Guests: Doug Sharp and Rich Geer There is a vast difference between Martian soil and soil on the earth. Martian soil does not contain organic matter and contains toxic perchlorates that interfere with the formation of life. Scientists speculate terraforming Mars into an environment that resembles earth, but that would mean transporting organic material to that planet, changing the atmosphere, warming the planet, creating an ocean, and starting life there. But if you compare t

Mars Rock Hints at Life Guests: Doug Sharp and Rich Geer Description: NASA’s Perseverance rover has found rocks pointing to signs of past life on Mars, according to a new study. The claim is that he discovery marks the clearest signs yet of life, although researchers stress further analysis is needed. Since landing on Mars in February 2021, Perseverance has been exploring the Jezero Crater (see path), which billions of years ago was believed to be a lake bed. Last July, the

Is there physical evidence that the solar system could be as young as 6,000 years like the Bible says? One of the most powerful arguments is that the magnetic fields decay at a constant rate, and based upon a 6,000 year creation date and the mass of the earth and planets, the strength of their magnetic fields fit the prediction of creationists. Dr. D. Russell Humphreys predicted the strength of the magnetic field of Uranus and Neptune in 1984 before the Voyager II flyby in 19

Evolutionists often use the problem of distant starlight as a gotcha argument against the Biblical creation event occurring thousands of years ago. Indeed, the account of creation in the Bible does not pretend to be anything less than miraculous, and if we have a creator God who is omniscient and powerful, transcending space and time, He is capable of carrying this out. If we expect then for the physics of light to follow the exact same parameters and rules we see today, we i

Until recently, a creationist model for the origin of the Universe has been one of the most difficult areas to address. Evolutionists ask the question, “If the Universe is young, created at the same time God created the Earth, how could starlight from galaxies millions of light years away be visible to us?’ Derek and Rich examine this topic addressed in the seventh chapter of the book Revolution Against Evolution by Doug Sharp.

David Harris was one of the very first creationists who proposed a model why we are able to see stars that were millions of light-years away. In 1978, he published his model in the Creation Research Society Quarterly, and several other creationists got on the bandwagon and started to propose their own models. David’s model had light from distant stars traveling at an infinite light speed, but at the time of the fall of man, it created an impedance that slowed down the speed o

Derek Marshall discusses the case for Dark Matter in the universe as he reviews Dr. Danny Faulkner’s article in the Answers Research Journal. Within the biblical creation movement, there is much resistance to the possibility of dark matter. One reason is that the motions of galaxies within clusters have been used as evidence of recent origin. But Danny makes the case for the existence of dark matter and discusses three different theories for how it operates: MOND, MACHOS and

Eduardo Baldaci is a Brazilian pastor who has a church in Orlando Florida where he teaches the word of God in Portuguese. He also has a love for astronomy and uses his teaching about the creation of the universe and solar system to show people God’s glory in the heavens.

Dr. Charles Jackson points out the problems in the story of stellar evolution.

Trans Neptune Objects, asteroids with moons, the new ninth planet, and unusual objects in the solar system all present problems for the evolutionary explanation for its origin.

There are 182 known moons orbiting the planets in the solar system, and these objects present challenges to theories regarding the evolution of the solar system.

An article by Dr. Danny Faulkner with Answers in Genesis explains the evidence that Pluto is young based upon the findings from the New Horizons probe to that outer planetoid.

An article by Dr. Jerry Bergman in the Creation Research Society Quarterly dispels the idea that the church held back scientific progress by persecuting Copernicus concerning his heliocentric model. In fact, the pope at that time, Leo X, invited him to be part of a project to update the calendar.

Dr. Charles Jackson reveals the current known problems with the Big Bang theory and why it is disingenuous to continue to teach it without talking about these issues.
