Cambrian Explosion Alive and Well

A new editorial in GSA Today is claiming that secular scientists should cease using the term “Cambrian Explosion.”1 It’s not for any particularly revealing scientific discovery but for “societal reasons.”


Plate Beneath China Verifies Rapid Subduction

Scientists have identified a large slab of cold oceanic lithosphere1 dipping far beneath China.2 The newly imaged plate is presumably a leftover piece of ocean that was consumed as the Indian subcontinent collided with Asia, forming the Himalayan Mountains.


Cretaceous Bird Beak Pecks Holes in Evolution

Rock layers in China have yielded yet another strange bird. Two features in its partial skull—the only parts found—make it both a unique discovery and a challenge to nature-only origins stories.


Sahelanthropus Femur Likely Makes It a Chimp

Nearly 20 years ago, a team of anthropologists presented the finding of a fossil skull that was very chimp-like in many respects.1 However, the skull had several unusual features that led to the claim that the ape-like creature was an early bipedal ancestor from the early stages of human evolution.


Flood Buried Dinosaurs with a Bang

Scientists from the University of Bath have found that dinosaurs were thriving up to the end of the Cretaceous.1 This discovery conflicts with earlier claims that dinosaurs were declining in number towards the top of the Cretaceous System.1 However, these findings fit the predictions from a global Flood scenario.
