For Darwin's disciples, time is a hero in their evolution stories. It has been pointed out before that evolution requires millions or billions of years to happen. Cosmologists, geologists, and others strive to "find" those years — which are constantly assumed anyway. Consider that geologists tenaciously cling to slow and gradual uniformitarianism, reluctantly admitting rapid processes occur when they are in a corner. Also, the myth that humans and chimpanzee DNA is 98%–99% similar was debunked, but pertinent information was obscured in footnotes  because the timeline was too small. Sulawesi crested macaque, Wikimedia Commons / R.Rahasia ( CC BY-SA 4.0 ), modified at PhotoFunia Obscuring the data, denying the evidence, and even lying outright are not science, old son. Those are tactics to protect the narrative. People are desperate to deny the fact that life was created, and created recently. An old attempt to make evolution plausible (which presupposes deep time) is the ...

The other day, I went to visit Hammond Suisse at his spread and helped with some odds and ends. Day became night. We were taking a break, looking up at the stars. That always stirs me on the inside. Canada geese were honking and flying in formation, darker areas against the night. "Do they use the stars to know where they're going?" he asked. I replied, "Sure do. The Creator gave us the sun, moon, and stars for lots of things including navigation," I replied. "We're not the only ones to take advantage of them." Male bogong moth ( Agrotis infusa ), Wikimedia Commons / Birgit E. Rhode ( CC BY 4.0 ) Down 'Straya way, researchers performed some interesting science on bogong moths. Some of these critters migrate 1,000 km (621 miles) at night. Testing revealed that they navigate by the stars. Since the world turns, so they had to adjust for that as well. It is not a learned or taught behavior, as they do not live long enough to pass along the inform...

Biblical creation science is usually rejected out of hand by misotheists and other believers in dust-to-dispatcher evolution, but they seldom examine whether or not it is internally consistent. Our view covers a great deal of ground because it involves theology as well as science. Creationists maintain that God created everything very good  and creatures were vegetarian in the beginning. What we see now is carnivory, attack and defensive mechanisms (some of which are very impressive), and parasitism. Something must have drastically changed between creation and today. Specifically, a Pacific rattlesnake, USFWS / Miguel Jimenez (PD) The origin of those things admittedly involves speculation, and we have to be consistent with both the Bible and science. (Darwin's disciples evosplain with speculation and arbitrary assertions, then pretend they are offering scientific conclusions.) Creatures need to eat, others do not want to be eaten. It is reasonable that (among other factors), the ...

My wife was a lover of blue jays in our area, and talked to them like they were pets. I told her about their cousins the scrub jays that live out west. Very recently, I learned about green jays which live in southwest North America. Thrill jaybirds by giving them peanuts (in the shell) and hazelnuts. Although the ranges of blue and green jays are separate, a couple got romantic and a hybrid of the blue and green jay was born in Texas. Not just different species, but up one level as different genera . Blue (a), hybrid (b), green (c) jays, WikiComm / B.R. Stokes and T.H. Keitt ( CC BY 4.0 ) Jaybirds are intelligent, along with other corvids like crows, ravens, magpies, and the like. The fact that this hybridization happened brings up the concept of the biblical created kinds . Some folks believe that kind is another word for species, but that is not the case. (Conventional scientists often disagree on definitions of species.) Biblical kinds are similar to the family level in biological...

The trunk of an elephant looks awkward, but it is a vital tool for the critter's life. When it trumpets by forcing air through the trunk, it is a form of communication as well as expressing emotion. It can be heard for a great distance. As all y'all know, biomimicry is taking a concept seen in nature and adapting it for human purposes. This was applied when imitating an elephant trunk to design a robotic arm. Interesting how secularists admire things they design, but trunks came from evolution and chance, not the Master Engineer. But I digress. Elephants using their trunks, Unsplash / Wietse Jongsma Those trunks can be used for snorkeling (yes, really), visual communication, and other things. What robotics people wanted to study was the ability to grasp and the flexibility. They had to develop a special nonmetallic material and precise controls because the 40,000 muscles the elephant uses are beyond their ken. Conventional robotic arms with their metal skeletal bars and lots of...

