While I was watching humans trying to save dinosaurs from extinction in the fictional cinema-verse of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, I remembered reading an article from Creation Ministries International called “Dinosaurs are almost certainly extinct” (February 22, 2018). The article’s message was that that “It is time to let go of the idea of ‘living…

Can a Dinosaur Have Feathers?
Recently, we wrote about “Eva,” An alleged coelurasaur fossil trapped in amber. While we noted that the evidence seems more consistent with a bird than a dinosaur, it got me to thinking: Why can’t a dinosaur have feathers? Two objections generally come to mind. The first is an appeal to consequences and the other is a…
Is It a Bird or a Dinosaur? A Tale of a Tail Trapped in Amber
At the tail end* of last year, the discovery of “Eva” (more formally known as DIP-V-15103) was announced as a dinosaur tail with feathers preserved in Cretaceous amber. The apricot sized sample also includes an ant and some plant debris. Discovered in an amber market in Myanmar, the tail fragment is believed to be a…
Has the Kachina Bridge Dinosaur Petroglyph Been Falsified? Not Even Close!
In March 2010, an intrepid pair of evolutionists, paleontologist Phil Senter and archaeologist Sally Cole, went out to Creationism’s most famous dinosaur icon, the Kachina Bridge sauropod petroglyph at Utah’s Natural Bridges National Monument. Why did they do it? Well, as Dr. Senter admits in an interview with LiveScience the problem was that the Kachina…
Jurassic World gives us food for thought on Man’s Dominion and the Tragedy of Death
I’ve seen Jurassic World twice now and I wouldn’t mind a third helping! I love the entire premise! What’s not to love? It’s got dinosaurs, Chris Pratt, those awesome gyrosphere vehicles and even includes several nods to the original movie for us diehard fans. And did I mention dinosaurs?? [Spoiler Alert!

How Televangelist Pat Robertson Should Have Answered Concerned Mother Michelle’s Dinosaur Question
A viewer named Michelle asked the following of televangelist Pat Robertson: “I have three teenage boys and now two of them are questioning the Bible. This scares me! They tell me if the Bible is truth then I should be able to reasonably explain the existence of dinosaurs. This is just on of many things…
Just the Facts – Concerning Rob Boston’s Defense of “rev” Barry Lynn’s Ark Snark Video
A few months ago, I found myself in the crosshairs of Rob Boston and Americans United for pointing out the hot air and misinformation in “rev” Barry Lynn’s “Ark Park” video on youTube. Barry Lynn, is of course the Executive Director of the Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. On the surface,…
Ark Wars: How False “Reverend” Barry Lynn Distorts the Facts but Proves Answers In Genesis’ Point
Recently, the kind folks at Americans United for Separation of Church and State sent me an email telling me about a special message from “Rev” Barry Lynn concerning the “Ark Park.” I never asked to be signed up to their spam feeder; I simply asked them to verify the “reverend’s” credentials and beliefs… and they…
New Theory of Dinosaur Extinction: Killed by a Meteor & It’s Officially Official [This Time]
Reuters has reported that a panel of 41 scientists, presumably in lab coats and hailing from Europe, the United States, Mexico, Canada and Japan, have finally identified the smoking gun behind the extinction of the dinosaurs. Sorting through 20 years worth of research, the panel decreed that a giant asteroid 9 miles wide pounding into the Earth…
Noah’s Ark: Beyond Flannelgraph
A lot of people have serious reservations as to whether the Ark Noah built was big enough to hold all of the animals God sent him to save from the world-wide Flood. This is largely the fault of an all-too-common image of a cute, little bathtub toy Ark over-stuffed with adorable animals, often with a…
Darwin’s Dyke: What the Fossil Record Actually Shows
How many times have you heard this? “The fossil record proves evolution!” It doesn’t. Let me tell you why. Hey, I’ll even show you. What the Geological Strata Charts don’t tell you. Now, the picture we’re usually given to illustrate how evolution is demonstrated shows a cross-section of geological strata and some corresponding text to…
