- Save The World! Get Rid Of Lawyers?
By: Lucille Uttermohlen | - I would like to say I'm not lazy, but that would take too much energy, and it wouldn't be true. As we all know, lawyers are sticklers for the truth. I don't mind expending effort. In fact, there are some things, like rescuing my dinner from my golden retriever, that I do with enthusiasm. There are many more things I do without complaint, if not with pleasure. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating about the "without complaint" bit. Still, I think I've come up with a way to end global warming. Yes, ...

- No Transitional Fossils In Cambrian Explosion: A Challenge To Darwinism
By: William Nugent | - Anyone who has been exposed to the teaching of evolution has heard of the Cambrian Explosion of fossils. The evolutionists call it an "explosion" of fossils because so many fossils appear so abruptly in the geologic column.
The Cambrian rock layers are among the lowest and "oldest" layers in the geologic column yet are extremely rich in both number and variety of fossils. The layers below the Cambrian are virtually void of fossils.
The Cambrian layer contains bil ...

- Copenhagen At The Crossroads; Adaptation Or Mitigation?
By: Klaus H Hemsath | - The Copenhagen Climate Conference 2009 was intended to commit world governments to a common purpose and approach on reducing climate changes. Already before the meeting, it is becoming obvious that such an agreement cannot be reached. The reason is simple; the concept of the Kyoto Treaty is deeply flawed and more and more countries are urged by their citizens to find more effective and more agreeable provisions for a new treaty.
Such a worldwide pact must treat every country fairl ...

- Wine Storage Temperature And Serving Suggestions
By: Tristan Andrews | - The love of wine has existed since the dawn of time. Fossil vines, 60-million-years-old, are the earliest scientific evidence of grapes. The earliest written account of viniculture is in the Old Testament of the Bible which tells us that Noah planted a vineyard and made wine (well with all those animals on the Ark what was he expected to do!)
Exactly when it was discovered is unknown, but an ancient Persian fable credits a lady of the court with the discovery of wine. This Prin ...

- Death Of Stephen J. Gould
By: William Nugent | - With sadness I must report the recent death of Dr. Stephen Jay Gould, 61, Harvard professor and prolific author. Dr. Gould was a down to earth, affable man who wrote many books on the subject of evolution.
He attempted to bring evolution to the masses in simplistic terms. His work is reminiscent of that of Thomas Huxley (1825-1895). Huxley was called Darwin's bulldog for his aggressive spreading of the Darwinian faith.
Why would a creationist as myself mourn the de ...

- Fighting Global Warming Is Impossible. Fighting Global Warming Means War On The Sun!
By: Andy Truthman | - Does the average person know what greenhouse gases are, or even what the term Global Warming means? They may think they do, but the average layman's information comes not from reliable scientific sources, but from media reportage - science as ordered by the government.
Fighting global warming is a term as misleading and unscientific as those who coined it - it is also morally wrong, denouncing years of sound and proven scientific research. The public are being manipulated by a ...

- Darwinists Stop Lying!
By: Harun Yahya | - Darwinists are wretched out of desperation!
They attempted to show the complete lemur fossil named Ida--which is an extinct species--as a transitional form.
And about 90 percent of the animal and plant species on earth became extinct.[1] There are 99 species of lemurs. And 16 species of lemurs became extinct and many other species are now being determined as extinct. And many more species have been lost. All the extinct species are all perfect living forms with no ...

- Darwinists Are In Dismay!
By: Harun Yahya | - Darwinists have concluded from the way orang utans produce the sound of laughter that these are the ancestors of human beings.
Let us not provide other evidence, although this evidence may well depress Darwinists even further: If Darwinists are looking for similarities, orang utans teeth also resemble those of human beings. They also have two eyes and a nose in the front of their heads, just like human beings! They also have two ears and two arms. They eat and move. Just like hum ...

By: Knight Pierce Hirst | - A study on heart-healthy foods published in "Archives of Internal Medicine" was based on 189 previous studies involving millions of people. Vegetables, nuts and the Mediterranean diet - a diet high in vegetables, nuts, whole grains, fish and olive oil - qualified as good for the heart. Starchy carbohydrates like white bread, as well as the trans fats in many cookies and french fries qualified as bad. In between were foods like meat, eggs and milk for which there isn't yet enough evidence. Unfort ...

- What Do We Learn From Old Stuff?
By: Knight Pierce Hirst | - Digging in the Kenyan desert scientists found what they believe are the oldest, humanlike footprints - footprints that were embedded in mud 1.5 million years ago. The footprints are approximately a men's shoe size 9, providing a height of about 5 feet 9 inches - most likely Homo erectus. The prints give compelling evidence of a long stride, an arch giving spring to the step and toes in alignment to absorb weight as the foot rolled forward. According to anthropologists, the evolution of the foot ...

- No Carbon Monoxide Detectors In 48% Of American Homes
By: Jon Butt | - Worrying research released in February this year suggested that 48% of Americans do not have carbon monoxide detectors fitted in their homes.
The annual Consumer Report Survey highlighted the lack of carbon monoxide detectors, which can help to detect dangerous levels of the highly toxic odourless gas & therefore save lives.
Sources of this dangerous gas can include generators, charcoal grills & stoves, motor vehicles, fire, boats, or any other appliances powered by fossi ...

- Theories About The Extinction Of Dinosaurs
By: David H Urmann | - There are many theories about the extinction of dinosaurs. Many believe that this is due to their inability to adapt to the changing conditions of the earth. Other theories include the Theory of Asteroid Collision and the Deccan Traps Theory.
The extinction of non-avian dinosaurs happened all of a sudden about 65 million years ago. Later on, other animals also became extinct. This included the Mosasaurs, Ammonites, Pterosaurs, Plesiosaurs, crocodiles, herbivorous turtles, some bir ...

