Today’s Answers in Genesis daily article by Gary Vaterlaus is about the apparent contradiction in the BIble concerning snakes eating dust. While I agree with AiG’s answer to this issue, there are other points made in the article which are questionable. To read the Answers In Creation rebuttal to this article, click here.

In a daily article from Answers in Genesis, Bodie Hodge asks the question of the age of the earth. This article attempts to present evidence from the genealogies in the the Bible, and then it attempts to tear down old earth dating methods. It is not effective in either.

What is beneath the cross? Andrew Snelling of Answers in Genesis answers this correctly, in that there are layers of sedimentary rock containing many fossils. Whereas he sees this as proof of a global flood, the scientific evidence says otherwise. Click here to read this article.

One of the claims by Creation Science Evangelism is that a fossil mammoth site in Waco, Texas provides proof of a global flood. When you examine the issue, it is clear that it could not have been caused by a worldwide flood as they presume. To read the article, click here.

As is typical of Creation Science Evangelism, they use humor, instead of science, to mislead their readers. When they do use science, they use it incorrectly, or omit vital facts that would discredit their beliefs. The article “Chickenosaurus” from their website is an excellent example of how they mislead their readers. To read the rebuttal [...] [...more]

Does a fossil of a normally tropical turtle, found in the Arctic, damage the case for an old earth? YEC author Brian Thomas of the Institute for Creation Research thinks so.

The third rebuttal in the series of Answers Magazine’s six-part flood evidences deals with rock layers that stretch across continents. No new information is presented, as this is merely a rehash of old YEC claims. The rebuttal can be read here.

The title of the article was High & Dry Sea Creatures, and it was the first of a six part series of flood evidences. The rebuttal can be found here. The article claims that finding fossils high on mountaintops is proof of a global worldwide flood. However, there is no scientific proof that the claims by the young earth author, Andrew Snelling, are true.

As many of you know, Answers in Genesis split two years ago, with the US ministry under Ken Ham essentially casting off the parts of the ministry that stood in his way (he did not want oversight from anyone). CMI recently posted an article about their new operating practices which is a clear attempt at preventing any such split in the future. I’ve posted a commentary on this split here.

Answers Magazine published an article by YEC Paul Taylor which tries to discredit the theory that the dinosaur extinction was caused by a meteorite impact. The article contains three problems with the theory, all of which fail to provide any proof against the impact theory. To the contrary, when you do the math, a meteorite impact makes much more sense than his theory that the iridium in the K-T Boundary came from volcanoes. You can read my rebuttal here.

I’ve just posted a response to an ICR argument concerning Precambrian fossil footprints, which ICR uses to discredit evolution. When treated fairly and without emotion (which so many young earth arguments use), it does not discredit evolution at all…it merely makes it clearer. For progressive creationists, there is no issue either, as it only means [...] [...more]

When treated fairly and without emotion (which so many young earth arguments use), it does not discredit evolution at all…it merely makes it clearer. For progressive creationists, there is no issue either, as it only means an adjustment in the timeline of the creation of the organisms that made the prints.
