Workin’ It Out
   The other day while I was at the gym, I had a thought cross my mind.  In fact, the thought was about my mind. As I lifted __ pounds of iron without hardly breaking a sweat, I got to thinking  about how our minds are kind of like our muscles.  When we work them out, exercise them, and challenge them, they develop and grow stronger and we are better off for it.  On the flip side, if we let them take it easy all the time and only tackle what’s within — or below

A Quick Look at Atheism – Part II
This post is the second of two posts on some of the inconsistencies in the Atheistic worldview.  If you have not read the first entry, you may want to do so by reading the previous post entitled “A Quick Look At Atheism – Part I”. OK, let’s check out the next two inconsistencies in atheism that Dr. Bahnsen addressed.  First, we covered the problem of inductive inference, detailing how Atheists cannot rely on past occurrences/information to draw conclusions about the future, since they believe all processes are governed by random chance.  Next we touched on their inability to employ logic and concepts in reasoning.  Consideri

Journey Inside the Cell
 This video should be a good follow up to the previous post that described how it is practically impossible for proteins and other molecular structures to form by chance. The complexity of something as “simple” as a cell is an amazing testimony to our Creator’s design. Tagged: Abiogenesis, Christianity, Creation, DNA
