A popular internet saying among folks who reject the Big Bang is, "In the beginning, there was nothing. Which exploded." While some supporters downplay the explosion which supposedly began everything,  they affirm the Frankensteined-in cosmic inflation — which is not even a hypothesis . After the secular miracle of the Big Bang, the universe rapidly expanded and stars formed. These were primarily hydrogen and helium. Stars grew old, blew up, scattered debris, formulated the other elements, and all that good stuff. Those first stars formed are called population III. Artist’s impression, field of Population III stars, NOIRLab / NSF / AURA  J. da Silva / Spaceengine / M. Zamani ( CC BY 4.0 ) Just as there is no evidence for the existence of the Oort cloud as a source of long-term comets, there is no evidence of population III stars of the early universe. But the secular science industry requires these things in their cosmic evolution narratives. Interesting that cosmologists g...

Biblical creationists believe what the Bible says about creation, which includes how the earth is young. The global Genesis Flood has many attributes that secularists avoid or try to explain away. Many times, questions are asked in bad faith; they think will destroy the belief system of creationists. Some of those questions resonate with Christians as well because they have wondered the same thing — but they genuinely want to know the answers. One of these is about how plants and fishes survived the Genesis Flood, since saltiness levels would have changed. NOAA Fisheries image of two sturgeons Keep in mind that people are starting from current knowledge about the world, but there are facts about the antediluvian world for which we can only speculate. Even so, there are characteristics of living plants and animals that can be examined and reach some possibly surprising answers. For several points to consider, click on " How did fish and plants survive the Genesis Flood? "

Once again, a comment was made on a post doubting evolution with another claim that "evolution has been seen to occur." Uh huh. With the disingenuous elasticity of definitions, any variation that is seen  is called evolution, as is speciation — the latter is something creationists agree with. Fire salamanders were used as an example of evolution in action. Centuries ago, walls were built around religious buildings. These lizards could not climb the walls, so they were separated from their pals. Each group evolved in its own way. Fire salamander ( Salamandra salamandra ), WikiComm / Petar Milošević ( CC BY-SA 4.0 ) Of course, the owlhoot making the remark ignored the fact that they didn't change into something else. They remained fire salamanders. The idea was taken further that building cities changes evolution. The additional claim that religion and cultural practices cause evolution is...truly bizarre. The Master Engineer designed organisms to adapt. Evolution is not a...

 Way back in 1947,  Rudolph Zallinger completed a five-year project . He painted a huge mural called  The Age of Reptiles  that can be seen Yale Peabody Museum. It garnered awards, and a section was used on a  US postage stamp in 1970  (Scott catalog 1390). Scientific views of dinosaurs have changed, so some depictions are now inaccurate. Unfortunately, his work was based on a myth promoted by atheists and other minerals-to-Megalosaurus evolutionists. The so-called Age of Reptiles is a myth to help bolster the greater myth of evolution. Tyrannosaurus rex  toy figure, Pixabay /  Eric Labayle Biblical creationists reject the Age of Reptiles on theological grounds, but this is not just a simplistic reaction. It is based on the study of biblical texts and logic. Something else to consider was how Charles Lyell, a lawyer who was instrumental in establishing deep time, wanted to devalue the Bible. Not only was the myth of the Age entirely made up, ...

It may come as a shock to some folks, but scientists are not in lockstep. This is clearly evident among atoms-to-atheist evolutionists. Consider the popular myth that dinosaurs were devastated by the impact of a big rock from space, but there are numerous other speculations as to what made them go extinct. Apparently some of the diverse views among evolutionists have been caused by the secular science industry promoting leftist causes. Medical exceptions aside, there are only two sexes; the Creator said so (Genesis 1:27). Evolutionary biologists are getting obstreperous over the truth. Battle of Vercellae , Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1729 One side claims that sex is not so simple, as both males and females have traits shown in each other. (Big deal. Some men are not interested in stereotypical masculine things, and there are women who do not fit the mold of femininity, yet most do not doubt their sexes.) The other side of the issue is attacked by cancel culture because they stand for w...

