One of the most common strategems for reconciling evolution and the Bible that I've run into is the Day-Age hypothesis, the claim that each of the seven 'days' of the book of Genesis represents one of God's days, which doesn't have to be 24 hours long, but could be millions or billions of years instead. All you have to do is stretch the timescale of Genesis to fit the geological timescale, and voilà, it's a perfect metaphorical description of...

AUTHOR: G.R. MortonSOURCE: Answers in ScienceCOMMENTARY: Allen MacNeillFirst, today is the 150th anniversary of the original publication of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species. So many people have written about this event that it would be superfluous for me to write about it here. However, some of what has been written about the Origin lately, mostly by creationists and supporters of "intelligent design", is that Darwin's theory of evolution by...

The Onion on the bastardized version of “On the Origin of Species”:  Cameron Distributing Darwin “I’ve seen the commentary, and it’s simply not on the level of, say, Eve Plumb’s introduction to Rousseau’s Emile.” “I bet Charles Darwin is lying still in his grave, because he is dead.”

Here's a list of books I recommend about evolution: On the Evidence for Evolution Books that show why Evolution is true. 1. Why Evolution Is True by Jerry Coyne. This is a magnificent book that gives several highly convincing lines of evidence to show that Evolution is true. 2. The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution by Richard Dawkins. Another excellent work that presents the evidence for evolution (albeit with some different evidences than the last book). Especially interesting is Dawkins' replies to creationist canards about the lack of transitional fossils. 3. The Making of the Fittest: DNA and the Ultimate Forensic ... Read Full Story

I like the Darwin fish. To me, it is a healthy pro-science statement. Of course, I acknowledge that it also carries an anti-religion connotation for some people due to its design (i.e., borrowing from the Christian design which came first) and the inevitable conflict between religion and science. I'm also aware that some people view displaying a Darwin fish as an act of symbolic aggression . More than just being an interesting symbol that is interpreted in diverse ways, the Darwin fish exposes the scope of Christian privilege and says volumes about the plight of nonbelievers. I do not have a Darwin fish on ... Read Full Story

Transcript of today's show: Ken Ham’s Creation Museum planetarium uses blue supergiant stars to prove that the universe is very young — only thousands of years old. Dr. Jason Lisle, astrophysicist for the museum, claims that because blue supergiant stars go supernova after a couple million of years, our Milky Way galaxy could not be billions of years old, since all of its stars would have self-destructed by now.

Today's story: Protests were held recently outside the office of Sir Peter Vardy , a British multimillionaire who has funded several state schools and colleges accused of promoting creationism in their curriculum. The protests are a reaction to a new Vardy school, the All Age Academy , where students as young as four years old would be taught creation theory. British parents are outraged. Sir Vardy shows no sign of changing his plans. [source: The Guardian] Listen to the 1-minute broadcast of this story [mp3] Shelley Greene, Ph.D., comments: Which is it Mr. Vardy? Are you funding creationism or not? Plenty of reports reveal ... Read Full Story
