The intersection of biblical studies, genetics, history, genealogy, and geography.
Sexual Recombination, complex genetics, and challenges to the Out-of-Africa theory
Notes, links, and things to think about: Hinch et al. 2011. The landscape of recombination in African Americans. Nature 476:170–177, 2011. Eberle et al. 2017. A reference dataset of 5.4 million human variants validated by genetic inheritance from sequencing a...
Things I no longer believe
Dr Rob spills the beans about several things he no longer believes, including Darwinian evolution, the simplicity of bacteria, Linnean taxonomy, and the thought that the human embryo goes through the stages of evolution as it develops. This is a deep dive into the...
Where are the skeletons of all the REALLY old people? Archaeology vs the Bible.
There is scant evidence for very old people in the archaeological record, but the Bible claims people once lived for centuries. Is this a major contradiction? Not really. First, regarding the physical evidence, we would not necessarily know what to look for. Second,...
Genealogy vs Phylogeny: The War Continues
Mutations are known to occur at much higher rates than can be accounted for in evolutionary theory. Given measurable rates, Y Chromosome Adam and Mitochondrial Eve would have lived only a few thousand years ago. To answer this, evolutionists generally appeal to...
How the butterfly got its stripes
The genetics of the humble butterfly tells us a lot about the creation-evolution debate, the definition of 'species', the definition of 'junk DNA', and how complex the control systems for things like wing patterns are. The 'unit' of creation is not the species but the...
Why Egyptians are not ‘Black’
Egyptian culture is thousands of years old, yet they never maintained perfect isolation from the nations among whom they lived. They have been conquered and they themselves have conquered many times. Invading armies brought hordes of soldiers, who would have left...
DNA of the Ancient Pharaohs
Dr Rob describes the horrible levels of inbreeding within the ancient Egyptian royal family and how this affected them over time. This includes the problems we see in the mummies of King Tut and his father Akhenaten, plus further up the family tree in the time of...
How did they build the pyramids so soon after Noah’s Flood?
Dr Rob travels to Egypt to answer some difficult questions about the biblical timeline, population growth, the people of Egypt, and how, on earth, there were enough people to build the pyramids just a few centuries after Babel. Notes and links: Tour Egypt with CMI...
Fighting among the creationists?
Dr Rob talks about how divisions and disagreements are not only necessary but also productive for scientific progress. Thus, when you see two scientists disagreeing, this does not mean they hate each other or that they are necessarily refuting each other. He talks...
