacti come to mind. Can anything else survive? Yes! Many animals have either learned how to cope or come equipped with ingeniously designed systems to “beat the heart.” Many animals cope by avoiding the heat as much as possible. They limit activity to the cooler morning or evening hours, and spend much of the day in a cool, moist burrow or in the shade of rocks or vegetation. Others minimize heat absorption by aligning themselves...

From the waters of Southeast Asia comes a strong testimony of the Creator’s ability to provide His creatures with all the necessary tools for survival. The intriguing archerfish has a unique method of catching its food. With amazing accuracy, it aims and fires its sniper weapon at an unsuspecting bug crawling on a leaf of a bush high above a pool of water. When the pulsating beads of water hit the mark (and the fish rarely misses up to 4 feet away), the bug falls off the...

From the pages of the encyclopedias we are apt to read that mastodons and mammoths were ancient relatives of today’s elephants which have been extinct for about 10,000 years. This has been accepted by virtually all the “experts” today and consequently is taught at all levels of education. There are other experts, however, who suggest that these great creatures have been extinct for not more than a few hundred years. Many of these experts are historians who have read...

I was just given a link to information on amazing research that has been going on for quite a while. I had heard about portions of the research, but huge advancements have been made recently. The research involves making replacement body parts such as lungs, hearts, livers, kidneys, etc. The video shows the results of a successful replacement transplant of a woman’s damaged windpipe using the patient’s own cells that were grown over a precise scaffold of protein. At this...

Living on this earth are some interesting creatures which, according to evolutionary theory, “should have” been extinct millions of years ago, yet they live on, virtually unchanged. Some of these include the opossum, the horseshoe crab, the snapping turtle, the cockroach, the platypus, and the famous coelacanth. The coelacanth is a strange fish that was thought to have become extinct along with the dinosaurs over 70 million years ago. It was known only from fossils until...

The Big Bang Theory is the most-widely accepted theory of the origin of the universe among evolutionary scientists. Many Christians (evolutionist and otherwise) also endorse the idea, concluding that if God did create the universe all at once, there most certainly would have been a loud noise. The Big Bang Theory says that all the “stuff” in the universe was at one time jammed into a ball less than the size of the head of a pin, including everything we know of: the...

A Gary Larson cartoon depicts a meeting of several dinosaurs discussing their ultimate fate – extinction. The caption say; “Wings, feathers, nests? A crazy idea, but it just might work!” It certainly does sound like a crazy idea, but several science centers we visited lately have actually made the statement that dinosaurs are still with us – they “merely” evolved into birds. So, somehow, legs must have developed into wings and scales into feathers. Let’s take a close...

Flying birds are compact, well-integrated flying machines capable of producing the large amounts of energy necessary for flight. Their powerful wings are properly shaped to utilize the physical principles of moving air. In addition, the wing size and shape varies with species, according to the size of the bird and its speed and type of flight. In fact, birds can often be identified by their characteristic flight pattern. The feathers of a bird serve to streamline the...
