>Synthesizing Light and Darkness
>Christopher Benson has a new post called, “The Future of the Science and Religion Debate.” (link to post – not recommended) Benson argues that, “Christians can achieve a “synthetic middle ground” in the debate if they get a better handle on the vocations of science and religion and a more robust doctrine of creation.” But…

Biologos is Not "One of Us"
Hast thou not known? Hast thou not heard,That the everlasting God,The LORD,The Creator of the ends of the earth, Fainteth not, neither is weary?There is no searching of his understanding.(Isaiah 40:28) Lest there be any uncertainty, groups like the Biologos forum that deny the central Christian tenet of Creation are not “one of us.” Their…

In the Beginning …
God created the heavens and the earth. It’s the first doctrine of Scripture. It’s one of the first doctrines of the so-called Apostles’ Creed. God’s title of “Creator” is found in both Old and New Testaments. Adam is in Christ’s line and Adam’s very real sin is central to the need for Christ’s incarnation. That…

Evidence for Recent Fossilization
That’s how I’d characterize the linked article, that describes alleged findings of dinosaur proteins, an unlikely event if the sample were really 65 Million years old (link). Caveat: Scientists dispute findings all the time. I wouldn’t be surprised to see folks try to challenge these findings as well. -TurretinFan To God be the Glory!

More Evidence of Creation and Providence
There is no lack of evidence that God created and rules all things. In this case, the evidence is a marvellously designed fish, which has a transparent dome on the top of its head, and tube-like eyes that can rotate up to look through the dome to look for prey above the fish (link). I…

30 Seconds to Think About the Moon
It is Monday still in much of the world, and by coincidence, Ray Comfort has a very brief but interesting blog post on the moon, which I think is 30 seconds of reading well spent (link). -TurretinFan To God be the Glory!

Marveling at God’s Creation
There has been discovery made of a bacteria that apparently obtains its energy without the use of oxygen (link). Of course, this will be used by scoffers to assert the evolutionary hypothesis, but it is an interesting specimen for legitimate scientific purposes as well. If the bacteria can produce energy without oxygen, this could pave…

Amazing Nature Video
God is great. He has made a marvelous creation, that we only quite incompletely understand. In the linked video, a demonstration of some of those marvels both in the areas of bioluminescence and dynamic camouflage are presented. (link) Anyone who wants to continue to believe that such amazing abilities are the result of chance mutations…
