An “unknown ancient reptile roamed the Pyrenees mountains” according to a BBC News article published on April 20, 2017.

“The footprints of a mysterious reptile that lived about 250 million years ago have been identified in fossils from the Pyrenees mountains.”

“Footprints” have been found, now an entirely new species has been discovered? And it’s “a member of the group that gave rise to crocodiles and dinosaurs?”

All from “footprints?” read more

The first people who populated the Americas

First people in the Americas
Where did the first people in the Americas come from?

“We are getting closer to understanding who the first Americans really were,” BBC News reported in an article published on March 30, 2017, entitled “The first people who populated the Americas.”

“They probably came on foot from Siberia across the Bering Land Bridge, which existed between Alaska and Eurasia from the end of the last Ice Age until about 10,000 years ago. The area is now submerged by water.

There is still debate about when these first Americans actually arrived and where they came from. But we are now getting closer to uncovering the original narrative, and finding out who these first Americans really were.” read more

Real-life zombies that are stranger than fiction

“Real-life zombies that are stranger than fiction” is the title of an article that was published by BBC News on March 13, 2017.

The article states that “some fungi, viruses and bacteria have evolved….”

They start from this position that they had to “evolve.” They could not have been “created.” That is not a possibility, they claim.

“Perhaps the most famous fungus, Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, prompts its hosts to end their days perched under a leaf. Those that have succumbed to Ophiocordyceps australis, meanwhile, will die in the forest litter below.” read more

How Pygmy Ota Benga Ended Up in Bronx Zoo As Darwinism Dawned

How Pygmy Ota Benga Ended Up in Bronx Zoo As Darwinism Dawned

The story of Ota Benga is a sad and maddening example of the kinds of blunders that occurred at a time when the theory of Darwinism was rationalizing the evolution of humanity.

“They exchanged the truth about God for a lie.” (Romans 1:25 NIV)

On February 6, 2006, The Wall Street Journal published an article entitled: “How Pygmy Ota Benga Ended Up in Bronx Zoo As Darwinism Dawned.” A scan of the newspaper page can be viewed below:

Oldest croc eggs discovered in dinosaur nest

Oldest croc eggs discovered in dinosaur nest

The oldest croc eggs have been discovered in a dinosaur nest, according to a BBC News article published on March 9, 2017.

The article says “this new discovery from Portugal extends the knowledge of this type of egg by approximately 40 million years.” It goes on the say “the fossil record tells us that crocodiles and their relatives were much more diverse in the past.”

But notice what is also said: “They are remarkably similar to the eggs of modern crocodiles, suggesting crocodile eggs have changed little in shape in the last 150 million years.” read more

Robber Fly – Highly Adapted or Designed?

Robber Fly – Highly Adapted or Designed?

The robber fly is a powerfully built, bristly fly with a short, stout proboscis enclosing the sharp, sucking hypopharynx. The name “robber fly” reflects its notoriously aggressive predatory habits; it feeds mainly or exclusively on other insects and as a rule it waits in ambush and catches its prey in flight.

A BBC News article published on March 9, 2017, entitled “Robber fly: Hunting secrets of a tiny predator revealed,” reports that the mid-air hunting strategy of the robber fly has been revealed by an international team of scientists. read more

Archaeopteryx Fossil – Evidence of Macroevolution?

Archaeopteryx Fossil – Evidence of Macroevolution?

BBC News published an article on March 8, 2017, entitled: “‘Rock star’ Archaeopteryx fossil heads for Japan.” It can be read here.

This article shows how desperate evolutionists are to promote Darwinism. Archaeopteryx is one of their long-time icons. It is portrayed as a “missing link” between dinosaurs and modern birds. There are just a couple of problems with this. First, there is no evidence proving modern birds are descending from it. Second, its ancestors that scientists assert descended from it do not appear until millions of years after it! Unbelievable, isn’t it? read more

Universe is expanding rapidly, at ever increasing rate

Universe is expanding rapidly, at ever increasing rate

On Monday, June 21, 1999, the Tallahassee Democrat published a newspaper article entitled: “Universe is expanding rapidly, at ever increasing rate.” A scan of the article can be view below:

This discovery surprised scientists back in 1998. Being generally agnostic or atheistic, they don’t much like this. Why? Because as Stephen Hawking said, it has “religious overtones and implications.” Why? Because, as he said, the universe is confirmed to be “expanding at the critical rate.” That is, not only to continue expanding at an ever increasing rate, but at just exactly the precise rate to go on expanding forever. There is no way this could happen by accident, or without a guiding hand – in other words, a Creator. read more

DNA lets sharks take a bite out of cancer

DNA lets sharks take a bite out of cancer

Researchers are finding clues to cancer in shark genes.

USA Today published an article on January 30, 2017 entitled: “Could sharks be the key to solving human cancer?

A new study of shark DNA shows that unique evolutionary changes in immunity genes may explain how sharks’ open wounds heal so fast and why the ocean’s top predator rarely gets cancer.

But, scientist warn, simply eating shark meat or other parts won’t help humans battle cancer. In fact, eating sharks could be detrimental to human health because of high levels of mercury found in these “apex predators.” read more

Greece displays ‘7,000-year-old archaeological enigma’

Greece displays ‘7,000-year-old archaeological enigma’

“The figure was carved from granite in an era when there were no metal tools available”

BBC News posted an article on February 14, 2017 entitled: “Greece displays ‘7,000-year-old archaeological enigma.'” The article says the carved object is “7,000 years old, prior to the time that humans had developed metal tools”. Scientists have postulated that it took thousands of years of human evolution for humans to begin working with tools.

Too bad they ignore the Bible, because, instead it taking “thousands of years of human evolution for humans to begin working with tools,”  the Bible accurately reports that within the first eight generations of human existence, which was at least 5,000 years ago (or, at least 6,000 years ago according to the ages listed in the Septuagint in Genesis 5 & 11),  humans had developed metal tools. (Genesis 4:1; Gen 4:17-22 NJB) Tubal-cain, the Bible reports, “was the ancestor of all who work copper and iron.” This would demystify scientists’ “enigma.” read more
