Answers in Genesis
God, The Holy Spirit - A non-creation science article for the daily feature on 4 May. We should all listen to the Holy Spirit's leading, which reminds me of an article on Old Earth Ministries, that has to do with the Holy Spirit and creationism. The article is "God Doesn't Care About Creation."
Noah's Lost World - Daily for 3 May. This is a reprint from Answers Magazine, by Andrew Snelling. It attempts to explain away evidence for supercontinents, with a simplistic approach. He calls Rodinia the first supercontinent (which existed from 1100 to 750 Ma (million years ago)), then came Pangea, which formed temporarily during the Flood, and now we have our modern day arrangement. However, this ignores the other supercontinents, and leaves all the evidence for Pangea, which existed from about 300 Ma to 100 Ma, unexplained in the YEC system. This is typical sloppy geology by Snelling, who is known for such work.
Attempts to Trace Life Back to Chemical Origins Still Maps the Willful Ignorance of the Hunters - Daily for May 2nd. YEC spin on a science news report. Nothing new in YEC claims.
The Gap Theory Makes "False Additions to the Word" - From Ken Ham's Blog on May 2nd. This critiques the fact that this theory (and all other OEC theories) accepts death in the world prior to Adam's sin. With OEC, Adam's sin brought spiritual death, not physical. This is only a problem for the YEC belief system.
Creation Ministries International
Chimps 'natural killers' after all - Daily for 4 May. This article discusses chimpanzee's and their warfare and killing of other chimps, and relates that to evolutionary theory.
Answering Agnostic Arguments - Daily feature for 2 May. This is a response to feedback from the CMI website.
Institute for Creation Research
Scientific Suicide - Discusses the concept of belief, and how that relates to both naturalism and creationism.

Did you know that you can be a Christian,
and believe that the earth is billions of years old? You can even
believe in evolution and be a Christian. There is no conflict
between science and the Bible...all one needs is a proper
understanding how to merge science and the Bible. To learn more
about old earth creationism, see
Old Earth Belief,

Can You Be A
Christian and Believe in an Old Earth?
Feel free to check out more of this website. Our goal is to
provide rebuttals to the bad science behind young earth creationism,
and honor God by properly presenting His creation.
