  • Did you know that atheists must believe in miracles? How so? As plant biologist, Dr Don Batten, explains, there are many things in the universe that defy naturalistic explanations. That is to say, naturalistic explanations for these events actually contradict the very laws of physics, chemistry, genetics, and so on, that naturalism is built on! Believing these events happened naturally anyway—in spite of the evidence—is like believing in magic!

  • Is the Earth 4.5 billion years old? How can we measure age with certainty? What about radiometric dating methods—don’t they prove millions and billions of years? Does the age of the Earth even matter? Dr Mark Harwood discusses these topics and more, focusing especially on why an old Earth sits in conflict with the Bible, while also providing evidence for a younger age of the Earth.

  • One of the most-asked questions by both Christians and non-Christians alike is: ‘If God is good and loving, why is there so much evil and suffering in the world?’

    Is God UNABLE to do something about the situation (i.e. not all-powerful)? Or is He UNCARING (i.e. not all-good)? Or perhaps, as some critics claim, the presence of evil and suffering in the world are proof that God DOESN’T EXIST at all?

    The answer is ‘none of the above’! As Dr Mark Harwood explains, the biblical account of history makes sense of the world around us, including evil and suffering, and provides deep and meaningful hope through even the darkest personal pain.

  • How did 80 whales end up fossilized in the Chilean desert? What sort of conditions led to them: i) Swimming there in the first place, and ii) Getting RAPIDLY and DEEPLY buried so that they would fossilize?

    Can evolutionary history supply a satisfactory explanation for this—as well as the many other marine fossil graveyards all over the world? Or does the global Flood described in the Bible supply the best explanation for the evidence?

    And if the biblical Flood (or something like it) is, indeed a good explanation, why don’t geologists talk about it in the mainstream science journals?

    Get answers to these questions and more in this discussion with creationist geologist, Dr Tas Walker!

  • ‘Who created God?’ is an age-old question. Children sometimes ask it because they’re curious. But atheists more commonly ask it because they think it is a ‘gotcha’ question for Christians.

    So, is it really a ‘gotcha’ question? Does God—like everything else in the universe—need a cause? Or have atheists made an error in logic in assuming this?

    As Dr Don Batten explains, ‘Who created God?’ has a simple, logical answer—so Christians have no need to be intimidated! On the other hand, atheists have some explaining of their own to do when it comes to first causes!

  • Dinosaurs have long been used to popularise the idea that life on Earth has been evolving for hundreds of millions of years. Almost from the cradle, people are taught about ‘the age of the dinosaurs’, which is said to have ended over 65 million years ago—LONG before humans evolved.

    But what if this account is all wrong? What if there is evidence that dinosaur fossils are MUCH younger than claimed—and that these fascinating creatures shared the Earth with humans?!

    This would upset the entire evolutionary understanding of the fossil record! However, it would be perfectly consistent with the biblical account of history.

    Join Dr Don Batten for a discussion of evidence which shows that dinosaurs CAN’T be old.

  • Is Earth really the only planet in our vast universe that supports life? After all, there are trillions of other stars out there—and the number of planets is likely to be huge!

    For those who believe that everything created itself by natural processes, this is almost unthinkable. But for those who believe the Bible’s account of origins, it makes perfect sense.

    The question is, what does the evidence say?

    Join Dr Mark Harwood (who played a key role in the development of Australia’s national satellite system) for a discussion of exoplanets: What are they? How do astronomers find them? And above all, what would it take for one of them to become a contender to be ‘Earth 2.0’?

  • In 1980, Mount St. Helens (in Washington State, USA) erupted, blasting the top and side off the mountain.

    Then, as volcanoes do, it began to rebuild. In 1992, samples of new volcanic rock—KNOWN to be only about 10 years old—were dated using standard radiometric dating techniques.

    The results were eye-opening.

    Radiometric dating is not all it’s cracked up to be! In fact, it’s fair to ask: “Can radiometric dates be trusted at all?”

    Join geologist Dr Tas Walker for a discussion of the Mount St. Helens eruption and its aftermath, the fundamental flaws in radiometric dating methods, and the relevance of the age of the earth to people’s view of the world.

  • Everybody has heard—REPEATEDLY—that the earth is billions of years old. People are led to believe that this is an unassailable scientific fact.

    IT’S NOT! There are many people—including well-qualified scientists—who believe the evidence can be read QUITE DIFFERENTLY. In fact, there are numerous lines of evidence that contradict the millions/billions-of-years idea, and instead point to a relatively ‘young’ Earth!

    Join Dr Don Batten for an illuminating discussion of just FOUR such evidences. (And for many more evidences, see LINKS AND SHOW NOTES, below.)

  • If there really was a global flood—as the Bible has always said—then there should be abundant evidence of that fact, right?

    But what would that evidence look like?

    And who could be better placed to ‘see’ such evidence than a scientist who studies the way that floods and flowing water shapes landscapes?

    Join fluvial geomorphologist, Dr Ron Neller, for a fascinating discussion of the evidence that, over a 30-year period, eventually led him to conclude that there has, indeed, been a global flood on Earth—as the Bible describes.

  • Numerous people around the world claim to have seen UFOs or experienced interactions with aliens. An unbiased assessment of the evidence shows that something is certainly going on, and even the US government is now open about the fact that they are investigating!

    Is there a viable, naturalistic explanation? Are aliens physically visiting Earth—and if so, why? Or does the evidence point to a more supernatural explanation? Are these ‘aliens’ being completely honest with experiencers? And why do they seem so interested in, yet bothered by, Jesus Christ?

  • Atheists, parroted by Genesis compromisers, accuse biblical (young earth) creationists of believing in rapid evolution after the Ark landed.

    But the creationist model has always included rapid variation, and rejects fixity of species. And the thousands of Ark animals were land vertebrates; most of the millions of species were invertebrates and marine creatures.

  • Dinosaurs must have been Ark passengers. Most dinosaur fossils were formed by the Flood, and God told Noah to take two of every land vertebrate alive before the Flood. There were far fewer dinosaur kinds than species or genera, and the average size of a full-grown dino was about the size of a bison/buffalo. But Noah probably boarded much smaller juveniles a year before their growth spurt.

    The Ark had an equivalent volume of 340 semitrailers, so there was plenty of room for all the animals, water, and food.

  • This episode features Dr Robert Carter and Dr Jonathan Sarfati. They discuss in detail many of the facts surrounding the famous trial of Galileo and dismiss many of the associated urban myths (many of which are intentionally propagated by skeptics). They also delve more deeply into the intellectual background in the centuries leading up to Galileo, Copernicus, and Newton. Galileo was politically naïve, which got him into a lot of hot water. He was also overconfident about his ideas, while his opponents (correctly) pointed out the flaws in his reasoning. Yet, he did his best and most enduring work during those years of house arrest. The history of scientific progress and how it relates to Christian history is well worth studying and this episode will not let you down.

    Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) is often held up as the poster child of a supposed war between science and Christianity. The real history is much more interesting. The real clash was science vs. science, and the Church had the science of the day on its side. Several outstanding clergy-scientists in the Middle Ages discussed the earth’s rotation with no repercussions. Galileo’s observations were compatible with some geocentric models, such as the Capellan and Tychonian hybrid models. Kepler’s model with elliptical orbits was superior to all others of the day, including Galileo’s. The science that ended absolute geocentrism as a credible model occurred decades and even centuries after Galileo’s death.