- The Incalculable Cost Of Oil And Gas Production
By: Dominic Donaldson | - The oil and gas industry is currently synonymous with controversy over carbon emissions and fuel prices. During the past few months, the public have witnessed the going rate of petrol and diesel yo-yo its way in and out of affordability due to the price of a barrel of oil. Fuel prices from major gas suppliers have also undergone an almost intangible hike, with some companies announcing increases of up to 40 per cent. It may seem an unusual statement to make but even at a high price, the poten ...

By: Chris Jensen | - Here you will learn a little more about fowl as well as being presented with a classic recipe for preparing guinea fowl.
In colloquial usage the term fowl is often used of any bird that's consumed by people. As such it includes both domestic and game birds. In scientific usage, however, the birds classed as 'fowl' belong to two types either the land fowl Galli forme, chicken-like birds or the waterfowl, Anseri formes, ducks etc.
These two groups of birds are actual ...

- Science, Education, And The Subject Of Beginnings.
By: PiBa | - True science is the search for truth. The single most important principle of science education is the one that instructs students to identify assumptions, use critical thinking, make logical deductions, and consider alternative explanations. When any theory becomes dogma, and its proponents seek every device to protect the theory from challenges and seek to ban alternatives, this is poor science, poor education, and a violation of the academic freedom of students and teachers. These consideratio ...

By: Shawn Wilson | - The Environment is always a hot topic these days, more specifically, global warming.
It seems everyone from scientists, politicians and the media have their view and opinion on what global warming really is and what it is doing to our planet. One thing is consistent throughout - it's a way to get the public's attention. We are warned about the dangers of what global warming does and how we are responsible for it.

- The Many Sources Of Methane And Biogas
By: Steve D Evans | - Methane is a combustible gas, which exists in two ways as part of the natural biological cycle when it is known as biogas, or biomethane, or as a mineral or fossil-fuel gas when it is called natural gas.
As a mineral fuel it can be extracted from the earth's crust in the form of natural gas, or from waste sludge and biological sources including organic waste as biogas. Methane is widely accepted as the cleanest burning of all fossil fuels, but the extraction process i ...

By: Russ Miller | - When compared to real science, radiometric (also called radioisotope) dating methods used by Darwinian scientists fall far short of being scientific. Many wild guesses are made which corrupt the reliability of the radioisotope dating techniques.
Bear in mind that these radioisotope dating methods are not a measure of time; but rather a method of accounting for the amount of radioactive decay that has occurred within a certain type of radioactive element.

- Looking At Concrete In A New Light As A Sustainable Building Material

- Grand Gala: The Queen Of Roses
By: Timothy Spencer | - Did you know that fossil evidence found in Egyptian tombs suggests that roses have been around for about 35 million years? Cultivating roses was a practice that only began five thousand years ago in China, though it didnt take long for the genus Rosa to spread to the West and develop new uses besides aesthetic ones.
Ancient Romans were rather obsessed with roses they used the red flower petals as confetti during parades and celebrations, as a source of perfume, and as ing ...

- A Reply To Andya Primanda
By: Harun Yahya | - Andya Primanda, an Indonesian Muslim paleontologist, has recently been criticizing books and articles posted on the website which reject the theory of evolution. Primanda, who has stated that he believes in God - and so we assume that he believes in the creation - is probably influenced by the Darwinist dogma that dominates the paleoanthropological world. He insistently argues for the theory of evolution and states that he finds the criticisms brought against evolution incorrect. However, as we ...

- Evolution: Trouble Times Four
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - Bombardier Beetle
One of life's little riddles is the bombardier beetle. As far as evolution is concerned, it's a tough nut to crack. This small insect has a very imposing chemical defense system. When threatened, it aims it's two abdomen tubes at its adversary, often an ant or spider. Then the bombardier fires off a series of miniature explosions peppering its victim with boiling acid. It is quite effective at keeping predators at bay.
What makes it work? ...

- Homo Sapien Sapiens: Where Did We Originate?
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - The beginning of Homo sapien sapiens (Let's just call them sapiens) is shrouded in mystery. Estimates vary among the authorities anywhere from 100,000 to a million years ago. Trying to trace modern humans back to Homo erectus is as difficult to document as it was with neanderthal.
Human or human-like creatures may have been around for a very long time. In Ethiopia, a stone tool dated 2.5 million years ago was recently uncovered. That is the oldest tool ever found by a half mil ...

- Are You Related To A Neanderthal?
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - Homo sapiens neanderthal lived between 130,000 and 35,000 years ago. Europe was the center of their range. Some have been found as far south as Gibraltar, even down to Israel and the Near East. They were bordered on the north by glaciers, on the south by the Mediterranean Sea, and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean.
Height: Average around 5 foot 8 inches.

By: Jerry Richard Boone | - The Theory
Speaking at Hobart and Wilson Smith College in 1980, Stephen J. Gould, noted evolutionist writer and lecturer, remarked:
"Every paleontologist knows that most species don't change. They get a little bigger or bumpier but they remain the same species and that is stasis. And yet this remarkable stasis has generally been ignored as no data. If they don't change it is not evolution so don't talk about it."

- Fossils Vote On Evolution
By: Jerry Richard Boone | - According to Darwin, new species arise by gradual accumulation of incremental changes over long periods of time. That's evolution in a nutshell. Can Darwin's hypothesis be tested? To find out, we turn to the only real evidence we have of prehistoric life, our bone and shell guide to the past - the fossil record.
The critical question is: Does the fossil record support Darwin's gradual change theory? What do you think would happen if we put evolution to a vote, allowing the fo ...
