“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:...
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...
Read MoreDon’t Humans Share DNA with Apes? Isn’t that Proof of Evolution?
“Claim: Humans share almost 99% of our DNA with Chimpanzees. Reality: This originally came from analyzing only the portion of the genome that is already similar. Looking at the broader genome including Indels, that percentage is closer to 86-89%. If “junk DNA” is considered (which is not junk!), the percentage is even much lower. Genetic researcher, Dr. Jeffrey Tomkins, shows the similarity may be between 71-86%. He states, “While it is true that there are sections...
Read MoreTwo Squirrels Separated by Time!!
Today, AOI Speaker Brian Mariani is at the Grand Canyon leading a Creation Tour for Jackson Hole Bible College! Be praying for students and staff for travel mercies and a blessed trip! Here is a Nugget – – The white-tailed Kaibab squirrel on the North Rim is a variation of the white-chested Abert Squirrel on the South Rim. “The Canyon acts as an effective barrier which separates the squirrel population of the north rim from that on the south and...
Read MoreJunk DNA… Functional, but still Junk?
This is intriguing. For years evolutionists have been predicting — then claiming without proof — that a high percentage of our DNA is “junk” – the leftovers from millions of years of evolution. Creationists predicted that since God doesn’t make junk, we will find important uses for so-called “junk DNA.” When we pointed out that virtually everything that was called “junk DNA” has now been shown to have important and sometimes vital functions,...
Read MoreEver Wonder Where Golf Ball Dimples Came From?
“Golf balls made during the 1800s were made with a smooth surface so it would fly farther. At some point, golfers noticed that older balls covered with nicks and grooves seemed to fly farther. By the 1930s, the standard golf ball was covered with dimples. Just as golf balls are designed with “dimples,” so is shark skin. To swim faster, a shark bristles with its denticles, causing tiny whirlpools to form within the cavities between the denticles. These tiny...
Read MoreCould Adam have really named all of the animals in one day?
“There are several factors, which may not be immediately obvious to the casual reader, that need to be considered. Firstly, Adam did not have to go out and round up or track any of these animals. Genesis 2:19 clearly states that God brought the animals to Adam. Secondly, although many objectors have claimed that the species Adam had to observe and name would have numbered in the millions, the actual number would almost certainly have been only a small fraction of this. Note...
Read MoreSloths are……s…l…o…w…
They are slow because that helps conserve energy. They spend around 18 hours a day sleeping upside down in trees. A question to evolutionists could be that in the supposed 60 million years since they have supposedly evolved, why hasn’t another predator “super”-evolved to wipe them out. They are camouflaged, but is that enough for surviving 60 million years while other things are supposedly evolving? See more here:...
Read MoreScary Times – Genetic Engineering and Bioethics!
We are in scary times when it comes to what we can do with technology. This article does even refer to bioethics, but I think the scary thing is…from an evolutionary worldview (i.e. Survival of the Fittest) – what is bioethically “right” or “wrong”? From a completely naturalistic/evolutionary worldview…is there any boundary or limit to how we can or cannot affect the genetics of another person! ...
Read MoreData in Your DNA!
Scientists can now build practically any DNA sequence that they want which is allowing us to use it as a storage device. One research team has engineered DNA strands to store the information for an operating system, text, images, and a movie and they were able to successfully retrieve it. This technology could make huge strides in progress – think about it as they put it – “all your data in a drop of DNA.” Let’s not forget, though, that this is clearly the work of a...
Read MoreAppendix 30.0
Did you ever hear that the human appendix is a “vestigial organ,” leftover from evolution? Does research support that claim? Absolutely NOT! In order to salvage the evolutionary “story” of our “leftover” organ, and to accommodate modern research, evolutionists are now being forced to say that the appendix had to evolve over 30 times!! Whoa!! That should really stretch anyone’s credulity beyond the breaking point for evolution! Check it out: Solving Appendix...
Read MoreThe Horned Lizard
What is a toad that is not really a toad at all? It’s the Phrynosoma, or Horned Lizard, found only in the western areas of the United States and Mexico. Usually called a Horned Toad, Horny Toad, and even Horned Frog, the Horned Lizard is neither a toad nor a frog. In fact it is not an amphibian at all. It is a reptile! The nicknames come from the horned lizard’s rounded toad-like face, and because it has a short, wide, and squat body like that of a frog or toad. Horned...
