Many of the ancients believed that the Earth was a flat disk or plane, sitting on the back of a giant turtle who floated in a giant pool of water. Quite a fanciful story. It sounds like a fairy tale… But still quite a complex and detailed idea! There’s another fanciful story, a complex and … Read More

Have you ever looked back on your work, or a project that you’ve been a part of, and said “It’s finished”? Many times, we look back and think “If only I’d done this or that a little different…” Not so with our Savior on the cross. In the Greek, it tells us He exclaimed (teTEL-a-st-iy) … Read More

Genesis 1:1 tells us that “In the beginning God created the heaven and the Earth.” Genesis 1:2 goes on to tell us that “the earth was without form and void and darkness was upon the face of the deep.” Some people have suggested that there is a gap, containing eons of time, in between Genesis … Read More

In Exodus chapter 20, we’re informed that “in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day” If we take the Bible at its word, as literal truth, then God decided to stretch the creation of the Universe over a 6 day span. … Read More

Recently, while researching examples of flood geology, I heard about a particular fossilized tree in northern TN. After several weeks of trying to track it down, I was finally able to visit the site. The side of a mountain had been blasted away to uncover a coal seam, and what was discovered there was a … Read More

Let’s look at an example of simple to complex evolution in the modern day: The sequence of evolution for a Bicycle, car, and motorcycle might look something like this, if we were looking at it from an evolutionary perspective: The Bicycle evolves from a unicycle, then comes the motorcycle… then 2 wheels evolve into 4, … Read More

Not long ago, I participated in a paleontological excavation that was taking place in western Kansas. This area is known as the Niobrara Formation, and contains hundreds of thousands of fossilized fish and other aquatic creatures. Besides many fossilized clams, the team found very large fish vertebrae, and dinosaur fossils including what appeared to be … Read More

Geological folding is found all over the earth. Extreme folds and bends in the sedimentary strata, like those pictured here, are not uncommon, and many times can give us clues as to their origin. The first consideration is that many times, bends appear smooth along the fold. Take a piece of plywood. Grab it with … Read More

Look at the simple mousetrap. Designed to perform a specific function, the mousetrap is only made of a few basic components. A wooden base, a lever, a spring, a thin metal hammer, and a catch. Definitely much simpler than, say, the eardrum, or the process of photosynthesis. Then again, the function of catching a mouse … Read More

Today, botanists estimate that there are over 300 thousand species of plants, ranging from Lycopods like the tiny club moss, conifers like pine and the mighty cedar, and angiosperms like the beautiful rose or the wheat that makes a loaf of bread. It’s safe to say that we would be in big trouble without these … Read More

Also known as the ‘Dog Star’, Sirius is thought to be 8.6 light years away. It is actually a binary or double-star system, composed of the primary star, Sirius A, and the faint Sirius B beside it. Some observers refer to these two as Sirius and his pup. The hottest part of the year, known … Read More

What a stunning sight… To look up in the night sky, and see the full moon shining brightly…That’s not its own light you’re seeing. The moon can’t generate light. But its surface DOES reflect the light of the Sun – 93 million miles away. The Moon is, on average, 239,000 miles from Earth; it’s just … Read More

God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the … Read More

Most people have been taught that we as humans are nothing more than a product of evolution—-that millions of years ago, you and I were only tiny organisms swimming in a pond. Some would lead us to believe that over time, we began to hang by our tails from trees and eat ants out of … Read More

When we look at the universe in all its vastness, it is easy to think of the Earth as small, and insignificant. However, Earth has some extraordinary characteristics that enable it to survive in a universe that is – for the most part – hostile to life. The Galactic Habitable Zone is an area of … Read More
