Today, on Karl and Crew, we kicked off our weekly theme, “Chivalry.” Dr. Fazale Rana, also known as Dr. Fuz, joined us to discuss how biochemistry points to God’s design, explaining that discoveries in DNA and the unique human capacities for altruism, empathy, and chivalry reflect what it means to be made in the image of God. Dr. Fuz is the President, CEO, and Senior Scholar at Reasons to Believe, a non-profit that focuses on revealing God in science. Next, Seth Troutt joined us to talk about authentic masculinity, explaining how men can reject counterfeits such as passivity and toxic masculinity by pursuing godly character, Christlike responsibility, and biblical chivalry. Seth is the Teaching Pastor at Ironwood Church in the Phoenix metro area and author of “Authentic Masculinity: Leaving Behind the Counterfeits for God’s Design.” We then had Hutz Hertzberg join us to talk about the growing hunger for Christ-centered education, explaining why parents are rethinking their children’s schooling and how classical Christian education offers an alternative rooted in biblical truth. Hutz is the chairman at Hope in Truth and currently the Chief Education Officer of Turning Point USA’s education arm, Turning Point Education.

On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week, Matt Whitman joined us to explain why we are seeing an increased interest in the church, the Bible and Jesus today. We spent time with two guests this week addressing the recent claims about U.F.O’s and alien life. First Dr. Fazale Rana put the latest claims into a biblical perspective and explained how Christians should like about these events. Then on Tuesday Dr. Casey Luskin explained why if there was such a thing as alien life it would be a greater danger those who believe in materialistic evolution than for those who believe in a creator God. We also told you why the U.N. wants you to eat insects instead of meat. National Security expert Lt. Col Robert Magginnis gave us a sobering warning about the encroachment of AI in every aspect of our lives and why we should not ignore this threat. “Readin, Writin and Rithmatic” are at the bottom of priority list for too many schools today. Janet’s daughter, the vice president of Defending Education, was back to explain how indoctrination has taken the place of education in America’s classrooms. There is only one way to combat the broken and misguided ideals permeating our society today, the word of God. Join Janet and Craig as they continue to teach, by example, how to apply His truth to our lives every day and in every circumstance.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “Tough Questions for Christians” with discussions about evolution and intelligent design. Dr. Casey Luskin joined us to discuss his faith story and his experience as a scientist who advocates for intelligent design. Dr. Luskin is a scientist and an attorney with graduate degrees in science and law. He has been a California-licensed attorney since 2005, practicing in the area of evolution-education in public schools and defending academic freedom for scientists who face discrimination because they support intelligent design. He also co-founded the Intelligent Design and Evolution Awareness (IDEA) Center, a nonprofit organization that helps students on college and high school campuses. Then we had Dr. William West join us to discuss the intersection and contradictions between faith and science. Dr. West, a Harvard and Johns Hopkins-trained oncologist and researcher, has advanced cancer care and research for over three decades. He has lectured for more than forty years on the myth of science and faith being at odds, believing they support one another and that science reveals God. He has also written a book called “Sacred Science: Understanding Divine Creation.” Then we had Dr. Fazale Rana, also known as “Dr. Fuz,” join us to share his story and discuss some advancements in biotechnology and their impact on transhumanism. Dr. Fuz is the President, CEO, and Senior Scholar at Reasons to Believe. He also holds a PhD in chemistry with a focus on biochemistry from the University of Ohio. He also wrote the book, “The Cell’s Design (Reasons to Believe): How Chemistry Reveals the Creator’s Artistry.” You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

