Our Ministry Goal is Helping Your Ministry

Posted on Jul 18, 2013 in Marianis from the Front | 0 comments

  Hey guys, on our last post, we gave our introduction and testimonies. Now I want to share a little bit more. I want to share about my vision and motivation in working with AOI. For the past 10 years, I have been interested in Creation Science, but never have known how to get involved. I believe that there is a whole army of young people who see the importance of Creation and want to make a difference…yet they don’t know how. You may be one of those people that want...

How Are Fossils Formed, And What About A Fossil Hat?

Posted on Aug 1, 2012 in Stepaneks from the Front | 0 comments

How are fossils formed? We recently came across a comment about one of our blogs, Gaining Weight In The Grave, that was brought up on a blog of a prominent creationist, Jason Lisle, and we wanted to elaborate on the possibility of a felt hat fossilizing. The commenter referred to the fossilized hat being a hoax.  According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica (2003 Ultimate Reference Suite).  A fossil is formed by: “The hard parts of organisms that become buried in...

A Visit To The Chicago Field Museum

Posted on May 11, 2011 in Stepaneks from the Front | 0 comments

Visiting the Chicago Field Museum was an interesting experience.  It was a busy area with many school groups taking tours. Our very first exposure was to the exhibit entitled, “The Evolving Planet.”  It was heartbreaking to hear the guides explaining to the children how the atmosphere was so toxic in the beginning that no life could possibly exist.   It made me realize again just what a battle we are in, and how sad it is.   These young innocent lives were being...

National Park Ranger Led Hikes and Philosophy

Posted on Apr 12, 2011 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

It is always a good experience for the students, on our 12 day field trip, to hear how the various philosophies are presented at the national parks. The pictures in this blog were all taken at Arches National Park.  Because of our larger group, we had two ranger led hikes in Arches by two different rangers. The first ranger was quite knowledgeable in geology and did a very good job in explaining the normal park perspective for the formations (which involves millions or even...

Rifkin and Today’s Genetic Engineering

Posted on Mar 17, 2011 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

Mary Jo and I have had the privilege and pleasure of staying with Dave Harper and his wife, Barb, while teaching in Pinedale, WY. We always enjoy being with them, both because of their great hospitality and the stimulating conversation. Dave, currently the President of our Board of Directors, reminded me this morning of a quotation, originally written in 1983, which I had read years ago. With today’s push toward genetic engineering, I think we should be aware of the...

Tsunami

Posted on Mar 16, 2011 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

It’s hard to describe the emotions felt while watching tsunami waves engulfing Japan in real time. Viewing the before and after images gives a glimpse of the destruction. And yet the loss and human suffering is unimaginable. Our hearts go out to those who have lost loved ones, friends, farms, businesses, personal belongings – and their sense of order and security in life. The trauma they have faced, and are continuing to face, seems overwhelming. Oh, that they would turn to...

Junk DNA and Creationist Predictions

Posted on Mar 11, 2011 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

As much as 98% of the DNA molecule has been labeled “junk.” It was thought to have no function and thus, that mutations could accumulate there without being “weeded out” by natural selection. However, research is rapidly showing functionality for the so-called “junk DNA.” Even Francis Collins, long-term DNA researcher who just a few years ago thought that non-coding areas of DNA were non-functional, is now recognizing complex functions taking place in the areas previously...

Hummingbird Spy Planes

Posted on Mar 2, 2011 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

I thoroughly enjoy hummingbirds and dragonflies. They are certainly marvels of creation. However, there may come a time when people will start shooting them. The Associated Press (2/28/2011) just had an article about new research with working models of tiny spy planes that mimic birds and insects. The hummingbird “drone” can fly forward and backwards, up and down, sideways, and rotate. However, unlike the real thing, it is loaded with video and audio equipment to record...

Created by Nothing

Posted on Jan 20, 2011 in Stepaneks from the Front | 0 comments

I am writing a news article on the origin of everything, and wanted to blog on a couple of thoughts.  There are basically two ideas about how everything came to be.  One is that an intelligent “being” created all things.  As a Christian who believes the Bible is true, I say this intelligent “being” is none other than the eternal living God of the Bible,  Who has the power to do all things.  The second idea is that an eternal nothing created all things.  However, this idea...

Evolution and Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer!

Posted on Dec 30, 2010 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

I just received a call from a friend of mine who had watched a Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer Christmas/New Year’s program on television. They must have worked really hard to weave it into the story, but sure enough, they managed to squeeze evolution into it! They went back through “Father Time” to the first “Father Time” “millions of years ago.” Of course, in keeping with the true spirit of evolution, “Father Time” back then was a hunched over half-man/half-ape caveman....

When Snakes Fly

Posted on Dec 2, 2010 in Stepaneks from the Front | 0 comments

You have all probably heard the statement “when pigs fly”, but have you heard “when snakes fly”?  That’s right, snakes can fly, well, they actually glide.  Scientists have discovered a strange species of snakes located in Southeast Asia, India, and southern China that can glide.  You have heard children say, ‘Look mom, no hands’.  Well these snakes have neither wings, nor wing like appendages, to help them glide.  How do the snakes do this?  The...

African Mosquito is fulfilling God’s mandate

Posted on Nov 18, 2010 in Stepaneks from the Front | 0 comments

The African Mosquito is fulfilling God’s mandate to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.  The African Mosquito, which transmits most of the malaria in sub-Saharan Africa is adapting to a different habitat.  One variation (the M type) is adapted to where there is a more permanent supply of water, and now another variation (the S type) is adapting to short-lived bits of water. Is that evolution? No. The two varieties are physically indistinguishable from each other...
