Latest Test to Physical Constants Affirms Biblical Claim
The God of one—and only one—of the world’s holy books declares, “I have…established …the fixed laws of heaven and earth.”
At the time these words were … more
Testing the Biblical Claim of Constant Physics
In Jeremiah 33:25, God declares, “I have established…the fixed laws of heaven and earth.” This is just one of several Scripture passages demonstrating that for thousands of years … more
Only in the Movies: The Harsh Realities of Deep Space Travel
Ever since the original USS Enterprise first zoomed across television screens at warp speed in 1966, Gene Roddenberry’s space fantasy, Star Trek, has captivated people’s imaginations. … more
The Metaphysics of Quantum Mechanics
Quantum mechanics is the science of the small, typically describing phenomena that occur at the atomic level. Throughout the history of science, it has been interested in describing the nature of … more
Better Clocks, Constants Still Constant
One biblical message Reasons To Believe consistently echoes is the mandate to weed out false ideas by testing everything. Jeremiah 33:25 makes a testable statement about the laws which govern heaven … more
Testing Cosmic Creation Models, Part 2
In my previous contribution to Today’s New Reason To Believe I described how Bayesian statistical analysis by two Polish researchers on the latest measurements defining the history of the … more
Testing Cosmic Creation Models, Part 1
At two different outreach events this past month I met both atheists and young-earth creationists who expressed skepticism concerning the evidence I presented for the biblically predicted big bang … more
Most Accurate Distances Shore Up Creation History
Opponents of big bang cosmology, both atheists and young-earth creationists, frequently attempt to push aside very compelling and overwhelming physical evidence in favor of this biblically predicted … more
White Dwarfs Deliver Better Creation History
A window that enables astronomers to rigorously test the biblically predicted big bang creation model. 1Thanks to a new set of measurements on burnt out stars—known as white dwarfs—that … more
Geometric Distance to M81 Buttresses the Distance Ladder Foundation for Cosmic Creation
Yet, six Bible authors described this expansion in great detail over two thousand years ago.1For centuries, the Bible stood alone as the only text making such claims about the universe. Consequently, … more
Primordial Helium Abundance Test of Big Bang Cosmology
Until the twentieth century the Bible was the only “text” explicitly describing the fundamentals of big bang cosmology—a Causal Agent beyond space and time, a beginning of space and … more
Black Holes Constrain Fundamental Constant Variation
Jeremiah 33:25 describes a cosmos governed by an unchanging set of physical laws. In fact, this constancy provides the basis for the Israelites’ confidence in God’s trustworthiness. While … more
Black Holes Provide More Evidence for Strings
The significance of string theory is that if it or some other multi-space-dimensional theory of physics accurately describes physical reality, then religions that insist on a doctrinal construct of … more
Where Is the Cosmic Density Fine-Tuning?
This word picture helps to demonstrate a number used to quantify that fine-tuning, namely 1 part in 1060. Compared to the total mass of the observable universe, 1 part in 1060 works out to about a … more
Beginning and End of Cosmology
Study of the brightest galaxies in the universe persuaded astronomers that 99 percent of the matter in the universe was dark. And measurements of the brightest stars convinced astronomers that three … more
Extending the Reach of Cosmic Creation Measures
Continual cosmic expansion under fixed physical laws from an actual beginning of matter, energy, space, and time is the heart and soul of the biblical cosmic creation model. Moreover, the physical … more
Gravitational Lens Measurements Yield New Cosmic Creation Test
For over two thousand years the Bible stood alone as the only text making such claims about the universe. Not until Albert Einstein produced his theory of general relativity in 1916 did scientists … more
Multifaceted Design of the Strong Nuclear Force
There is a just-right separation distance between them to foster the best possible chemistry. Put them either too close or too far apart and their capacity to interact with one another will sharply … more
Deeper Probe of Fundamental Constants
TNRTB Archive - Retained for reference information
Two astronomers at the University of Illinois have developed a technique to test the constancy of the laws of physics, a feature that RTB’s … more