Was "junk DNA" ever really junk—or did science just need to catch up with design? In this episode of All Rise, we talk to Dr. Fazale Rana (biochemist and President & CEO at Reasons to Believe) to dive into one of the most groundbreaking scientific reversals in recent history: the 2024 Nobel Prize awarded for discoveries showing that so-called “junk DNA” is functional and essential. For decades, large portions of the human genome were written off as useless leftovers of evolution. But was that ever good science—or just bad theology in disguise? Fuz Rana walks us through the history of this idea, why many Christian scientists and intelligent design theorists questioned it from the beginning, and how new discoveries are forcing a complete rethinking of what our DNA says about purpose, design, and even God. Is this the death of the “junk DNA” myth? What does it mean for Darwinian evolution? And how should Christians respond to this scientific turning point? Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or just curious about what your genes are really saying, this conversation will give you a fresh look at the intersection of science, faith, and design. Resources mentioned in this podcast: George Haraksin and Krista Bontrager (eds.), Revealing God in Science: https://a.co/d/24u5RzX Other resources mentioned are forthcoming.
Who was Adam? Was he the result of a natural process (evolution) or a unique creation? Did he actually exist, or was he merely a literary figure? Hasn't science proven that an original two humans is impossible? Dr. Fazale Rana, President and senior research scholar at Reasons to Believe, joins me in making a biblical and scientific case for a historical Adam and Eve. When were Adam and Eve created? How does the biblical account line up with the scientific record? Are humans related to Neanderthals? These are just a few questions that we will address in today's show. We also will be taking your questions! So join the show, bring your questions, and consider the biblical account of human origins.

Join Fazale “Fuz” Rana and Jeff Zweerink as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. Biological Basis for Belief? As human beings, our religious nature defines us. Treating it as a scientific question, many scientists wonder, how do we account for human spirituality and religiosity? Are there brain structures and processes that explain this behavior? Using lesion mapping, a research team from Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital recently determined the brain regions and neural circuits that account for religiosity and spirituality. This study (amongst others) raises troubling questions for Christians. Is our spirituality and response to religion based on our brain's biology? Is there a materialistic, mechanistic explanation for religious acceptance? Do people really experience God? In this episode, biochemist Fuz Rana addresses these questions and presents a model that accommodates these scientific findings, while retaining a biblical view of human nature. Woke at the University During the 2023–2024 academic year, Rice University offered a course called “Afrochemistry” that claimed to “apply chemical tools and analysis to understand Black life in the US.” From January 16 to May 16, 2024, AcademicJobsOnline.org advertised a job for the University of Victoria's physics and astronomy department that was only open to an indigenous person. Both examples show how a worldview subversive to the scientific enterprise is spreading into the scientific community. This view of contemporary critical theory sees the world in terms of oppressors and oppressed. In contrast, the Judeo-Christian worldview sees all people as valuable and worthy of God's and our love. Additionally, the Judeo-Christian worldview buttresses and supports the foundation needed for the scientific enterprise to flourish. YOUTUBE LINKS: Michael A.

Join Fazale Rana and Jeff Zweerink as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. Origin of Composite Genes A team of investigators from the University of Nottingham in the UK has demonstrated that composite genes make up about 5 percent of the gene groups in animal genomes. When viewed from an evolutionary framework, these composite genes don't appear to have accrued gradually in animal genomes but instead arose in bursts at times that correlate with evolutionary innovation. As it turns out, about 40 percent of composite genes appear to have had multiple independent evolutionary origins. In this episode, biochemist Fazale Rana discusses this remarkable study and explores what this new insight means for evolutionary and creation models. RESOURCES: Bursts of Novel Composite Gene Families at Major Nodes in Animal Evolution Additional Resource: Fazale Rana, What If . . . ? Convergence Strengthens the Case for Creation? Infinities and Absurdities The topic of infinity fascinates people and provides for interesting discussions regarding the nature of creation. Often, when discussing infinity, one will hear the claim that actual infinities don't exist because they lead to absurdities. In this episode, astrophysicist Jeff Zweerink provides some background to this assertion and then makes a counter claim that we could apply the same logic to the notion of zero. However, since few rational people would argue that actual zeroes don't exist, Jeff contends that we cannot use some popular arguments about infinities to claim that actual infinities don't exist. RESOURCES: Infinity
In this episode, biochemist Fazale Rana is joined by Brazilian lawyer and philosopher Tassos Lycurgo to discuss how the laws of logic point to the necessary existence of God. In this freewheeling conversation, they also discuss the relationship between mathematics and God and explore other philosophical arguments for God's existence.

