However, a new analysis of the fossil record reveals that the observed patterns—no evolutionary change punctuated by rapid biological innovation—do not match the patterns predicted if … more

Whales present a prime example of resource management gone wrong. The past three centuries of the whaling industry have driven most whale species to near-extinction. However, in the context of the … more

At first glance this evidence seems like a point in favor of the evolutionary paradigm, but a closer look reveals otherwise. Evolutionary models prove that, of all animals, whales manifest the highest … more

It was not one of my finer moments. I was on my junior high school’s basketball team and we were headed out for an away game. As we boarded the bus, the cheerleaders handed everyone an apple as … more

The four previous articles in this series have shown that the theory of evolution is more like a creation myth than a scientific theory. A myth may be true or false, but its principle characteristic … more

The last article discussed the mythlike characteristics of abiogenesis, a key component of the theory of evolution, that says living organisms appeared spontaneously from nonliving matter. This … more

The last two articles have discussed how the theory of evolution has characteristics of a myth (which cannot be proven or disproven by the technology of the culture), and lacks characteristics of a … more

A previous article noted how the theory of evolution evinces characteristics of a myth. This article will consider how it measures up to the definition of “science.”

Differentiating a … more

Editor’s note: Today we present an article by guest scholars

The creation-evolution debate is usually framed as science v. religion: verifiable fact v. faith. But we contend that it takes at … more

Punctuated equilibrium doesn’t have a viable mechanism

This past Thanksgiving, my family and I (along with some good friends) rode down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon on mules. That night we … more

Fossil evidence reveals that evolutionary change is seldom directional.

As a parent, one of my biggest concerns is that my children have a direction for their lives. I don’t want them to waste … more

"Teaching the controversy" is controversial. Sides have been drawn.

On one side, most intelligent design (ID) proponents want students to become familiar with the evidence cited in support of … more

Where were you on September 1, 2005? Perhaps you missed the announcement of a scientific breakthrough: the influential journal Nature published the completed sequence of the chimpanzee genome.1

Did man crawl his way into existence over millions of years? Or did he leap to two feet by supernatural design? Did humans emerge from amoebas or did a Creator intend for life to possess purpose, … more

One of the complex challenges facing evolutionists can be described in simple terms. It is the problem of time. For naturalistic evolution to work, the rate of speciation (introduction of new species) … more

Evolution predicts change over time, not stasis; so researchers continue to search for an organism that shows significant evolutionary change. A recent analysis of marine creatures, however, revealed … more
