God’s Handiwork in Space!
“The whirlpool galaxy lies some 30 million light years away, and tucked inside it is something called the X-Structure. Scientists tell us the dark X marks the exact spot of a black hole so big that its size is equal to 1 million of our suns. It’s so astronomically big that it’s 1’100 light-years across. That is amazing, but I believe the X marks the spot of something more than just a black hole. because if you tilt your head just a bit, that X...
Read MoreStars – Evolved or Created??
“The scary part is that if none of us knew in advance that stars exist, frontline research would offer plenty of convincing reasons for why stars could never form.” -Neil deGrasse Tyson (Death by Blackhole, p. 187.) So Maybe that is positive evidence that they were created!! Picture from: https://pixabay.com/photos/space-universe-night-sky-sky-fog-11099/ accessed 1/6/23.
Read MoreWhat makes life worth living?
“So what makes life worth living, even in the darkest of times? For holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl, it was a sense of meaning. In his book Man’s Search for Meaning, he wrote, “In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.” An understanding that our suffering is not for no reason—but is rather part of constructing something positive and significant—was essential for giving Frankl strength to...
Read MoreIf there is true justice, there must be an afterlife!
An argument for the afterlife: If there is true justice, there must be an afterlife! Rabbi Joseph Telushkin says: “It seems unlikely and inconceivable to me to believe that there’s a God and there’s not an afterlife, for the simple reason that in the absence of an afterlife, it would mean that Adolf Hitler and Anne Frank had the same fate, of dying and actually having nothing. And it would be impossible for me to imagine that that could coexist with a God...
Read MoreWhere are all the human fossils??
If there was a worldwide flood, where are all the human fossils?? A More Challenging Question: If humanoids have evolved from ape-like ancestors over the last 6-12 million years, where are all the human fossils and graves?? See answers to these questions here: https://creationsuperstore.com/i-believe-in-the-flood-but-why-no-human-fossils-by-david-rives/ Picture from: https://pixabay.com/photos/arlington-national-cemetery-2225762/ accessed...
Read MoreDesign in Copperhead Snakes?
How could these amazing (seemingly designed) features have evolved? Plus fun facts – see below! Challenge: What sort of sophisticated equipment and technology would you need to create a sensitive thermal imaging system? Now think about this: Copperheads are pit vipers, like rattlesnakes and water moccasins. Pit vipers have “heat-sensory pits between eye and nostril on each side of head,” which are able to detect minute differences in temperatures so...
Read MoreCircadian Rhythm – any evolutionary steps??…No.
“No transitional schemes can be constructed to explain the emergence of the more complex systems from the simpler ones found in bacteria on account of lack of homologous features conserved across the kingdoms. In laboratory experiments, considerable design input is needed to construct the simplest artificial biological clock; these do not run on a 24-hour cycle. The existence of circadian clocks, with fundamental common design elements, specified complexity,...
Read MorePlanets formed…really quickly!
Planets formed really quickly – within about 5 million years! Is that really true?? This new research talks about how the Earth would have had to form much more quickly than they have previously thought – due to the study of iron compositions of the Earth and meteorites. These scientists make new estimations for how the Earth formed, but it appears that a lot of detail is still missing. So often this is the case: a scientist says that they have figured out how...
Read MoreAtheists Lack Beliefs…or Do They Believe?…
The American Atheists say that “Atheism is one thing: A lack of belief in gods…Atheism is not an affirmative belief that there is no god nor does it answer any other question about what a person believes. It is simply a rejection of the assertion that there are gods. Atheism is too often defined incorrectly as a belief system. To be clear: Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of belief in gods…” “…Atheism is not a belief system nor is...
Read MoreA swimming school of fish frozen in sand!
It must have been a really rapid burial event!! “The scientific team also highlighted a number of other fascinating examples of what they called “frozen behaviours” in fossils: “examples include fighting dinosaurs, queueing trilobites and insects in copulation. These fossils are assumed to result from rapid burial, which preserves individual positions during interactions”. Yes indeed, but this is completely contrary to the uniformitarian ‘slow-n-gradual’...
