Ten: Myths about Creation.
An excellent off-site article published by Answers in Genesis. At the
end of each section the article contains supporting links for
additional discussion of that topic. Here is a list of the top ten
myths. This article link was posted on November 23, 2018
Myth 10: Creationists don't
believe species change
Myth 9: Intelligent design is creationism Myth 8: The Bible is not a science textbook Myth 7: Creationists have a narrow / literal view of the Bible Myth 6: Creation has been disproven Myth 5: Creationists are anti-science Myth 4: There's no evidence for creation Myth 3: Creationists deny the laws of nature Myth 2: Creationists ignore the evidence for evolution Myth 1: Creationists want creationism taught in public schools and evolution thrown out A Brief Summary of Creation Week in Table Form, Genesis 1:1-2:3.

‘distant starlight problem’ is sometimes used as an argument against
biblical creation. People who believe in billions of years often claim
that light from the most distant galaxies could not possibly reach
earth in only 6,000 years. However, the light-travel–time argument
cannot be used to reject the Bible in favour of the big bang, with its
billions of years. This is because the big bang model also
has a light-travel–time problem." Go

Man, fossils, and time
Evolution: an ancient pagan idea. By Paul James-Griffiths. The author documents the fact that pagan thinkers long ago supposed the earth came about many great ages ago. Modern evolutionary thought simply perpetuates the myths of the ancients. This off-site article was linked on WordExplain November 19, 2015. While
studying ancient history at University, I came across the pagan beliefs
about origins. It was this study that caused me first to question
evolution and the vast ages given for the Universe. It was later, after
many years of scientific investigation, that I finally broke free from
a liberal understanding that sought to harmonise naturalism with
biblical Christian faith.
How old are the rocks? The Clock in the Rock. Answers in Genesis Radioisotopic Dating of Rocks in the Grand Canyon. By Andrew Snelling, Ph.D. "The radioisotope methods, long touted as irrefutably dating the earth as countless millions of years old, have repeatedly failed to give reliable and meaningful absolute ages for Grand Canyon rocks." Date of the article - June 1, 2005. This link was added to WordExplain on July 8, 2014. Debunking Evolutionists' Non-Answer Answer to the Question of the Cambrian Explosion: "Cambrian Explosion Was the Culmination of Cascading Causes, Evolutionists Claim" - by Dr. Elizabeth Mitchell, Oct. 12, 2013. Answers in Genesis. Cambrian Explosion Disproves Evolution, by Will Hoyt. The "Cambrian Explosion" is an utter embarrassment to evolutionists. Its astounding presence is a silent yet vocal testimony to the logical and scientific bankruptcy of the religious myth we call evolution. The Pigs Took It All, by Marvin L. Lubenow. This article originally was taken from the appendix of Bones of Contention, written by the same author (Grand Rapids, 1992, 1st ed.), pp. 247-266. The present extract has been revised. This entry indicates the incredibly subjective and unscientific nature of radiometric dating as it is practiced by scientists and paleontologists. Opening
Paragraph: "A popular myth is that radioactive dating methods
confirm the geologic time-scale and the concept of human evolution. The
methods appear so impressive that many Christians accept them as
evidence that the earth is very old. The best way to expose this myth
is to study the dating of the East African KBS Tuff strata and the
famous fossil KNM-ER 1470."
Concluding Paragraph: "In the ten-year controversy over the dating of one of the most important human fossils ever discovered, the pigs won. The pigs won over the elephants. The pigs won over K-Ar dating. The pigs won over 40Ar-39Ar dating. The pigs won over fission-track dating. They won over paleomagnetism. The pigs took it all. But in reality, it wasn’t the pigs that won. It was evolution that won. In the dating game, evolution always wins." WordExplain note: Few lay people will have the patience to wade through the semi-technical data cited by Lubenow. For those who might wish a much quicker explanation of some of the same data discussed above, namely, the Potassium-Argon (K-Ar) dating fiasco, see the following video by Chris Johnson, entitled, Radiometric Dating Flaws (Potassium-Argon). The video is not professionally done, and for that we beg the reader's pardon. Nevertheless, Mr. Johnson has a point and he cites evidence. Radiometric dating is extremely subjective. The
Supposed Consistency of Evolution's Long Ages, by Michael
Oard. Answers in Genesis. The opening two paragraphs read as follows:
Perhaps the most challenging aspect of the theory of evolution is the apparent consistency of its corollary, the long-age geological system. Evolutionists and other long-agers challenge critics with such statements as: “You may disbelieve the results of one dating method, but how can you disbelieve when several independent dating methods all arrive at approximately the same date?” “The radiometric dates and the age of the fossils generally agree.” “Evolution shows such consistent change of organisms with time, how can you doubt such a precise pattern?” “All dinosaurs died at the end of the Cretaceous Period.” It appears initially that they have a very strong case. But, a deeper look gives a different picture when we ask, how is this uniformity achieved? Crudely put, consistent dates are obtained by fudging data that have a high degree of variability or error. I believe most of this adjustment is internal and worked out before publication, but enough has been published to indicate that this practice is pervasive.

What Are Some of the Best Flood Evidences? This page includes a brief video by Andrew Snelling, Ph.D. in Geology. He discusses the evidences for a world-wide flood, the Flood of Noah (Gen. 7; Gen. 8). This link added to WordExplain on July 8, 2014. The six evidences he cites are as follows: (1) Sea creatures buried high
in mountains on the continents.
(2) Rapidly-buried plants and animals. (3) Rapidly deposited sediment layers right across the continents. (4) Long transport distances of sediments. (5) Rapid or no erosion between sediment layers. (6) Whole rock layer sequences deposited rapidly in quick succession.  Man