Free Will: An Illusion? The prominent neuroscientist Robert Sapolsky has created a stir with the recent publication of his book Determined. Based on a wide range of findings from neuroscience and genetics, Sapolsky argues that free will is an illusion. All of our decisions are predetermined by influences beyond our control. In this episode, biochemist Fazale Rana discusses the radical and far-ranging implications of Sapolsky's dangerous idea, before presenting the scientific evidence, demonstrating that free will really exists. Rana concludes by offering a model for free will based on the Christian worldview. References: Determined: A Science of Life without Free Will

Pig Organs in Humans Recently, research teams from NYU Langone Health, the University of Alabama, Birmingham, and the University of Maryland independently achieved milestones by transplanting kidneys and hearts from genetically engineered pigs into brain-dead patients and terminally ill patients otherwise ineligible for transplants. Xenotransplantation holds the promise to ease the demand for organ transplants but raises a host of ethical questions. In this episode, biochemist Fuz Rana discusses the technical challenges that xenotransplantation must overcome before it can move into the clinical setting. He also describes some of the ethical challenges associated with xenotransplants. Once these challenges are overcome, the questions remain: What should the Christian perspective be on xenotransplantation? Should we “play God”?

Researchers currently utilize AI (artificial intelligence) to diagnose early-stage Alzheimer's, analyze vast databases to discover protein-folding classes (and new protein folds), and determine whether a sample is biotic or abiotic in origin. The AI in the last example also differentiated between recent biotic and fossilized biotic samples. As AI development progresses, one wonders whether it will be able to do science rather than just assist scientists. Fuz and Jeff explore this question in light of recent advances.

Premier Christian philosopher, theologian and apologist William Lane Craig proposes that Adam was Homo heidelbergensis. Who is Homo Heidelbergensis? How did Dr. Craig come to this conclusion? Is his conclusion consistent with the Genesis account and the scientific evidence? Join Pat and Dr. Fazale Rana as they critique Dr. Craig's new book, In the Quest of Historical Adam.
Who was Adam? A new book by premier Christian scholar Dr. William Lane Craig, In the Quest of Historical Adam has created quite a discussion in the Christian world. His conclusions are fascinating but also controversial. What is at the center of the controversy? Join Pat and Dr. Fazale Rana as they critique Dr. Craig's book and discuss his conclusion on the identity of the historical Adam.
Who was Adam? How do the homonids like Neanderthal man and Homo Heidelbergensis and homonins fit in? What kind of literature is Genesis, myth, history or both? These are some tough questions that Christian scientists have been addressing for generations. A new book by premier Christian philosopher, theologian, and apologist, Dr. William Lane Craig, In the Quest of Historical Adam attempts to answer these questions and more. Join Pat and Dr. Fazale Rana as they critique Dr. Craig's book on the historical Adam.
Who was Adam? Was he the result of still ongoing natural processes or a unique creation? In the original publication of Who Was Adam? (2005), biochemist Fazale Rana and astronomer Hugh Ross discussed cutting-edge research in junk DNA, the human fossil record, human and chimp genetic similarities, and more. They proposed a new scientific testable model for human origins. This robust 10-year update provides rigorous testing of the evolution and creation scenarios. New discoveries in genetics and paleoanthropology, especially, provide helpful evidence. How has RTB's biblically aligned model for human origins fared? Can human evolution be declared a fact? Or does a creation model make more scientific sense? We'll interview Fuz Rana and discuss his latest book on the show. Join us here live!Word & Spirit School of Ministry! Registration Opens July 22.

Join Fazale “Fuz” Rana and Sy Garte as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. LUCA's Complexity A research team from the US and the UK discovered that LUCA (the last universal common ancestor) was perhaps more complex than contemporary bacteria and archaea. They used an approach based on physiological features instead of the gene set encoded in LUCA's DNA. In the abstract of their paper, the researchers write: “Our results depict LUCA as likely to be a far more complex cell than has previously been proposed, challenging the evolutionary model of increased complexity through time in prokaryotes. Given current estimates for the emergence of LUCA we suggest that early life very rapidly evolved considerable cellular complexity.” In this episode, Fuz and Sy explore the far-reaching scientific implications of this work, which challenges the mainstream perspective about the mode and tempo for the origin and early evolution of life. They also discuss this work's implications for the design argument and its confirmation of a key prediction of RTB's origin of life model.

