Creation & Origins
A series examining creation and origins questions from a Christian perspective, presenting both the creation-side and mainstream scientific cases fairly.
-
A 1952 experiment got taught as the first chapter of a solved problem. A Rice University chemist with 130 patents says origin-of-life research is nowhere close — and DNA has a second problem once it exists: it doesn’t hold together either. Part 7 of the Creation & Origins series.
-
Watson and Crick set out to prove life was just chemistry — and found a code instead. Ken Ham’s rope-and-beads version, Meyer’s philosophical case, Carter’s genetics, and the real mainstream answer. Part 6 of the Creation & Origins series.
-
A pattern in the fossil record that’s genuinely strange under the conventional timeline: footprints showing up millions of years before the animals that supposedly made them. Paleontologist Marcus Ross walks through the strongest under-answered thorn in this whole series. Part 3 of the Creation & Origins series.
-
Why does the age of the earth matter so much to both sides? Because it’s the load-bearing wall for each paradigm. A closer look at how radiometric dating actually works, and a case where the same rock, dated multiple ways, gives wildly different answers. Part 2 of the Creation & Origins series.
-
Stretchable, squishy tissue pulled out of a dinosaur horn that’s supposedly tens of millions of years old. It’s not a hoax and not an isolated case — but it’s also not the slam-dunk it’s sometimes presented as. What the discovery actually shows, and the real science on both sides. Part 5 of the Creation &…

Most of this series argues from inference — what best explains rock we can’t watch form. This post is different: a case where geologists watched a canyon system, hundreds of feet deep, cut itself in a single day. What that does and doesn’t prove. Part 4 of the Creation & Origins series.

Before we look at a single fossil, footprint, or star, we need to talk about the assumptions everyone brings to the evidence — including the ones almost nobody tells you about. Part 1 of the Creation & Origins series.
