Since I’ve already devoted two posts to my experience at the AiG conference, for your sake and mine, I will keep the rest of Ham’s comments short, with a brief comment after each one. There were a host of other rather disjointed things Ken Ham said during his presentation, but they all fell under the…
Yesterday, I discussed the first part of Ken Ham’s talk to the high school kids at the Answers in Genesis conference this past weekend in the town where I live. Today, I’d like to discuss the second part. Noah’s Ark After making his case that atheism was the same thing as evolution, that evolution was…
This past weekend, Ken Ham came to my hometown for an Answers in Genesis conference at a local church. I knew he was coming as far back as last May, when it was announced to the faculty at my former school that the whole school was going to get to attend the conference. Needless to…
In my final post of this week dedicated to Ken Ham and Answers in Genesis, I want to focus, not on science or Ken Ham’s Twitter trolls, but specifically on the truly muddled and confusing way Answers in Genesis even presents the Bible itself. The Evangelical Dilemma with Genesis 1-11 and the Book of Revelation…
As we continue in our Answers in Genesis Week on my blog this week, in anticipation to the appearance of Ken Ham at the up and coming AiG conference in my town this weekend, I want to share a short article by Dr. Andrew Snelling, a contributor to the AiG enterprise. The February 2, 2016…
In my last post, I discussed Ken Ham’s recent comment regarding Neanderthals. Contrary to every single bit of scientific, genetic evidence, Ken Ham claimed—without any evidence whatsoever—that Neanderthals were simply human beings who dispersed after the Tower of Babel (circa 2250 BC according to AiG), whose genetic make-up mutated enough to give them a unique…
In the countdown to Ken Ham’s visit to my town next week, I am making a concentrated effort to write a few more posts on the claims that the folks at Answers in Genesis routinely make. Today, I want to comment on Ken Ham’s February 19th post about Neanderthals, entitled, “Neanderthals—Descendants of Adam.” Genomes and…
I’m not a fan of Jay-Z, but I feel the title just fit. (If you don’t know to what I’m referring, don’t worry. If you do, you owe to me to share this post on your Facebook and Twitter). In any case, next week, Ken Ham is going to be speaking at an Answers in…
In the past two posts, we’ve looked at Richard Dawkins’ attempt to discredit the five “proofs” for God’s existence that medieval theologian Thomas Aquinas came up with. We saw that instead of trying to even understand the actual arguments Aquinas was making, Dawkins chose to simply scoff and dismiss them. This tactic is actually surprisingly…
Yesterday, we looked at how Richard Dawkins failed to understand Thomas Aquinas’ first three “proofs” for the existence of God. Instead of even attempting to understand them, Dawkins simply dismissed them as “vacuous.” As we continue on with Aquinas’ final two “proofs,” we will see Dawkins’ dismissive reaction and inability to understand are on display…
