How did slow animals like sloths get from Noah's Ark in the mountains of Ararat to the jungles of South America? Is that a death blow to creationist thinking? Paul and Todd give some basic answers to this question and more in their latest episode as they wrap up their short series describing the world after the Flood. Listen in on their conversation to find out how the residual catastrophism of earthquakes and volcanoes and glaciation combine with ideas of diversification within created kinds to explain how animals got to their present homes.

Forty-five years ago, on May 18, 1980, Mt St Helens erupted and changed creationism forever. The explosion showed us how rapidly geological features could form during a catastrophe and gave us a laboratory to understand the formation of coal. The deadly eruption also reminds us to heed the warnings of coming destruction and judgment. With so many warning signs, no one needed to die at Mt St Helens unless they chose to stay.

As Paul and Todd continue their series on natural evil, join them as they chat with Nate Labadorf about curses in the Bible. In the Ancient Near Eastern culture of the Bible, curses went hand in hand with blessings. You can't understand the one without the other. As we look to the curse pronounced in Genesis 3, it's important to look even closer to understand how it relates to blessing. Nate takes us through all of these points as we ponder the consequences of the curse in creationism. 🏫Support Paul’s work at Biblical Creation Trust and the Cambridge House Project at https://www.biblicalcreationtrust.org/ 🎁Please consider supporting this work by going to https://coresci.org/connect or https://biblicalcreationtrust.org 📫Send questions to podcast@coresci.org 🎁Support the podcast by going to https://letstalkcreation.org 🔬Join Todd’s Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/researchreports Email us with comments or questions at: podcast@coresci.org Check us out on social media and consider donating to support this podcast Core Academy of Science Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coresci.org Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coreacademyofscience/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CoreacadInfo Website: https://coresci.org/ Biblical Creation Trust Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/biblicalcreationtrust Twitter: https://twitter.com/bct_origins Website: https://www.biblicalcreationtrust.org/ For questions and comments email podcast@coresci.org Please consider supporting this work by going to https://coresci.org/connect or https://biblicalcreationtrust.org *Disclaimer: Things mentioned in the Show Notes are not endorsements of people, places, or things discussed in the podcast, but rather a record of what was spoken about and helpful links to material for our listeners.…

In this fascinating episode, Paul and Todd resume their discussion of natural evil with special guest Dr. Rahel Wells. If the world we live in is the same way God made it in the beginning, what does this tell us about God's care for the animals? On the other hand, if God really does care for the animals, how might that care shape our view of creation? Dr. Wells walks us through scripture's teaching about animals and explains what we should do about it. This is a unique conversation you won't want to miss!

If creation was originally free of disease and suffering, why do we have such an immune system? Our defense against dangerous germs is intricate, elaborate, and effective, and clearly it was part of God's design for our bodies. So what was the point?

Paul and Todd pick up on their biblical chronology series again as they explore the question everyone's been asking: Could the numbers in Genesis 5 and 11 just be symbols or ways to honor the ancestors or have other nonliteral meaning? After all, if the numbers aren't real lifespans, then there's no point in adding them up to create a chronology. Scholars for years have proposed all sorts of schemes to explain why the numbers are the way they are. Does it all just come down to symbols? Check out the latest "Let's Talk Creation" to find out.

Hans Madueme is back for round two as Paul and Todd continue their conversation over his book Defending Sin. In this episode, they get down to really deep issues as they wrestle with the actual relationship of science and faith. How do believers go about reconciling what they see in science and in Scripture? Is there a right way? What do our anxieties have to do with this? Struggling through these issues lead the guys to chat about being creationists in a pluralistic church, where different people believe different things. If our most important goal is following Jesus, what does that look like when our personal beliefs are so very different from someone else's? We hope you enjoy the conversation as Todd and Paul wrap up their interview with Hans Madueme in this episode!

Episode 89: Is Young-Age Creationism an EMBARRASSMENT? 58:03

Centuries ago, Augustine of Hippo said it was "disgraceful and dangerous" for a nonbeliever to hear Christians spouting nonsense about science. Today, as young age creationists work to promote their views, many Christians think we're nothing but an embarrassment to the cause of Christ and a stumbling block to the gospel. In this episode, Paul and Todd chat with Stephen Lloyd of Biblical Creation Trust as they push back on this negative stereotype. Stephen thinks young-age creationist beliefs can actually be an advantage in witnessing. Listen to this latest episode to find out how!…

"Solid" ground under our feet is gradually slipping away as the oceans of the world relentlessly erode the coastlines. It might surprise you to discover just how fast that's happening! In this episode, special guest Monte Fleming explains the evidence of coastal erosion that indicates the continents couldn't be much more than a few million years old, just a tiny fraction of the billions of years they're supposed to be according to conventional radiometric dating.

Are young age creationists just hung up on Genesis 1 or is there more to this story? Paul and Todd tackle this vital question by looking through the rest of the Bible to figure out if young age creationism is just an error inflated from one passage or if recent creation is the counsel of the entire scripture. In a hypothetical Bible missing Genesis 1, would Paul and Todd still be young age creationists? Tune in to find out!
