Was Antarctica really much warmer in the past?
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...
Read MoreBlinded!
“Darwinian evolutionists believe RNA, a nucleic acid present in all living cells, were some of the first molecules to form on the Earth and give rise to living things. But for that to happen, the RNA would have had to somehow reproduce on its own without requisite enzymes that would not have evolved yet. Szostak claimed to have facilitated RNA self-replication in his lab, but earlier this month, he said one of his colleagues, Tivoli Olsen, realized they had...
Read MoreAssumed, Not Supported
Evolution is often simply assumed rather than supported by evidence! I think this is so often the case. In reviewing an evolutionary book, one research notes that the book “is not about how eyes evolved, but rather how the author imagines that eyes had evolved. In fact, throughout this work, the author takes evolution as a given (i.e. eyes exist, therefore they evolved) and does not attempt to test it in any way. Schwab freely interprets anatomical features, often in...
Read MoreWhere Do Dirty Snowballs Come From?
Comets are dirty snowballs that…as we would expect…burn up as they go around the sun! So if billions of years are true as many suggest, then why do we still have comets? When I (Brian) was in a college Astronomy 101 course at a large secular University, my teacher did answer that. She said that there is a Kuiper Belt or an Oort Cloud around the solar system that occasionally throws in a new comet. I thought to myself “Oh, okay. That makes sense.” But a few years...
Read MoreYou Are How Old…?
Imagine if I tested one of your skin cells and declared that you tested as 20 years older than you are! Would you be insulted if I thought you were that old? It’s the same thing with this topic: http://www.icr.org/article/excess-argon-archilles-heel-potassium-argon-dating/
Read MoreAn Animal that Sweats Blood?!
What animal looks like it sweats blood? The 7,000-pound hippopotamus. The five-inch-thick hippo skin has sweat glands that ooze a red slime, which later turns brown. This oozing slime protects the hippo from sun (as a sun block), from insects (as a natural repellent) and produces antibiotics to stop deadly bacteria. How many millions of years did it take to get the glands just right? God knew what the hippo would need and provided for his protection. Read more...
Read MoreInformation – Evidence of Random Evolution or Created Design?
“According to Carl Sagan, one of our best-known scientists, ‘The information content of a simple cell has been established as around one trillion bits, comparable to about 100 million pages of the Encyclopaedia Britannica’ [emphasis mine].1 What Sagan is talking about here is the information contained within the genetic code (DNA) of a microscopic Escherichia coli bacterium that lives in our intestines.” Read more here:...

What is the Biblical perspective of Aliens? Are Aliens real? How can we know whether or not they are real? How do we explain them? Why does it matter whether Aliens exist or not? How can this topic be used to share the gospel with people?

Read MoreFeeling Lazy??
If you have experienced any lazy time during the holidays, don’t worry! Check out these amazing machines that are always working in your body. As one biological animator/researcher says “So no matter how lazy you feel, you’re not really intrinsically doing nothing.” (See video 2 below) Darwin thought cells were simply small blobs that were like the smallest building blocks (bricks) for the construction of the body. Scientists in his day had no idea about the...
