Does the Probability for ETI = 1? Publication by Hugh Ross ( December 3, 2007 ) Earlier this fall (September 25) I had a three-minute debate on Mancow’s Morning Madhouse, a nationally syndicated radio show, on the topic “Is there scientific evidence for intelligent life in the universe?” My debate opponent was Amir Aczel, a nationally known mathematician and best-selling author. One of Aczel’s books is titled Probability 1: The Book that Proves There Is Life in Outer Space. Chemistry
Moist Greenhouse Threshold Doomsday Blog by Hugh Ross ( March 11, 2019 ) Considerable political and scientific discussion today concerns the possible effects of global warming. Not much attention, however, has been given to potential future water loss—in other words, death by drying out. A major reason why Earth’s water loss has not been publicized is due to large uncertainties in water loss models. A recent paper in the Astrophysical Journal has now brought a measure of certainty to Earth’s inevitable future water loss.1 Is there reason to worry? Design

Cell’s Metabolism Economized for Design Blog by Fazale “Fuz” Rana ( November 15, 2023 ) During my freshman year of college, I took two classes in economics: microeconomics and macroeconomics. (I aced both courses, by the way.) Those courses were so much fun that I contemplated becoming an economics major. I’m not sure what the appeal was. Perhaps I was fascinated (and still am) by the idea that mathematical principles […] Biochemistry
Oxygen Rises Just Before Life Arrives Publication by Hugh Ross ( February 5, 2007 ) Deep-sea sediments support the assertion of RTB’s creation model that a supernatural Designer transformed Earth from an uninhabitable state to one supportive of human life. Abundant oxygen ranks as one of the most essential requirements for animal life. However, until 600 million years ago, Earth’s deep oceans contained very little oxygen compared to their current levels. Studies of iron ratios from deposits in Newfoundland reveal that the oxygen content of the deep ocean dramatically increased 580 million years ago, a mere 5 million years before large, structurally complex Ediacaran organisms (which lived on the sea floor) appeared. Such results comport well with a model positing that the God of the Bible transformed Earth to support more-complex organisms and then quickly introduced those organisms into the biosphere. Evolution
If God Created All Things, Then Who Created God? Publication by Kenneth Samples ( October 1, 2007 ) This question is posed by small children, by college students, and by leaders of atheist societies.
