For a number of years I have subscribed to Acts and Facts, a publication of the Institute for Creation Research. Each issue is flush with fascinating articles about the studies and discoveries of this excellent institute. Contrary to the sterotypes of pro-evolutionists, these are not a bunch of quacks who are trying to bend truth to fit the Bible. They are real scientists with real credentials. However, the bias the scholarly, where politically correct and published academics vote to support each other's research while scoffing at everyone else's, has caused these brave scientists to be portrayed ludicrously.
The current issue, which arrived yesterday describes the following interesting projects now underway:
- Recent advancments in the field of radiometric dating have demonstrated that the rate of decay of certain isotopes was much faster in the past. This explains why many radiometric age estimates of certain rocks are vastly inflated from the true age. It also means that radiometric dating cannot be used legitimately as an argument against the biblical timescale.
- Advancements in technology have provided much more data about the universe than we currently have theories to explain. Dr. Jason Lisle, who is working on the Anisotropic Synchrony Convention cosmological model, says it's as though "the universe were screaming for a creation-based interpretation of the new data."
- Dr. Jake Hebert is using fossil data to address questions such as "Why did people live so long before the Flood?" and "What do we really know about extinct organisms?"
- Dr. Jeff Tomkins has demonstrated that he DNA of humans is more different than the 97 to 99 per cent similarity to that of apes which is often touted by evolutionists.
- The notion of "natural selection" is being challenged by Dr. Randy Guliuzza, who has uncovered genetic data which suggests that organisms respond to their circumstances as though they were designed to do so by an intelligence.
These are but a few of the current projects underway by these diligent scientists. Since the controlling establishment will never acknowledge their studies, it is good to inform ourselves of these questions and discoveries in order to counter the smugness of a world which hates God and wishes it could prove He doesn't exist.
