Dinosaurs in Eden | Answers in Genesis Imagine dinosaurs living with people. The thought sounds ludicrous to a modern mind steeped in evolution. But it’s the only reasonable conclusion if the Bible is true. The Bible is the key historical document to help us answer questions about when dinosaurs lived, what they ate, and why we don’t see them today.
Dispelling Paleontological Myths and False Narratives | Answers in Genesis There are certainly a lot of myths and false narratives about the so-called time of the dinosaurs! But the evolutionary story has changed, and so the old story is now considered a myth and false narrative. To clean up those myths, you’ve got to start with God’s Word as true history.

Asteroids Hit First, Volcanoes Deliver Knockout Punch to Dinosaurs? | Answers in Genesis Do we see volcanism on a continental-wide scale today? No, absolutely not. Today, we do not see such catastrophic volcanic output, where over a mile thickness of lava is spread out over 200,000 square miles. Evidence of such large-scale catastrophes are yet another reminder that the present is not the key to the past.

This find was the first complete specimen. They are well studied, and research on their skeletons has provided evidence for incredible design and the global flood.
Hypsilophodon—Least but Not Last | Answers in Genesis When you think of dinosaurs, you probably think of the majestic giants that once dominated the landscape. Not so fast! Don’t overlook the numerous small ones. Their marvelous designs praise their Creator as much as the designs of their big neighbors.
New Species of “Bat-Wing” Dinosaur Uncovered? | Answers in Genesis Headlines around the world are announcing the discovery of a new species of “bat-wing dinosaur” uncovered in China. Researchers are dating this find at 163 million years old. They claim this new species, Ambopteryx longibrachium, had a membranous wing, similar to bats. But what was this creature?
Hybrid Dinosaur | Answers in Genesis T. rex is one of the best-known dinosaurs, and among the things T. rex is known for are its almost humorously short, weak arms. Many herbivorous dinosaurs, meanwhile, had four powerful legs but no arms. But a newly discovered dinosaur appears to have been something of a hybrid: it stood on only two hind legs, like T. rex, but sported arms with powerful hands.
Antarctica—Dinosaurs on Ice | Answers in Genesis The discovery of dinosaur fossils in Antarctica forces us to ask what extreme changes caused heat-loving dinosaurs to wind up on this ice-covered continent.
Dinosaur Apeman | Answers in Genesis We typically think of the “missing link” as an ape–human transitional form. In this case, though, the “missing link” is “big, short-footed, barrel-chested, long-necked, small-headed dinosaur.”

They admit we can’t know if this scenario is true because all evidence of that civilization would be long gone.
Dinosaurs in the Lobby | Answers in Genesis A recent visitor to the Creation Museum wonders about our depiction of children playing next to young dinosaurs. Tim Chaffey, AiG-U.S., addresses these concerns.

did-dinosaurs-turn-into-birds/1 page
Did Dinosaurs Turn into Birds? | Answers in Genesis According to many evolutionists today, dinosaurs are really not extinct but rather are feeding at our bird feeders even as we speak.

“Brainless Fungi” Extraordinarily Complex | Answers in Genesis When you think of fungi, you probably don’t automatically think “smart”—especially considering they don’t have brains! But these incredible organisms are indeed “smart,” in the sense that they are designed to do what they do, and what they do, they do well.
Fungal “family tree” identifies problems with evolution | Answers in Genesis This research does little to support molecules-to-man evolution as a theory of origins. Since this type of research is historical in nature, the conclusions made by the authors are their guesses given their naturalistic worldview.

how-did-plants-learn-to-communicate/1 page
Plant Communication: How Plants Learned to Talk | Answers in Genesis Plants have an awkward predicament.

Did God Create Parasites? | Answers in Genesis How did disgusting parasites become part of God’s “very good” creation?
