CMI’s Richard Fangrad has a very funny response to the attack on creationism by Bill Nye, the science guy: CMI: Evolutionism is not appropriate for anyone.
Bill’s Youtube video is called Bill Nye: Creationism Is Not Appropriate For Children. It’s had over 3 million views and is full of the usual logical falacies, which Richard Fangrad [...]

Paleobiologist Simon Conway Morris, of Burgess Shale fame, says that examination of the fossil evidence demands a radical rewriting of evolution. Why so?
In an interview with the University of Cambridge’s alumni magazine (Issue 65, Lent 2012, pp. 32–35) Conway Morris says it’s because of “convergence”.
That’s the tendency of very different organisms to evolve [...]

Those studying geology and those working as geologists in geological surveys, universities, and private industry will enjoy this article by Brett Smith from a 2008 Journal of Creation. It may be a bit of a challenge:
The current treatment of young-age creationists in the scientific community and society at large is unfair and unwise. Scientists and [...]

Mohler is President of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary — the flagship school of the Southern Baptist Convention and one of the largest seminaries in the world.
On his latest blog:

There is a huge battle shaping up within evangelical circles over the authority of the Bible, a debate that will spill into the wider community and impact scientific, geological and academic realms.
The orthodox evangelical view held by the pioneers of science, including geological pioneer Nicholas Steno, is that the Bible records real history: that [...]
Anyone who publishes a rebuttal to any of Dawkins’ books will be branded as a flea. From his own site:
Many “parasitic” authors have released books which use Richard’s name or titles to sell their own books …
So any critique is dismissed as “parasitic”.
The latest book given that status is Jonathan Sarfati’s The [...]
I wrote a note to a couple of the politicians who appeared on last night’s Q and A.
I saw you on Q & A last night and I appreciate the way you tried to stand up to Dawkins’ attacks on the Christian faith.

Perhaps there is a journalist in Australia who is brave enough to ask it.
Why won’t he debate creationists?
If he is so sure of his science as he continually says, and creationists are so ignorant and ill informed, then why not have it out once for all? Even some of his fans from his web [...]
