• Scientists Broom Challenging Discoveries Beneath ‘Contamination’ Rug

  by Brian Thomas, M.S. Recent years have witnessed many revolutionary discoveries of original tissues in fossils. Each new find challenges the widely held notion that fossils formed millions of years ago. After all, lab tests repeatedly show proteins and other … Continue reading →

  

• Gladiator—an ‘extinct’ insect is found alive

  by David Catchpoole Extraordinarily, insects earlier thought to have been extinct for millions of years have been found thriving on a stony mountain top in Namibia.1,2 Nicknamed ‘Gladiators’ because of their ‘fearsome’ appearance and the armour that covers them as nymphs, … Continue reading →

Clarey, Ph.D., and Jeffrey Tomkins, Ph.D. A recent report, published in Nature,1 on the genome sequence of the so-called living fish fossil, the African coelacanth, has some evolutionists scrambling to defend their story. This is because the coelacanth’s DNA is similar … Continue reading →

  

• Dinosaurs Swimming out of Necessity

  by Timothy L. Clarey, Ph.D. What’s so fascinating about dinosaur tracks? Maybe it’s because their many mysteries beg for solutions. For instance, because tracks in mud are so short-lived today, how did dinosaur tracks ever preserve in the first place? … Continue reading →

  

• Coelacanth: Making the Most of an Unevolved Fish

  The coelacanth genome has been sequenced.  Does it show evidence for evolution?  Only to those with a good imagination. The genome was published in Nature this week.  Science Now put the problem with coelacanth into perspective: The coelacanth isn’t called a “living fossil” for nothing. The … Continue reading →
