Most science textbooks that address cosmology credit Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson with the discovery that the universe arose from a hot big bang creation event. While it is true that they were the first (1965) to detect the radiation left over from the creation event,1 they were not the [...]

In a Commentary essay, Carl Woese and Nigel Goldenfeld provide an analysis of biological thought that differs profoundly from that presented by those celebrating the Bicentenary of Darwin’s birth and, incidentally, the recently published AP Biology Standards.
“This is the story of how biology of the 20th century [...]

People value reliability. Businesses put a lot of effort into assuring customers of the reliability of their products. Consumers associate the question “Can you hear me now?” with the reliability of the Verizon network. “Still going” brings to mind long-lasting Energizer batteries. Even God communicates His reliability. He guarantees the [...]

Review by Rich Deem
In a slight departure from their usual books on a testable creation model, Hugh Ross (Reasons To Believe) takes on the big “why” questions about the universe and why God created in [...]

New Work Takes Scientists One Step Closer to Creating Life in the Lab
An elephant float takes two scoops of ice cream. And once the elephant is floating in root beer, the only way to consume the beast is one bite at a time.
This is the same approach that Craig Venter [...]

The problem of consciousness is one that materialism hasn’t been able to solve. The most popular explanation is Epiphenomenalism — that consciousness is just a by-product of the physical activity of our brains. It has no causal efficacy in and of itself. This seems to be a problem when we consider [...]

Habitable zones support an important line of evidence for the supernatural design of life-friendly planets. Two such locations include the water and the ultraviolet radiation habitable zones. A planet must be neither too distant from, nor too near, its star; otherwise water will not exist in all three states (frozen, liquid, [...]

The common assumption that science contradicts religion can be illustrated either from your own personal experience, if this is relevant, or by quoting the words of atheistic scientists, philosophers or journalists. Richard Dawkins, for example, has described the idea of God as “a very naïve, childish concept”, and similar comments [...]

More than once, scientists and philosophers have noted how mathematics can describe, with remarkable precision, the laws that govern our universe. An example of this is found in the article The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Eugene Wigner. (See also a discussion [...]

The year 1995 marked the first time astronomers discovered an extrasolar planet.1 It was found orbiting the star 51 Pegasi. Today, scientists know of more than 350 planets residing outside the solar system. Although this sample is not huge, it is large enough that astronomers can compare detailed simulations of [...]
