“If unguided evolution really can do its magic, this should not be too difficult. However, if the challenge cannot be met, Darwinists must be asked to explain why.” — Günter Bechly, paleo-entomologist (CSC) As I was scrolling through some notes the other day, I found that I had been holding onto the URL for an […]
“AI mirrors its creator — Grok 4, with its curated data, reflects xAI’s biases, not an objective truth. Its reasoning, while advanced, remains bounded by human design and data, incapable of grasping the totality of existence.” — Grok 3.0 Not sure if I have addressed this in print before, but I have many concerns about […]
Although I am spending more time reading fiction these days, I did manage to read several non-fiction books in 2025, all of which I enjoyed and benefited from to varying degrees. Those described below are sort of a “Top 5” — the ones I consider standouts and would recommend to anyone interested in the relevant […]
Although I already put out a Christmas post a couple weeks ago, I came up with something else my readers might find interesting, and I didn’t feel like waiting until next year to share it. Earlier this year, I posted “4 Easter-Related Archaeological Finds”, for which I borrowed material from Dr. Titus Kennedy’s book Unearthing […]
“U.S. President Donald Trump is the most obvious avatar for the geopolitical shifts confronting the [climate negotiation] talks.” — Politico‘s write-up on the U.N.’s recent Conference of the Parties The following excerpt comes from Dispatch Energy, one of the mildly-to-moderately anti-Trump newsletters under The Dispatch umbrella. Article author Philip Rossetti pointed out the real “elephant […]
A few weeks ago, I finished reading Old-Earth or Evolutionary Creation?, ed. by Keathley, Stump, and Aguirre. You might remember the title, because I published two posts this past August in which I cited representatives of the two Christian organizations that contributed to the discussion in the book — BioLogos and Reasons to Believe (RTB). […]
Several weeks ago, I shared a couple episodes of “Red Pen Logic” (RPL) by Christian apologist Tim Barnett, aka “Mr. B”. I found a couple others — this time responding to more general challenges from atheist critics/skeptics — and decided to share them, as well. In the first video below, Mr. B takes on that […]
“Science is not only compatible with spirituality, it is a profound source of spirituality.” — Carl Sagan A number of years ago, the late Chuck Colson wrote a piece discussing worldview ideas in film, especially those of a New Age flavor. After talking about Avatar, he brought up the movie Contact, and that’s where I […]
Last week I cited from Chapter 1 of the book Old-Earth or Evolutionary Creation?: Discussing Origins with Reasons to Believe and BioLogos (2017), quoting representatives of RTB as they clarified their organization’s approach on a few things. In that same redirect, Robert Stewart (one of the Southern Baptist theologians acting as moderators) also commented and […]
As I recall, this is not the first time I have posted on the topic of concordism in Christian apologetics, particularly as used by the Reasons to Believe (RTB) organization. This time, the source is Chapter 1 of the book Old-Earth or Evolutionary Creation?: Discussing Origins with Reasons to Believe and BioLogos (2017), which addresses […]