While the biological theory of evolution has been successful and made major progress since Darwin's day, there remain fundamental gaps in the theory that have yet to be addressed. These include (1) a mathematical expression in the form of an evolutionary law that isn't tautological or merely descriptive; (2) a more precise definition of fitness; and (3) investigations into the origins of consciousness, human behavior, and other higher functions that appear to be due to things beyond selection of genetic variants. Further explanations of these, as well as of thresholds and discontinuities during evolution, might require the inclusion of paradigms such as teleology and agency in biological science, with theological implications.

Join Jeff Zweerink and Fazale “Fuz” Rana as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, as well as new discoveries that point to the reality of God's existence. Cognitive Bias Studies Research demonstrates that people remember the challenges they face more than the benefits they enjoy. This “headwinds/tailwinds asymmetry” helps explain why both political parties see the electoral college as favoring the other party, why most people see their favorite team as having the most difficult schedule, and why children routinely characterize parents as favoring other siblings. Unfortunately, this asymmetry contributes to a darker side of human behavior in that people who perceive greater challenges and obstacles are more inclined to endorse morally questionable behavior. The Bible helps prevent this asymmetry and provides a prescription to encourage moral behavior. Fine-Tuned DNA Structure Every detail about the structure of DNA is precisely as it must be for life to be possible, reflecting a type of molecular fine-tuning. This fine-tuning comes into focus when biochemists ask “why” questions, such as: Why is DNA made up of the four nucleobases, (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) and not some other set of nucleobases? A chemist from Trinity University Dublin provided insight into this question by demonstrating that the set of nucleobases in DNA uniquely minimizes the harmful impact of a phenomenon called tautomerism, revealing a rationale for the composition of this important biomolecule. This insight raises additional questions: How should we account for the ingenuity and fine-tuning of DNA's structure? Is it the outworking of a historically contingent evolutionary process, or do these features point to a Creator's handiwork? Jeff and Fuz discuss these important topics in this episode of Stars, Cells, and God.

Unfortunately, this asymmetry contributes to a darker side of human behavior in that people who perceive greater challenges and obstacles are more inclined to endorse morally questionable behavior. The Bible helps prevent this asymmetry and provides a prescription to encourage moral behavior. Fine-Tuned DNA Structure Every detail about the structure of DNA is precisely as it must be for life to be possible, reflecting a type of molecular fine-tuning. This fine-tuning comes into focus when biochemists ask “why” questions, such as: Why is DNA made up of the four nucleobases, (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) and not some other set of nucleobases? A chemist from Trinity University Dublin provided insight into this question by demonstrating that the set of nucleobases in DNA uniquely minimizes the harmful impact of a phenomenon called tautomerism, revealing a rationale for the composition of this important biomolecule. This insight raises additional questions: How should we account for the ingenuity and fine-tuning of DNA's structure? Is it the outworking of a historically contingent evolutionary process, or do these features point to a Creator's handiwork? Jeff and Fuz discuss these important topics in this episode of Stars, Cells, and God.

Kyle and Adam are joined by Chandler Juliet to discuss The Babylon Bee's recent ban from Twitter. We also take a look at several suspicious accounts that haven't been banned. Weird. We have another edition of Babylon Bee Radio courtesy of Austin Robinson. He serves up the fakest news you can get. And how could you forget Weakly News with Adam Yenser? You're so insensitive. Dr. Fazale Rana of Reasons To Believe visits The Bee to discuss transhumanism and how it may, or may not, relate to Locutus of Borg. But no one thinks to ask him about Robocop. Sad. Dr. Rana's collected works are available on Amazon, including Humans 2.0: Scientific, Philosophical, and Theological Perspectives on Transhumanism and his most recent work, Fit for a Purpose: Does the Anthropic Principle Include Biochemistry? This episode is also brought to you by My Patriot Supply Also brought to you by… Allegiance Gold Private Internet Access Donors Trust In the Subscriber Lounge™ Kyle is confronted with the fact he's probably possessed by a demon (darn!) and, as always, we review a classic Bee article and Subscriber Headlines of the Week!
