Some Of Our Favorite Things
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
I’ve published a version of this article before, and it always gives me a chuckle or two to think about some of my “favorite things”. What about you? I’ll bet you like to think about your “favorite things” just as I do. And in this time of stress and demands by our ‘wanna-be” political masters (Marxists, Dumbocrats, Globalists, Technocrats, mega-billionaires, bought-and-paid-for politicians and the international bankers and asset investors who control all of them), perhaps you’ll get a few much needed pleasant memories to brighten your day, if only for a few moments, and ignore the ravings and babblings of the mental midgets among us who love to posture as our ‘equals” or, more amusingly, as our “betters.”
The Philosophical Nature of Origins
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The topic of origins is very important to understanding who we are and where we come from. The problem is that because none of us were there, assumptions need to be made about the types of processes going on. These assumptions are largely philosophical in nature, because our philosophical presuppositions are going to influence what types of processes we will accept.
Sadly, many people think that such research is totally objective and that the only reason creation and intelligent design models are excluded is because they're not supported by evidence. The problem is that this presumption of objectivity can easily be demonstrated to be erroneous, based on the reactions to both creation and intelligent design.

Serious Potential Conflict between US and China
Venezuela has the largest proven crude oil reserves in the world. With over 304 billion barrels of proven crude oil reserves, Venezuela has almost 18 percent of the world’s total of 1.72 trillion barrels.
To give some global perspective, according to the US Energy Information Administration, here are the top ten: Venezuela 18%; Saudi Arabia 16%; Iran 12%; Iraq 12%; Canada 10%; United Arab Emirates (UAE) 6%; Kuwait 6%; Russia 5%; the United States 4%, and Libya 3%. China, with the second largest population in the world, 1.41 billion people, has less than 2%. India, now with the largest population, 1.46 billion, in the world has only 0.27%. The United States now has the third largest population in the world, including illegal immigrants, at 347 million.
Are We Going To Let Moon Bats Destroy Us?
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
We’ve all seen them in person or on video: Little flying mammals who come out around dusk in search of insects or fruit to eat. A few of them seek out animal blood to drink, and are called “vampire” bats. Most people are afraid of bats (which don’t get in your hair, as an “old wives tale” long has claimed), but except for the remote possibility of being bitten by a rabid bat, they are harmless to humans and generally are beneficial to mankind. All except one.
DO YOU KNOW ANY “MOON BATS”?
Do Creationist Arguments Result from Incredulity or Agency Detection Bias
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The claim has been made that creationist arguments result from either incredulity or agency detection bias. This claim is primarily a way of dismissing any argument that would infer a designer Regardless of the nature of the argument. The insistence of this problem is never made with a reasonable explanation, the person making it simply continues to insist on the fallacy or bias.
Incredulity fallacy
An argument from incredulity Claims that an idea has to be false because it contradicts the person's personal beliefs, or that they cannot imagine that it is true. It can also take the opposite form of making the case that an idea has to be true for the same reasons. The problem with this fallacy is the fact that personal belief does not in and of itself mean that something is true or false.
Problems with the Idea of Apparent Age in Young Earth Creation
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the ideas claimed as a way of explaining how an Earth that is 6000 years old can be dated at billions of years old and for explaining how we can see distant starlight is the idea that God created the earth and the universe with apparent age. There are, however, multiple problems with this idea. Please note, this is not to be confused with a mature creation, where God created things with what might be called functional age. For example, God would have created Adam and Eve as fully functional adults. The same would be the case for plants and animals as well. However, what the apparent age idea proposes is that God included needless artificial age.
Top 20 Nations Ranked by 2025 GDP (PPP)

Competing in a Changing World
In economics, annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total monetary value of all final goods and services produced within a country's borders over a year. It serves as an indicator of a nation's economic performance and size. GDP (PPP) is the Gross Domestic Product based on Purchasing Power Parity (PPP). PPP adjusts GDP for the relative cost of local goods, services, and inflation rates for each country, which makes it a much more useful and realistic calculation than using exchange rate calculations for a theoretical international dollar. Several international organizations calculate GDP—The International Monetary Fund, The World Bank, and CIA—and arrive at slightly different figures. The World Bank and IMF figures are generally close. CIA estimates may be politicized. The statistics presented here are from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) based in Washington. The United States is used as the comparison standard so the GDP and GDP (PPP) for the United States are the same. These are the most recent estimates for calendar year 2025.
