    What is the Good News to a Secular World?

    I have recently been challenged over the question of our mandate to spread the good news to all the world, and whether some of us are active enough in meeting that mandate in our daily lives. But it occurs to me that so very little of what I have to offer anybody (from the point of view of being...

    Why the CEO of Egard Watches produced his pro-male, anti-Gillette video

    The problem of toxic feminism is bludgeoning men for the crimes of the few. In response Ilan Srulovic has produced a video celebrating the strength of men. "Bettina Arndt talks to Ilan Srulovicz about his brave decision to challenge the appalling Gillette toxic masculinity ad with his wonderful...

    The Explanatory Power and Heuristic Value of Intelligent Design

    Dr. Stephen C. MEYER, “The Explanatory Power and Heuristic Value of Intelligent Design” (May 29, 2019). Abstract: “The theory of intelligent design has been formulated as the best explanation of several classes of evidence in biology, biochemistry, physics. For example, proponents of the theory...

    Calling all Seafarers, Rig workers, Miners, Military personnel and Astronauts

    ....oh, and lets not forget the convicts both current and ex......or shift workers for that matter, because they also fall outside the 5 day on 2 day off thing. I've been at sea for 32 years and currently work in the AU offshore industry. I've spent most of my career working time on/time off on...

    The Point of Intelligent Design as a Theory

    "The theory of intelligent design holds that certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection" Stephen Meyer ID concerns the invention of biological novelties, including biogenesis as well as...

    Neurologist outlines why machines can’t think

    This article is an interesting discussion about why it is not AI that is a threat to humanity. Rather it is humanity that may use AI to destroy itself. https://mindmatters.today/2018/neurosurgeon-outlines-why-machines-cant-think/ A cornerstone of the development of artificial intelligence is the...

    Three Ways that Plants Defy Darwin’s Mechanism

    Another great article from the usual suspects: https://evolutionnews.org/2018/07/three-ways-that-plants-defy-darwins-mechanism/ Plants have no brains and limited mobility, yet they have mechanisms to thrive in place. One mechanism involves the prevention of inbreeding. The trick defies...

    "Poorly" designed eye can be used to test quantum mechanics

    According to the observations of evolutionary scientists: “The human eye is a well-tread example of how evolution can produce a clunky design.” Nathan Lents But in reality what an incredible piece of design: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-human-eye-could-help-test-quantum-mechanics/

    Peppered Hares — An Emerging Evolutionary Icon

    Here is an emerging icon of evolution: the snowshoe hare. This animal is similar to the jackrabbit, except that it turns white in winter, giving it camouflage against the snow. In milder climates, though, turning white would be a disadvantage, so its relatives remain brown in winter. One...

    Oral Cavity’s Supposedly “Lousy” Design Is a Key to Human Speech

    It’s a staple for Darwinists who compile lists of human anatomical features supposedly demonstrating “unintelligent” or “botched” design. We’re constantly told that the design of the human larynx, trachea, and oral cavity is poor because it allows for choking on food. The point is made by the...

    Beauty as Evidence for Intelligent Design

    Most people would agree that the world can be a beautiful place, that people can be incredibly kind and generous, and that there can be moments of joy, peace, or simple happiness. Those same people would probably agree that the world can be incredibly ugly, people can be vicious, and life can be...

    The Perfect Human Body?

    In this article Jonathan Wells exposes some of the misguided and simplistic thinking of Evolutionists: We all know that the human body can suffer from flaws. For most people, that doesn’t mean our bodies are accidental by-products of unguided evolution. Instead, they are designed — despite the...

    What “Was Once Thought to Be Unnecessary ‘Junk’ DNA”

    Could hardly have put it better myself. This article from David Klinghoffer serves as a reminder of the sort of dogmatic and evidence free just so stories that the Materialist crowd like to entertain in the name of thier faith: "This is about as vital and intimate a reminder as there could be...

    A Child’s Intuition of Purpose in Nature Is No Accident

    Another great article from Jonathan Wells: Young children perceive intuitively that the world is designed. In 1929, child psychologist Jean Piaget called children “artificialists” who tend to regard everything as “the product of human creation.” Piaget’s claim that young children’s minds are...

    Seeing the Nucleus in 4-D

    We know about genes and genomes, and how over six feet of DNA is crammed into a tiny nucleus within a cell. Decades of detailed research have given us the static, 3-D view of the nucleus. What’s new is the frenetic activity going on inside the nucleus as chromosomes move into position and genes...

    Groundbreaking Paper Shows Thousands of New Genes Needed for the Origin of Animals

    Someday we may get tired of being vindicated. But not yet! Günter Bechly recently discussed a new paper that confirmed Stephen Meyer’s claims in Darwin’s Doubt that arthropods appeared abruptly in the Cambrian explosion, without evolutionary precursors in the Precambrian. Another recent...

    Design in Living Things Goes Far Beyond Machines

    Seventeenth-century French philosopher René Descartes conceived of living things as complex machines, a concept now known as the “machine metaphor.” In 1998, Bruce Alberts (who was then president of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences) wrote that “the entire cell can be viewed as a factory...

    More Information Found in DNA: The Shape Code

    The inner ear is a reverse piano

    "The inner ear is a reverse piano. This insight is design science applied to biology. If you know nothing of the design of harmonic analyzers, you can’t understand how the inner ear works. There is obviously no Darwinian explanation sufficient to this astonishingly elegant system. It’s beyond...

    The implications for biological origins studies could be profound: Sweeping gene survey reveals new facets of evolution "It is more likely that—at all times in evolution—the animals alive at that point arose relatively recently." "The study's most startling result, perhaps, is that nine out of...
