New Research Undermines Key Argument for Human Evolution

One of the leading arguments for human evolution from a shared common ancestor with apes is the "chromosome 2 fusion model." This hypothetical model proposes that the end-to-end fusion of two small ape-like chromosomes resulted in the human chromosome 2, which supposedly explains the difference in chromosome numbers between humans and great apes.1 A

Telomeres Get the Spotlight as Cellular Evidence for Intelligent Design

One of the recent cell biology and genetics projects at ICR has involved the compilation of years of research data on the cell’s telomere system in plants and animals, with an emphasis on its role in humans and in the intelligent design paradigm. The intriguing results of this extensive literature review…led by Dr. Jeffrey Tomkins in collaboration with Dr.


Templeton Prize Awarded to World-Famous Anti-Creationist

Every year, the Templeton Foundation awards more than one million dollars to an individual who in the foundation’s estimation has made a significant contribution to affirming spirituality.1 The Templeton Prize was first given in 1973 and in its early years was awarded to such high-profile religious leaders as Mother Teresa (1973), Billy Graham (1982), Chuck Colson (1993), and Bill Br

Extreme Cold Can Be an Inconvenient Truth: Botanical Design Ensures Plant Survival

Recently, the Institute for Creation Research acquired some property in Alaska that will enable its scientists to study the unique mechanisms in plants that allow them to live in extreme climates. The selection of available tree species (white spruce, alder, cottonwood, birch, and willow) provides a variety of unique cold tolerance systems in plants for studies in "extreme" intelligent design.
