Birds Turning into Elephants!: Evolution Is a Fact (Creationists Are Dead Wrong)
It pains me to continually see the absurd rejection of evolution by creationists who claim “I’ve never seen one species turn into another.” Well, now you have.

Bible Contradictions #47: Did Enoch die?
I previously tackled the does-everyone-die contradiction. I briefly mentioned Enoch in that post. This one expands on Enoch and raises another contradiction. In order to answer the question of whether or not Enoch died, all we must do is read Hebrews … Continue reading
