Neo-Darwinian evolution is a fairy tale for big people. I know those are fighting words, but let me tell you why I say that. The typical human evolutionary story starts like this, around five to ten million years ago, we diverged from chimps, one of our closest primate relatives, from an ape-like ancestor. One line […]
“Four Big Bangs” That Kill Atheism
In a recent conversation with an atheist, I challenged him with four major topics his worldview can’t explain. I remembered them by using Frank Pastore’s nice mental hook, the “four big bangs” that materialism can’t explain. The “Cosmological Big Bang” The “Biological Big Bang” The “Psychological Big Bang” The “Moral Big Bang” When atheists try […]
40 Trillion Reasons Evolution Is Dead
Almost 160 years ago, Charles Darwin thought life’s diversity could be explained through variation filtered by natural selection. Even though it has changed some over the years as I show later, I think the Darwinian idea is quite dead. Why do I think that? Well, I think it for many reasons, a little less than […]
Do You Love Wisdom? 5 Sources For Proper Thinking, Philosophy And Logic
During the Q&A segment at one of my university campus talks, someone challenged a point I made during my presentation. My claim was simple, from universal experience complex, meaningful and functional designs always come from minds. We can look at the world of technology, we can see how gears, motors and turbines are designed. There […]
Do Cavemen and Dinosaurs Fit into the Bible? God, The Universe and Dinosaurs (Part 1)
How do cavemen, dinosaurs and similar extinct creatures fit into the Bible? While some people may think they don’t and while the Bible does not say “cavemen” and “dinosaurs” specifically, I don’t think this means that they are incompatible either. Why would we expect the Bible to talk about everything that exists or existed? As […]
Science and The Miracle of Jesus’ Birth
The familiarity, I think, makes us a little blind to the radical and bombastic account. The ancient text, “The Gospel According to Matthew”, claims that a virgin, named Mary, supernaturally conceived a baby who was to be named Jesus (Matthew 1:18-25). Supposedly, this all happened before she was married to her fiancé: she was “found […]
The Bible Got Biology Right [Podcast]
In a talk I give titled “God Got Science Right In The Bible“, I present a number of topics where the Bible was way ahead of its time. In this show, I note some of those areas that modern science affirms, such as our chemical nature, the information nature of biology and our health. Enjoy! […]
Why ‘Darwin’ Looks Silly Trying To Explain Away Living Fossils!
Two funny looking trees grow in my yard, they are called Ginkgo trees. What makes them quite peculiar is that they are called “living fossils”. A living fossil is an organism that once was thought to be only found in the fossil record, or in other words, scientists thought they were extinct. However, after much […]
Three Reasons To Never Say “Evolution Is Just A Theory, But Not A Fact”
While surfing radio channels awhile back, I happened upon a host of a Catholic show who was addressing evolution and Catholicism. My science background and apologetic interests made me listen closer. Her view was interesting, however, I was disappointed in a common line she used. She, like Catholicism in general, does not take a hard […]
Why Science Confirms The Creator – Part 3 [Podcast]
Nature is packed with designs that are so well made, we copy them (bioinspiration). In addition, some designs we found in nature after we came up with technology that looks mighty similar (which is what I call biosimilarity). This third show, in a series of three casts, talks about the best source for these designs. […]
