Fun and accurate little article on the problems with the Big Bang theory ...

Nifty! A computer programmer looks at DNA and finds it to be "amazing" code.

Here's a great review article on alleged "junk DNA" and on what modern biology is discovering about the genome, and how it contradicts Darwinism.

Here is a helpful book review, of a recent book about theistic evolution. The review touches on many ways that evolution is not compatible with the Bible.

Stalactites show that earth's magnetic field reversals can happen "ridiculously quickly"... great article, showing another aspect of how the Bible's history matches the scientific evidence and how evolutionary/old-earth scientists were mistaken for decades about something considered to be scientific fact.

Tim Keller:
“The process of evolution, however, understands violence, predation, and death to be the very engine of how life develops. If God brings about life through evolution, how do we reconcile that with the idea of a good God? The problem of evil seems to be worse for the believer in theistic evolution”.

Fascinating article about Tim Keller's (current) theological blind spot. May he see the truth!

A WWII aircraft that crashed in Greenland 76 years ago has just been found... under 300 feet of ice!
https://crev.info/…/ww2-aircraft-found-300-ft-greenland-ice/

Some people claim that ice core data shows that the earth is millions of years old. But this news refutes that. From the article-
"Evolutionists and other long-agers often say that ‘the present is the key to the past’. In that case, the 3000-m-long ice core [brought up by the joint European Greenland Ice-core Project (GRIP) in Greenland in 1990–1992] would only represent some 2,000 years of accumulation. Allowing of course for compression of lower layers, (which is also offset by the inevitable aftermath of a global Flood, namely much greater precipitation and snowfall for a few centuries) there is ample time in the 4,000 or so years since Noah’s day for the existing amounts of ice to have built up—even under today’s generally non-catastrophic conditions."

Here are some recent reviews.  For more, see this link: http://tim223.xanga.com/category/book-reviews/

Spacecraft Earth, by Henry Richter and David Coppedge
This book summarizes information from many different domains of science, related to how Earth is optimized for life and how living creatures display optimal design. It discusses cosmology, including the Big Bang theory, multiverses, etc. It discusses biology, including the complexity of life and the difficulties with the commonly-accepted theories of evolution and abiogenesis. It discusses the evidence both for and against evolution. At the end, Dr. Richter shares his own life story, including his career of developing Explorer I (USA's first satellite) and how he became a Christian in his 40s.
The book has a perfect balance of concise information and readability, with a few stories and pictures thrown in too. It might be slightly too science-oriented for some, but it is perfect for anyone interested in science/engineering/tech/biology. It is great to read for learning more information, and great to give away to others.

God's Crime Scene, by J. Warner Wallace
Wallace, former detective, takes a "crime scene" approach to looking at the evidence for God's existence, such as the fine tuning of the universe and the existence of objective morality. The book is very easy to read, and has great clear lay explanations of the latest quantum physics arguments and how they relate to the debate (e.g. can things pop into existence spontaneously out of 'quantum vacuum'? Did Stephen Hawking's imaginary time remove the need for the universe to have a beginning?) He agrees with William Lane Craig's explanations. On the down side, he accepts a multi-billion-year-old universe and evolution, like Craig. Possibly useful (with caveats) for some people (e.g. atheists).

Escape from North Korea, by Melanie Kirkpatrick
This book tells about the underground railroad of people helping North Koreans escape their country. It is very well researched and documented, and very well written. It presents many facets of the issues and is very informative. It has many testimonials from North Korean refugees. It is a bit dated now, since it was published in 2012, but is still very worth reading.

Hope Heals, by Katherine and Jay Wolf
This is the true story of a couple who experienced a terrible medical tragedy, a brain stroke. They together (back and forth) write about their experience, and how God and their family/friends sustained them through it. It is powerful and beautiful - well worth reading.

Mideast Beast, by Joel Richardson
This book presents more of the Biblical side of the prophecies about the Antichrist and the end times. As presented in his old article "Will Islam be our future?" (http://www.answering-islam.org/Authors/JR/Future/index.htm ), Richardson believes that the end-times government described in the Bible will be a Muslim government, a renewed Caliphate/Ottoman empire. This book answers objections that people have presented to his view (i.e. from people who believe in a renewed Roman empire as the end-times government) He presents many interesting and persuasive interpretations of the relevant Bible passages, including Daniel, Revelation, Ezekiel, Zechariah, Isaiah, etc. His conclusion is that we should love Muslims, by seeking to bring the gospel of Christ to them and show them the way out of the darkness of Islam.

The Great Omission, by Steve Saint
The main point of this book is that western missionaries should seek to help the people with whom they are ministering become self-sufficient in terms of financing, leadership (especially church leadership), missions-sending, and technological skills. Missionaries should 'work themselves out of a job' in a particular place, empowering the indigenous church and local community to become self-sufficient and sending out other missionaries. It presents excellent points, although it gets a little like a 'rant' occasionally. Worth reading.

Scientists just learned that our genetic code (DNA -> amino acids) is the most optimal and efficient of all possible codes (they checked a million other possibilities). Frameshift errors tend to produce either synonymous AA's or AA's with similar polarity.
What an awesome designer God is! (and how pathetically impossible it would be for random chance to make such an amazingly robust and optimal code!)

Good quote from atheist Sam Harris: "The true fault-line in our culture runs between those who believe that there is such a thing as truth and those who believe that there are only expedient lies."
