Apparently, evolution (and natural selection) can do almost anything:

An allegedly vital piece of animal evolution was first discovered in 1984 in Scotland. Conventional scientists suggested the fossil of Westlothiana lizziae, a lizard-like reptile, is an example of an early stem tetrapod.

When the New Horizons space probe captured images of Pluto and its large moon Charon as it flew by in 2015, conventional scientists were surprised by the small number of craters in Charon’s southern hemisphere.¹ This suggested a relatively young surface, despite Charon’s presumed age of over four billion years. How could they account for this?

Dr. James J. S. Johnson, chief academic officer and associate professor of apologetics for ICR’s School of Biblical Apologetics (SOBA), joined his Lord in heaven on the night of July 19, 2025. A long-time member of the ICR family, he will be greatly missed.

In the 1990s, Australian paleontologists discovered fossil frog bones during a dig in Murgon, Queensland.¹ This new species of frog—Litoria tylerantiqua—was subjectively dated to be 55 million years old.
