  • "WE DON'T know what we are talking about" - Nobel Laureate David Gross  By : MStrauss
    Science has reached an enormous impasse. From biology to physics, astronomy to genetics, the scientific community is reaching the limits of understanding which often presage a complete rethinking of long-accepted theories. So characteristic of this new apex of modern arrogance is the inability to comprehend the obvious in physics: That we don't know what we are talking about.

  • Are Those Diamonds Real?  By : David Cowley
    In some cases, people actually are after fake diamonds. Cubic zirconias, or manmade stones, are very difficult to tell from the real thing at least to the untrained eye. Some see absolutely nothing wrong with saving themselves some money by purchasing these if all they're after is the flash and brilliance of the stone. Of course, the difficulty in telling apart the fake from the real may save you some dollars but will make it all the more difficult to avoid being fooled. And for most, they want real diamonds in that engagement ring or earrings that will be a Christmas gift or whatever other piece they're shopping for.

  • Big Bang Booming - Back To The Future  By : Michael Strauss
    Theoretical cosmologists spend much of their time perfecting what is now known as the 'Big Bang' theory. This concept originates from ideas percolating in the minds of scientists, theologians and astronomers down through the ages. However, much of what they consider as proof for the 'Big Bang' is dependent upon uncontrolled experimentation that is molded to meet their expectations.

    Then God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. This ancient description of the cr...

  • Desert Problem For Young Earth Creation Science  By : Greg Neyman
    Young-earth creationists have a problem. According to their creation model, all the fossil-bearing rock layers in the world need to be created during the Flood of Noah.