One of the most amazing follies of atheism is its adherents spend time and energy hating God (and often hating Christians), then claim they "lack belief" that he exists. There is no evidence, they say. If they would take off their Darwin spectacles  and honestly look around, they would cease to be atheists. (The same applies to agnostics.) Known as general revelation , the Creator has made himself known quite clearly through his creation. However, people willingly and unrighteously suppress the truth. Esopus Lake from High Banks Preserve , Unsplash / Cowboy Bob Sorensen What would constitute "proof" for an unbeliever? Professing atheists and agnostics demand scientific  proof, but this is illogical. They presuppose and then rail against a "straw god" of their own imaginings instead of dealing with the God of the Bible: He is spirit, and not subject to man-made scientific evidence. God's existence is not restricted to scientists or others who may be con...

The more nature is studied, the more complex it becomes. For example, microscopic cells were believed to be simple and described as "grapes in jelly." Equipment has improved over the years and now cells are known to be extremely complex. Going the other way, the cosmos is amazingly huge. Dwarves, giants, and other kinds of stars have been known for years, but with those powerful telescopes, new terminology has been utilized. Now we have supergiants, hypergiants, and other names that seem to be used because astronomers are running out of adjectives. Then there are galaxies. The Passion of Creation  with JWST image from  NASA  (who does not endorse this site), both modified Remember, galaxies are where most stars are grouped. The James Webb Space Telescope was expected to find what the universe looked like soon after the Big Bang. It did not go well. Instead, numerous problems (such as large galaxies ) are going against the standard secular model of cosmic formation and evo...

Proponents of evolution believe that they have evidence, yes? Many also claim that their evidence that destroys creation science, yes? There are many instances where evolutionists claim to prove or give evidence for their speculations but fail. The idea that flightless birds such as the chicken-sized kiwi, the huge ostrich, and several others devolved from a common flying ancestor was put forward. People read the ostentatious claims and believe them — but fail to use critical thinking, which shows how evidence works against the narrative. North Island Brown Kiwi, Wikimedia Commons / The.Rohit ( CC BY 2.0 ) The story is that these birds devolved from one flighted ancestor, but if the secular science industry was thinking matters through, they would see that they would have a better story if it was the opposite! At any rate, there is no fossil evidence to support their claims. The preposterous idea that a loss of traits is evidence for evolution was used, but that remains absurd to thin...

Again, it is necessary to remind people to keep pressure on evolutionists . They have a prairie schooner-full of bad science, hoaxes, terrible logic, lies, and even outright fraud to bolster something that is often called a "proven fact." A fact does not need junk to bolster it, but vestigial organs are used to support evolution. Also called structures, they are vestiges — leftovers — from our supposed evolutionary past. This is something that should shame the medical science community because tonsils, adenoids, the appendix, and others were called unnecessary. Why? They were not understood; an argument from silence . Hammond C3 organ, Wikimedia Commons /  Emilio Muñoz  (Public Domain), modified Most of the organs/structures in humans labeled as vestigial have been found to have important functions, and some of the remainders are disputed. Sneaky evolutionists have even redefined the meaning of vestigial so they can continue to use it as an argument against creation. This sc...

In The Chronicles of Riddick , "You keep what you kill" meant that if you eliminate someone, you keep their possessions, title, and so on. There is also a variation on the Golden Rule: "Whoever has the gold makes the rules." This article's title is a variation on another common saying. This site and others have documented ad nauseum  how leftists have been dominating the culture for years. Political things have slopped over into the secular science industry, and identity politics have become prominent. A person's abilities are less important than their identities. Plush bear chained to treasure chest, Pixabay / Davie Bicker People have been hired to do jobs where the lives of others are at stake. Do you want a firefighter, police officer, air traffic controller, or even an educator to be someone who passed the requisite exams, or because someone is a member of a special interest group that leftists promote? Secularists are using the spoils of culture wars to...
