Why Are Parents the #1 Enemy?

Why do they hate parents so much?

In the past few years, we���ve seen an increasing number of attacks on parents and parental rights. We���ve seen news items about school boards refusing to show parents what���s being taught in classrooms, states stripping away the rights of parents who have children identifying as ���trans,��� and teachers and others offering to be ���moms��� or ���dads��� to children who have parents who aren���t ���supportive��� of a gender transition or homosexual identity. ...

Construction Update: Headquarters Building

About two years ago, the Lord enabled Answers in Genesis to acquire the building Toyota used as its national headquarters here in Northern Kentucky (before they moved to Texas). The original part of the building was built for Cincinnati Bell and then expanded by Toyota. This is one of those ���once in a lifetime��� type situations.

We have already renovated the left third of the building for our Answers Academy Christian school. We are now renovating the rest of the building to move our offices ...

Are Christians ���Obsessed��� with Homosexuality?

Are Christians really obsessed with homosexuality?

This is an objection I will often see on social media when I post biblical teaching that conflicts with the LGBTQ worldview. Instead of engaging with my arguments, the comments section fills with accusations that Christians must be ���closet gays��� because of how much they ���obsess��� over LGBTQ.

Now, of course, that���s not the case���we���re not obsessed (honestly, there are many, many things we���d rather talk about!), but we do speak to thi...

Abortion Discriminates Against the Disabled

A sad irony exists in our culture. During the month of June, we constantly see messaging about being ���inclusive��� and ���tolerant��� of everyone, no matter their ���sexual orientation,��� gender, weight, skin shade, or other claimed ���identity.��� And yet, at the same time, many in our culture think that it���s perfectly acceptable to allow for the abortion (killing) of certain children in the womb simply because they are expected to be born with a disability of some kind. So ���inclusion��...

Finches, Tortoises, and More: Creationists Tour ���Evolution���s��� Iconic Islands

When most people hear ���Gal��pagos Islands,��� they automatically associate these remote islands with two things: Charles Darwin and his evolutionary beliefs. But AiG recently led a group of creationists to tour, experience, and learn from the Gal��pagos Islands and their amazing wildlife because, well, those islands belong to the Lord���not to evolution!

While at the Gal��pagos, our team filmed some exciting video content, so be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you won���t miss thes...

Children���s Hunger Fund Says Thank You to Our Answers VBS Churches

Each year we produce a phenomenal new Answers VBS program that thousands of churches use to teach tens of thousands of children about the Bible and the gospel message. And, as part of that program, we include a Missions Moment that encourages children to put their faith into action by giving toward a gospel-centered mercy ministry with our ministry partner Children���s Hunger Fund (CHF).

They also meet children���s and families��� spiritual needs through a network of local churches around the wo...

New App Predicts Future Climate Out to 2070

What will the weather be like in the year 2070? Well, apparently we can know that, according to an Australian-produced app called My Climate View. This online tool is designed to give ���long-term climate projections,��� specifically for farmers to help them understand how climate change will impact them over the coming decades. So what should farmers know about this?

Well, what the farmers (and everyone) need to understand is that such apps operate using man���s fallible programming based on fa...

God���s Special Effects at the Ark Encounter

We do see lots of rainbows at the Ark Encounter���which always reminds us of God���s promise in Genesis 9 that he will never judge again with a global flood. Now, what we don't see so often at the Ark is a rainbow around the sun. But a few days ago, Ark visitors were fascinated to see such a rainbow.

This halo-like rainbow around the sun is actually caused by sunlight refracting off ice crystals in cirrus clouds. The ice crystals act much like a prism. The light is bent at the right angle to sep...

Construction Update: Creation Museum���s Eden Zoo

The new zoo expansion at the Creation Museum has made lots of exciting progress in the last few weeks! I���m excited to share some behind-the-scenes photos with you of the ongoing construction.

The new, greatly expanded Eden Zoo will consist of a collection of exotic and domestic animals and a walkthrough wallaby enclosure. All of our animals will enjoy new exhibit areas, and many new animals are arriving.

Episcopal Church Releases New Pride Shield

���Though they know God���s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them��� (Romans 1:32, emphasis added). According to God���s Word, it is a sin to give approval to those who practice sin. And yet consider a recent choice by the Episcopal church to change their historic church shield to incorporate the pride colors. They are actively doing what God hates by approving of sin���the sin of pride, that of ma...
