The chances for life on this planet are 100 percent. I have almost no doubt about it. [1] These words were spoken by Steven Vogt, an astronomer at the University of California in regards to his team’s ‘discovery’ of the exoplanet Gliese 581g. The announcement of this planet was widely reported due to the fact [...]

Many secular scientists believe that the elements that comprise the human body, such as carbon, iron, and calcium, had their origin in large stars which then exploded and spread these heavy elements throughout the galaxy. Carl Sagan put it this way, “A star is a kind of cosmic kitchen inside which atoms of hydrogen are [...]

Our belief about creation is very important. Many of us are familiar with the conflict of Biblical creation with evolution. But what are some of the other important aspects about our doctrine of Creation? Why is it important to have a Biblical belief about creation and reject evolutionary philosophy? In this episode, Pastor Len Hendrix [...]

Did you know that secular scientists believe that many of the elements in our bodies came from exploded stars? This belief is a natural consequence of the big bang theory. In this episode I discuss the so called “cosmic connectivity” between us and stars. (Please click here for a related blog post.) I also briefly [...]

Carl Sagan and Revelation 4:8 The opening sentence of Carl Sagan’s famous book Cosmos is, “The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be.” [1] This statement reflects the naturalistic worldview of its author. Naturalism holds that the physical universe is all that exists. All things that exist in the cosmos are [...]

Most scientists agree that the universe has the “appearance” of design. That is, although the physical constants of the universe appear finely tuned in order that life may exist, this is really the product of chance. It is by chance that the big bang resulted in a universe that makes life possible. They state that if [...]

There have been some interesting science stories in the news recently and in this episode, I review three news items that I thought worth discussing on the podcast. The first news item deals with an archaeological find in Nazareth. The second discusses the bones of “Ardi,” who some claim sheds light on human evolution. Finally, [...]