It is amazing how denizens of the secular science industry are looking to use artificial intelligence to advance evolution, yet they ignore the conflict in the theories. That is, particles-to-programmer evolution is supposedly a trial-and-error unguided process, but AI requires intelligent design. When robots work well to help us in highly repetitive or dangerous activities,  domo arigato  to them. But when they fail, it is often spectacular and possibly dangerous. Some secularists think AI robots can supplement or even replace humans. Robot tripping and falling, made at DeepAI — but I did not ask for three arms The field of biomimetics  is studying creatures in nature and attempting to apply their traits for human use. If you study on it, having robots walk, dance, and so on is an example of biomimetics. It takes intelligence and money to have them imitate or surpass some human activities. Centuries ago, I was going down some basement steps in my stocking feet. There we...

People who have paid attention to history, and those who are curious about country name changes in Africa, may know that parts of Africa were claimed and divvied up by Europeans and the United States. British-controlled Nigeria became a kind of "see what happens" social experiment. The northern part of Nigeria was given control to a violent Islamist tribe called the Fulani. Apparently they were not really African, but lighter-skinned pillaging nomads. Those in charge were operating by Darwinian presuppositions and gave the Fulani control. It did not go well. Nigerian festival, Pexels / Darkshade Photos Social Darwinists were wrecking Northern Nigeria, and they heavily utilized the racism built into the Bearded Buddha's teachings. People were thought to be animals, were treated as such — and acted like they were. However, Christian governance further south was a different story. The area was prospering, and people were in leadership positions because of their skills, not b...

While the Creator may very well have designed creatures to be pleasing to the eye, "cuteness" is subjective on our parts. We like when a kitty purrs, and may be surprised that some of their huge wild cousins also purr. But big and little cats are predators that hunt and kill. Aww, look at the cute chimpanzee! He is smiling! When an adult chimp is smiling, it is showing its teeth and thinking about violently ending you. That is why baby chimps are dressed up and ride tricycles, which seems to be abusive. Lion eating a zebra, Unsplash / Leon Pauleikhoff Atheists will take examples of predation, venom, and other unpleasantness in nature to say that if God exists, he made awful creatures. Meanwhile, death is a hero to evolution because the more fit take the place of the less fit. They do not want to get the full story from God's perspective. In the beginning, everything was very good. Sin entered the picture, and things went downhill quickly. As much as we love to sing about...

Everywhere we turn, Darwinism is assumed to be true. People even make up their own fake truths to seem all sciency and stuff. A video made an assertion about behavior being based on caveman days. The claim was unsubstantiatable, and when I called out the video maker on the false claim, a fundamentalist evolutionist railed at me that evolution is the best supported fact of science. Indeed, many people claim evolution is a proven fact — showing their ignorance of how science works. Algae pond near Hurley, NY, Unsplash / Cowboy Bob Sorensen (modified) "That's a pretty bold statement, Cowboy Bob!" No, not really. Things that have been considered scientific facts have been removed many times. What science does quite well is disprove  things. Also, there are scientists who admit that particles-to-planetologist evolution has many problems. F'rinstance, since abiogenesis (the secularist origin of life) violates the law of biogenesis and cannot be explained, evolutionists try...

It is winter in these parts, and that means cold temperatures, ice, and snow. On a snowy day, I saddled up and rode into town for some supplies. As I was in the general store, my prospector friend Stormy Waters and her friend Ruby Slippers burst through the door, brushing the snow from their jackets. We talked while they shopped. Ruby does not mind the weather, but Stormy wants it to go away and have greener things come back to life. While I feel the same as Stormy, I have become stoical about it and endure winter. Winter trees in snow, Pexels / Jeffrey Czum , modified at PhotoFunia Ancient pagan cultures celebrated the arrival of spring, which meant the return of life. Or so they thought. What those folks could not know is that there is an abundance of life in winter. Do you really want to eat snow? Yes, it is frozen water vapor, but there are living things in it! When it comes to the seasons, we often associate life with spring, not winter. Depending on where you live, winter brings ...

