Let's Talk Creation

In this latest installment in our ongoing Creationism 101 series, our hosts Todd and Paul tackle the fall as described in Genesis 3. Our story begins in the idyllic Garden of Eden where God has just created Adam and Eve, but it all comes crashing down when Eve has a conversation with a serpent! Who is this serpent, and how do we know? Join Paul and Todd as they explain all the consequences of Adam and Eve's disobedience in this latest episode of Let's Talk Creation!

Todd and Paul wrap up their big Czech Adventure with a visit to the Stone Age! Long ago, the southern Czech villages of Pavlov and Dolní Věstonice were home to mammoth hunters, and they left abundant evidence of their dwellings, prey, and even culture. Over the past century, Czech archaeologists have been excavating those sites, and Paul and Todd are going to get the whole scoop as they wander the countryside where these ancient hunters lived. What does this site mean for creationists?

Lucy may be the most famous Australopithecus fossil, but Selam is much better preserved. Researchers discovered this fossil in 2000 just across the river from where Lucy was found, and the recent exhibit at the Czech National Museum in Prague included this fossil as well as Lucy. In this episode, Paul and Todd review all the details from this skeleton, including a part that is completely unique in Australopithecus discoveries. What's the creationist angle on all this? You'll have to tune in to find out!Materials for this EpisodeWood, Todd Charles and Brummel, P. S.

Todd and Paul travel to the National Museum of the Czech Republic to see the first exhibition of the Lucy skeleton in Europe! They stood in line with throngs of other people to witness this seminal Australopithecus skeleton firsthand. In this first in a series of three episodes recorded in Czechia, Paul and Todd describe what they saw and what it was like to view the original bones. What surprised them about seeing them in person? What religious overtones did the exhibit take on? Were the bones even real??? Find out in the latest episode of Let's Talk Creation, and be sure to come back in two weeks for part two of Todd and Paul's Czech Adventure!Materials for this Episode

Hominins and feathered dinosaurs get all the publicity, but what even is a non-mammalian synapsid? They are some of the weirdest and coolest fossils in the fossil record, and they get almost no attention! Join Todd and Paul as they chat with paleontologist Matt McLain about these weird fossils. Do they really prove mammal evolution, or is there much more to the story? Find out on this episode of Let's Talk Creation!

Did God really make a man and name him "Dirt?" He sure did! Todd and Paul talk about creationist beliefs in Genesis chapter 2. They cover all the basic creationist beliefs from the creation of Adam (AKA "Dirt") to the planting of the Garden of Eden to the naming of animals and the creation of woman. Also: Did it rain before the Flood? (*SPOILER* YES.) Where is Eden? (*SPOILER* It's gone now.) And what's up with all the agricultural hints in this chapter? Check it out in the latest episode of Let's Talk Creation!

Were the Flood waters filled with chemical contamination? Did Noah and company leave the ark to find a world poisoned with toxic sludge? In their latest episode, Todd and Paul chat with chemist Aaron Hutchison about the toxic elements arsenic and mercury. Dr. Hutchison explains his research on these dangerous elements and what would have happened to them during the Flood. Listen in and find out how the Lord preserved us from toxic contamination!

Everyone says that Genesis 2 contradicts Genesis 1! Could everyone be wrong? Join Paul and Todd as they discuss the alleged problems with Genesis 2 in this latest episode in our Creationism 101 series. From the name of God to the creation of birds, Todd and Paul take on eight contradictions and find most of them wanting. The detailed creation of Adam is definitely different from the creation week, but rumors of contradiction are greatly exaggerated.

We often hear the claim that creationism is a recent theological error, but there have been young age creationists for most of the history of the church. In this episode, Todd and Paul chat with Warren Johns about the Scriptural Geologists, a group of creationists active during the earliest growth of the science of geology. Back before geologists were geologists, there were still creationists holding the faith! Learn all about them in this week's episode of Let's Talk Creation!

Plate tectonics tells us all about how the continents are drifting along at a centimeter or two a year, ever so gradually reshaping the surface of the earth, remaking the ocean floor, and causing earthquakes and volcanoes the world over. But what if it went a lot faster? In this episode, Todd and Paul chat with geophysicist Sarah Peterson about the CATASTROPHIC version of plate tectonics that has become the leading model of how the Flood happened. Sarah walks us through both the basic concepts of tectonics and how Catastrophic Plate Tectonics explains even more than the slow, conventional version. If you've ever wondered how volcanoes, earthquakes, and continental drift fit in the creation model, this episode is for you!Papers mentioned in this episodePetersen, Sarah and Baumgardner, John (2023) "Catastrophic Plate Tectonics and the Tectonics of Western North America," Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism: Vol. 9, Article 33.DOI: 10.15385/jpicc.2023.9.1.54Available at: https://digitalcommons.cedarville.edu/icc_proceedings/vol9/iss1/33Austin, Steven A.; Baumgardner, John R.; Humphreys, D.
