41. Foraminifers in the Fossil Record: Implications for an Ecological Zonation Model
...Foraminifers are able to reproduce rapidly and are quite variable morphologically, depending on environmental conditions. These factors make it seem plausible that the numbers of species and individuals...
42. Chemical Evolution
...earth’s primitive atmosphere predominately contained large amounts of hydrogen (i.e., a reducing environment) is primarily a matter of conjecture. S. L. Miller in his recent publication7 states...
43. Amino Acid Dating

44. Why I Care for the Creation
...displayed by God, the Divine Engineer and supreme Artist of this cosmos. Thus, nature is not only our environment but also our partner. The beings that co-exist with humanity are not simple resources...
45. A Note on the Pre-Flood/Flood Boundary in the Grand Canyon
...dolomite and sandstone beds consistent with deposition in a shallow, waveand tidal-influenced marine environment. The mudrocks are commonly organic rich and contain abundant marine microfossils (acritarchs...
46. Conserving Island Earth
...the American public in an unprecedented way. The photograph coincided with a surge in interest in environmental protection, and quickly became an icon of the environmental movement. Our view of the earth...
47. Origin of Life: A Look at Late 20th-Century Thinking
...living cell. Evolutionary explanations of how proteins and nucleic acids may arise in a pre-biotic environment have insurmountable difficulties. A growing recognition of these difficulties is reflected...
48. Wholistic Geology: Geology Before, During, and After the Biblical Flood
...flood (Brand 1997, p 274-276). These basins were largely occupied by shallow oceans and nearshore environments, and it is not clear where the preflood continents were. This may seem extreme, but if our...
49. Fossil Patterns: A Classification and Evaluation
...trend is. If the trend is valid, it would be another trend by addition. Patterns in Depositional Environments Storm deposits. Information about patterns in depositional environments is not as readily...
50. The Chemical Composition of the Earth's Original Atmosphere
...that metamorphic processes often lead to partial reduction of iron [26] and that many reducing environments are known on the earth at the present day. Reducing conditions prevail deep in the earth's...
51. Some Philosophical Implications of the Theory of Evolution
...of the fittest" means simply that certain life forms were able to survive changes in the natural environment because they had evolved through blind chance certain characteristics that enabled them to...
52. Annotations from the Literature
...different habitats after the flood. As species dispersed from the ark, they would encounter different environmental conditions, and would have to adapt or go extinct. Undoubtedly, many did go extinct...
53. Annotations from the Literature
...such as body shape and limb proportions. Creationist theory postulates extremely large changes in environmental conditions since the creation, making significant variation, often accompanied by speciation...

...accounts, can contribute to the framing of the foundations of a biblically-informed approach to environmental issues. INTRODUCTION Parallelism is a rhetorical figure of great relevance in biblical literature...
57. Fossils of the Galápagos: A Review with Implications for Creationist Models
...creationists would agree that modern species differ from pre-flood species, as they adapted to new environmental conditions after the flood. Therefore, when considering these two aspects, a reasonable...
58. Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model to Understand the Role of Epigenetic Heritage in Microevolution