An icon of minerals-to-meteorologist evolution is the Neanderthal, which was portrayed as a hulking brute. Stupid, too, since it still had some of its apelike ancestor in its nature. Some folks still believe that image and call someone a Neanderthal as an insult. As extensive documentation reveals , Neanderthals were intelligent and creative. Evolutionists were forced to admit that Neanderthals were fully human. Indeed, their DNA is found in most population groups (but is rare in sub-Saharan groups). A controversy remains: Where did they go? Image cropped and enhanced, original: Flickr /  Clemens Vasters  ( CC BY 2.0 ) Since they were fully human and freely shared their DNA , they most likely did not go extinct. Instead, they probably assimilated. We have met the Neanderthal, and he is us. Lonely Neanderthal boy sees a group of modern humans and is attracted to a woman. Next thing you know, they married up and he is a part of that clan. That's because they were created, not ev...

It is not uncommon for Bible deniers to find excuses to justify their rebellion, but some go further and machinate alleged contradictions and absurdities. These are usually framed as "Gotcha!" statements and questions. They occasionally raise questions that some believers also want answered. One tinhorn, geology professor Ian Plimer, wrote a (now out of print) book called Telling Lies for God: Reason vs Creationism . Aside from the clear bias, he made himself a liar and CMI set the record straight . Jimmy Li has a resource refuting hundreds  of such claims . Then there are bats as birds? Flying fruit bat, Flickr /  Tambako The Jaguar  ( CC BY-ND 2.0 ) While many of the items in the above references can be attributed to superficiality, carelessness, and lack of doing some homework, others take a bit more digging. Darwin's Flying Monkeys™ on the internet exhibit an attitude like, "Haw, haw, haw! We're supposed to believe your Bible, but it says that bats are birds!...

As discussed previously, Intelligent Design is a movement that is decidedly not biblical creation science . Evolutionists (especially atheists) on social(ist) media do not seem to have received the memo, thus telling the opposite of the truth. They also spread myths about the Dover ruling. One tinhorn left a comment on a post that the ruling devastated ID both legally and scientifically, but he clearly did not know what he was talking about. Study on it a spell: How can science be settled by a judge — and a biased one at that? Flagellum base diagram, Wikimedia Commons / LadyofHats (public domain) Dr. Michael Behe's presentation of irreducible complexity (where all of the parts need to be in place and functioning from the get-go) was ridiculed, but the bacterial flagellum is irreducibly complex nonetheless . Since 2005, that fact has only been reinforced. Although Dr. Behe came up with the term, biblical creationists have been using irreducible complexity arguments for quite some ...

My unregistered assault keyboards are ready to face the challenges of 2026, so brace yourselves. On this calendar change day, we have an interesting analysis of how secularists insist that the similarity between human and chimpanzee DNA is around ninety-eight percent. (They still do this even though that number has been disproved by both creationist and secular scientists .) It is needed by the human evolution story for when humans and chimps supposedly diverged — a larger percentage difference makes the timeframe useless for them. Human-Chimpanzee DNA, made at  Night Cafe , then  removebg Although many do not like to admit it, the idea of ninety-eight to ninety-nine percent similarity is based on bad sequencing in the early days, and contaminated samples . Even so, the myth marched on because it suited their story. That's not science, old son. The author of the article linked below takes an interesting approach by comparing the best-understood organism, E. coli . Yes, a singl...

Large numbers of honey bees are dying off, and it is not just a case of, "Bugs die, so what?" Mount up, ride to the top of the hill, and get the big picture. Living things have their ecological niches, and honey bees are important to many other organisms — including humans. They are the most important pollinators to the survival of many kinds of plants, and they produce honey and beeswax that are important for humans. Flowers attract the bees in a mutually-beneficial relationship. This presents one of several problems for evolutionists. Honey Bees in honeycomb, Pixabay /  PollyDot Bees need pollen to survive, plants produce pollen and need honey bees for its distribution. But according to the evolution story, they did not exist at the same time. Darwinists say wasps existed at that time and honey bees came later. However, there is no compelling evidence to support that concept. Indeed, the evolution of insects which suddenly appeared in the fossil record is also problematic. ...

