RSR'S Timesaving Google Creation ToolMultiple Creation Site Search!

Welcome to Real Science Radio: Co-hosts Fred Williams and Doug McBurney talk about science to debunk evolution and to show the evidence for the creator God including from biology, genetics, geology, history, paleontology, archaeology, astronomy, philosophy, cosmology, math, and physics. (For example, mutations will give you bad legs long before you'd get good wings.) We get to debate Darwinists and atheists like Lawrence Krauss, AronRa, and Eugenie Scott. We easily take potshots from popular evolutionists like PZ Myers, Phil Plait, and Jerry Coyne. The RSR Archive contains our popular List Shows! And we interview the outstanding scientists who dare to challenge today's accepted creed that nothing created everything.

RSR airs every Friday at 3pm MST on AM 670 KLTT in Denver, Colorado. For rebroadcast times and podcast platforms, see our Affiliates page.

List of Collapsing Natural Bridges/Geological Formations

Related: Four days after this RSR program aired, the European Space Agency
announced they had photographed an actual landslide on Comet 67P,
an allegedly four billion year-old flying pile of rounded boulders and ice,
yet another TESS phenomenon, i.e., the Transient Events of the Solar System.

* Dozens of Recently Fallen Geological Attractions: Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams present a list of dozens of notable geologic features, many of them claimed to have formed over hundreds of thousands or millions of years, which have recently collapsed. However, if Earth's geological tourist attractions of structures like spires and arches actually were that old, then mathematically, we would not expect to see gravity destroying so many of them so rapidly. The old-earth model and its rejection of the global flood is challenged by the observation that on average over the past half century, more than one collapse of a notable arch or other geological attraction occurs per year, without anything like an offsetting replacement formation rate of new gravity-defying attractions. Thus these thousands of known geological features were formed by an intensity of geological processes not at work today and the population of them, far from being steady, is dwindling.

* List of Collapsing Bridges and other Geological Formations: We thank Creation magazine and David Catchpoole for assembling his list of Earth's collapsing "ancient" features which then became the beginning of our own. So as a subset of TESS, our List of the Transient Events in the Solar System, here are the collapsed notable arches, etc. with no similar number of offsetting arches forming.
- Eye of the Needle on the Missouri River in Montana, the famous Lewis and Clark arch, first documented in 1805, which collapsed evidently from natural causes in 2002.
- Malta's Azure Window, the picturesque limestone arch on the famed Mediterranean island, is no longer as of March 7, 2017. Unlike many of the other formations in this list, an ancient heritage is not claimed for the Azure Window, but instead, that if formed a mere 500 years ago. (And still standing are 25 more arches on Malta's islands including the nearby Wied il-Mielah "Window".)
- London Bridge in South Australia was a natural arch formation on the coast that, since 1990, is no longer.

Darwin's Arch fell (as a metaphor for his theory's collapse)
Darwin's demise 2021

- Darwin's Arch in the Galapagos Islands fell on May 17, 2021, the event becoming a metaphor for the collapse of the guy's theory. [As documented at rsr.org/list, Darwin's finches can adapt in 17 years, not needing the 2.3 million presumed by evolutionists. A single finch species introduced to a U.S. Bird Reservation in the Pacific in only 17 years had diversified their beaks, related muscles, and behavior to fill various ecological niches, just like Darwin's finches.]

Real Science Radio Interviews Bestselling Author of Gosnell

* America's Most Prolific Serial Killer: RSR host Bob Enyart interviews Phelim McAleer, co-author with his wife Ann McElhinney, of Gosnell: The untold story of America's most prolific serial killer, about Philadelphia's abortionist Kermit Gosnell. As a spokesman for American Right To Life and a 25-year talk radio host, Enyart brings a unique perspective to the interview. Bob was thankful when McAller described the horror, not only of Gosnell's "bad" abortions but even of the 40,000 "good" abortions committed by one of the witnesses at Gosnell's trial, which testimony caused even the urban "pro-choice" jury to gasp.

Abortionist Kermit Gosnell convicted of murderBob also appreciated McAller's willingness to describe Gosnell's abortion mill as an indicator of what the abortion industry itself is like.

