EVOLUTION: A black and white issue?

EVOLUTION: A black and white issue?

Back during Barack Obama’s campaign, I noted in a cartoon the amazing similarity of Michelle Obama to the Geico cavemen. Having a rather caveman-shaped forehead myself, I felt this was fair game and a funny way to work in yet another dig on Chairman Maobama. But I’ve been thinking–primarily about the cartoons I could have [...]

Intelligent Design/Evolution Debate: Conclusion

Here is the final installment of the ID/Evo debate.

Intelligent Design/Evolution Debate: Part VII

This segment is particularly entertaining as Evo critic Dr. Berlinski questions Evo proponent Dr. Miller on the number of changes necessary to take a dog to a whale. Miller accedes to as few as ten changes in the “test” cases for speciation, to which Berlinski responds by pointing out that the “test” cases were species [...]

Intelligent Design/Evolution Debate: Part VI

More in the continuing saga of those debating design vs. naturalism.

Intelligent Design/Evolution Debate: Part V

I should’ve titled this series, Intelligent Design vs. Intelligent Design given the theistic evolution mindset of the “naturalistic” evolutionist team. It’s still good viewing, with the evolutionists totally immersed in all things theological and the ID people trying desperately to keep the subject on critiquing the science. So far the best the evolutionist team could [...]

Glenn Beck interviews Ben Stein

One of the striking things about this clip is the footage from the Expelled movie showing Richard Dawkins making a plea for Intelligent Design. When you get done checking out the video, take a gander at Ron McClure Jr.’s post which underscores Dawkins’ preternatural ability to show the world what a reptilian ass looks like…macroevolution [...]

Hickory-Dickery Dawkins

The Deconstruction of an Urban Legend Writer’s note: (Italics should be read like a parent to a child, with a lot of enthusiasm and dynamics.) Once upon a time, there was a Great Zoologist from Great Britain. It is said that he could deflate an argument with a single syllable. In fact, he is said [...]

More tilting at mammoths

More tilting at mammoths

Recent find shows more assumptions than certitude MSNBC via Reuters reveals that the remains of yet another baby mammoth are being studied in Russia. So far they have done the typical medical scans that scientists do for ancient creatures/humans in order to better understand the inner organs of the animal. They are also decoding its [...]

The Case for a Creator: Part II

The Case for a Creator: Part II

Editor’s Note: Lance Ponder continues his series summarizing Lee Strobel’s book, The Case for a Creator. Refuting homologous embryos from different species First Problem: In the 1860’s Ernst Haeckel’s studied the embryos of various species in the animal kingdom. After observing these embryos, Haeckel rendered drawings, which depicted embryos of a fish, a salamander, a [...]

Evolution in space: hopeful philosophy and pipe dreams?

Evolution in space: hopeful philosophy and pipe dreams?

There is a trend in evolutionary thinking to push the origin of life into space. It’s an idea which is becoming more and more popular. Evolutionists believe that the early atmosphere of the earth was made up of a “soup” of chemicals-a “bath”-that would be toxic to us, but in their eyes would be necessary [...]
