18. Study casts doubt on creationism
October 24, 2007
The St Bernard dog – named after the 11th century priest Bernard of Menthon – may have ironically
challenged the theory of creationism, say scientists. Biologists at The University of Manchester say
that changes to the shape of the breed’s head over the years can only be explained through
evolution and natural selection.
The team, led by Dr Chris Klingenberg in the Faculty of Life Sciences, examined the skulls of 47 St
Bernards spanning 120 years, from modern examples to those of dogs dating back to the time when
the breed standard was first defined. “We discovered that features stipulated in the breed standard of
the St Bernard became more exaggerated over time as breeders selected dogs that had the desired
physical attributes,” said Dr Klingenberg. “In effect they have applied selection to move the
evolutionary process a considerable way forward, providing a unique opportunity to observe sustained
evolutionary change under known selective pressures.”
The findings, published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences tomorrow
(Wednesday), are based on studies of St Bernard skulls donated by Swiss breeders to the Natural
History Museum in Berne. Compared to their ancestors, modern St Bernards have broader skulls,
while the angle between the nose and the forehead is steeper in modern dogs and they have also
developed a more pronounced ridge above the eyes.
“These changes are exactly in those features described as desirable in the breed standards. They are
clearly not due to other factors such as general growth and they provide the animal with no physical
advantage, so we can be confident that they have evolved purely through the selective
considerations of breeders.

20. Mar 2012 - RSR predicts that
the Russian scientists who
evaluate the data obtained
from their 2-mile deep bore
hole into Lake Vostok in
Antarctica will be surprised to
find evidence that seems to
contradict the old-earth belief
that it has been sealed off
from light and air for 15
million years (i.e., three times
longer than it took to allegedly
evolve humans from chimp-like
creatures).
21. "Many of the species we sequenced are what we
would expect to find in a lake. Most of the
organisms appear to be aquatic (freshwater), and
many are species that usually live in ocean or
lake sediments." - Scott Rogers, Bowling Green State

28. Team leader Dr. David Page of the Whitehead
Institute for Biomedical Research in Cambridge,
Mass said in the journal Nature (Jan 2010) that
the human and chimp Y chromosomes are
“horrendously different from each other”.
How different? Between 30 – 47%!
Dr Page continued: “…the difference in MSY
gene content in chimpanzee and human is more
comparable to the difference in autosomal gene
content in chicken and human…”.
Horrendous indeed!

“This disaster might be averted if we can show that the
axis arises from some oddity in the way our telescopes

Space Agency's recently launched Planck space telescope
might settle the issue when it makes the most sensitive
maps yet of the CMB. Until then, the axis of evil continues
to terrorise us.” – New Scientist, 2009
107. "The fact that Planck has made such a
significant detection of these anomalies

their own eyes, And prudent in their own sight!
and sweet for bitter!
Psalms 9, 1-2:
The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.
Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
109. “Evolution makes predictions,
creation cannot”
Carnegie Institution For Science:
Today the universe is filled with galaxies that have
largely stopped forming stars, a sign of galactic
maturity. But in the distant past, galaxies were still
actively growing by consuming gas and turning it
into stars. This means that mature galaxies
should have been almost non-existent when
the universe was still young.
110. RSR's List of Evidence Against the Big Bang…
“ Fifteen mature galaxies were found at a
record-breaking average distance of 12 billion
light years, when the universe was just 1.6
billion years old…. The finding raises new
questions about how these galaxies formed so
rapidly and why they stopped forming stars so
early. It is an enigma that these galaxies
seem to come out of nowhere.”

to see the city and the tower
which the sons of men had
built. And the LORD said,
“Indeed the people are one and they all have one
language… “Come, let Us go down and there
confuse their language, that they may not
understand one another’s speech.” So the LORD
scattered them abroad from there over the face of
all the earth, and they ceased building the city.
Gen 11:1-8

“Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became
uncovered in his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw
the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers
outside. But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on
both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the
nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned away,
and they did not see their father’s nakedness. So Noah
awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had
done to him. Then he said: “Cursed be Canaan; A servant
of servants He shall be to his brethren.”
Genesis 9:21-25
118. Why was Canaan Cursed?

Darwin: “Language slowly and unconsciously

120. Origin of Language
People with least complex cultures have
sophisticated languages, with complex
grammar and large vocabularies, can
name and discuss anything that occurs in
the sphere occupied by their speaker…the
oldest language that can reasonably be
reconstructed is already modern,
sophisticated, and complete from an
evolutionary point of view.

126. “Faith”, from Webster’s Dictionary:
2 a (1) : belief and trust in and loyalty to
God (2) : belief in the traditional doctrines
of a religion b (1) : firm belief in something
for which there is no proof (2) : complete
trust
Faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen.
Hebrews 11:1
127. “John the Baptist has sent us to You,
saying, 'Are You the Coming One, or do we
look for another?‘”
Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell
John the things you have seen and heard: that
the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are
cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
the poor have the gospel preached to them.
And blessed is he who is not offended
because of Me."
Luke 7: 20-23
128. "And do not be afraid of their
