“Now evolution is the substance of fossils hoped for the evidence of links not seen.” (Duane T. Gish)
In yet another radio discussion (Newstalk 93 FM, Jamaica) atheist Lloyd D’Aguilar attempted to defend his position that evolution adequately explains the origins of living things. His chosen analogy is the improvement we observe in human affairs via trial and error.
As I tried to explain, trial and error can indeed lead to improvement when human minds…

Even very educated persons fall prey to repeating ideas/assertions without personally checking their probative value. Two such ideas will occupy our minds here.
False Idea #1 – The Bible says that the earth is about 6000 years old.
It takes only a tiny bit of critical reflection to realize that the Bible could not have said this since the last book in the Old Testament was written about the 5th century B.C. and the last…

I am summarizing the essence of the false ideas and not necessarily quoting Lloyd or any scientist (unless otherwise indicated).

False Idea #1- Given millions or billions of years matter can generate almost anything.

There is arguably no greater ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ evidence for the existence of a personal intelligent God than the presence and pervasiveness of biological information in all living things.
Ponder the testimony of atheistic Biologist Richard Dawkins on the nature of biological information
“…at the molecular genetic level, every single one of more than a trillion cells in the body contains about a thousand times as much precisely-coded digital information as my entire computer…” (The…

“The heavens declare nothing really, the firmament showeth nothing really, day unto day uttereth nothing really and night unto night showeth nothing really.  There is no speech or language from them, full stop, end of pre-scientific rubbish.”
Such would be a possible rewording of Psalm 19 in the hands of the so-called ‘New Atheists’ like Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens, all of whom are militant atheists who reject the argument from/to…
