Remember how evolution is used to explain almost everything , actually explaining nothing? Instead of using their skill and education to do something useful, some of Darwin's disciples produced some evoporn about how chimpanzees demonstrate the evolution of rhythms, and then music. There are some interesting things in the research, showing that the chimps have different styles and selected percussive devices. This is supposed to show that an unknown common ancestor of humans and apes also drummed. However, commonality can also be evidence of a common Designer. Chimpanzee playing drum kit, made at DeepAI Anyone who has studied on it a spell knows that music is intricate and many things are coordinated. No word of chimpanzees composing a drum piece or full-scale music to go with it. Also, our alleged evolutionary cousins have been around a long time, but they have not developed intricacy of drumming. Presuppose evolution and expect to have one's biases confirmed results in pusill...

For a mighty long time, the rings of Saturn got the attention and made other planets envious. Did you know there are rings around Uranus? Jupiter? Neptune? It takes special telescopes to see them, though. Then there are other celestial objects with rings. Way out yonder orbiting between Jupiter are icy planetesimals known as centaurs . Some of these have rings as well. Denizens of the secular science industry think they know how rings form. Like other materials, Quaoar does not perform its cosmic dance according to secular expectations. Artist impression of Quaoar and its ring, WikiComm / ESA ( CC BY-SA IGO 3.0 ), modified at PhotoFunia Quaoar resides in the Kuiper Belt, a junkyard of rock and ice planetesimals beyond the orbit of Neptune. It was discovered in 2002 and its moon Weywot in 2007. The names come from deities of the Tongva people. Interesting that something smaller than Pluto could have a moon. It is also interesting that it has rings, the discoveries of which were announ...

Something atheists and other evolutionists like to do is use religious people in their attacks on creation, and especially the Genesis Flood. I had someone appeal to the Pope on evolution (even though the Catholic Church does not have evolution as an official dogma). He was attempting to manipulate me through appeal to the wrong wrong authority — I reject that. In addition, it is not uncommon for theistic evolutionists to join with atheists on social(ist) media to demonize biblical creationists. Hail Darwin, blessed be! United in hate. Colorado River and Grand Canyon,  US Geological Survey  (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) There are some theological concerns in these posts, but the science and logical fallacies are helpful to creationists when encountering an atheist or TE who says Grand Canyon displays evidence of an old earth. A book and an article by TEs at BioLogos attack biblical creationists, and their flaws are exposed. Again I ask: Why is it so impor...

There are times when someone is confronted by an accuser, and after giving responses, is told, "You have an answer to everything!" That remark is often sarcastic because some people make things up and give ridiculous excuses. (Of course, the accuser may not want to accept legitimate replies.) Evolution has answers. It is interesting that the puny god of evolution is often treated as a powerful being with the ability to make decisions. A good part of the way evolution explains what is observed is from practiced storytelling, especially those in science fields. Spectacles modified from Freeimages /  Kenn Kiser Life and history (including imagined history) are interpreted through Darwin spectacles. Such a worldview only lets someone see evolution at every turn. There were some "science facts" videos I was watching about biology, but had to leave them in the dust. Some interesting material that was marred by evolutionary stories about the unobserved past, such as "...

Proponents of descent with modifications evolution have boxed themselves in with their fundamentally flawed worldview, but they have a rescuing device. A big one, because the problem is serious. An amniote track fossil was found in the wrong place according to evolutionary predictions. Researchers see the tracks and make a story about what went on. One reptile went across the ground, rain lightly fell, and others ran across the ground later. However, it is obvious that tracks disappear quickly. The scientists did not say how these were preserved. Modification of The Passion of Creation , Leonid Pasternak (1892) One problem for secularists is that it takes the right conditions to preserve the fossil tracks, and those would come from the Genesis Flood. What they cannot wave off is the dating of the tracks. Reptiles have always been reptiles since creation, and the tracks support what creationists say. Rewrite the evolution textbooks? Why, sure! They do it all the time. Reptiles belong to...

