Stars, Cells, and God

​ Dinosaurs in Ancient Art | Deadly Magnetic Excursion


Listen Later

Join biochemist Fazale “Fuz” Rana and astrophysicist Hugh Ross as they discuss new discoveries with theological and philosophical implications that point to the reality of God’s existence.

Young-earth creationists claim that humans and dinosaurs coexisted. One key line of evidence they cite in support of this claim concerns the depictions of “dinosaurs” in art made by humans before paleontologists discovered dinosaur remains. In this episode, biochemist Fuz Rana demonstrates why the appearance of dinosaurs in ancient art fails to support a young-earth view.

A 3D reconstruction of Earth’s magnetosphere during the Laschamps event (a geomagnetic excursion 41,000 years ago) shows that for 300 years, Earth’s magnetic field strength weakened to less than 10% of its present level and the aurora oval (ring-shaped zone around Earth’s magnetic poles) expanded and moved to lower latitudes. Hugh Ross tells us how this event was catastrophic for Neanderthals and Denisovans, but not for humans because they had sunscreen and made clothing.

Note: Stars, Cells, and God will be on hiatus for the month of June, but don’t worry—we’ll be back with new episodes in July!
