A Test for Quasar Cosmological Redshifts
Dr. Danny R. Faulkner • March 21, 2018
The hypothesis that extragalactic redshifts are cosmological is strongly supported. I encourage fellow recent creationists to abandon their doubts that extragalactic redshifts are cosmological.

Dr. Danny R. Faulkner • Oct. 25, 2017
There are old supernova remnants and stage three supernova remnants have been identified. Therefore, this may not be a good argument for recent origin.
The Case for Dark Matter
Dr. Danny R. Faulkner • March 22, 2017
We ought not to dismiss the observational science for dark matter over fears of the misuse of dark matter in historical science.

A Biblical Creationist Cosmogony
Dr. John G. Hartnett • Jan. 14, 2015
The cosmogony proposed is consistent with all creationist understandings of the biblical texts and has no light-travel time problem.

Comments on the Cosmic Microwave Background
Dr. Danny R. Faulkner • March 19, 2014
The big bang model is contrary to the Bible and the recent creation model. Since in our view the big bang never happened, the CMB requires some alternate explanation.

In recent years there has been increasing discussion of craters within the creation paradigm.
The Second Law of Thermodynamics and the Curse
Dr. Danny R. Faulkner • Nov. 13, 2013
Many recent creationists believe that the second law of thermodynamics came into being as a result of the Fall or the curse. I argue that this is not supported by Scripture nor science.

A Brief History of Intolerance in Modern Cosmology
Dr. Jerry Bergman • Jan. 21, 2009
A review of some recent well-documented cases of intolerance in the cosmology field illustrates a common problem in science. Many relate to the Big Bang theory.
Mars, a Testament to Catastrophe
Charles Creager, Jr. • July 23, 2008
The unlikely geographic relationship between these gigantic features suggests a cause and effect relationship between them. This implies a global Martian catastrophe comparable to the Genesis Flood.
An Apology and Unification Theory for the Reconciliation of Physical Matter and Metaphysical Cognizance
Desmond Allen • Feb. 27, 2008
Because one is tangible and the other intangible, the physical and metaphysical are generally treated separately. But this dichotomy is illogical.