Cold-Case Detective Finds an Intruder in the Universe

Det. J. Warner Wallace

* Cold-case detective on RSR: Bob Enyart interviews J. Warner Wallace, cold-case homicide detective and adjunct professor of apologetics at Biola University about his books, God's Crime Scene and Cold-Case Christianity. Det. Wallace applies crime scene investigation techniques to the universe to determine if God is the most reasonable inference for the evidence.

* Forensic science is a type of historical science: Not unlike Det. Wallace, Real Science Radio applies the concept of forensic investigation to the study of the universe and so beyond its customary criminal context. On a related matter, C.S. Lewis in Christian Reflections, pg. 77, wrote that, "If popular thought feels ‘science’ to be different from all other kinds of knowledge because science is experimentally verifiable, popular thought is mistaken. Experimental verification is not a new kind of assurance coming in to supply the deficiencies of mere logic. We should therefore abandon the distinction between scientific and non-scientific thought. The proper distinction is between logical and non-logical thought." Likewise, RSR notes a gradual broadening of the concept of forensics to include the use of scientific investigation to determine what events may have occurred in the past, whether criminal or not. (Examples include the "forensic investigation" of meteorites, soil engineeringEgyptian mummies, wetlandsfossilsplate tectonics, disastersNeanderthals, American historyall history, and supernovae.)

* The interview's unexpected development: An unexpected development in the interview occurred when Wallace, a defender of America's criminal justice system, and Bob Enyart, an outspoken critic, disagreed with each other over Bob's widely quoted assessment that, "It's no longer a justice system, now it's just a system." With Det. Wallace praising the jury system, Bob referred to it as "justice by committee" and pointed out that juries provide zero accountability, even when evidently guilty murderers are freed to commit more crime, for they are staffed by essentially anonymous individuals who immediately disband after rendering their verdict. (See also kgov.com/crime.) The guys did agree, however, that, biblically speaking, the two or three witnesses necessary for a conviction do not need to be eyewitnesses (physical and circumstantial evidence can do just fine). But then, briefly, they disagreed on the ubiquitous claim that America has "the best system in the world."

Targeted Antibody Cancer Treatment: Overview of the Revolution

2020 Updates: RSR interviews an antibodies CEO and regularly updates this survey of the field

The mainstream media should be running weekly headlines
updating the public on the latest progress with targeted antibody treatment.
For some reason though, for now, if you want to keep up with the latest astounding
cancer treatment developments, you'll have to keep tuning in to BEL and Real Science Radio!

* How Can This Help a Cancer Patient? (Updated: 3/20/20) Medicine's still in the early years of cancer immunotherapy treatment. So don't assume that your oncologist will know or, knowing, even recommend such. Rather, you can ask your doctor if he knows whether targeted antibody (immunotherapy) treatment and open trials are available for your particular cancer. (And, if you're wealthy, for various reasons, request a full genome sequence of your cancer!) First though, you may want to listen to today's program and carefully read this article!

50-year-old lung cancer sufferer in his hospice bed, recovered!
50-year-old lung cancer sufferer in hospice, recovered!

* Lung Cancer Too: Incredible results should not give false hope to all sufferers, but cautious hope to many. A British media report on a late-stage lung cancer "cure" using antibody treatment (immunotherapy) virtually cured a bedridden hospice patient with advanced lung cancer that has metastasized to his lymph nodes. His oncologist gave this 50-year-old two weeks to live (though such estimates can be notoriously wrong). But two weeks after his antibody treatment with the drug called Opdivo, a drug already available in the U.S., he recovered and returned home, even though previously, his lung cancer already had spread to his vocal cords and lymph nodes. Check out also, "...'remarkable' success fighting end-stage lung cancer in trials, experts say. It is also effective against other cancers" and listen to this report here on BEL.

* Jan 2020 Update: Three papers published together in the journal Nature have added to our targeted antibody arsenal new powerful weapons called B-cells and the in-tumor factories that make them. RSR hopes that with so many major breakthroughs, by 2022, immunotherapy will move to the top of the treatment ladder.

