Science Fair/Term Paper Ideas for Creation vs. Evolution

Publication by ( February 1, 2012 )

Students of all ages frequently ask for ideas on how to tie in principles from RTB’s testable creation model to their research projects. So I’ve compiled a list (with help from volunteer apologist Virginia Peterson, who researched links) to help get your creative juices flowing.

Anthropology (Human Origins)

Examine the behaviors (fire-building, toolmaking) and key pieces of evidence (bones, tools, DNA) related to a major hominid species (Neanderthals, Homo habilis, Homo erectus). How many specimens have been found? How solid is this evidence? How might this hominid be viewed from a testable creation model perspective?

Publication by ( August 24, 2008 )

The public debate about teaching intelligent design has exposed widespread confusion both inside and outside the church about how the scientific enterprise operates.
One of the most frequent complaints scientists make about the Intelligent Design movement is that their brand of intelligent design is not testable, falsifiable, or predictive. This brand lacks these features, scientists explain, because there is no model explaining the nature of the intelligent design. The problem with these complaints is that the general public has little comprehension of what really makes up a scientific model or why it is so important for a model to be …

… ancestors. Yet, several recent studies have uncovered what appears to be violations of Dollo’s Law. These violations call into question the sufficiency of the evolutionary paradigm to fully account for life’s history. On the other hand, the return to ‘ancestral states’ finds an explanation in an intelligent design/creation model approach to life’s history.

French paleontologist Louis Dollo formulated the law that bears his name in 1893 before the advent of modern-day genetics, basing it on patterns he unearthed from the fossil record. Today, his idea finds undergirding in contemporary understanding of genetics …

Blog by ( August 13, 2017 )

On July 16–21, Fazale “Fuz” Rana and I attended the International Society for the Study of the Origin of Life (ISSOL) Conference held at the University of California, San Diego. The climax of the conference was the Wednesday (July 19) evening session devoted to answering the question, “64 Years after Miller Experiment, Can the Formation of Building Blocks of Life Be Considered As Solved?” (The Miller Experiment in 1953 was when Stanley Miller sparked a gas mixture of methane, ammonia, hydrogen, and water to produce a low-abundance level of a few of the simpler amino acids.

… response made it clear there was a community of people hungry for more of this type of content. Naturally, this response led us to develop a place where people could enroll in top-notch science apologetics courses, and Reasons Institute was born.

In 2003, RI officially launched with two courses: Creation and the Bible and Creation vs. Evolution. We knew God would open doors for RI and the demand for apologetics education would continue to grow. Over time, more scholars came on board to help develop courses and expand our reach.

With the development of new courses came the birth …
