• Anisotropy Synchrony Convention

  This week’s feedback addresses the solution to the distant starlight problem by astronomer Dr Jason Lisle of ICR (of AiG at the time of writing—Ed.), the Anisotropy Synchrony Convention (ASC). CMI’s Dr Jonathan Sarfati, responds. Dale H. from the United States … Continue reading →

  

• The Speed of Light Revisited

  In the December 2011 issue of Acts & Facts, I reported that recent experiments in Europe showed that neutrinos can travel faster than the speed of light.1 The OPERA (Oscillation Project with Emulsion tRacking Apparatus) researchers at CERN (European Centre for Nuclear … Continue reading →

  

• What Will the Next Biological Breakthrough Be?

  Physicists have spent enormous amounts of time and billions of dollars building supercolliders to search for fundamental particles, including the European Large Hadron Collider, which is designed to find the elusive Higgs boson.1,2 A recent article in Nature asked what kinds of discoveries … Continue reading →

  

• Ancient Raindrops Argue for Young Earth

  What was the earth’s atmosphere like when ancient rocks were forming? Was it cold and thin because the sun was supposedly dimmer back then? Researcher Sanjoy Som tried to answer these questions by analyzing tiny craters in South Africa that … Continue reading →

  

• Entropy at Work: Skeptic Blunders on Thermodynamics

  This feedback features a skeptic who can’t seem to get basic definitions in Thermodynamics right, and yet accuses us of failing to study the topics we write about. Ph.D. physical chemist and CMI scientist Dr Jonathan Sarfati sets the record straight. Garth … Continue reading →

  

• What is the Meaning of Dropstones in the Rock Record?

  by Michael J. Oard Dropstones are rocks whose diameter is larger (outsized) than the thickness of the sediment beds within which they are found. Sometimes large ‘rocks’ within fine-grained, massive sediments are considered dropstones. Dropstones have commonly been interpreted as being … Continue reading →

  

• Is the Large Hadron Collider a Big Bang Machine?

  by Branyon May, Ph.D. [Editor’s Note: The following article was written by A.P. scientist Dr. May who holds a B.S. degree in Physics from Angelo State University, as well as M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Astrophysics from the University of … Continue reading →

  

• Life’s Irreducible Structure—Part 1: Autopoiesis

  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 →

  

• Miley Cyrus Tells Her Teenage Fans to “Forget Jesus”

  I wouldn’t pay much attention to Miley Cyrus except she influences a lot of young girls. I don’t understand what these girls’ parents are thinking letting them dress like street walkers and watch this once innocent young lass morally disintegrate … Continue reading →

  

• Once Upon a Time in a Galaxy Right Here…

  One of the things I love about evolution is how so many people claim it to be fact and proven by all of the evidence around us. First of all, the evidence doesn’t prove evolution or creation, it’s just evidence.  … Continue reading →

  

• What Causes a Galaxy’s Magnetism?

  Secular astronomers are no closer to understanding what could cause galactic magnetic fields than they were when they first detected the fields over a century ago. And although the most recent map of the Milky Way’s magnetic field shows unprecedented … Continue reading →

  

• Were the Days Really Days?

  Evolution has become so popular in today’s world that even many religious people, including some members of the church, have accepted the teachings of Genesis 1 as “partial” truth. A loose interpretation allows them to “straddle the fence,” hanging onto … Continue reading →

  

• More Space Travel Problems: G-Forces

  In a previous article, we showed that interstellar travel had intractable energy problems, simply in achieving the needed high speeds, and the huge impact energies at these speeds.1 And as will be shown, there are other problems, involving what are popularly called … Continue reading →

  

• How Could Light Have Traveled Millions Of Years?

  One of the most common questions thrown at creationists is to ask them to explain how light could have traveled millions of years across the universe, if the universe is only 6,000 years old. Such a question actually contains its … Continue reading →

  

• Is DNA Coded Information?

  J.P. from the UK writes in response to Inheritance of biological information—part II: redefining the ‘information challenge’:   The semiotic triad. In genetics, the amino acid is the object that is symbolically represented by the codon, which the cell interprets via … Continue reading →
