It’s long been a mystery why cells use one hand of two-handed molecules, like left-handed amino acids and right-handed sugars. A new proposal solves the mystery, explaining how this phenomenon called homochirality arises naturally. Wait a minute… “Life scientists unlock … Continue reading
How Can “Science” Explain Things “Science” Has Said Cannot Happen? This week we received an interesting comment and question from Norman W. It’s a point that I have been trying to make for years so I thought this was the … Continue reading
A new theme in human evolution is making the rounds. According to the story, a mistake led to the human brain, and the rest is history. Live Science headlined in bold print, “Did a Copying Mistake Build Man’s Brain?” (We assume … Continue reading
Some claim that evolution is unbiblical and unscientific. Others claim that science proves evolution. Which view is right? Four clear observations show why evolution—which asserts that fish became fishermen by nature’s provision of new biological information—is utterly unscientific. 1. Fossils … Continue reading
Over the past decade, stem cells have been a hot news item. Here are some late breaking news stories about them. How they work: Researchers in the Netherlands found a new way to culture mouse embryonic stem cells in vitro. … Continue reading
Can you imagine inflating like a water balloon every time you jumped in a swimming pool? Or what if water leaked out of your skin every time you drank a glass of water? Your skin forms an impermeable barrier to … Continue reading
Recently, the Institute for Creation Research acquired some property in Alaska that will enable its scientists to study the unique mechanisms in plants that allow them to live in extreme climates. The selection of available tree species (white spruce, alder, … Continue reading
EXCERPT In the 1970’s, geologists discovered hydrothermal vents, holes in the ocean floor that spew out scalding hot water. They subsequently learned that these seemingly inhospitable environments actually permitted the existence of primitive life forms. Some scientists believe that such conditions, … Continue reading
Many people may not realize that our bodies are home to trillions of bacteria. They cover our skin, they’re in our mouths, noses, ears, throats, blood and most of our organs. In fact, if we were to eliminate every bacteria … Continue reading
The Intelligent Design Movement is big news today, but did you know much of the scientific reasoning behind it came from a European organic chemist? William Dembski, author of several key books in the ID movement, credits Dr. A. E. Wilder-Smith for … Continue reading
Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin wanted to rebuild the Red Army, in the mid-1920s, with Planet-of-the-Apes-style troops by crossing humans with apes. This was according to a report in The Scotsman newspaper on 20 December 2005.1 The report claimed that Stalin ordered Russia’s … Continue reading
The concept of natural selection remains controversial in both the evolutionary and creationist communities. Classical evolutionists still cannot clearly define it as they continue to debate one another over a valid model and definition. Meanwhile, secular molecular biologists are content … Continue reading
This past week we had a controversial post on baptism that I’ll address more in the Feed Back. We also received a great question on artificial fertilization. Baptism and Salvation Earlier this week, one of our staff inadvertently re-posted an … Continue reading
In Part I of this article, I showed that autopoiesis (self-making) provides a compelling case for the intelligent design of life because all aspects of life lie beyond the reach of naturalistic explanation. Here in Part II the argument from … Continue reading
The commonly cited case for intelligent design appeals to: (a) the irreducible complexity of (b) some aspects of life. But complex arguments invite complex refutations (valid or otherwise), and the claim that only some aspects of life are irreducibly complex implies that others are not, and … Continue reading
