Why Have Alligators Not Evolved?

Why Have Alligators Not Evolved?

These creatures were smaller and more adapted to their swampy habitats.” (Evolution of Modern Alligators). This is the standard teaching of mainstream science today. But what are the actual facts?   “The fossil record does support the evolution of reptiles, although it may not provide a complete and unbroken chain of transitional fossils for all reptile lineages.”—AI search   The Bible reports that, “God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moved about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind, and God saw that it was good” (Genesis 1:21 NIV). God created all the creatures that make their home in the water, “according to their kinds”, that is, there are barriers as reproduction, or cross-breeding. 

“Alligators are often called “living fossils”, relatively untouched by major evolutionary changes for at least eight million years, with remarkably similar ancestors already hunting swamps alongside the dinosaurs. Yet, beginning in the 1850s, the arrival of rifle-wielding European settlers into the wetlands of Florida and Louisiana drove this evolutionary line to the verge of extinction.”-—How Alligators Are Breathing Life Into Florida’s Everglades, BBC Earth, April 19, 2025 read more

Did The Brain Evolve, or Was It Created?

Did The Brain Evolve, or Was It Created?

 

Did the brain evolve, or was it created? 

“The human brain is staggeringly complex and the product of millions of years of evolution”—YourGenome.org

“We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV). The ability to develop thoughts and learn has to have come from God. The brain, where thoughts are developed, is far too complex to have evolved without design. Recent discoveries continue to give evidence of this.  

“Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 million connections.
A neuron extends an axon to make contact with other neurons. A team of more than 100 scientists recorded the cellular activity and mapped the structure in a cubic millimeter of a mouse’s brain. read more

Do Not Be Deceived By Faked Embryo Drawings

Do Not Be Deceived By Faked Embryo Drawings

Since the 1860’s faked embryo drawings have been used by evolutionists to mislead many into believing that Darwinian evolutionary theory is scientifically true.

“Watch out that no one deceives you” (Matthew 24:4 NIV).

But unsuspecting people, including schoolchildren, many have been deceived by such drawings purportedly representing actual biological embryos. read more

Dinosaur Evolution – From Five Fingers To Two Fingers?

Dinosaur Evolution – From Five Fingers To Two Fingers?

Artist's impression by Masato Hattori A tall brown dinosaur stands in a forest, its ostrich-like head almost in the tree canopy, grasping trees with hands containing two very large claws and sets of orange feathers on the arms. The dense rainforest is a dark green mixture of tropical-looking hardwood trees and fern-like plants.

 This two-fingered dinosaur is said to evolved from three fingered dinosaurs, who evolved from four fingered dinosaurs, who evolved from five fingered dinosaurs.  (Artist’s impression by Masato Hattori). Did dinosaur evolution really work this way?

A BBC article was published on March 25,2025, under the title of: “Unique two-clawed dinosaur discovered”

Some excerpts from the article are, as follows:

At nearly a foot long, the claws themselves were much larger than their underlying bone, the study revealed.
Besides better grasping, the two-fingered hands may have been used for display, digging, or as formidable weapons.
The most famous two-fingered theropods are species within the group tyrannosaurids, which includes Tyrannosaurus rex, but Duonychus evolved its two-fingered hands separately from them and from other two-fingered theropods.
The specimen also preserves the first keratinous sheath of a therizinosaur, an element that covers the claw much like human fingernails, aiding defence, movement, or prey catching. read more

Could Jonah Have Been Swallowed By A Whale?

Could Jonah Have Been Swallowed By A Whale?

Humpback whale

According to the biblical narrative, Jonah was swallowed by a “great fish” (Jonah 1:17 ESV), and spent three days and three nights in its belly before being spat out, unharmed. However, skeptics have long dismissed the tale as fantastical, citing physiological impossibilities. Could Jonah have been swallowed by a whale, or a “great fish”?

A very modern event reminds us not to be too quick to dismiss Biblical accounts as fictional. The BBC reports:

‘I felt a slimy texture brush my face’: Man describes being swallowed by whale”

Andrea Díaz & Ayelén Oliva
BBC Mundo, February 14,2025

Watch: The moment kayaker Adrián Simancas is nearly gulped down by a whale
The first thing kayaker Adrián Simancas noticed after he was eaten by a whale was the slime.
“I spent a second realising I was inside the mouth of something, that maybe it had eaten me, that it could have been an orca or a sea monster,” the 23-year-old told BBC Mundo.
Adrián had started to think how he might survive inside the humpback whale “like Pinocchio” – then the creature spat him back out.
The Venezuelan kayaker had been paddling through the Strait of Magellan, off Chile’s Patagonian coast, with his father when he felt something “hit me from behind, closing in on me and sinking me”.
His father, Dell, was able to capture the short-lived ordeal on video just metres away.
“I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, I realised I was inside the whale’s mouth,” Adrián told the BBC.
“I felt a slimy texture brush my face,” he recalled, adding that all he could see was dark blue and white.
“I wondered what I could do if it had swallowed me since I could no longer fight to stop it,” he said.
“I had to think about what to do next.”
But within seconds, Adrián started to feel as though he was rising toward the surface.

