Gene-Tree Conflicts Make a Case for Creation

Blog by Hugh Ross ( June 14, 2021 )

Earth’s life history shows the rapid introduction of complex life-forms, followed by mass extinctions, followed again by novel life-forms. Which model for life’s history better explains such events: evolution or creation? In scientific research, conflicts between different data sets and sets of measurements, or between observations and theoretical explanations for the observations typically are strong […]

BioLogos and Reasons to Believe are two of the most prominent organizations leading the conversation between biblical Christianity and contemporary science.

Summary of Reasons To Believe’s Testable Creation Model

Publication by Hugh Ross ( February 6, 2000 )

Evolution as Mythology, Part 1 (of 5): The Theory of Evolution is a Myth

Publication by Guest Writer ( May 5, 2008 )

The creation-evolution debate is usually framed as science v. religion: verifiable fact v. faith. But we contend that it takes at least as much faith to believe in the theory of evolution as in creation by a supernatural God. And in reality, evolution has more characteristics of a “myth” than of a scientific theory.

Sexual Reproduction Challenges Evolution, Affirms Creation

Blog by Guest Writer ( October 5, 2018 )

One of the greatest challenges to the theory of evolution is to explain sexuality. How could sexual reproduction have emerged by random, natural processes from early life-forms practicing asexual reproduction? How could natural selection evolve two versions of a species: essentially identical except for reproductive organs? When the data is analyzed, a creation perspective may make more sense.

Multifaceted Symbiosis Points to Creation

Blog by Hugh Ross ( September 24, 2018 )

Nature is filled with examples of mutualistic symbiosis—a relationship in which dissimilar species benefit from the association. Obligatory mutualistic symbiosis is where two or more dissimilar organisms depend upon one another for survival. A recently conducted field experiment reveals one of the most complex and multifaceted examples of obligatory mutualistic symbiosis ever discovered. This discovery challenges biological evolution but affirms biblical creation.
