  7. 31Do We Have Useless Organs? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 31Tonsils, the appendix, and the spleen are just a few examples of organs within the human body that many people refer to as "useless," but are they? The Creation Podcast host Trey Bowling sits down with ICR president Dr. Randy Guliuzza to determine whether or not these organs serve a purpose. Listen as Dr. Guliuzza—a medical doctor—explains how these organs function and point to a purposeful Designer.         More...23 min
  8. 32Seeing Stars At Impossible Distances | The Creation Podcast: Episode 32For millennia, mankind has looked at the stars in wonder. Technology has allowed us to study these magnificent creations, but we still have questions. A prominent issue is the distant starlight problem. Given the age of our planet, how are we able to see stars at such mind-bending distances? Listen in as host Trey Bowling and ICR physicist Dr. Jake Hebert discuss the matter. The answer may not be as cut and dry as you think!         More...22 min
  9. 33These Animals Are Masters of Disguise | The Creation Podcast: Episode 33From the leopard's spots to the butterfly's wings, many of our planet's creatures possess the ability to hide in plain sight.

Whether in the air, on the ground, or under the sea, you're sure to find what you're looking for as host Ivana Semidey and ICR Zoologist Dr. Frank Sherwin discuss this fascinating creature feature.         More...17 min
  10. 34Do Complex Systems Defy Evolution? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 34Which came first, the protein or the cell? They were intentionally created at the same time along with every essential component of the all-or-nothing systems of life on earth. However, the theory of evolution claims that all forms of life arose by chance over long periods of time – is that possible? Join host Trey Bowling and ICR paleobiochemist Dr. Brian Thomas as they define irreducible complexity, describe systems that qualify as all-or-nothing, and discuss how these biological necessities prove to be incompatible with evolutionary theory.         More...22 min
  11. 35How Old Is The Universe? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 35Many scientists claim that the universe is approximately 13.8 billion years old by reverse-engineering the Big Bang with the assumption that this theory is correct. How then do they explain the signs of youth in the earth, our solar system, and deep space? In this episode, host Ivana Semidey and ICR physicist Dr. Jake Hebert take a look at how phenomena like the earth's magnetic field, comets, distant starlight, spiral galaxies, and globular clusters provide evidence for a universe that is closer to 6,000 years old.         More...17 min
  12. 36Can Radioisotope Dating Be Trusted? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 36Carbon dating is a common method used to determine the ages of fossils and other materials, but carbon14 deteriorates quite quickly. How can it still be detected in things that are supposedly millions or billions of years old? With the expertise of ICR geologist Dr. Tim Clarey, host Trey Bowling investigates different dating methods used by scientists to see if the data tells a different story than the one told in textbooks.         More...26 min
  13. 37What About Transitional Fossils? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 37Transitional fossils supposedly contain evidence of one kind of creature morphing into another, and purportedly provide proof for evolution. But is that proof so conclusive? Do fossils with distinct transitional features even exist? ICR paleobiochemist Dr. Brian Thomas and host Ivana Semidey review the most commonly referenced "transitional fossils" and see if they display the changes required for evolution to be true.         More...25 min
  14. 38Did Dinosaurs Have Feathers? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 38According to many sources, some dinosaurs had feathers and eventually evolved into birds. But Scripture says that birds and dinosaurs were each created by God on two different days of the creation week—and that birds were actually created first, completely separate from dinosaurs. So what's the truth? In this episode, Dr. Tim Clarey, ICR's geologist, dives into the evidence—from Scripture and from the fossil record—that shows the real relationship between these two kinds of creatures.         More...21 min

  16. 40They Lied to Us? (Humans & Chimps: Part 1) | The Creation Podcast: Episode 40Back in the nineteenth century, Charles Darwin promoted the supposed similarity between humans and chimpanzees. Later DNA studies seemed to support that idea—until someone started taking a closer look and noticed that there had been some...monkey business. In the first installment of this two-part episode, ICR geneticist Dr. Jeff Tomkins explains how chimp and human DNA are not as similar as many people think, and why it matters. (Stay tuned for Part 2!)         More...25 min
  17. 41The Truth About the Chimp Genome (Humans & Chimps: Part 2) | The Creation Podcast: Episode 41Have scientists proven human evolution from a "common apelike ancestor," or are we being told a clever, confusing story filled with farcical "facts?" What is chromosome fusion, and why does it matter when discussing matters of the Christian faith? In the second installment of this two-part episode, ICR geneticist Dr. Jeff Tomkins and host Trey Bowling dig deeper into the science and expose the flaws of an anti-design approach to genetics.         More...20 min
  18. 42The Miracle of Life | The Creation Podcast: Episode 42How does a brand new human begin forming inside a mother? What crucial role is the placenta designed to fill? Human reproduction is a mind-bogglingly complex process that demonstrates the glory and wisdom of our Creator, the Lord Jesus Christ. In this episode, ICR president Dr. Randy Guliuzza and host Trey discuss how the processes and systems in human reproduction point to the Designer.         More...18 min
  19. 43What Do the Laws of Physics Tell Us About the Universe? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 43How does the study of physics demonstrate the existence of a Creator? Do the laws we see in the universe today make sense in an evolutionary worldview? In this episode, Dr. Jake Hebert and host Ivana discuss what we can learn about our Creator, the Lord Jesus Christ, from this fascinating area of scientific study.           More...16 min
  20. 44Is There Any Truth to Dragon Legends? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 44Dragons are considered by many to be made-up creatures in fairytales and legends, but our ancestors produced many descriptions and depictions of "dragons," some of which match real dinosaur fossils found centuries later. If humans lived with these incredible beasts, doesn't that contradict the evolutionist assumption that dinosaurs died off millions of years before modern humans evolved? Host Trey and paleobiochemist Dr. Brian Thomas discuss the facts that lie behind the legends.         More...27 min
  21. 45Why Do Animals Hibernate? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 45The word hibernation is often used in reference to deep sleep, but what is it really? What kinds of creatures hibernate?

  22. 46The Mystery of Life | The Creation Podcast: Episode 46We all know life when we see it—but what is it REALLY? Where did it come from? And how did it begin? Could life have spontaneously come into existence through something like abiogenesis? Host Ivana and geneticist Dr. Jeff Tomkins discuss what life is, and the opposing thoughts regarding how it started.           More...22 min
  23. 47Why Do Parasites Exist? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 47Try to get to the end of this episode without squirming! Almost everything on earth has some kind of parasite living inside of it—including humans. What are parasites, and how do they impact their hosts? Were they a part of God's original "very good" creation? Some parasites produce effects terrifying enough to make your skin crawl; but did you know that some of them are harmless—or even beneficial—to their hosts? Host Lauren and biologist Dr. Frank Sherwin talk about these strange organisms—the good, the bad, and the ugly.       &nb... More...19 min
  24. 48Where Did the Immune System Come From? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 48It's time to rethink the REAL function of the immune system. What we think is our body's defense system is actually more of a control interface, incredibly designed by our Creator!
