Old Earth Ministries Featured Article of the Day
Answers in Genesis
Marriage—Why Two? Why Not Three or More? - Daily article for 1 June. Takes a swipe at evolutionists, but not really an age of the earth issue.
Gone in Only One Generation: Battle for Kids' Minds - AiG realizes that children are the key to AiG's future, so Ken Ham encourages parents to battle for their kids by giving them good instruction. Although the age of the earth is not the major topic in this article, Ken Ham is writing to his YEC followers, so its definately implied.
How Long Was Adam in the Garden of Eden? - AiG's answer is that we cannot know for certain, but it could not have been long. For old earth creationism, we don't know either, but it could have been a very long time...or it could have been short. God simply did not reveal the timing to us in Genesis.
NASA Astronauts/Engineers on God, Creation, and Evolution - From Ken Ham's Blog.
Is Jurassic World Wrong for Portraying Dinosaurs without Feathers? - This AiG article claims that "But the supposed evidence for feathered dinosaurs is scanty and speculative." To prove that point, they provide a link to a single claim that they dispute, and ignore all the other scientific discoveries that show feathered dinosaurs. Apparently they haven't been keeping up with the scientific news (or they are willfully ignorant of the news).
Creation Ministries International
A is for Aardvark: Can you cross a pig, a rat, a donkey, and an anteater? - This article is mostly a 'god of the gaps' article, but it does make anti-evolution statements.
Order in the Fossil Record - Although CMI talks around the topic and gives their usual arguments, the fact remains that YEC still does not have a valid scientific answer for the order of fossils.
Institute for Creation Research
Acts & Facts - ICR publishes its June issue of Acts & Facts. This issue contains claims about Radioactive Dating, Distant Starlight, Ice Sheets, and Dinosaurs in Marine Sediments.
Creation Today & Other Minor YEC Ministries
No new articles today.

Did you know that you can be a Christian,
and believe that the earth is billions of years old? You can even
believe in evolution and be a Christian. There is no conflict
between science and the Bible...all one needs is a proper
understanding how to merge science and the Bible. To learn more
about old earth creationism, see
Old Earth Belief,
or check out the article
Can You Be A
Christian and Believe in an Old Earth?
Feel free to check out more of this website. Our goal is to
provide rebuttals to the bad science behind young earth creationism,
and honor God by properly presenting His creation.
