The Creation Podcast

Welcome to the third episode in a series called “The Failures of Old Earth Creationism.” Many Christians attempt to fit old earth ideology into their beliefs, adopting uniformitarian or evolutionary pieces into their worldview. While this is often done in an effort to appeal to science, it can cause major logical, scientific, and theological issues.

 

Lake Suigetsu is a large lake located near the coast of the Sea of Japan with a depth of about 34 meters at its center. Old Earth Creationists claim that the sediments from this lakebed absolutely show that the Earth is at least 50 thousand years old. What evidence are these scientists looking at that supposedly provide ironclad proof that the Young Earth Creationist model is wrong?

 

In today’s episode we’ll explore the evidence in an effort to uncover “The Truth About Lake Suigetsu,” dismantling the poor science that causes many well-meaning individuals down a path that only leads to error.

How do engineering principles, biological complexity, and a solid understanding of apologetics work together to further the cause of Christ? Why must believers be trained in ways to defend the faith?

Welcome to the second episode in a series called “The Failures of Old Earth Creationism.” Many Christians attempt to fit old earth ideology into their beliefs, adopting uniformitarian or evolutionary pieces into their worldview. While this is often done in an effort to appeal to science, it can cause major logical, scientific, and theological issues.

 

The conversation surrounding human origins has always been an intriguing one. One of the most debated subjects is the nature of the beings labeled ‘hominids,’ particularly Neanderthals. Biblical Creationists firmly place Neanderthals in the ‘human’ category—descendants of Adam and Eve, thus bearing God’s image. Most evolutionary biologists today also agree with Neanderthals being mostly human, leaving their genetic mark on our DNA through interbreeding.

 

Some old earth creationists suggest something quite different. They claim that Neanderthals were nothing more than animals—truly bipedal animals that are able to make and use tools, paint, and bury their dead—but animals nonetheless.

 

Is there any truth to this idea? Were they just animals? Or were they fully human, bearing the image of God? In today’s episode, we’ll dig into “The Mystery of the Soulless Hominids,” ex... More...

Welcome to the first episode in a series called “The Failures of Old Earth Creationism.” Many Christians attempt to fit old earth ideology into their beliefs, adopting uniformitarian or evolutionary pieces into their worldview. While this is often done in an effort to appeal to science, it often leads to major issues logically, scientifically, and theologically.

 

Today we’ll look at what is considered by many to be a strong argument for an old Earth: ice cores. Ice cores, cylindrical cores drilled from the thick ice sheets, are often presented as indisputable evidence of hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of years of Earth’s history, but how reliable are these claims? What assumptions lie beneath the surface of these interpretations? In this episode, we’ll discuss: what ice cores are and why they’re significant, the assumptions and flaws in Old Earth interpretations, and how ice cores ultimately align with a young Earth model.

America is home to stunning forests, mountains, monuments, and other wondrous features. The unique beauty of many of these locations has prompted both state and federal governments to designate them as national or state parks. Thousands upon thousands of visitors visit these sites daily to experience their awe-inspiring grandeur. But where did they come from? Many scientists claim that most of them formed slowly through uniformitarian processes, but is that true? Join us as we journey through Parks Across America.

 

In the first few episodes of this series, we explored America’s oldest national park – Yellowstone, as well as several other national parks and monuments. Today we’ll be visiting two other stunning locations that showcase catastrophic geology.

Science is objective. At least, that’s what we’re told. But there are inherent issues with this statement that can cause very real confusion. How can two rational, intelligent people look at the same piece of evidence and offer different explanations for their observations—and not just different, but mutually exclusive. What causes this divide, and what can we do about it?

 

In the previous episodes, we looked at the purpose and power of theory; how evolutionary selectionism, the current reigning theory, is purposefully crafted to be anti-design; and how to reverse Darwin’s thought processes to develop a theory of biological design that actually works. In this episode we’ll look at how the benefits of a theory of biological design as well as a general overview of what it means to look at organisms with such a perspective.
