ICR Featured in The Dallas Morning News
The Institute for Creation Research was featured on the front page of the August 15, 2014, edition of The Dallas Morning News in an article that contrasts the evolutionary story with young-earth creationism.1
The report by Morning News' Scott Farwell contained the standard evolutionary claimsthat the universe is 13.8 billion years old, the earth is 4.5 billion years old, and humans split from chimpanzees and gorillas about 4 million to 7 million years ago.
But as Farwell reported, "Young-earth creationists like those at ICR argue that everything in the known universe began 6,000 to 10,000 years ago."1 He included statements from ICR's scientists about numerous compelling evidences for recent creation such as galaxies' spiral winding problem, genetic mutation clocks, and soft tissues found in fossils. But Farwell ended the article with a quote from SMU professor Dr. Ronald Wetherington, who claimed ICR scientists "are not scientists" and that they "cherry-pick data" to justify the Genesis account.

The pro-evolution scientists are doing something very curious. In order to explain species adaptation they have come up with a novel solution. They claim that the animal or whatever, in needing to adapt, actually created the adaptation itself. You see there is a gap that none of them can satisfy. They can't let God take credit so they imply heavily that the animal did it themselves.
Next time you watch a science show on PBS listen for it. You will not be disappointed. In fact, it would make a great drinking game.
To be a “real” scientist you have to believe in evolution and global warming, even if you don’t practice real science. Just ask Michael Mann.
And the irony is all the supernatural things they have to believe in the evolution religion:
1. That the universe created itself from nothing, with no evidence, of course;
2. That stupendously complex single-celled life spontaneously generated, a miracle disproved by Pasteur in his Law of Biogenesis, that life begets life, with no evidence, of course;
3. That life made itself more and more complex, with no evidence, of course.
In short, it takes far more faith to believe in evolutionists’ supernatural occurrences than in God’s creation.
You’re making the assumption that God’s creation and evolution are mutually exclusive, and an incorrect assumption that your three statements are true.
