December 25, 2007
Evolution News has a picture of Darwin as Santa Claus. They got the picture from a Winter Solstice card sent among atheists at Winter Solstice luncheons that are springing up around the country.

What Materialist Science Still Cant Figure Out
December 21, 2007
Darwin called the origin of flowering plants an “abominable mystery,” but it is not the only one. The scientific materialism that strives to explain all reality by “natural” causes without resource to a designing intelligence has a long way to go.

Is a 100-Year Misunderstanding about Plants Solved?
March 15, 2007
Part of “one of the biggest misunderstandings in botanical history,” a plant has moved from an upper part of the family tree down to the bottom. Trithuria submersa, an underwater flowering plant from India and Australia that was thought to be a monocot is really not a cot at all, says Science Daily reporting on […]
Darwinists Blur Science with Fiction
March 9, 2007
One would think make-believe is for kids, and science is for adults. Some recent evolution stories, however, seem to portray a seamless continuum between imagination and testable scientific hypotheses. You be the judge: Darwin in cyberspace: If it happens in a computer simulation, is it really evolution? National Geographic reported on a new computer game […]
