Atheist Miracle: Origin of Life

by Don Batten – April 21, 2016 Astrobiologist Professor Paul Davies said, “How did stupid atoms spontaneously write their own software … ? Nobody knows … there is no known law of physics able to create information from nothing.”10 Not only must the DNA code be explained (how can a coded information storage system come about without intelligent design?), but the incredible machinery that reads the information and creates the components of life from that information has to be explained as well. Former hard-nosed

Atheist Miracle: Origin of Stars

by Don Batten – April 21, 2016 According to the big bang, the ‘only game in town’ to explain the origin of stars, there had to have been two phases of star formation. Phase 1 involved the formation of hydrogen/helium stars (which are called Population III stars7). Here is the first problem: how do you get gases formed in a rapidly expanding primordial universe to coalesce together to form a critical mass so that there is sufficient gravitational attraction to attract more

Atheist Miracle: Origin of the Universe

by Don Batten – April 21, 2016 Materialists (atheists) once tried to believe that the universe was eternal, to erase the question of where it came from. The famous British atheist Bertrand Russell, for example, took this position. However, this is not tenable. The progress of scientific knowledge about thermodynamics, for example, means that virtually everyone has been forced to acknowledge that the universe had a beginning, somewhere, sometime—the big bang idea acknowledges this (ideas like the multiverse only put the beginning more

Atheist Miracles

by Don Batten – April 21, 2016 Atheists often promote themselves as intelligent, logical, scientific, rational, etc. They even had a proposal to call themselves ‘brights’! The aggressive ‘new atheists’, such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and company, like to portray those of us who believe in a supernatural Creator as irrational, unscientific, unintelligent, ignorant, or even ‘needing help’ (Dawkins). The entertainment industry often reinforces these perceptions by portraying ‘religious’ people (Christians particularly, and especially church leaders) as buffoons or hillbillies (almost never

Faith in Atheism

“I remember how frustrated I became when, as a young atheist, I examined specimens under the microscope,” wrote Dr. Douglas Oliver. “I would often walk away and try to convince myself that I was not seeing examples of extraordinary design…” But the more Oliver studied the complexities of the natural world … the more inadequate he found atheistic and evolutionary explanations.* Today Dr. Oliver is among a growing number of former atheists who value the biblical truths of creation. It

Unearthed Seal Reinforces Biblical Account

According to a report in by Michael Bachner on December 3, 2015, “the first ever seal impression of a Judean king was unearthed in Jerusalem on .. December 2 at the foot of the southern wall of the Temple Mount…” It was the royal seal of King Hezekiah (727-698 BCE). The inscription reads (in ancient Hebrew), “Belonging to Hezekiah [son of] Ahaz king of Judah”. “..this is the first time that a seal impression of an Israelite or Judean king has ever come

Refugees Forcing End-Times Technology

Any reasonably informed person realizes that Europe, and the U.S.A. to a lesser extent, is in the midst of an unprecedented refugee crisis. With the dramatic developments in the Middle East – the Syrian civil war, the explosion of ISIS and other terrorist armies, the entrance of Russia into Syria, among other things – millions of Middle Easterners and North Africans have been displaced. And hundreds of thousands of them are streaming into Europe seeking protection. Many are also taking

Prideful to a Fault

It struck me recently that the seemingly endless debate of “Evolution versus Creation” contains an obvious irony on the side of Evolution. First of all, it should be noted that, according to the Wikipedia definition, Creationism is the religious belief that the universe and life originated “from specific acts of divine creation.” For young Earth creationists, this includes a biblical literalist interpretation of the Genesis creation narrative and the rejection of the scientific theory of evolution. Wikipedia contains this definition

Planned Parenthood hides the truth

Planned Parenthood doesn’t want women to know the abortion pill may be reversible. That’s why they sued Arizona to block the CAP-supported law requiring that women are informed of this potentially life-saving procedure. Yet in another brazen attempt to hide the truth, Planned Parenthood has taken an unprecedented step to withhold the facts from a Federal District Court. Since this provision was introduced at the legislature, the pro-abortion community has been calling the Abortion Pill Reversal “junk science.” Yet doctors

Cyber Pearl Harbor

In a single day last month, three American institutions — the New York Stock Exchange, United Airlines, and the Wall Street Journal — experienced devastating computer “outages” (hacks?). Each of these represent major pillars of the U.S. economy. In June, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) revealed that it had been the target of a very sophisticated and protracted hack exposing the private information of millions of federal employees. Then later, OPM reported that it had suffered another computer
