Sink the BeagleSTB 2025-07-08 Charles LyellDr. John Kurlinski and Dr. Stan Hudson host a program that takes a lighthearted look at the issues surrounding creationism and Darwinism. The title Sink the Beagle is derived from the fact that in 1831 Charles Darwin began a journey on the H.M.S. Beagle during which he formulated his theory of evolution. John and Stan take aim and fire freely at this theory. They have a very entertaining style of delivery while maintaining a firm grounding in scripture. www.lifetalk.net2025-07-0813 min

Teoria de la evolucionEl desarrollo de las ideas de DarwinDespués de regresar del viaje en el Beagle, Darwin pasó años investigando y reflexionando sobre sus observaciones. Inspirado por las ideas de Charles Lyell y Thomas Malthus, desarrolló la teoría de la selección natural como explicación para el cambio en las especies. Su investigación fue acelerada cuando Alfred Russel Wallace, otro naturalista, llegó a ideas similares, lo que motivó a Darwin a publicar El Origen de las Especies en 1859, revolucionando la biología moderna.2024-10-2904 min

Today we will be discussing what led Darwin to researching and creating his theory of evolution.Segment 1: Introduction to Darwin’s Early InfluencersOur current belief of evolution is that species change in characteristics over several generations and this can be caused by natural selection. These characteristics are the expressions of genes that are passed on from parent to offspring during reproduction. Natu...2021-01-0710 min

Lecciones de Biblia y Ciencia39. Autores teoría evolutiva _ Darwin y sus predecesores (Lecciones de Biblia y Ciencia _ María del Pilar Salazar)De forma errónea se tiende a atribuir a Charles Darwin todos los postulados de la teoría de evolutiva, pero en realidad fueron varios los autores que incluyeron en su conformación. De modo que se hace necesario de que antes de exponer los argumentos a favor del creacionismo, distinguir los aportes particulares de cada uno y por último recordar lo planteado por el mismo Darwin; en este vídeo se habla de: - Lamarck -Lyell Cahles -Alfred Russell Wallace -Spencer Herbert -Thomas Robert Malthus -Charles Darwin

Creation Talk PodcastWas Noah’s Flood Global or Regional?Many modern theologians reject the idea that Noah’s Flood surrounded the globe, and they confine the event to a small area in Mesopotamia. Scientist Dr Robert Carter and apologist Keaton Halley discuss what the Bible actually says about the scale of the Flood, the historical shift in the church’s interpretation, and the role that the sciences of geology and genetics play in the debate.

We then turn to Whitney’s own conception of language as a “human institution” and its intellectual background.

Evolution ImpossibleErosion & Sedimentation vs Radiometric Dating AgesOne of the big things that evolution needs is time, and lots of it! That’s why Charles Darwin was so intrigued and attracted to Charles Lyell’s hypothesis that geology points to long ages. But do geological processes really lead us to an old Earth? That’s the topic for this discussion!2020-04-0228 min

Y es que, a principios del siglo XIX, colisionaron dos corrientes científicas: el catastrofismo, que defendía que la Tierra se había moldeado a partir de eventos singulares como terremotos o inundaciones, y por otro el uniformismo o gradualismo, que defendía que la Tierra que vemos hoy es en realidad el resultado de pequeños procesos que existen hoy igual que han exis...2020-03-3113 min

Creation Article PodcastGod Created With Functional MaturityThere is an errant concept of ‘creation with apparent age’. A hypothetical modern observer who travelled back in time to see Adam and Eve at the end of Day 6 might infer that they were 20-year-old adults, but in reality they were less than a day old. Similarly, the trees on Day 3 would be mature trees, and a time-traveling observer might infer that they were hundreds of years old. So the question has been asked, “Why would God deceive us with apparent age of past events before the week of creation?”
