Doug Wilson rightly observes the idiocy of atheistic anger in this quip from “Letters from a Christian Citizen”:
“You want to rage, but there is no object for your anger. There is no wall to punch. Because above you and them is only sky. You want to rail against God, but He is not there. But that [...]

Adam, Eve, and Creation
By Rick Hogaboam On June 7, 2011 · Leave a Comment · In Apologetics, Biblical Studies, Creation/Evolution, Genesis, Questions & Answers
Very brief post here. I have been asked my thoughts on the modern debate concerning creation and whether Adam and Even were literal beings who literally sinned in the way the narrative of Genesis records.
First off, I am aware that recent scientific data has led some to suggest that there needed to be at [...]
Bill Gates: “DNA is like a computer program, but far, far more advanced than any software we’ve ever created”
This partly confirms the huge blindspot for self-organizational theorists who go on and on about how things have been arranged, but can’t explain the origin of information. DNA is like software much more complex than anything [...]
For a long time I have believed that one of the motivating forces behind our space program is to attempt to prove Darwinism by seeing it on other planets. This article confirms it to me.
Based on the geology of Mars’s northern plains, the new study suggests that bodies of water [...]
I read a piece on the BBC News website today titled “Space is the final frontier for evolution, study claims” and I thought I’d point something out here. I do not really intend to open up the “evolution vs. intelligent design vs. young earth creationism” debates, I just [...]
You can find the story here. Dr. Waltke was featured on the BioLogos website with a video affirming evolution as consistent within an inerrant view of creation. He affirmed the historicity of Adam and Eve as historical beings and suggests that evolution was the means of bringing them about.
Following the dismissal [...]
Reflecting Back on Humanity and Sin

Well, my H&S class begins next week through Reclaiming the Mind Ministries. I got a jump-start today by looking at the first lesson.
Why Did God Create Man?
Question 1: What is the chief and highest end of man? Man’s chief and highest end is to glorify God and enjoy him forever. –Westminster Larger Catechism

Over at Biologos, there is a blog titled “The Light of Faith”. The writer talks about the importance of faith in connection with the “orderliness and consistency of God’s world”.
I thought it was important to add a clarifying thought or two in connection with the above, and so I posted the [...]

Well, I’m now a community blogger at Endued! As I read it, one of the key aims of Endued is to be a witness for the Lord Jesus to the surrounding culture. Hopefully, my musings will in some way help to advance this aim.
The context for my becoming a community blogger was my recent [...]
It seems to have been a quieter time recently in the ongoing discussions, debates, and wars of words about the origins of life. But recently I’ve been wondering how much Christians with different perspectives are in communication with each other.
I wonder this especially about those who defend a literal, young-earth reading of the Genesis [...]
In my latest edition of the Church Leader’s Report (churchleaders.com) were included some interesting stats:
Only 39% of American adults say they “believe in the theory of evolution.”
25% say they don’t believe in evolution, and another 36% don’t have an opinion either way.
78% of likely voters believe biology teachers should [...]
