The quote "Nature red in tooth and claw" comes from Alfred, Lord Tennyson's very long series of poems "In Memoriam A.H.H," completed in 1849. Many evolutionists quote this phrase in support of their ideas of natural selection. When he began to write this poem, Tennyson questioned God's love and sovereignty over nature because of the … Continue reading Nature Red in Tooth and Claw

"Academic politics is the most vicious and bitter form of politics because the stakes are so low." "Sayre's Law" -- this version found in the December 20, 1973 Wall Street Journal. "The stakes are so low" seems off, but all of us who ever taught at the college level are intimately acquainted with the bitterness … Continue reading Science, Falsely So Called
Refuse foolish and ignorant speculations, knowing that they produce quarrels. The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged, with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God may grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, and they may come to … Continue reading What Is “Progressive Creation” ?
Our book Antidisestablishmentarianism expands the following points in detail. Antidisestablishmentarianism has thousands of footnotes and over thirty pages of Bibliography references. These brief explanations will help those indoctrinated in the religion of Secular Humanism to begin to understand what America’s founding fathers knew when they wrote the Constitution. The words belief, trust and faith are … Continue reading Foundational Facts
This is a rest stop along I-80 near Laramie, Wyoming which serves to commemorate the Lincoln Highway, which, the displays say, crossed the US from Times Square to San Francisco. There is a huge sculpture of Abraham Lincoln's head on the site as well. Displays tell how the sculpture was made, how many tons of … Continue reading Why does Abe Lincoln Look So Grim?
When a person begins work as a 3D animator, he has to keep in mind that he will be expected to work as part of a team and be productive. There are different methods of determining productivity, but usually he will be expected to come "up to speed" quickly. A military background, for example, should … Continue reading 3D Animation Work
We, as Christians, as often asked by people who believe that they are intellectuals why we believe what we believe. I am not aware of any brief list which is not woefully inadequate. The following list could easily be expanded, but it is a good ready reference. (Please note that many of these points are … Continue reading Intellectual Reasons for Belief
There are only two ways to teach Science: to teach it as a unified subject or divide it into categories. Unified sounds good but can be overwhelming to students. Subatomic particles like electrons don't divide themselves into disciplines according to how they behave. In Physics we study electrons in different ways from observing how they … Continue reading Principles of Science Teaching
I. The Bible is the authoritative foundation for science, arts, literature, math, history, geography, geology, physics, chemistry, medicine, biology and all other academic disciplines. Anything which contradicts the Word of God either directly or by ignoring it, is in error. II. The Material universe was created out of the non material world. III. The Original … Continue reading Important Points Which Must Be Covered in Education
Everyone who's written a paper knows the pressure of a grade. At some point, maybe in High School, maybe after obtaining a doctorate, the student has enough grasp of the subject material to help grade, not just be graded. This type of evaluation, grading papers written by those with similar education, is known as Peer … Continue reading Peer Review Or Peer Pressure?

All quotes, unless otherwise noted, are by Stephen Hawking from his book A Brief History of Time. "A theory is a good theory if it satisfies two requirements: It must accurately describe a large class of observations on the basis of a model that contains only a few arbitrary elements, and it must make definite … Continue reading The Religion of Physics IV: What is “Scientific Evidence?”
14. What Does The Scientific Evidence Prove?“I am quite conscious that my speculations run quite beyond the bounds of true science.” Charles Darwin1 “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” John Adams2 “In the space … Continue reading Chapter Fourteen from Antidisestablishmentarianism: What Does the Scientific Evidence Prove?
There are two ways to rewrite history. The common lie is ineffective. The amazingly effective method is far more difficult. Simply eliminate any information which contradicts what you are attempting to promote. Never tell any outright lie, simply be very selective in what you allow your audience to hear. Secular Humanists always start from the … Continue reading The Religion of Physics III: Hawking Rewrites History
"We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special."1 Stephen Hawking "There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win, … Continue reading The Religion of Physics II: The High Priest Pontificates
"I put a lot of effort into writing A Briefer History [of Time] at a time when I was critically ill with pneumonia because I think that it's important for scientists to explain their work, particularly in cosmology. This now answers many questions once asked of religion."1 "What I have done is to show that … Continue reading The Religion of Physics I: What Is Physics?
"The Holy Scripture cannot err, ... the decrees therein contained are absolutely true and inviolable. But I should have in your place added that, though Scripture cannot err, its expounders and interpreters are liable to err in many ways," Galileo said in a 1613 letter to Benedetto Castelli. Anyone who dismisses the possibility of the … Continue reading What Did The Ark Of Noah Look Like?
The most religious people on earth are those who claim not to have any religion. Dogmatic, intolerant, and bigoted, they refuse to allow anyone to so much as speak their opposition. Yet these same people demand political power and tax support. The mildest opposition, such as the mere mention of Intelligent Design (not God), has … Continue reading Preface to Antidisestablishmentarianism
