Answers in Genesis, a self-described Christianity-defending ministry dedicated to enabling Christians to defend their faith and to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ effectively, recently launched a new publication, Answers Research Journal. Their mission:

Addressing the need to disseminate the vast fields of research conducted by creationist experts in theology, history, archaeology, anthropology, biology, geology, astronomy, and other disciplines of science, Answers Research Journal will provide scientists and students the results of cutting-edge research that demonstrates the validity of the young-earth model, the global Flood, the non-evolutionary origin of “created kinds,” and other evidences that are consistent with the biblical account of origins.

As their parental organization teaches, “facts” don’t speak for themselves, but must be interpreted. All I can say is……….Wow.

The work submitted to this journal will be peer-reviewed and hopes to encourage Christians with the latest and best research providing the truth from “the perspective of the recent Creation and the global Flood within a biblical framework.”

Best of all, this is an open-access journal, so you can feel free to peruse the three papers that have been reviewed and published for Volume 1:

1. Proceedings of the Microbe Forum

2. Microbes and the Days of Creation

3. Catastrophic Granite Formation (In the spirit of full disclosure, the third paper is actually by the Editor-in Chief)

I’m going to refrain from giving an opinion, so as not to bias your views of the journal, although I STRONGLY encourage you to give me your opinion below. Happy reading!
