Adam and EveA Burgoo of Human Origin Discoveries
Posted by Fazale ‘Fuz’ Rana, Ph.D. Three New Studies Support Biblical Account of Humanity’s Creation A Fashionable Find
By Fuz Rana Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. What about necklace beads made from seashells? A study conducted by anthropologists indicates that seashell beads were the rage near the time modern humans first appeared.1 The timing of this fashion-conscious behavior provides support for the biblical account of humanity’s origin. Are There Gaps in the Biblical Genealogies?
William Henry Green, "Primeval Chronology” The question of the possible reconciliation of the results of scientific inquiry respecting the antiquity of man and the age of the world with the Scripture chronology has been long and earnestly debated. On the one hand, scientists, deeming them irreconcilable, have been led to distrust the divine authority of the Scriptures; and, on the other hand, believers in the divine word have been led to look upon the investigations of science with an unfriendly eye, as though they were antagonistic to religious faith. CHROMOSOME STUDY STUNS EVOLUTIONISTS
By Hugh Ross, Ph.D. A new study by evolutionary biologists Robert Dorit (Yale), Hiroshi Akashi (University of Chicago), and Walter Gilbert (Harvard) flies in the face of prevailing origin-of-man scenarios. l-2 In an attempt to trace the ancestry of humans, these researchers looked for genetic differences in the Y chromosome of 38 men living in different parts of the world and having different ethnic backgrounds. Diseases Follow Human Origin and Spread
by Fazale R. Rana, Ph.D. Perception doesn’t always match reality. Such is the case when it comes to the question of human origins. Some Christians perceive that scientific advance affirms evolution and negates biblical creation. But in reality, scientists investigating humanity’s origin have made no discoveries that challenge a biblical understanding of origins. In fact, recent advances in genetics provide compelling support for that perspective. Eve's Secret to Growing Younger
by Hugh Ross and Sam Conner A new discovery about a genetic phenomenon called "heteroplasmy" revises the date for our oldest female ancestor, Eve. Previous research on mitochondrial DNA (the DNA present in organelles outside the cell's nucleus) fixed the earliest date for Eve at 150,000 years ago. Evidence That Humans Are Evolving Is Not Evidence for Human Evolution
By Dr. Fazale ("Fuz") Rana Ancient DNA Analysis Sheds Insight into the Micro-Evolutionary Origin of Lactase PersistenceIt’s hard to imagine a refrigerator (at least in the U.S.) that doesn’t have a gallon or two of milk in it. Milk is a staple in the diet of humans—young and old—around the world. Finding a Wife for Cain
Hugh Ross The question concerning possible candidates for marriage to Cain comes near the top of the most frequently ask list. It stems from the apparent problem of the first couple's having only three sons; Cain, Abel, and Seth. Cain, the firstborn, after murdering Abel was banished to a land towards the east called Nod. If we are all descended from Adam and Eve, where could Cain have found a wife? First Footwear Dates to 40,000 Years Ago

8/8/2000 The following information comes from the "Report of the Creation Study Committee" posted on PCANEWS.COM, the Web Magazine of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), dated July 6, 2000. The 92-page document, presented to the 28th General Assembly of the PCA, results from the committee’s two-year study of Genesis 1-3 and of the meaning of "day" in that creation account. New Y Chromosome Studies Continue to Support a Recent Origin and Spread of Humanity
By Fuz Rana, Ph.D. Two related studies recently reported by an international team from Stanford University, University of California at Berkeley, and Oxford University add to the growing weight of evidence supporting a recent origin of humanity that is in line with the biblical date. Science in the News: Will the Real Adam Please Stand Up?
By Hugh Ross Week by week, month by month, as various science publications cross my desk, I see article after article on new findings about early man and his origins. The italics are intended to highlight the crux of an emotionally-charged controversy: the use of the word man. Scientists Send Note Home: Source of Ancient Lice Outbreak in America Uncovered

1/23/2001 Ten Major Similarities Between Calendar-Day and Day-Age Creationists The Broken Tie that Binds
By Hugh Ross According to Genesis, the human race both before and after the Flood ignored God's direct command to spread out and fill the earth. Despite God's warnings about the seriousness of disobedience, several generations of post-Flood people refused to budge from the Mesopotamian flood plain. To get the people moving, God had to destroy the civilization of Babel. He brought such a severe disruption of communication that people finally scattered themselves over the six habitable continents. The Distinctive Human Self
By E. Stan Lennard, M.D., Sc.D. Unfortunately there is an obsession by “advanced” thinkers to discredit traditional value systems as obsolete, presumably because they had a religious base. So the challenge is to replace traditional values by an ethic based on scientific rationalism or on a more evolutionary basis. The characteristic feature of all these value systems is their materialist basis, though it may be concealed.(1) The Genesis Genealogies
by Dr. John Millam In 1650, James Ussher, the archbishop of Ireland came up with a detailed timeline for all the events in the Bible, going all the way back to the creation of man and the universe. According to Ussher’s chronology, Adam and Eve were created in the year 4,004 BC. In order to date backwards from Abraham to Adam and Eve, he made use of the genealogies given in Genesis 5 and 11. A critical assumption that he made in his interpretation was that these two genealogies were complete (that is, that they contained no gaps or missing names). Are these genealogies indeed complete as Ussher assumed? The Great Divide of Peleg's Time
By Hugh Ross In the genealogy of Noah's son Shem, we see the name Peleg and along with it a brief note that "in his time the earth was divided." I've linked this statement with the break up of the warm land bridge that permitted migration from Siberia to Alaska-eastern hemisphere to western-between 14,000 and 11,000 years ago. Why Shorter Life Spans?
By Hugh Ross None of the explanations offered in the accompanying article imply that God randomly selected the life span of early humans or that He simply reacted to natural disasters in shortening human life. Y-Chromosome Reveals Evolutionary Limits
Hugh Ross Y-chromosome studies have just answered a long-standing anthropological question: Are modern Japanese people descended from the Jomon or from the Yayoi people?1 The Jomon migrated to Japan from the Asian mainland about 12,000 to 14,000 years ago when sea levels were so low that land bridges permitted. The Yayoi arrived in ships from the Korean peninsula in about 250 B.C.
