• Little Ice Age, Volcanoes, Global Warming, Genesis Flood and THE Ice Age

  Climatologists have identified a period of nearly 500 years where a significant part of the Northern Hemisphere experienced colder than normal temperatures.  The period known as the Little Ice Age started around 1275 and ended in the 1800’s. They determined … Continue reading →

  

• A Possible Creationist Perspective on the Tyrolean (Oetztaler) Ice Man

  Abstract Much attention has been given to the Tyrolean Ice Man since his discovery in 1991. To the evolutionist he is somewhat of an enigma; a resourceful and cultured individual from an area previously thought to be a Neolithic backwater. … Continue reading →

  

• Best Cave Art Is Still the Oldest

  A new research study confirms that the exquisite cave art at Chauvet Cave is the oldest. The study is documented in an open-access paper on PNAS (May 7, 2012, doi: 10.1073/pnas.1118593109 PNAS May 7, 2012).   The abstract begins, Since its discovery, the Chauvet cave … Continue reading →

  

• The ‘Hong Kong Ark’ Fiasco

  Background In April 2010 it was announced at a press conference in Hong Kong (and later that month a similar one in Amsterdam) that a team of explorers from that city had discovered what was clearly being claimed to be … Continue reading →

  

• Evidence for Design Demands Radical Evolution Rewrite

  Paleobiologist Simon Conway Morris, of Burgess Shale fame, says that examination of the fossil evidence demands a radical rewriting of evolution. Why so? In an interview with the University of Cambridge’s alumni magazine (Issue 65, Lent 2012, pp. 32–35) Conway … Continue reading →

  

• Do Habitats Create Creatures?

  Russian scientists announced the discovery of the world’s oldest fossil worm burrows in Ediacaran rocks, even though very few fossils are typically found below Cambrian rock layers. Do these worm burrows help answer the longstanding challenge to evolution called the … Continue reading →

  

• Where Did the Fossils Come From?

  *by Wes Moore Have you ever seen a dinosaur “fossil” at a museum? Have you ever wondered exactly what a fossil is or where it came from? That’s what I’d like to explain to you in this article. What is … Continue reading →

  

• A Receding Flood Scenario for the Origin of the Grand Canyon

  Many creationist geologists have proposed that the Grand Canyon (GC) was formed by a catastrophic dam-breach event. This would have released large quantities of water from impounded lakes east of the canyon that had remained on the plateau after the … Continue reading →

  

• Earth Myths with a Sprinkling of Data

  Some recent articles show that tiny bits of data can be used to generate whoppers. According to Live Science, Bill Hammond has been measuring uplift of the Sierra Nevada range since 2000.  Currently they have measured about a millimeter or two … Continue reading →

  

• Planetary Radiometric Dates 1/3 Younger

  The half-lives of radioactive isotopes may not be as well-known as thought.  One decay rate frequently used to date solar system objects had to be adjusted down to 66% of its former assumed value, impacting theories of planet formation. PhysOrg headlined, … Continue reading →

  

• Flat Gaps Between Strata

  When geologists make field observations, they typically focus on the rock before them and its color, density, mineral makeup, fossil content, and other features. But they often would be well-served by looking at the strata’s context as well. Numerous examinations … Continue reading →

  

• Tracking Those Incredible Hypercanes

  The world immediately after the Genesis Flood was considerably different than it is today. The crust of the earth ripped apart, continents moved around, hot magma spewed into the ocean, water inundated the entire globe, sediment was deposited over most … Continue reading →

  

• Planet Theories vs. the Evidence

  Planet theorists are putting up a valiant fight against new findings, but in some cases, the evidence seems to be winning. Moon.  “New research provokes more questions about the origin of the moon,” blazes a headline on PhysOrg from last month.  For … Continue reading →

  

• Of Missing Gaps and Magic Bullets

  Does the Bible teach any sort of a ‘gap’ of millions/billions of years in the first few verses of Genesis? Is there such a thing as a universal ‘knock down’ argument against evolution? Dr Carl Wieland answers these questions and more in … Continue reading →

  

• A Conversation Arising

  The visiting CMI–US speaker did not mention radiometric ‘dating’ in his presentation to an Aussie church. So guess what two members of the congregation discussed afterwards … It’s great to have CMI–US speakers Gary Bates and Dr Jonathan Sarfati back in Australia at present. … Continue reading →
