Of Gov. Sarah Palin and Dinosaurs
This is supposed to shock you. Get ready. Brace yourselves.
Gov. Sarah Palin believes that humans and dinosaurs coexisted on an earth that’s only about 6,000 years old.
Shocking, I know, since thousands of people have visited the Creation Museum. Check out this page on Wikipedia talking about polls on the topic of Creation and Evolution.

Debating Atheism/Evolution
One of the things that I’ve seen in many of the debates that I’ve recently entered about the origins of the world and the existence of God is really unfruitful and fails to recognize the complexity of the discussion.
It is rooted in the strong belief of the veracity of their side of the argument. Very few actually enter into this debate without a belief that they know the truth. I believe that if those people are present, they’re probably bystanders, watching exactly what will be said.

Expelled: The Movie You Have to See
Have you heard about this movie yet?
I started seeing ads for this movie show up at my site, but I had no idea what it was about. It turns out that Ben Stein has created a movie that documents how professors that choose not to believe in Evolution are systematically denied access to teaching positions, research positions, etc.?
This is from Ken Ham:
As you know, Darwinists have been expelling any hint of creation or intelligent design from public schools and research institutions. Now, many of them are expelling people from their academic posts in a desperate attempt to defend their evolutionary worldview. The upcoming film Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed comes to theaters on April 18.

Dawkins’ Worst Nightmare?
Ken Ham?
The Saturday Guardian contained an article with the sub-heading, “Dawkins’s worst nightmare takes his literalist Biblical message on a tour of the UK.” The reporter came by train from London to attend my speaking events in Leicester (in central England).
I’ve personally met Ken Ham, and he’s not close to anyone’s “worst nightmare”. Would an atheist’s worst nightmare be a person, or would it be God?
Science and God
One of the interesting this to me in the whole Creation/Evolution argument is the belief that somehow science is the answer to everything and is the expert on everything. Science, it seems, can tell you both if there’s a God and what happened throughout time, and it should never be questioned.
The strange thing is that this is exactly the opposite of what science is all about.

I Hope You Saw It
Try to explain a lunar eclipse to two boys that aren’t even in school. It was a fun adventure as I tried to explain to them about the Sun, the rotation around the Earth and why the moon was going to disappear for a little while. But that wasn’t the most interesting part of the night.

In The Old Testament, It Was a Drought
Have you ever stopped to think about how differently we look at things in the age of science than they did in Bible times? I often muse on the whole concept of relying on God totally, and, in doing so, think about all that we think we understand today and what it has done to our faith.
Global Warming
In the Old Testament, God used droughts to bring people to Him. He used Joseph and a drought to bring His people down to Egypt. He used Elijah and a draught to rid his land of the prophets of Baal and to show His strength.

Number One Reason Christians Lose Their Faith
If you had to guess what the number one reason for Christians that attend secular universities to leave their faith what would you guess?
I’m sure that some might guess that it would be liberal teaching. Others would guess that they get into the wrong crowds. And I suppose some could argue that these college students may never have been saved in the first place.
