February 25, 2008, marks two years since the founder of the Institute for Creation Research, Dr. Henry M. Morris, passed into glory. In honor of this man of God, we have adapted the following article written by Dr. Morris, which so clearly states the principles upon which this organization is based.

In your kitchen you start a three-minute egg timer and a 60-minute hourglass simultaneously and then leave. You return a short while later to find the hourglass fully discharged but not the egg timer! Something must be wrong with at least one of the two timers.

Without a doubt, Earth is round, or nearly so. Using careful measurements from the ground and observations from space we can be certain it is essentially a sphere, with only minor bulging near the equator.

The Institute for Creation Research has become known for its attention to research. It's important to recognize that we don't try to "prove the Bible." The Bible doesn't need our help. Whether or not there is evidence, the Bible is true! In our research we assume the Bible, and conduct our investigations in that framework.
