    Grand Canyon getting younger

    Grand Canyon Young, Carved Quickly 07/22/2002 The signs are going to have to change at Grand Canyon viewpoint displays, if new theories of its formation described on EurekAlert become the new standard. No longer will visitors be told that slow, gradual erosion over millions of years carved...

    Is the Tree of Life idea now dead?

    I have noticed that Doolittle has been saying stuff like this for some time, but now it seems he has really gone public in a big way. But not to worry: he still believes in evolution. :shut: http://creationsafaris.com/crev200701.htm#20070201a

    Do lifeforms use the internet design strategy?

    Scale free networks The evident surprise of many biologists when confronted with the unexpected nophenotype knockouts stems from, I believe, a profound lack of appreciation of non-linear effects in biochemical systems. It is ironic that standard wall charts of biochemical reactions show...

    Were the Pyramids made out of concrete?

    If the Egyptians cast, rather than quarried and cut, at least some of the massive stones in the pyramids, rediscovery of their secrets could provide economical, nonpolluting building material alternatives for third-world countries.12 Although the idea of cast stone flies in the face of...

    Why protein folding permits "small changes" but prohibits macroevolution.

    In a previous thread I "fixed up" the Dawkins "METHINKS IT IS LIKE A WEASEL" evolutionary analogy so that it agreed more closely with evolutionary theory. Dawkins had started his example and computer model with a random string of letters and showed how easy it was for random changes plus...

    Living Fossils

    I have been collecting articles on "living fossils" for some time now. A living fossil is a current form of life which existed in the past as evidenced by a fossil, but which was thought to be extinct because no fossil record of it had been found in succeeding geological layers. In the current...

    Human DNA Differences

    I just finished listening to Johnny's call-in and believe he made an excellent point which was glossed over by Bob Enyart. As I understood it, Enyart was saying that the number of differences between ancient apes and humans was too large to have been bridged by favorable mutations in the...

    Is macroevolution a form of paganism?

    Paganism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "a country dweller" or "civilian") is a term which, from a western perspective, has come to connote a broad set of spiritual or religious beliefs and practices of natural or polytheistic religions. The term can...

    Another dogma in cell biology toppled?

    So-called "silent" mutations may not be as silent as previously thought. http://www.arn.org/blogs/index.php/literature/2006/12/28/learning_to_listen_to_silent_mutations

    Nice example of evolutionary imagination.

    A "sinkhole" traps a bunch of mammals. Over time it fills in. Over more time the surroundings erode away leaving a hill. Paleontologists recover fossils from the hill, including wooly mammoths. http://www.mammothsite.com/MammothSiteGeology.html The sinkhole is dated at 26,000 years.

    Do the majority of Physicians reject Darwinism?

    I have recently seen a statement that a recent poll shows that 60% of physicians and surgeons are skeptical of Darwinism. Can this be possible? Are we being treated by a bunch of quacks? ;) Can anyone here verify or else falsify the truth of the poll claim or is this a bunch of baloney being...

    The Mystery of the "Frozen Mammoths"

    I believe that the vast majority of the water for the Flood came from the "fountains" and the "rain" came mainly from the "fountain water" that had been squirted into the upper atmosphere coming back down to Earth. See "Fountains of the Great Deep" at http://www.creationscience.com To me this...

    Famous atheist "revises" his views.

    "Einstein felt that there must be intelligence behind the integrated complexity of the physical world," he said. "If that is a sound argument, the integrated complexity of the organic world is just inordinately greater – all the creatures are complicated pieces of design. So an argument that is...

    Did cells arise naturally?

    I'm interested in hearing arguments and opinions regarding whether cells arose naturally or not. Any takers?
