• Duane Gish: Celebrating a Creation Champion

  The creation science movement has lost a stalwart champion. Dr. Duane Gish, longtime defender of creation truth, went home to be with his Savior on March 6, 2013. A memorial service was held for Dr. Gish on April 6 at … Continue reading →

  

• Marketing Myostatin Inhibitors with Fake Science

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. Body builders and other athletes use nutritional supplements to increasingly exploit the muscular mass-building benefits of reducing the levels of a protein in the body called “myostatin.” While these products may be helpful and effective, the … Continue reading →

  

• Long Complex Gene Tails Defy Evolution

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. If the picture of complexity regarding how genes are controlled and regulated in the genome was not complicated enough, a new study has increased this paradigm to an unprecedented level.1 Recently reported research describes massively long gene … Continue reading →

  

• Stephen Hawking on the Universe and Laws of Physics

  “The universe and the laws of physics seem to have been specifically designed for us.  If any one of about 40 physical qualities had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist: Either atoms would … Continue reading →

  

• How Intricate Patterns Grow in Flowers, Feathers

  By David Coppedge How does a growing flower bud or feather follicle know where to put the intricate colors and patterns on a mature flower or feather?  Scientists are beginning to get partial answers. Flower art:  Imagine you’re a flower … Continue reading →

  

• Secrets of Three Amazing Animals Unveiled

  By David Coppedge Here are accounts of three very different animals whose behaviors have baffled scientists till now.  Scientists are beginning to get at least partial answers for scientific mysteries by carefully observing and testing to see how things work. … Continue reading →

  

• How Similar Are Human and Ape Genes?

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. In the past, evolutionists have tried to prove human evolution by comparing only similar DNA segments between humans and apes—disregarding the non-similar DNA regions.1 Many evolutionary studies have involved the selective use of protein-coding segments in the … Continue reading →

  

• How Can You Punish an Evolved Criminal?

  By David Coppedge Left-leaning scientists have never given up on the 19th century notion that criminals are born, not made.  Other evidence suggests “innate tendencies” can be overcome. PhysOrg says, “Evil gene would make punishment a tricky business.”  But is there … Continue reading →

  

• Latest Attempt to Explain Homochirality Underscores the Problem

  By David Coppedge Finding that some stars emit circularly polarized light will not help explain why life uses only left-handed amino acids. Periodically, another attempt is made to explain the one-handedness of life’s amino acids.  The problem for materialists, explained … Continue reading →

  

• Biomimetics Roundup

  By David Coppedge Here’s a quick rundown of news on new technologies emerging from the study of plants, animals, and cells. Toxin sponges:  PhysOrg reported on “biomimetic nanospongers” made of absorbent material wrapped in red blood cell membranes that can drift in … Continue reading →

  

• What’s New in the Primordial Soup?

  By David Coppedge The bubbling froth percolates with ideas about how life “emerged,” each new notion trying to outdo the last in vacuity. Feel the power:  Wham! goes the meteorite.  From this, we are told by Science Daily, life got a … Continue reading →

  

• Pseudogene Plays Important Role in Cell Cycle

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. Once again, DNA sequence that was once thought to be nothing but a genomic fossil has shown itself to be vital to human survival. In this case, if the so-called pseudogene is not functioning properly, cell … Continue reading →

  

• Have They Found the Spark That Powered the Primordial Soup?

  By R. L. David Jolly Evolutionists have a number of theories of how life originated here on Earth.  Many believe that an ancient earth cooled from a hot cosmic blob of dust and gas and that as it cooled, a … Continue reading →

  

• Embryology Gene Control Confounds Evolution

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. As they say in the real estate business, location is everything. It looks like the same working principle applies to genes and their control sequences in the genome during embryo development. And not just the gene’s … Continue reading →

  

• Intact Protein Remnants Found in Dinosaur Eggs

  By David Coppedge A new record for soft tissue in a dinosaur fossil was reported in Nature: collagen in dinosaur eggs from the early Jurassic. The Nature paper is all over the news, but not all the science reporters are mentioning the … Continue reading →

  

• Beta-Globin Pseudogene Is Functional After All

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. One of the key arguments of human evolution has now suffered the same fate as many other debunked icons of the errant paradigm of “junk DNA.” In this case, it is new research related to the … Continue reading →

  

• Freckled Trilobites Had Great Eyes

  By David Coppedge Darlings of the Cambrian Explosion, trilobites had spotted markings and sophisticated eyes.  Some have been exceptionally well preserved as fossils, down to the level of individual cells. The compound eyes of trilobites had dozens of individual lenses, … Continue reading →

  

• Circular RNAs Increase Cell Bio-Complexity

  by Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. If the regulatory picture of the genome was not complicated enough, now scientists have discovered yet one more amazing level of bio-complexity that involves a whole new class of molecules in the form of RNA hoops, … Continue reading →

  

• Evolution Is Not Just Change or Similarity

  By David Coppedge Many scientific findings get labeled with “evolution” even though neo-Darwinism has nothing to do with them. Reversible evolution:  A study on dust mites reported by Science Daily claims evolution can run backwards to previous states – a violation of … Continue reading →

  

• Scientific Organizations Promote Leftist Social Causes

  By David Coppedge What on earth does a science journal have to do with abortion or gay marriage?  Some editors and reporters are actively pushing for social revolution. In “A Pope for Today,” Nature’s editors hoped that newly-instated Pope Francis would … Continue reading →
