Birds and Flight–by Timothy G. Standish

Biomimicry: The Search for Brilliant Design–by David Steen

Creation, Flood and Biogeography: Part 3–by L. James Gibson

The third part of this series on biogeography examines how the flood might have influenced the present patterns of distributions of various types of living organisms.

The True Colors of the Ocean–by Noemi Duran

Teeming Creatures of the Sea!–by Stephen Dunbar

The number of different kinds of living organisms is one measure of biological diversity, or what has become known as “biodiversity.” Our world’s oceans have the highest known biodiversity, second only to the number of species found in the tropical rainforest.

Microbes, Symbiosis, and the Lesson of Interdependence–by Suzanne Phillips

Organisms in Their Niche: Passive Modeling Clay or Problem-Solving Entities?–by Randy J. Guliuzza

One person’s cultural background can bias their view about people from other cultures… even before they have ever met. Could people also have a bias about how they think about other creatures? It may even be possible that scientific culture could prejudice the way researchers see creature-environmental relations with the potential to bias whole research programs.

A Review of the Nature Documentary “The Riot and the Dance”–by Ronny Nalin

Most nature documentaries include some language that refers to an underlying naturalistic understanding of origins. However, the recently released nature documentary “The Riot and the Dance” breaks this common pattern in a refreshing way.

Is There Biological Evidence of Life's Recent Creation?–by Timothy G. Standish

Genesis Kinds and the Sea Urchin–by L. James Gibson

Annotations from the Literature

A collection of short commentaries on scientific papers published in 2015, covering topics such as phylogeny of moths, beak variations in species of Galapagos finches and scrub jays, functional synthetic chromosomes, horizontal gene transfer, Jurassic fossil snakes, stasis, trace fossils of swimming tetrapods, and habitat diversity in the fossil record. Published in Origins, v. 64.

What is the Meaning of Kinds in Genesis?–by L. James Gibson

The words kind and kinds that are mentioned in the Creation narrative of Genesis 1:21, 24, and 25. How are we to understand these terms in a modern context? How do they relate to current terms and classifications in biology?

The Riddle of Migratory Birds: Another Evidence of God’s Design–by Kyu Bong Lee

How does one account for bird migrations? Why do they migrate at all? How do they know when it’s time to begin the long journey? What guides their flight path and direction? How do they know their destination, and how do they prepare for the trip?

Ecology, Biodiversity, and Creation: A View from the Top–by Henry A. Zuill

The complex and vitally essential ecology and biodiversity we find in nature today, at the top of the structural hierarchy of nature, suggest that many interacting organisms would have been required right from the beginning. Only a short-term creation would provide such ecosystem requirements.

Incomplete Ecosystems–by Ariel A. Roth

The fact that animals need plants poses a problem for the evolutionary model, since the record of past life sometimes reveals non-viable ecosystems.

Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model to Understand the Role of Epigenetic Heritage in Microevolution–by Tiago A. J. de Souza
