The existence of disease is often a stumbling block for people who want to believe in God. Doug and Rich discuss the origin of disease from a scientific and Biblical point of view and how that has changed over time.

One of the earliest encounters Doug had with a preacher who talked about creation was Garner Ted Armstrong. His entertaining presentation of the evolution of the dolphin with his nose migrating to the back of his head rang true as being a good argument against evolution, and that began a series of events where Doug was eventually drawn into Armstrong’s strange doctrines. A mixed message of truth and wackiness is a subtle trap. Doug recounts how he eventually extricated himsel

Answering the tough questions concerning fossil man. Rich has cast skulls of Cro-Magnon, Neanderthal and Australopithecines, and they are explained in the light of the biblical creation model.

Leading creation scientists compile a list of evolutionary predictions that have failed. Many of these predictions were made by Darwin himself, and they were foundational to his theory.

It is September, in time for school to start, and time for National Geographic to reveal yet another exciting ape-man fossil. This one is named Homo nadeli and its discovery in a cave in South Africa is triggering a lot of new scientific research and speculation. The Creation Research Society is mounting a challenge to have it examined for soft tissue and to have it C-14 dated. That would establish it as young.

From Atheistic Evolution to Biblical Young-Earth Creation there are a variety of origin models that have been proposed, and even within young-earth creation there are differences of opinions. Dr. Jerry Bergman has written an article describing the differences between these models helping us sort out which one is best.

Dr. Jerry Bergman’s book The Darwin Effect links the racist attitudes that existed in the world and show how Darwin’s theory validated them. The story of the elimination of the Tasmanian race reveals surprising links between the ideas of evolution and how it was used to justify genocide.

How would the world be different if Darwin never published Origin of Species, Lyell, Principles of Geology, and if Paley’s Natural Theology won the battle of the minds in the nineteenth century? Is the progress of science being held back because evolutionary theories dominate?

Ostriches are among a number of flightless birds that are classifed together for that reason, but there is so many differences between them that it is a stretch of the imagination to construct an evolutionary ancestry.

Dr. Jackson explains the confusion of natural selection with evolution and why peppered moths, Darwin’s finches and bacteria resistance to antibiotics do not explain the origin of new genetic information. Presentation at the MSU Origin Summit.
