Beauty is a spiritual quality, and it is something that is difficult to measure and define scientifically. Some of the limitations of science are in the areas where the spiritual is dominant such as in the fruits of the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance. Beauty is often measured using the Golden Ratio where the porportion of sizes seem to fit a pattern. Symmetry, perspective, color also appeal to the eye, but mo

The life cycle of the butterfly goes through four stages: egg, caterpillar, chrysalis and adult. The origin of this seemingly Rube Goldberg process is inexplicable from an evolutionary scenario. Inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar turns into a jelly of undifferentiated cells. Then, they all begin to diversify and assume their role as parts of the adult butterfly.

Claims of fossil finds with feather imprints on dinosaurs have been investigated by several scientists whose detailed studies concluded that the fibers found were that of collagen. Other scientists dispute this, including some creationists who point out that even if dinosaurs with feathers are found, that is not conclusive evidences that birds evolved from reptiles. They just would be another created baramin or kind.

Ever since Darwin declared the tonsils to be a rudimentary or useless organ, doctors have routinely removed them as a preventive measure against colds. In the 1930’s to 1950’s, half of all children had that procedure done as a matter of course. But now the removal of tonsils is associated with all kinds of risks and diseases and nowadays the medical community discourages the removal of tonsils except only in extreme emergencies.

Derek Marshall discovers a new perspective on the origin of life experiments where he reviews the results and finds that the amino acids of higher molecular weight and complexity were not found. He finds a reason for this and explains that this in of itself is reason to believe that evolution of life from non-life is impossible within the deep time constraints evolutionists give.

One of the central claims of evolution is that as life went through its progression of development, some of the organs and features began to lose their original function and became vestiges of their original purpose. The appendix is one of these that in the past was considered to be such, but now the functions are known. Jerry Bergman’s book “Useless Organs: The Rise and Fall of a Central Claim of Evolution” shows that this argument has fallen by the wayside with the discover

The left recurrent laryngeal nerve proceeds from the brain down the spine, goes around the aorta and then is routed back up to the larynx. This is cited as an example of poor design by Richard Dawkins and was one of the things that convinced him that living things are just a collection of evolutionary mistakes. But I issue a challenge to Dawkins to surgically reroute this nerve, shorten it and as a result improve a person’s speech and voice.

The claim made by evolutionists that the eye is poorly designed is irresponsible, and reflects a lack of understanding of basic biology. Their argument is that the retina is backwards of what is expected with the photoreceptors pointing away from the source of light. But if you examine closely what actually goes on in the eye, the photoreceptors are in a spot where cells are replaced rapidly, and need to be near the blood vessels where nutrients are supplied and waste cells a

A new fossil found in Peru called Peregocetus is much more like an otter than a whale. It is interesting that in an attempt to prove evolution, paleontologists line up fossil creatures in a sequence much like aligning silverware in a sequence from forks to spoons. The incredible number of changes needed to evolve a whale from a land mammal defies credibility.

Michigan’s Geology tells a story of how sediment was laid down during the flood of Noah in a circular pattern in a basin. It was sheared off with flood runoff and then glaciated. The idea of uniformitarianism was used by Charles Lyell to estimate the age of the Niagara Falls by extrapolating the rate of erosion found in the present to come up with a time scale. This time scale is disproven by historical records, yet it is used as a foundation for evolutionary age estimates.

Derek Marshall shows that the Bible exhibits the use of fibonacci numbers and that is also reflected in life. The fibonacci series is 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144, 233, (377) and each number adds to the previous to get the next number. This pattern is found throughout life and in the orders given by God to build the ark and the temple. Dr. Don DeYoung shows the use of the fibonacci series in the way leaves are arranged on trees in a Math Matters article.

In 1970, a little tract was published by Inter-Varsity Press called the Western Book of the Dead. It was a parody of postmodern culture brought about by the assumptions of evolution where nothing became something, life came from chemicals and that man resulted. It also assumed that the rumor of God and His son was an invention of man. The results are that love becomes meaningless and culture dies. Man ceases to be man, and instead becomes the most terrifying animal on the fac

A visit to a modern art museum in Arizona prompts a reaction from Doug. Where’s the art? The entrance is like descending into a dungeon, and it was difficult to differentiate between what was art or a political statement. This is a reflection of a lost postmodern culture that has no reference to beauty, truth, purpose and meaning. You can trace this back to the “enlightenment” and the rejection of the bible as authority. Modern art today is contaminated with Darwinian bloodst

What are the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and how should they operate in the body of Christ? This is a subject where there is a lot of confusion and various opinions, but what does the word of God say? Did they cease with the apostles, or do they still operate today? What does this do with creation and evolution?

Upon realizing that the arguments about abiogenesis that creationists are making are effective, and that it is not possible for life to come from non-life, an atheist asks the question: “There are a thousand gods to choose from. Which one do you choose?” Origin of life experiements lead to deism. But beyond that, what is there that leads you to Christ specifically? These answers are crystal clear from the Bible.

Dr. Jerry Bergman is updating his book about vestigial organs, the concept that there are organs evolution left behind in its development that are no longer useful. Around 1900, there was a list of 180 such organs that were considered vestigial. Now, due to modern research, there are none left. All are functional and those functions are known.

Modern genetic DNA studies show that it is possible to show that all of mankind is descended from one family. Genetic information from 23 and Me and Ancestry.com reveals insights into Doug’s family and Robert Carter’s theory about the origin of mankind from Noah is discussed.

Carl Kerby has a ministry called Reasons for Hope, and he also has his testimony in the book Persuaded by the Evidence. Carl relates his story how he spent years in church but never understood the plan of salvation. Finally, after attending a Lowell Lundstrom crusade, he received a simple gospel message and his life was radically transformed. He is traveling the United States delivering short lively DeBunked messages in his DeBunked VW van and on the Internet. This one is abo

Petroglyphs, pictographs, ruins, ancient carvings and artwork depict creatures that resemble dinosaurs. We say that the dragons of mythology are the dinosaurs of science, and the preponderance of art from the ancients documents this.

A Christian posted this question on his FaceBook site wondering, with all of the evil in the world, and with abortion causing lives to cease right at the start, if for many it might be better if they had never been born. That raises questions why God would create or allow such a condition to exist in this world.