Although secularists will not admit it, convergent evolution is essentially a secular miracle. It is claimed that various critters have similar traits (such as bats and dolphins both using echolocation) that evolved independently. There is no evidence for such traits evolving even once, but the claim is made for multiple creatures. Though convergent evolution is a myth, it is an icon of particles-to-professor evolution. One of the alleged examples of it and evolution in general is the blind cavefish. Darwin's disciples point to loss of traits (such as their blindness) as examples of evolution. Blind cavefish, Wikimedia Commons /  Syrio  ( CC BY-SA 4.0 ) Adaptation fits within biblical creation science models, and blind cavefish show several. (One of these is how they adjust to lower oxygen levels in caves.) Creationists believe they were designed to adapt  because the Master Designer frontloaded organisms with genetic diversity, epigenetics, and all that good stuff. Evo...

Here is a critter that does not seem to be famous outside of sub-Saharan Africa and parts of the Middle East, but Westerners who read their Bibles may recognize the word. Maybe. The Hebrew word can be translated different ways. They look cute, but watch out for nasty sharp big pointy teeth. So what is this beastie? It is complicated. There are distinct species that are markedly different. The rock hyraxes (sometimes called dassies ) have a very involved social structure, whereas the tree hyraxes are nowhere near as social.  Pair of hyraxes, Pexels / Guerrero De la Luz Biblical creationists refer to the created kinds , a concept that has some resemblance to conventional ideas. The kind  is generally placed at the family  level. We have no problem with speciation. There is no evidence for hyrax evolution, but variations are clearly seen. The Master Engineer designed them to be able to adapt for unique lifestyles as their characteristics demonstrate. Hyraxes (or hyraces) are...

For a while, the coelacanth was considered a transitional form, using its fins to begin the process of walking. It also disappeared from the fossil record, then reappeared in layers dated later. Whereja go, whadja do? What was probably a backhand at Christianity, they called this reappearance a Lazarus taxon . Thinking people should be given pause because of not only the disappearance and reappearance interpretations of the fossil record, but also the description of the critter's behavior without having seen it in action. The coelacanth has humiliated evolutionists — again. Coelacanth,  NOAA  (usage does not imply endorsement of site contents) This fish is endangered, and museums specimens that can be studied are quite rare. After all this time and excitement, the head of one was examined by anatomists. It turns out that much of the anatomy had been wrongly understood for many years. Also, Darwin's disciples say it did not evolve fast enough. Further, all of its internal struc...

by Cowboy Bob Sorensen  Many people say that evidence for the Designer is clearly obvious in many ways, even showing his engineering and planning skills, love of beauty, and more. Even the single-celled  Stentor coeruleus  shows intricacy found in multicellular organisms. The wealthy and intelligent Elon Musk was asked about the Creator , and he said, "I believe this universe came from something. People have different labels." I do not think he simply meant that the word God  is not the same in all languages. Chromosomes, National Human Genome Research Institute (public domain) There are people who admit that the universe and life itself were designed, but they distance themselves from the Designer. Believers in microbes-to-microscopist evolution study things like chromosomes and then gleefully give the credit to evolution. While evolution is pantheistic in nature (is is an ancient religious and philosophical belief, after all), it is not a person and cannot make de...

It may be a mite baffling for some when hearing about typhoons, hurricanes, and cyclones. Are they different storms? Pretty much the same type of thing with names based on their locations. Those in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counterclockwise and those in the Southern Hemisphere rotate clockwise. What may be surprising is that these big storms have many benefits. (Indeed, lightning striking the ground is beneficial .) That is something unlikely to appear on a news broadcast because fear and destruction are good for viewership ratings. Sometimes we hear about how they form, though. Hurricane Erin, NASA Earth Observatory / Michala Garrison These monsters of destruction are actually beneficial for life on Earth. Hurricanes help the global heat balance by absorbing heat energy and redistributing it. They also replenish water supplies and rainfall, and the rotations encourage new plant growth. And much more. Secularists hand wave the benefits as products of evolution, but study on this a...