“I was a little afraid of whether I would be able to hold my breath because I didn’t know how deep I was, and I felt like it took me a long time to come up.
“I went up for two seconds, and finally I got to the surface and realised that it hadn’t eaten me.”
In a nearby kayak, Adrián’s father Dell Simancas watched on in disbelief.
The pair had just crossed Eagle Bay – down the coast from Punta Arenas, Chile’s southernmost city – when he heard a crash behind him. “When I turned around, I didn’t see Adrián.”
“I was worried for a second, until I saw him coming up out of the sea,” the 49-year-old said.
“Then I saw something, a body, which I immediately interpreted as most likely being a whale because of its size.”
Dell had fixed a camera to the back of his kayak to record the rising waves – which captured his son’s remarkable experience.
Watching the footage back, Adrián – who moved with his father to Chile from Venezuela seven years ago in search of a better quality of life – was shocked to see just how enormous the whale had been.
“I hadn’t seen the moment when the back appears, and the fin is visible. I didn’t see it, I heard it. That made me nervous,” he said.
“But later, with the video, I realised that it actually appeared before me in such a huge size that perhaps if I had seen it, it would have scared me even more.”
‘Physically impossible to swallow’
For Adrián, the experience was not just about survival – but he said felt he had received a “second chance” when the whale spat him out.
The “unique” experience in one of the most extreme places on Earth had “invited me to reflect on what I could have done better up until that point, and on the ways I can take advantage of the experience and appreciate it as well”, he added.
But there is a simple reason he was able to escape the whale so quickly, according to a wildlife expert.
Humpback whales have narrow throats “about the size of a household pipe” designed for swallowing small fish and shrimp, Brazilian conservationist Roched Jacobson Seba told the BBC.
“They physically cannot swallow large objects like kayaks, tires, or even big fish like tuna,” he said.
“Ultimately, the whale spit out the kayak because it was physically impossible to swallow.”
The humpback whale likely engulfed Adrián by accident, Mr Seba suggested.
“The whale was likely feeding on a school of fish when it unintentionally scooped up the kayak along with its meal.
“When whales surface too quickly while feeding, they can accidentally hit or engulf objects in their path.”
He warned that the encounter served as “an important reminder” to avoid using paddleboards, surfboards or other silent vessels in areas where whales usually swim.
Boats used for whale watching and research must always keep their engines on, he added, as the noise helps whales detect their presence. read more

Are Scientific Discoveries Consistent With The Biblical Flood?

Are Scientific Discoveries Consistent With The Biblical Flood?

Are modern scientific discoveries consistent with the Biblical flood? Many “experts” view the Biblical flood account as a myth. The Bible records the global flood of about 4,400-5,500 years ago in Genesis chapters 6-8, when:

“For forty days the flood kept coming on the earth, and as the waters increased they lifted the ark high above the earth. The waters rose and increased greatly on the earth, and the ark floated on the surface of the water. They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than fifteen cubits. Every living thing that moved on land perished—birds, livestock, wild animals, all the creatures that swarm over the earth, and all mankind. Everything on dry land that had the breath of life in its nostrils died. Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark. The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days.”—Genesis 7:17-24 NIV read more

Facts Confirm Human Lifespan Limited To 120 Years

Facts Confirm Human Lifespan Limited To 120 Years

A 93-year-old man from Pichilemu, Chile

While there have at times been unconfirmed reports of people living longer, the facts confirm that human lifespan is limited to no more than about 120 years. About 50 years ago, for example, there was a man living in Florida, USA, named Charlie Smith, who claimed to be 130 years old. However, before the flood of Noah’s day, about 4400-5500 years ago, God announced his decision to eventually limit human lifespan to 120 years. 

“Yahweh said, ‘My spirit cannot be indefinitely responsible for human beings who are only flesh; let the time allowed for each be a hundred and twenty years.'”—Genesis 6:3 NJB read more

Discovery – “Evolution Will Have To Be Rewritten Again”

Discovery – “Evolution Will Have To Be Rewritten Again”

Based on a new discovery, human evolution will have to be rewritten again, for the umpteenth time. The theory of macro-evolution presents the idea that life gradually developed from non-life as a single-celled organism, and from this over many millions of years evolutionary changes took place and many types of creatures came into being, with the final result being that humans developed from ape-like creatures. One of these that is thought to be closest to humans are called “Neanderthals”. Theories about exactly who these Neanderthals are have undergone many changes over the last 150 years. The Bible has said all along that, “From one human being he created all races of people and made them live throughout the whole earth” (Acts 17:26 GNB).   read more

Neanderthals Were Humans – Evolutionary Theory Disturbed

Neanderthals Were Humans – Evolutionary Theory Disturbed

Neanderthals have for some time been explained and drawn as subhumans, a “cave-man” type species, if you will. Those who believed what the Bible says, for example, “God made all sorts of wild animals, livestock, and small animals, each able to produce offspring of the same kind”, “God created human beings in his own image” (Genesis 1:25,27 NLT), have often been ridiculed by those who believed that humans evolved gradually from lower animals into humans. One of these lower creatures, it was asserted, was called Neanderthals. Recent discoveries, however, have forced evolutionists to revise their theory yet again, this time admitting that Neanderthals were near enough relatives to modern day humans that they interbred with humans to the point that the so-called Neanderthal species disappeared. read more

New Study Proves “Time” Assertion of Evolutionists Is Impossible

New Study Proves “Time” Assertion of Evolutionists Is Impossible

No one disputes Micro-Evolution, that is, small changes within ‘kinds’ (Genesis 1:11,12,21,24,25), such as varieties of dogs, cats, etc. It is Macro-Evolution, that is, wholesale changes of one species into an entirely new species, that is disputed. Since such an assertion has never been observed, Evolutionists claim that over very long periods of time, perhaps millions of years, such large changes have definitely taken place. 

The Bible makes clear that “The Lord God Almighty . . . created all things” (Revelation 4:8,11). “How countless are your works, Yahweh, all of of them made so wisely!” (Psalm 104:24 NJB). Actual documented evidence proves that all creatures reproduce only “according to their kinds” (Genesis 1:21 ESV; NIV). read more
