It’s Déjà vu all over again
For those who have never heard a yogism before, there is a treasure trove of amusing statements that have come for the lips of possibly the greatest baseball player-manager-coach of all time, New York Yankee legend, Yogi Berra. Some of his more famous yogisms are, “It ain’t over till it’s over,” “I never said most of the things I said” and “Half the lies they tell about me aren’t true.” But, “It’s Déjà vu all over again” that I am
The Miracles of Evolutionary Preservation
If you thought that miracles were exclusively the purview of people of faith, you would be greatly mistaken. It has come to the attention of the public that dinosaur remains thought to be 70 million years old T. Rex femur contained partially fossilized bone and tissue.
The Name Game: Living Fossils
Have you ever wondered why so many extinct species of plants and animals look almost exactly like their modern-day counterparts? The textbooks are filled with examples of “living fossils.” What we find is nearly, if not completely, identical organisms remaining virtually unchanged. These fossils are supposed to be really, really, really old, but they look nearly identical to the ones that live today.
Echoes of the Jurassic
Dinosaurs are fascinating creatures not just to little ones, but to adults too. These reptilian-like critters are perfect for a child’s imaginary world. They come in all sizes and shapes, yet they are extinct. They have the added quality of being gigantic and scary. Unlike modern lions, tigers, wolves, and any other animals that are known to be dangerous and menacing, children can’t see these amazing creatures in the context of today’s reality. For children and parents alike, these creatures do
The Radiocarbon Dating Methods
Dating method tools have become quite widely used and accepted in recent years and is important to our study since it professes to supply absolute dates for events within the past 30 or 40 thousand years. This, of course, covers the apparent periods of Biblical history, as well as more recent dates, and so bears directly upon the question of the Flood and other related events.
Coal Beds and Noah’s Flood
Evolutionists believe that the material in coal beds accumulated over millions of years in quiet swamp environments like the Everglades of Florida. Evolutionary geologists often object to the creationists’ explanation of coal bed formation, so what are their arguments and what answers do we give to them?
Evidence of Humans and Population of the World
The testimony of the Flood has been preserved not only in the rocks and fossils but also in the history and traditions of the entire human race. Practically every ancient nation and tribe in the world has its own flood story, many of them amazingly similar to the biblical account.
Was There a Worldwide Flood?
In geology, scientists are divided into two groups, Uniformitarianists and Catastrophists. The word uniformitarian is derived from the assumption that uniform environmental conditions have worked together to affect the environment in predictable ways.
How Did Noah Fit all the Animals in the Ark?
This is a standard objection that critics frequently lodge against the Biblical record of the Great Flood. They like to ridicule the thought of Noah setting off on trapping expeditions to Alaska and Australia, and they especially seem to relish the thought of the insuperable difficulties encountered by Noah’s family in feeding and cleaning up after the animals during their year in the ark!
Ice Age Fossils
The Creation Studies Institute has found the Peace River to be extremely rich in Ice-age fossils. We consider the fossils discovered on our Fossil Floats as living both before, and after, the Flood of Noah. As creationists, we believe that the worldwide cataclysmic biblical Flood was responsible for most of the major geologic changes
