These unique beetles mate, and then the female lays her eggs in the bark of the still smoldering wood. The eggs hatch and burrow into the tree, free to munch away on trees without interference from the tree’s protective defenses. On the underside of these beetles are tiny pits equipped with infrared radiation detection sensors. This infrared radiation detection system can detect the invisible heat rays given off by a forest fire up to 50 miles away! Do infrared...
Read More45 minutes without a heartbeat?
Marine iguanas are excellent swimmers and search for their food underwater. Sharks, however, love to eat marine iguanas and have sensitive hearing. They can hear the heartbeat of an iguana 12 feet away. So what’s an iguana to do? Stop its heart from beating? Incredibly, an iguana can stop its heart for up to 45 minutes! How do evolutionists explain this ability? A creature’s ability to stop its heart requires some major internal modifications. For an iguana...
Read MoreWhales from Bears??
Darwin was advised to not suggest that whales evolved from bears as that would seem ridiculous. The predominant view is that whales have evolved from Hyenas based on the shape of their jaw and teeth. Watch this for more on the Problems of Whale Evolution: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgEjY4QTU8Y
Read MoreWalking to Whale in ONLY 4 Million Years!
“The fossil record permits dramatically insufficient time to convert a land-mammal into a whale.” Consider here a small and simplified view of the “necessary modifications: Counter-current heat exchanger for intra-abdominal testes Ball vertebra Tail flukes and musculature Blubber for temperature insulation Ability to drink sea water (reorganization of kidney tissues) Fetus in breech position (for labor underwater) Nurse young underwater (modified mammae) Forelimbs...
Read MoreSTICKY FEET!
Tree frogs live in trees, sticking firmly to branches and leaves – even walking upside down on these surfaces. How do they keep from falling off? It’s all in the feet. Close inspection of a tree frog’s foot reveals pads with cracks and crevices from which mucus oozes. This mucus first cleans the dust and dirt off the surface to which the frog wants to cling. Then more mucus oozes out – creating a thin layer of “adhesive” to grip the surface. These...
Read MoreHow Did Feathers…Evolve??
Scales are one sheet and thus, for example, snakes shed the whole skin in often one piece. So changes in the genetic code have to happen to change this sheet of scales into individual highly complex feathers. Read more here: “A further difficulty pertains to explaining the origin of feathers. If, as is conventionally maintained, feathers evolved from scales, one has to posit some kind of Darwinian explanation for their evolution from perhaps frayed scales, which must...
Read MoreNo Free Rides!!
Ships traversing the ocean have to be regularly cleaned of barnacles, or they lose significant streamlining and efficiency. Even many whales can be seen with barnacles clinging to their skin for a free ride. As a matter of fact, the vast majority of whale species have barnacles clinging to their skin, and each of these whales are home to their own specific species of barnacle. Yet, the pilot whale is barnacle-free. Why don’t barnacles cling to pilot whales? It’s...
Read MoreWhy are there 2 Genders?!
“It is quietly accepted in the scientific community that the advent of sexual reproduction is likely the greatest unsolved mystery in biology. The fact that Darwinism has no credible answer for the origin of sex (typically asking only why sex would have been advantageous) presents an insurmountable challenge to the theory of evolution. I highly recommend this book by F. LaGard Smith, whose careful research demonstrates that he understands the crucial issues...
Read MoreHow Simple Can a Living Thing Be?
“More recently, Eugene Koonin and others tried to calculate the bare minimum required for a living cell, and came up with a result of 256 genes. But they were doubtful whether such a hypothetical bug could survive, because such an organism could barely repair DNA damage, could no longer fine-tune the ability of its remaining genes, would lack the ability to digest complex compounds, and would need a comprehensive supply of organic nutrients in its environment.4 Yet...
Read MoreA New Home!!
“A hermit crab cannot make its own shell to live in but has to find an empty shell to occupy. Once found, he backs into the shell; his twisted body is ideally designed to fit into a spiral shell. Often, a hermit crab carries a sea anemone on his shell. Sea anemones are covered with stinging cells, which release poison and kill the crab’s enemies when touched. When a hermit crab has to move to a new home, he will “plant” the anemone on his new shell. How did...
Read MoreDid Darwin’s Pigeons Support his Theory of Evolution?
“Darwin’s work actually demonstrates how the intense selection pressures after the Flood could have acted on gene pools rich in variety to allow rapid speciation/adaptive radiation from the restricted number of land-dwelling kinds represented on the Ark. The variability built into each created kind thus allowed post-Flood populations to respond to changing environmental pressures (adapt) and thus conserve the kinds.8 Ardent supporters of Darwinism might well fancy...
Read MoreAre Small Changes…Enough??
Every change in an animal feature has to be a genetic change. Every genetic change is caused by small accidental mutations. Most changes are very slight – if the environment dramatically changes to allow for a mechanism for genetic drift – did newly changed creatures have enough change to survive that much more? Are those small accidental changes in the genetic code enough for the evolution of such an information-rich, sophisticated genetic code? Professional...
