One of the biggest reasons people give why they believe in evolution are the evidence from fossil man. Dr. John Sanford takes on this problem in his new book Contested Bones. He shows that the fossils purported to be ape-men are either inbred degenerative humans, mixtures of ape and human bones, or extinct apes.

Could numerical structures in the Bible correspond to the ordering of the chemical elements? In this recorded lecture from the West Michigan Creation Fellowship, researcher Derek Marshall explores three biblical structures that appear to align with the numerical order of the periodic table under specific constraints. The presentation examines: The Creation Function - a spiral mathematical model derived from harmonic-series growth that produces periodic table structure. The Daniel Image - a constrained numerical interpretation of the metal statue and its dimensions described in Daniel 2 and 3. Solomon’s Molten Sea - a geometric architectural model that mirrors orbital capacities of the periodic table. Using statistical methods, including Monte Carlo null testing, the talk investigates whether these correspondences arise by coincidence or reflect deeper numerical order.

To gain any credibility, evolutionists need to explain how feathers in birds evolved from reptilian scales. Rather than lining up a handful of fossil impressions such as archaeopteryx, they need to do an analysis of the DNA that produces scales and the DNA that produces feathers. These are totally different designs that won’t convert from one to another, one point mutation at a time. Each mutation must be either viable or neutral, contributing to the health of the organism. According to Dr. Jerry Bergman, the complex anatomy of a feather varies, depending on the feather’s function. For example, the ‘complex morphology’ of the flight or contour feather includes a long shaft (usually hollow, always strong) and the web that flares out from the shaft in the form of roughly planar vanes on either side. The shaft consists of a hollow, stiff structure (often called a quill or vein) termed the rachis that serves as a solid-but-flexible support for branches called barbs. The rachis and barbs are analogous to tree trunks and tree branches. Each parallel barb slants diagonally from the shaft and has numerous smaller side branches or barbules (or webs) of different types that overlap those of the neighboring barbs in a herringbone pattern resembling a miniature replica of the whole feather. The flight feather of a large bird can have as many as a million barbules. The barbules in flying birds are held firmly to the next web by ‘hooklets’ called hamuli that function much like Velcro®. These branches and hamuli form a web sufficiently flexible, yet also stiff and dense enough so that when the bird flies, very little air or water can seep through the spaces. The branches and hooklets, in turn, contain barbicles. The feather barbules also must be strong, yet flexible enough so that they will not break in the wind. Their design enables birds to ride air currents more gracefully than the best glider human engineers have ever designed. If the hooklets are lacking, such as in the plumes of the ostrich, the bird cannot fly. Hooklets are designed so that they can separate under certain conditions, preventing wind damage to the wing and feathers, but can be easily reattached when the bird preens its feathers (ruffled feathers normally prompt preening behavior). Humans can repair a ruffled feather simply by drawing it between their fingers. Preening behavior is part of the irreducible complexity of the total feather design. https://answersingenesis.org/birds/the-evolution-of-feathers-a-major-problem-for-darwinism/

Brian Lauer presents the scientific evidence supporting the Hydroplate Theory and explains it. Dr. Walt Brown developed this theory in the 1990's, and in his book "In the Beginning" he makes predictions based upon his theory that proved to be true when new discoveries were made. Researchers use phrases such as "unexpected", "fossil oddity", "longest standing puzzle", "unanswered questions" when encountering these discoveries, yet the Hydroplate Theory answers these questions. These include giant redwoods, dinosaurs and mammoths near the north pole, the presence of marine fossils on top of the Himalayan Mountains, and the rise of high elevation plateaus. The assumption of the Hydroplate Theory is a body of water under the earth's crust that existed before the flood. When Noah's Flood occurred, this water burst forth as the fountains of the deep were broken up, propelling material beyond the escape velocity of the earth.