* Feb 2019 Update: Here are two from among the BEL listeners who've had a positive experience asking their oncologists about targeted antibodies. First, Brad H. from Vancouver, BC (kgov.com/brad-2015) called off-air on 2/14/19. His father, who's bladder was removed as its cancer spead to his lymph nodes, had two rounds of chemo with no apparent benefit. Brad thanks BEL for suggesting that patients urge their oncologist to explore immunotherapy. For now, a year after being accepted into a trial, Brad's father appears to be cancer free! Then, RSR listener Tom Healey, 83, passed away after asking for and then receiving an immunotherapy treatment that, while it didn't overcome his deteriorated heath, did enable his own marrow to again produce red blood cells!

Living Drug: Targeted Antibodies for Childhood Leukemia

* April 2019 Update: More than 1 in 4 go into full remission in small lymphoma immunotherapy trial, now going into larger clinical trial including for breast and head-and-neck cancers. (And see below; this article has been updated throughout 2019!)

* June 2018 Update: Florida woman cured of advanced breast cancer. See the BBC's report on the U.S. National Cancer Institute's amazing success with Judy Perkins, given three months to live and now recovered and still thriving [as of 2019] three years after her cure from the most common form of breast cancer!

* Oct 2018 Update: Two cancer immunotherapy researchers win the 2018 Nobel Prize in Medicine!

* Targeted Antibodies Cancer Treatment Revolution: Among the stunning results for targeted antibodies cancer treatment, CBS News reported on 35 terminally-ill advanced-stage leukemia sufferers. The disease went into remission in 94%, or 33 of 35 patients. Dr. Michael Grossbard, New York University's Perlmutter Cancer Center leukemia specialist told CBS News, "Oncologists are reluctant to use the word extraordinary. But these [results] are extraordinary. These are really remarkable findings..."

* FDA Approval: The FDA has approved Novartis' Kymriah to treat children with acute leukemia. Because various methods of cancer immunotherapy exist, the media and even the FDA itself will claim one or another of these early immunotherapy drugs (see below for those already approved in the U.S.) as a "first". Methods include checkpoint inhibitors and the actual modification of antibodies. See below for more. But first, there's this, right up the street from RSR's studio...

12-year-old Colorado girl's stunning before and after cancer treatment scans* ArcherDX in Boulder, Colorado: ArcherDX spearheaded the effort to extend the life of 12-year old Zaida. Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart interviews ArcherDX CEO Jason Myers to discuss Zaida's case and to get a better understanding both of this revolution in cancer treatment and of how targeted immunotherapy works. Studies in the U.S. and the U.K. are seeing hundreds of patients with many types of cancer virtually "cured", as some oncologists are now putting it. Not every patient though responds well, and some few have even died from the treatment. Update: Sadly, Zaida herself passed away on March 10, 2017 and while RSR would like to learn the specific cause, of course the family's privacy desires comes first. Overall though, the widespread success is stunning. ArcherDX provides the technology so that a patient's doctor can find out quickly what specific mutations may be causing the cancer. Now, a growing number of oncologists will be offering their patients the greatest of hope through individualized treatment that, like an archer aiming at a target, just might hit the bullseye. Online at ArcherDX.com, this next-generation sequencing (NGS) firm develops what is called target enrichment chemistry.

* Cancers Already Being Successfully Treated: People suffer from more than 100 major types of cancer. And while antibody treatment has resulted in some relatively rare autoimmune or other negative and even lethal side effects, the more common positive treatment experiences range in degree, from significantly extending life expectancy, stopping further tumor growth, and actually shrinking tumors, to major remission, and even to apparent cure. The types of cancer already being successfully treated with immunotherapy, using either the inhibitor or the re-targeting approach, include:
- Lung cancer (non-small cell with 30-50% response rates as of Feb. 2017)
- Childhood leukemia / leukemia
- Hodgkin lymphoma
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma
- Lymph node cancer
- Melanoma skin cancer (Updates: 2018; 2019)
- Forms of breast cancer (including some success with TNBC)
- Kidney (r
enal cell) carcinoma (Update12/2019
- Bladder (urothelial) cancer
- Head cancers
- Neck cancers

(Please don't hesitate to email updates to this list to Bob@rsr.org.)

