I recently came across a very well-known Christian apologist and he shared how he did not feel that the Bible teaches young-earth Creationism, but rather, he said that he believes that there are good hints within the Bible to show an old age. This is a great resource regarding the age of the earth: Does the Age of the Earth Matter to the Gospel? – Part 1 He further suggested that Young Earth Creationists do not fully understand the best evidences...
Read MoreDeath within History…
The following is an excerpt from an article describing a radio show regarding the age of the Earth. What do you think about the question asked and the response in this article? “the caller proceeded with his main question: “ … knowing the world as we see today, if extrapolating back millions of years, we have millions of years of death (as the engine of evolution), suffering, cancers, parasites and diseases. How is all that equated for if the Fall is responsible for...
Read MoreProblem with a Natural Origin for the Moon?
“Apparently, there is no credible alternative at the moment, and extreme, untested physics seems to be required: “The simulations of a Moon-forming impact have yet to produce a moon that fits all the puzzle pieces, geochemical and otherwise. … We are attempting to model processes of physics that are extreme as compared to current Earth conditions. We have never observed these processes in nature or in the laboratory.”7 Older theories are still seen as implausible:...
Read MoreWhat About Aliens?
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? For the Answers to these questions and more: Check out this film: http://alienintrusion.com/ Check out these articles by AOI speaker, researcher, and writer Brian Mariani regarding the “Ancient Alien”...
Read MoreWhich Age is True?
In this picture, we find a lengthy list of age of the Earth estimates based on uniformitarian dating methods. All of the examples shown estimate a much younger Earth than 4.5 billion years. Now, an evolutionist would argue that the Earth goes through cycles over time and thus that is the reason for many of these dates appearing younger, but that is an unprovable assumption as we cannot directly observe the conditions of the past. We would also say that these dates are...
Read MoreWhere Did All The Water Go?
“If there really was a global flood, where did all that water go?” “How could there be a worldwide flood? We do not have enough water to cover the whole earth above the tallest mountains.” These arguments sound good on the surface until one dives a bit deeper. The answer to this question is amazingly simple yet well-known (and even Christian) scholars have never thought of it. In fact, popular “progressive Creation” teacher, Hugh...
Read MoreHow Old is the Earth?
Are we simply learning more through better science and technology or is this the result of a continuing trend away from the Bible? Estimates for the Age of the Earth: Throughout History – Bible-believers – based on genealogies – about 6,000 years 1779 – Comte de Buffon – 78,000 1786 – Abraham Werner – 1 million years 1800’s – Charles Lyell – estimated 80 million years for the Cenozoic Era alone. 1860 – based on amount of fossil-filled sedimentary rocks – 3...
Read MoreGhost Craters and the Moon’s Black Eye!
The surface of the Moon is pocked-marked by craters, but what is possibly the most interesting are the Ghost Craters! The moon’s black spots are the part of the surface that is made up of the rock – basalt. Basalt is a volcanic rock – formed due to lava flows. As you can see with the naked eye, those are huge regions across the surface of the moon that must have had huge lava flows. Based on observations, it looks like the black spots or marias have formed due to huge...
Read MoreMagnetic Reversals found frozen in the rocks!
Here is a fascinating article – it shows how there is evidence of magnetic reversals “frozen” within the layers of rock. But what this article focuses on is research on a very small volcanic rock layer that based on its size could have only cooled (from lava) and formed within 15 days. What is significant is that it shows the complete magnetic reversal from the volcanic layer below and the volcanic layer above. This shows that it doesn’t take thousands of years for the...
Read MoreIncredible Odds Against Earth’s Perfect Placement
“In 1966…Carl Sagan announced that there were two important criteria for a planet to support life: The right kind of star, and a planet the right distance from that star…As our knowledge of the universe increased, it became clear that there were far more factors necessary for life than Sagan supposed. His two parameters grew to 10 and then 20 and then 50…As factors continued to be discovered, the number of possible planets [that could support life] hit zero,...
Read More“Earth Has Done Remarkable Things”
Consider this statement by Gregory Laughlin, an astrophysicist and planet hunter at the University of California, Santa Cruz: “From our anthropocentric viewpoint, we naturally separate ourselves from the planet that we live on, but if one adopts the point of view of an external observer, it is the ‘planet’ (taken as a whole) that has done these remarkable things.” Notice how his worldview affects his conclusions. No matter who you are or what...
