The Intelligent Investor

Virginia public schools that do not already include intelligent design and creationism into their curriculum should be required to. There are many people in the scientific community that regard creationism and intelligent design as pseudoscience. They believe this because they claim there is a lack of scientific proof for both theories and an abundance for their own. However, Creationism and Intelligent Design both have evidences for their legitimacy. The Virginia Board of Education (VBOE) and…

Unsurprisingly, many creationists and creation scientists are against the teaching of evolution in schools. For example, extreme creationist Jack Wellman, a Christian author who holds a BA in history as well as degrees in science and education, claims that evolution cannot be validated as factual because it cannot be proven (Wellman). He argues that since evolution cannot be observed in a lab, it cannot be confirmed, making it merely a theory. Also, he argues that there are no “transitional…

We live in an era of intelligent technology where our watches tell us not only the time, but they also remind us to exercise. Our phones recommend the best places to hang out, and our computers predict our preferences, helping us to do our daily work more efficiently. However, all of these digital assistants demonstrate only a tiny sliver of artificial intelligence, and it’s plain to see how we’re still ages away from Skynet and Blade Runner scenarios. Or are we? Since the beginning of the…

Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Imagine a world where ape-like people reign supreme. You communicate by a series of grunts, but as you evolve you are able to form speech. Constantly, other creatures are evolving just like you. In a few years, you will all be humans! Now open your eyes. This is a lie, a fairytale, and something formed from imagination. Yet, Evolutionist believe this with a fiery passion. In The Lie: Evolution, Ken Ham shows us the key to defending our faith through…

Creationism Vs. Evolution Why believe in creationism when the majority of evidence points to evolution? Both theories have different ideas. Creationists have the belief/idea that the universe and living organisms emerge from the specific acts of divine creation, as in the biblical account, rather than by natural processes such as evolution. Evolution as in the theory in biology where assuming the various types of living things on the earth have their own origin in other preexisting types and…

They consider themselves an advocacy group for intelligent design. Intelligent design is an alternative theory to evolution. They want to teach ID along with accepted scientific theories like evolution. They do not do research but they propose what they consider to be good ideas. For example they try to say that the flagellum is too complex to have been created through evolution so instead they use no science and say that a higher being or intelligent designer must have put it there. They use a…

Creationism is the belief that the universe and all living organisms came from specific acts of divine creation rather than by natural processes. The kinds of creationism consist of scientific creationism, theistic evolution/evolutionary creationism, and intelligent design…

backing up the theory of creationism although it has a large following. Intelligent Design is another view that is similar to the idea of creationism yet not identical. Intelligent Design holds the belief that the cells and species are far too complex and intricate to have evolved and must have been designed by a higher intelligent being, thus being called intelligent design. One major difference between Creationism and Intelligent Design carries an agnostic personality compared to Creationism…

Science is in everything, including religion and lack thereof. In this paper I will show how scientism is tied in with the aspects of religious faith and atheism. First and foremost science is defined as the analytical and empirical basis for understanding reality, truth is either analytically understood or empirically verifiable. Also the main arguments that will be discussed deal with the finely tuned universe, the teleological argument, the theory of pragmatism and biological evolution.…

An important observation from the PCR process is the idea of going back to nature to seek answers to the challenges that we are faced with. The One who created the planets took into consideration the fact that bacteria such as Thermos Aquaticus would need a special chemical composition to be able to live in that environment that it stays in. It appears that there is a strong evidence that indeed creation, as told by the Bible, is not some kind of myth. Therefore, whenever we are faced with such…