It seems that our Creator likes numbers, since he made so many of them. He gave us various forms of mathematics that are used extensively in astronomy (and elsewhere). Consider that all of those stars have names (Isaiah 40:26, Psalm 147:4). It is estimated that there are 200 sextillion stars. Scientists use those mind-boggling numbers on a regular basis, including astronomers, geologists, and even biologists. Someone suggested that people should stop saying million  for emphasis because the average person really cannot grasp such a number. DNA, Pixabay /  Gerd Altmann (geralt) Going the other way, people can understand seconds and minutes. When the numbers build up, they can be surprising. How many seconds back from July 25, 2025 did George Washington live? Over 9,259,000,000. A few decades ago, computer memory devices of significant volume were huge. Nowadays, portable memory of multiple terabytes can be tucked into a shirt pocket. DNA stores huge amounts of information ...

As stated here several times, many believers in particle-to-pachyderm evolution misrepresent biblical creationists in saying that we believe "GodDidIt" and scientific investigation is over. Not hardly! Creation scientists want to know how  God did something, and how things work. Meanwhile, evolutionists making such accusations are hypocritical. " It evolved " is a common explanation when empirical data are not available, and they appeal to evolution when something is not actually understood. Evolution is a science stopper — dangerously so in medical science . This is displayed in how they evosplain  lower back pain. Doctor examines woman's back, Pexels / Kaboompics The pain can be blamed through dysteleology on an incompetent Creator, or evolutionary presuppositions about our origins. In stories about the unobserved distant past, our apelike ancestors decided to stop walking on all fours and became bipedal. No one knows why. But we were not adapted for that kind...

As mentioned in " The Scopes Monkey Trial — 100 Years Later ," there is more material on the trial to present. Again, its real name was "The State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes." Plays and movies about the trial are mostly fictional and heavily biased. The pair of articles by Dr. Jason Lisle linked below were surprising, as I was expecting more of the same. Wrong. While there is a bit of overlap at the beginning, he went more deeply into events of the trial than several other articles. Things were really interesting when he discussed evidence. Monkey Trial, image made at NightCafe The trial was actually an attack on the validity of Christianity, beginning with creation, so it took several days. Surprisingly, ammunition by experts was presented in writing, but deemed irrelevant to the trial so the jury never saw it. Evolutionists each had their say on paper, but it did not go well. Some tactics never change. It is one thing to use "science" that is inc...

by Cowboy Bob Sorensen  On 20 July 1969, the Lunar Module Eagle  of Apollo 11 touched down on the surface of the moon. Armstrong and Aldrin walked on it with Collins was waiting in orbit in the Columbia  command module. At least, that is what they want you to think. Almost everyone accepted the narrative, and the Soviet Union offered reluctant congratulations to the Americans. Later, some people began saying that the six successful lunar landings never happened. It was all a conspiracy, and the landings were filmed on a soundstage on Earth.

It was a probe that was supposed to land, get samples, and return them to Earth. It crashed. The Soviets did  have some contributions to space exploration over the years, but not that time. (For reference, their Luna 9 in 1966 was the first spac...

Those rascally disciples of Charlie Darwin, constantly trying to find out how something evolved — even if they do not understand it. A huge undertaking to map the human brain demonstrated that there are billions of neurons, billions of other cells, trillions of connections. Yep, that puppy is complex! Since the brain is so involved, efforts at mapping it have been unsuccessful. Scientists also do not understand its function. Also, understanding consciousness eludes the scientists that admit it exists. Yet somehow, some think they are learning how it evolved. X-ray-style image of skull and brain, Freeimages /  Miranda Knox What is troubling is that evolution zealots learn of studies that purport to demonstrate evolution, then assume the researchers are correct. After that, they are more convinced by the deception they received and even try to badger creationists with this kind of hooey. The study was wrong in several ways, and if researchers did not have their heads stuck in their s...
