14 Evolutionary ���Dead Ends��� Humanity Must Avoid?

What is the future of mankind? Well, that depends on your worldview! I recently saw a popular science article titled, ���New research maps 14 potential evolutionary dead ends for humanity and ways to avoid them.��� What are these ���dead ends��� we must avoid?

Well, these ���dead ends��� are defined as ���evolutionary traps��� humanity can get stuck in that initially began with innovation but can, if we don���t escape them, lead to the end of the Anthropocene (the supposed current geological age...

The New Answers Academy Building Is Almost Ready

In 2017, Answers in Genesis founded our biblical worldview Christian school, Answers Academy, here in Northern Kentucky. Well, the Lord has blessed that school, and it has grown���grown so much they won���t fit in their current facility much longer. But we are so excited that the Lord provided a building that will serve as the Answers Academy building and the new AiG headquarters���and it���s nearly ready for the students to move in!

This new facility will allow the school to quadruple in size a...

The Writing Is on the Wall

As you likely know, God has led a dynamic young leader to our ministry, Martyn Iles from Australia. He was recently promoted to Executive CEO (don���t worry���I���m not retiring. I wil continue serving as Founder CEO) and is working alongside me in the Executive department as we do our best to carry out the vision for this ministry God has laid on our hearts. Martyn has a real burden to equip people to be able to stand in this increasingly secularized anti-Christian culture.

Just as I was writin...

Celebrating 30 Years of Answers in Genesis Ministry

Last week at the Answers Center at the Ark Encounter, a number of Answers in Genesis staff and AiG friends, as well as our kids, their spouses, and our grandkids, joined us for a celebration of the 30th anniversary of Answers in Genesis. Yes, it���s been 30 years (this December) since the ministry was officially founded. And it was such a joy to celebrate everything the Lord has done over these three decades!

Now, I say the ministry is 30 years old, but actually the ministry started in our home ...

Did Crabs Evolve from Ocean to Land and Back Again (and Again, and Again, and Again)?

���Crabs are unique and continuously evolving animals, often moving their lifestyles out of marine environments for other environments to do so.��� Now, I certainly do agree that crabs are unique (God���s creativity is astounding!), but are they continuously evolving? Well, evolutionists are forced to conclude that they must be, because according to a new study, true crabs evolved to leave their marine environment a stunning 7 to 17 times!

Yes, you read that right���7 to 17 times! Mathematically...

Don���t Miss Christmas at the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter

In just over one week, our Creation Museum and Ark Encounter grounds will burst into color! Hundreds of thousands of Christmas lights at each location will awe guests touring the attractions for ChristmasTown and ChristmasTime. It takes our grounds crew four months of very hard work to turn the gardens and grounds into a winter wonderland���and we can���t wait for you to experience it!

Just take a look at a few photos of what���s coming.

It���s a wonderful experience, and many families come each ...

What���s the Connection Between Eugenics and Evolution?

The history of eugenics is often overlooked in American history. Few people know that from the beginning of the twentieth century until around WW II, very powerful eugenics societies and laws existed that tried to ensure the next generation was ���well born��� by sterilizing (sometimes forcibly!) those deemed ���unfit��� to pass along their genes. Eugenics was even taught to public (government) high school students by one of the main biology textbooks used in the 1920s. Where did these ideas co...

Answers in Genesis Appoints New Executive CEO: Martyn Iles

Editor���s note: This article was adapted from a news release that was recently distributed to the media.

Answers in Genesis is excited to announce that the AiG board has unanimously voted to promote Martyn Iles to the position of Executive CEO of Answers in Genesis under Ken Ham. Ken Ham remains Founder CEO. Ken has no plans to retire but will continue in his oversight role of the entire ministry and in his dynamic impactful speaking and writing ministry.

In May 2023, Australian Martyn Iles joine...

Just as God Brought the Animals to Noah . . .

I was recently giving a secular writer/reporter a tour through the Ark Encounter and answering numerous questions, and I was asked how we found all the people who work at Answers in Genesis, the Creation Museum, and the Ark Encounter. After all, from the quality of the life-size Ark and all the exhibits, it���s obvious that we have very (very!) gifted individuals who work here. So how did we get such top-quality artists and fabricators?

���Just as God brought the animals to Noah, so he brought a...

���Pastrix��� Claims Eve Made the Right Choice, So We Must Trust Women Who Choose Abortion

Yesterday we looked at a blasphemous message preached by a Presbyterian ���pastrix,��� Rebecca Todd Peters, in which she claims that God lied to Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. Yes, she accused God of lying, honored Satan (the serpent) as essentially being the ���good guy��� who told the truth, and elevated Eve as humanity���s hero who whisked in moral agency. But as I said in yesterday���s post, the message somehow manages to get even worse than all that!

Peters now ties all of this blasphe...
