The Paradigms They Are A-Shifting

Here's a collection of science news about long-held paradigms that were wrong. But can we trust the new shifts.

Geologists Were Wrong About Silt Transport by Rivers

New study "muddies the waters" about sediment transport by rivers, with important implications.

A Central Computer in our Cells

Rather than functioning as a simple on-off switch, TORC1 behaves as a highly integrated regulatory system.

To Understand Current Science, Learn This Word

It has several synonyms, but the word appears very often in science news.

Anomalies Disrupt Climate Models

How the Atlantic Cold Spot reveals cracks in conventional climate models and Darwin’s timeline.

Is Psychology Schizophrenic?

Psychology is so stuck on an illogical paradigm, it is out of touch with reality. As it tries to explain schizophrenia, it exemplifies it.

Big Errors Common in Big Science

It’s in the nature of theories to be overturned by new data. So how much trust should be put in current theories? Even the positivists like the reporters in New Scientist recognize that “There is no such thing as scientific truth, just a set of provisional truths that are subject to revision or rejection when […]

Anti-Biblical Bias Shaped Geological Opinion

Geologists resisted evidence for catastrophic flooding because they wanted to distance themselves from Genesis.

Is Geology in a Scientific Revolution?

The editors of a leading geology journal consider the possibility that one of their core concepts is a mere paradigm.

How Explanatory Is Evolutionary Theory?

Darwinians make big boasts about their theory as the central organizing principle in biology, but what does it actually explain?

Lunar Impact: Major Moon Basin Was Not a Big Hit

The theory of how the largest impact basin on the moon was formed has been turned upside down.

Paradigm Shift: Impact Didn't Kill Dinosaurs

A new study casts doubt on whether asteroid impacts led to extinctions. It's based on re-interpreting geological evidence used to identify impacts. This finding, if sustained, would undermine the theory that an impact killed off the dinosaurs and a later impact led to the extinction of many large mammals. Even more significant, an overturn of the impact hypothesis would illustrate that scientists are capable of going off on wrong tangents for decades.

Will Darwinism End With a Big Bang?

We may be seeing the end of Darwinism as we know it.
