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.
The Asilidae are the robber fly family, also called assassin flies
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?
BBC News published an article on March 8, 2017, entitled: “‘Rock star’ Archaeopteryx fossil heads for Japan.” It can be read here.
Archaeopteryx fossil from London’s Natural History Museum
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
The Universe is Expanding Rapidly, at an 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, by a “Creator” (Isaiah 42:5).read more
DNA Lets Sharks Take a Bite Out of Cancer–Evolution or Creation?
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
“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
How the Universe can expand if there is no extra space
How countless are Your works, Lord! In wisdom You have made them all; the earth is full of Your creatures. Here is the sea, vast and wide, teeming with creatures beyond number— living things both large and small. (Psalm 104:24-25)
On January 30, 2017, BBC News published an article entitled “Scientists find ‘oldest human ancestor,'” which suggests that humans evolved from other life forms.
Notice how many times conjectural words such as “thought to,” “probably,” “may,” “we think,” “suggests,” “conclude,” and “might” appear in this short article.read more
Ants have a navigation system that is more sophisticated than humans.
“Go to the ant, you lazy man! Observe its ways and become wise.” (Proverbs 6:6-8)
“Four things on earth are small, yet they are extremely wise: the ants are not a strong people, yet they store up their food in the summer.” (Proverbs 30:24-25)
A new article on the BBC News website published on January 19, 2017, entitled “Ants use Sun and memories to navigate” says:
Ants are even more impressive at navigating than we thought.read more
As the above article points out, Antartica had a rich ecosystem in the distant past, scientists have discovered. This is one of many evidences that there was a global flood.
“In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month–on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened. And rain fell on the earth forty days and forty nights”—Genesis 7:11,12 NIV
“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.” (Genesis 7:17-23 NIV)read more
Human Lifespan Limit Confirmed by Science Verifies Bible Truth
The Bible’s veracity or truth about the human lifespan is confirmed again by modern science in an article published on BBC, entitled: “Limit to human life may be 115 (ish).”
While we certainly don’t want to be dogmatic, since Genesis 6:3 could mean God was saying that he would flood the earth in 120 years from that point in time, the Bible and science and history combine to point out this recently discovered truth.
A look at the lifetimes of people in Genesis 5 tells us people were commonly living 700,800 and 900+ years prior to the flood (yes, these were literal solar years, like ours today). The demarcation point is the global flood, where God sets of new limit, saying:read more
