What Is Happening? Ken Ham and Richard Dawkins Agree on Something!

When you think of people I agree with, famed atheist and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins is probably not the first person who comes to mind! And yet, I do agree with statements Dawkins made in a recent interview. But is it really so amazing that Ken Ham and Richard Dawkins agree on something? It���s not. But, first, what do we agree on?

���There Are Only Two Sexes���

A recent news headline stated, ���Richard Dawkins declares there are only two sexes as matter of science: ���That's all ther...

Ministry Update: Praise God for How He���s Using Answers VBS to Change Lives

The end of this year marks 30 years of the Answers in Genesis ministry���praise the Lord! For three decades, God has been faithful not only to meet our needs but to use us for his glory, to equip and strengthen the church, and to reach the lost with the gospel. Just one example is through our powerful evangelistic tool, Answers VBS (vacation Bible school) outreach.

This teaching roots them in the truth and authority of God���s Word and the gospel message, giving them a truly biblical worldview.

What Evolves at AiG?

OK, I���m going to shock you all! AiG is ���evolving���! Yes, I used the ���e��� word!

Now, I���m using the word evolve in the manner it���s used when someone says something like, ���His company evolved from starting in his garage as a small business to a major corporation today.���

Before I explain how AiG is evolving, let me state some things very clearly.

God���s Word never changes. Consider the following verses:

���The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever....

Why Do Christians Get So Emotional About How I Interpret ���Day��� in Genesis?

As I���ve spoken and written over the years on topics regarding creation, I find many Christians agree with me about evolution, but they vehemently disagree when it comes to the age of the earth. And they don���t just disagree���many get very upset and quite emotional at times over my insistence that the days of creation are ordinary 24-hour days and that the earth can���t be billions of years old but is only about 6,000 years old. Why all this emotion?

Well, I don't find such people getting so ...

What Should Christians Think About Critical Race Theory?

���There is only one race, the human race.��� Now that sounds like something I would say, doesn���t it? Indeed, it���s something I (and other AiG speakers) have said for decades, based on the biblical truth that we���re all descended from Adam and Eve���and science confirms that. But that particular statement I just quoted was actually made by a medical geneticist at Johns Hopkins University.

You see, a report issued by a panel convened by the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and...

Take a 60-Second Tour of Our Attractions

Since thousands of families are now beginning to pour into the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum as our busy spring season begins, I thought I���d share with you some ���60-second tours��� of the Ark Encounter and the Creation Museum. These videos highlight just some of what we offer at these family-friendly, God-honoring attractions. But there is so much more at these fun-filled family facilities.

Should Christians Send Their Kids to Public Schools?

Should Christians send their children to public schools? Now, first I want to say it���s the parents��� decision as to where they send their kids to be educated. And I do recognize in a fallen world there are all sorts of family issues (e.g., single-parent families) for varied reasons. However, at the very minimum, each Christian should build their thinking on God���s Word in regard to the training of children and do the best they possible can with much prayer and God���s help���and hopefully t...

Despite the Big Bang, ���Cosmic Origins Remain a Mystery���

Did you know that evolutionary scientists can���t explain where space, time, matter, and energy came from? You might think, ���Yes they have���the big bang!��� But, by their own admission, the big bang model doesn���t tell us anything about how everything came from nothing. Rather, this model seeks to explain what happened immediately after the supposed big bang. That���s why a recent headline proclaimed, ���The Big Bang says nothing about the creation of the cosmos.���

The article accompanying ...

Let���s Sink ���Bathtub��� Arks!

I know that what I call ���bathtub arks��� (like the one in the picture below) seen in many children���s books and on the walls of some Sunday-, Christian-, or home-school classrooms look cute, but I do want to challenge everyone by stating I believe they can be dangerous in a certain way.

Now why would I say that? After all, there are bathtub ark models in gift stores all over the world, and arks overloaded with land animals���including giraffes with their necks sticking out the chimney���looki...

New Ministry to Veterans Opens Just Three Minutes from the Ark Encounter

I���m excited to announce that a brand-new ministry has opened its doors just three minutes from the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky. Patriots Landing, a Christian ministry enhancing the lives of veterans and their families, specifically chose Northern Kentucky, and Williamstown particularly, as their ministry home because of the proximity to the Ark. We hope many of our guests will drop by to see and support this ministry.

Here���s how the founder of this ministry describes the mission ...
