Karyotypic and allelic diversity within the canid baramin (Canidae)
The genetic diversity within dogs is greater than natural selection and random mutation would allow. Did God design genetic mechanisms to create diversity within biblical kinds?

The Best Genetic Computer Program in the World
Scientists begin to unravel the splicing code

The alleged ‘backwardly wired’ retina versus Dawkins
Dawkins’ latest book The Greatest Show on Earth purports to provide the proof of evolution. A new discovery further vindicates our refutation, The Greatest Hoax on Earth?

What! … no potatoes?
Governments are recognising the need to preserve the ‘wild’ varieties of our food plants, with their rich stores of information. Plant scientist Dr Don Batten explains how this highlights the fallacy of evolution.

Parrot of the night—NZ’s kakapo
The male kakapo’s amorous ‘booming’ can be heard kilometres away. But perhaps not for much longer, as the world’s heaviest parrot is an endangered species.

Did immune system antibody diversity evolve?
The various adaptive immune systems in the animal kingdom are all equally complex, yet with major discontinuities between them.

Fraud rediscovered
Ernst Haeckel, one of the most effective popularizers of evolution, fudged some drawings. Now the breathtaking extent of his deceit has been revealed.

Plant geneticist: ‘Darwinian evolution is impossible’
Ground-breaking research shows that evolution by mutations and natural selection just does not work.

Desert creatures inspire ‘SandBot’
Even specialty vehicles such as dune buggies can end up hopelessly mired in sand. So designers of Martian robotic vehicles are looking to copy the ‘effortless’ all-terrain locomotion of earthly lizards.

Patterns of change over time: organophosphorus resistance in the sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina
Most pesticide resistance is due to natural selection on pre-existing genes, not evolution. But some resistance arises from designed mechanisms that allow for adaptation in created life.

Bird breathing anatomy breaks dino-to-bird dogma
A new discovery about bird thighs and lungs seems to be the ‘nail in the coffin’ for the popular notion that they evolved from dinosaurs.

The slow, painful death of junk DNA
New findings undermine the idea that large stretches of our DNA are useless.
