As soon as you hear the name “Darwin”, it’s likely that you will know who he is and think of pictures of the HMS Beagle, the Galapagos Islands, finch beaks, and that very well-known picture of a line-up of monkeys slowly standing up and gradually becoming a human being. But sometimes people don’t really know what Darwin’s theory actual was. In this program, we’ll look at what it was really about.

Evolution Impossible: The Living Cell
When Isaac Newton looked back over his amazing career as a scientist, he said that he just felt like a boy playing on the sea-shore, finding pebbles and shells, when a whole ocean lay before him. Every scientist is very willing to recognise that there is still a lot to be discovered in science.
The same is true of Darwin. The big thing he knew very little about was actually very, very tiny—it’s the living cell. And the big question we are going to address in this program is: “How did life begin?”
Evolution Impossible: Random Mutations
In this program we are talking about one of the most important components of Darwin’s theory of evolution—random mutations. Darwin believed that we all evolved through a series of genetic mutations—we are all mutants of a common ancestor. But is that true? Watch to find out what really happens as the result of mutations.
Evolution Impossible: The Fossil Record
So, it may sound like our discussion is going to be fairly dead in this program—we will be focusing on the remains of animals that are no longer alive, but be assured that this is actually very interesting. What is really surprising is that the fossil record actually supports the Bible and not evolution.
Evolution Impossible: Missing Fossils of Evolutionary Intermediates
One of the key ideas in evolution is that there is a fairly smooth transition from one species of animal to another. So, there should have been a whole lot of animals in between fish and reptiles, and similarly between dinosaurs and birds. This should mean that there are lot of fossils of these intermediate animals. The question is—do these fossils exist? It feels like a little bit of a detective story, looking for the links in the chain.
How does the evolutionary process work and why would we be looking for these fossils in the middle between different animals? Find out in this program.
Evolution Impossible: Geological Evidence for a Catastrophic Global Flood
One of the landmark events in the Bible is the Flood, which the book of Genesis tells us covered the whole Earth. That would be a pretty incredible flood, and yet some scholars maintain that the flood was only a local event which impacted a region in the Middle East. But what we want to know is: where does the scientific evidence point? Does it point to a local flood or a Global Flood?
Evolution Impossible: Historical Evidence for a Worldwide Flood
Last time we explored the geological evidence for a catastrophic global Flood. But of course, there are still animals and people living on Earth today, so not all life would have been destroyed in that event. If there were people who survived, then there may be other historical evidence for a global catastrophe like that. In this program, we look at this evidence.
Evolution Impossible: Erosion & Sedimentation vs Radiometric Dating Ages
One 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!
Evolution Impossible: Major Problems with Radiometric Dating
Figuring out the age of something in nature is not always an easy task. However, there is one dating method that scientists tell us is really simple and very reliable, and that is Radiometric Dating. It is like reading the time off clocks in the rocks. But does radiometric dating really tell us the true age of the rocks? That’s what we are exploring in this program.
Evolution Impossible: The Big-Bang Theory
In this program, we will travel back in time to the very beginning—to the Big Bang itself. Sound like an explosive topic? Actually, you may be surprised to find that the concept, that the Big Bang was an explosion in space, isn’t what cosmologists actually teach. If that sounds intriguing, come with us on this journey.
