Today's Creation Moment

It is less well known that Newton wrote a lot about history and theology. He accepted a biblical timescale of events. Image: Adobe Stock Images, licensed to author.

An article in the New Scientist magazine suggests that the Reformation was a spur to scientific development. In their minds, Luther was a rebel, and it was this attitude of rebellion that led to the free-thinking required for modern science to develop. Image: Adobe Stock Images, licensed to author.

Genesis is one book. That might seem pretty obvious to many of you, and yet sometimes we have given the impression that it is two books. The first book runs from chapter one through chapter eleven. The second is from chapter twelve onward. Image: Adobe Stock Images, licensed to author.

There has been a tendency among some evangelicals to worry about scientific opinion. For example, there has been a drive to reinterpret Genesis in the light of evolutionary theory, and, although that drive is decades old, it has accelerated among conservative evangelicals.

The old joke goes: “What’s gray and has a trunk? A mouse on vacation.” Of course, we know that this is really the description of the world’s favorite animal, the elephant. Image: Muhammad Mahdi Karim, GNU Free Document License 1.2.

At every stage in a supposed evolutionary process there needs to be a spontaneous production of new genetic information. Yet, the only mechanisms seen are the coding and decoding of existing information. Image: Mariana Ruiz, released to Public Domain.

Evolutionists claim “music” and “language” developed independent of each other. Did they? (Illustration: Approximate location of Broca's area highlighted in gray. PD)

According to evolution all life is related. So, are humans closer to worms or coral?

Humans work together and so do certain animals, but did you know some bacteria do too? (Photo: An iridescent biofilm on the surface of a fish tank. Courtesy of Zaereth. CC-BY-PDD 1.0)

Do you know there are sounds around us that can influence us – like music does?

You know how assumptions can lead you astray. On today’s program we’ll talk about how evolution assumption does just that! (Image: Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, academic “fair use”, , accessed 10/31/2018.)

Did you know there are actually, animal “con artists” who deceive members of their own kind? (Image: A male Northern Green Frog.) (CC0)

Did the great flood and the tower of Babel really occur or are they nothing more than stories? (Painting: Tower of Babel by Lucas van Valckenborch, 1594, Louvre Museum.) (PD)

When you have a theory as faulty was evolution, it takes a lot of “word tricks” to get people to accept it.

Scientists who reject the Bible’s account of “Creation” will not only have to explain how life got started, but also how did the Earth come into existence.

Why does King Solomon used the phrase “under the sun” so many time in the book of Ecclesiastes?

According to some evolutionary scientists, meteorites might have added just the right ingredient to the “primordial soup” to create life!

Can you imagine what it was like at the beginning of the worldwide flood? Well, we don’t have to, because the Bible tell us about it. (Image: Adobe Stock Images, licensed to author.)

Worshiping idols of wood, stone and metal was a problem back in ancient days, but it’s not a problem now in modern times . . . right?

NASA isn't thinking too clearly when it comes to searching for the evolution of life

God made animals according to their kind. We refer to these kinds as baramins – from two Hebrew words for created kind. God did not make lions, tigers, pumas, etc. He made felids – the technical word for members of the cat family, or felidae.

You may not think of plants as being intelligent on any level since it appears that they just sort of sit in the soil and grow. However, the lima bean employs an sophisticated defense strategy that not only warns surrounding lima beans of an insect attack, but also calls in defenders.

Scientists have long wondered how deep‑diving creatures such as whales, dolphins and seals can dive so deeply on one breath. It takes a great deal of energy for a seal, for example, to dive 1,200 feet deep and then return to the surface.

The Bible speaks of bird calls as songs, as most of us do. However, evolutionary theory has led some scientists to say that we are merely assigning human meanings to the calls of birds. They say that the bird calls have nothing to do with real music.

The chempedak tree is found in Malaysia. It is closely related to jackfruits in the mulberry family. The chempedak tree produces edible fruits that are about a foot long.

Words are very important, and it is very easy for miscommunication by using the wrong words.

Event that scar the lives of real people, even those who follow God’s will, is full of genuine pain. Yet, we see that God still makes beautiful things out of things that were once broken. And God makes beautiful people out of people who were broken and sinful when we repent and put our trust in Jesus Christ.

We have now got used to the idea that there are dinosaur fossils containing soft tissue. Our familiarity with such finds has begun to dull the edge of the surprising import of such finds. Whichever way you spin this, the presence of soft tissue is not consistent with evolutionary ages for the dinosaurs.

Earlier, we described the natural ability of an athlete like David Beckham and how his skill could be defined by math. When we consider great sportsmen, we must consider the link between talent and what they have done with that talent to excel in their sport.

Is David Beckham a master of differential calculus in the way he scored goals? Beckham's curling free kick will fool defenders and goal keepers, as the ball bends around them into the net. Does that mean Beckham is a master mathematician or just an extremely skilled athlete?

The purpose of an advertising billboard would be to grab the attention of the passerby – or, in today’s world, the person driving by. One way of attracting the attention of prospective customers might be to use bright colors.
