News
     During May, Answers in Genesis boldly proclaimed that they were taking dinosaurs back from the grips of the evolutionists, and putting them in their rightful place, just 6,000 years ago.  May is now over, and a quick check of the science news show how empty their claim is.  Dinosaurs are firmly rooted where they belong, which is more than 65 million years ago.  AiG may have managed to encourage and rally their own supporters, but scientists are unmoved by their lack of real scientific evidence.

     Many of the creation organizations highlighted living fossils during May and the first part of June.  At first glance, this appears to support their cause, but a look below the surface reveals that this argument is very weak and does not support a young earth.  For more on this topic, check out Living Fossils.  When it comes to living fossils, much attention is given to the plesiosaur, with people pointing to Loch Ness, and the Lake Champlain monster.  Even if a living plesiosaur were found, it would not be evidence for a young earth.  Read Plesiosaurs - What If? for more.

Featured Article - The Answers Book
     The Featured Article will highlight one article or section of the website each month. You have probably heard of the book by Ken Ham titled "The Answers Book."  It covers what he calls twenty of the most asked questions about the Bible and creation.  When you examine it, it provides no threat to old earth belief.  Arguments for a young earth are based on flawed scientific thinking, or simple manipulation of the data to support their cause.  Old earth believers need to be aware of these flawed arguments, so they can answer these questions correctly.    To learn more about the book which has a firm grip upon non-scientific minds in the young earth community,  click here.

Featured Contributed Article - Woodmorappe & Dating
     In this section, we will feature articles from OEM associates, and articles which have been submitted to OEM. This month, Dr. Kevin Henke exposes the bad scientific principles of John Woodmorappe.  Woodmorappe is one of the most quoted young earth creationists on the topic of radiometric dating.  See how he has twisted the data to make it support a young earth.   Click here to read this article.  Dr. Henke is not associated with Answers In Creation, nor is his religious position clear.  However, as a practicing scientist, he uses science correctly.  Dr. Henke has granted permission to post the article on Old Earth Ministries.
