Here is one aspect of that claim: “But if materialism were true, then “thought” is just an epiphenomenon of the brain, and the results of the laws of chemistry. Thus, given their own presuppositions, materialists have not freely arrived at their conclusion that materialism is true, because their conclusion was predetermined by brain chemistry. But then, why should their brain chemistry be trusted over mine, since both obey the same infallible laws of chemistry?...

Check out this Evidence for the Earth’s Shape: “Looking across Lake Ontario to Toronto from Olcott NY, 63 km (39 miles) away, only about ⅔ of the CN Tower is visible. However, about ⅓ of the tower, as well as the much smaller buildings next to it, are hidden by the earth’s curvature. Now that we have good telescopes, we can see this more clearly. If we zoom in on a ship that has half-disappeared below the horizon, we don’t see more of the ship, but just a...
Read MorePeer-Reviewed??
“Recognition in peer-reviewed literature is not an absolute requirement to demonstrate an idea’s scientific merit.” “Darwin’s own theory of evolution was first published in a book for a general and scientific audience—his Origin of Species—not in a peer-reviewed paper. Nonetheless, ID’s peer-reviewed publication record shows that it deserves— and is receiving—serious consideration by the scientific community.” “Again, for a more complete list of peer-reviewed pro-ID...
Read MoreDo Dinos Really Matter to Faith??
“I remember at their first conference, a lady did ask a question about the science. She was concerned about her nephew who had fallen away because the Bible did not mesh with the “science.” The speaker begged her question by asking “Does it really matter what happened to the dinosaurs?” I do not understand why he gave that response. The lady who just asked that question was saying that it did matter to her nephew; and she wanted to help him. We really do have...
Read MoreEvidence against the Big Bang!
“Don’t we read, even in the daily newspapers, about many ‘observations’ that only ever seem to support the big bang? In fact, these prominent secular scientists say: ‘Even observations are now interpreted through this biased filter, judged right or wrong depending on whether or not they support the big bang. So discordant data on red shifts, lithium and helium abundances, and galaxy distribution, among other topics, are ignored or ridiculed.’” “As these big-bang opposers...
Read MoreEvolution is Not Necessary for Technology!
“An engineering curriculum includes classes like calculus, differential equations, statistics, engineering economics, physics, statics, dynamics, kinematics, thermodynamics, thermofluid mechanics, mechanics of materials, electrical circuits, operations research, dynamics of machinery, metallurgy, and chemistry. Darwinian evolution contributes nothing to technology. Darwinists will claim it is necessary in medicine. But that is an inconsistent worldview and...
Read MoreHamstringing Science!
As the philosopher Alvin Plantinga recently said: “ … if you exclude the supernatural from science, then if the world or some phenomena within it are supernaturally caused – as most of the world’s people believe – you won’t be able to reach that truth scientifically. Observing methodological naturalism thus hamstrings science by precluding science from reaching what would be an enormously important truth about the world. It might be that, just as a result of this...
Read MoreExamining the Shaky Evidence.
Since Darwin first proposed his controversial theory more than 160 years ago, the accepted age of the earth and universe (by evolutionist) has steadily risen. As each new biased dating method has come along with an older date, the new date has been rapidly accepted and the previous methods simply discarded. By hiding the “origins question” behind billions of years, the unsolvable problems of evolution are made to look more feasible in their eyes. Our media and...
Read MoreMagical Dark Matter
“Although astronomers deduced the existence of dark matter apart from the Big Bang model, this substance has become very important to secular cosmologists. They recognize the enormous problems in their theories of star and galaxy formation. Many claim dark matter is the “missing ingredient” that can somehow enable their theories to work.19 This is very convenient for theorists. Since no one knows what dark matter is—or even if it really exists—no one can demonstrate...

Read MoreA great “Science-of-the-Gaps” Example: Soft-Tissue in Dinosaur Fossils!
“How could dinosaur proteins persist over 70 million years inside dinosaur bones? That’s one of the biggest questions that secular paleontologists have faced in the last two decades. Many of them reason that some unique but undiscovered set of conditions grant proteins power to defy all odds and somehow survive unimaginable time scales. They think someone, someday, will discover the protein’s secret to survival. A new model suggests those long-sought conditions have come...
Read MoreWOW! Yale Professor says that “Darwin has failed!”
“David Gelernter, a famed Yale University professor, has publicly renounced his belief in Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution, calling it a “beautiful idea” that has been effectively disproven.” “My argument is with people who dismiss intelligent design without considering, it seems to me — it’s widely dismissed in my world of academia as some sort of theological put up job — it’s an absolutely serious scientific argument,” …Gelernter said an ideological bent has...
