A team of French experts in paleoenvironments has discovered algae and several bits of marine life that are completely encased in amber, a hard substance thought to originate from hardened tree sap. Amber is renowned for preserving exquisitely detailed fossils, often of insects.

Genes could be thought of as brick molds, used to construct materials for building the physical structures of living organisms. They carry the codes to help make proteins, which then make up different cells that are combined together to form mega-structures called tissues.

Just weeks after the British Humanist Association unveiled plans for “No God” ads on London bendy-buses,¹ the American Humanist Association (AHA) is starting a similar campaign to run during the holiday season.

Our cells are amazing places that contain countless molecular machines all working together to perform multiple and important functions simultaneously.

An international team of geneticists recently set out to explore in more detail the evolutionary relationship between humans and chimpanzees. Despite their assumption that man and chimp share a common ancestor, their findings are actually more consistent with the creation model.