* Targeted Antibodies Trials, Success Stories, News, and RSR Broadcasts: The public awareness of the current revolution in cancer antibody treatment should explode in the 2020s. As with all medicines, patients respond with great variability. However, the following results and ongoing trials are greatly encouraging:
- 2019: Progression-free breast cancer survival improves in a Phase III trial for more than a quarter of the women using antibody drug Margetuximab.
- 2019: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most common type of lung cancer, now in first-ever human trials for a vaccine-type treatment.
- 2019: Late-stage prostate cancer patients in recombinant virus vaccine trial.
- 2019: AI software discovers patterns in lung cancer CT scans that indicate whether a patient is likely or not to benefit from immunotherapy (which is still expensive enough to deplete within a year the life savings of nearly half of patients on it).  

Creation Evolution Headlines II with David Coppedge on RSR

David Coppedge* CREV Headlines on RSR: Bob Enyart welcomes back to Real Science Radio the former JPL employee David Coppedge to once again discuss amazing scientific discoveries. Coppedge is a former NASA Cassini Saturn mission lead ground systems administrator and author of the Creation-Evolution Headlines site over at crev.info. One might think that by now, secular scientists would have figured out how the Moon go there, it being the closest of all celestial bodies. Yet, while they want people to believe that they can explain how the universe got here, the galaxies, the stars, and the planets, in reality, they can't even explain how the Moon got here. The guys also discuss how the latest discoveries about Pluto and Ceres once again fundamentally contradict the secular worldview. And the guys discuss yet another mammal that ate dinosaurs, biomimetics, and the grotesque inhumanity inspired by Darwinism.

EVENTS -- RIDDLE: 7 p.m. Thurs., Feb. 2nd hear creationist Mike Riddle in Arvada, Colorado at Peace Lutheran Church and again there from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Sat., Feb. 4th attend Mike's "Beginning Creation Training" seminar!

ORIGIN, the film!

origin-film-illustra.jpg
From award-winning Illustra Media

* RSR Interviews Illustra Media's Science Film Producer: Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart welcomes back Lad Allen of Illustra Media to discuss his latest film, ORIGIN: Design, Chance and the First Life on Earth. Featuring scientists Paul Nelson and Ann Gauger (and narration by Alvin Chea of Take Six), ORIGIN presents spectacular computer animation and cutting-edge research to examine the question that has baffled science: How did life on Earth begin? Today, most researchers insist it arose through simple chemistry that—without direction or plan—transformed inanimate matter into the first living cell. Yet, this explanation is devoid of evidence and unsatisfying, even to many of its most ardent supporters. As ORIGIN exposes the flaws of materialistic theories, you’ll travel through a molecular universe to encounter extraordinary biological engineering fundamental to the survival of every organism that has ever existed, engineering that points clearly to intelligence and mind. RSR recommends: Buy ORIGIN now, at Amazon.com on DVD or Blu-ray!

* Protein Sequence Analog from Physics: Discussing the 2018 Nobel Prize in physics, University of Nottingham's Prof. Mike Merrifield said, "Unfortunately, of all the many ways of sticking things together, 99.999% of them are complete rubbish." And with proteins, add a bunch more nines, and you get the idea.

 One Dead Protein: Bob Enyart points out that even if a trillion universes all pulled together to overcome the odds of a protein forming and folding by chance, with that natural processes producing a first protein... so what? All you'd have is a single, non-living protein molecule. (By the way, Bob ran this by Dr. James Tour at rsr.org/tour.)

* Anti-Darwinist from Cambridge-based Protein Center on RSR: Hear Dr. Doug Axe at rsr.org/axe describe how Darwinism retarded science (as its often done) terribly slowing down the world's leading scientists from recognizing that the functional proteins have minimal tolerance and are very dependent upon the order of the amino acids that constitute them.

* #AloneTogether: For our coronavirus quarantine Lad Allen and Illustra Media have uploaded the full Origin film so we can all freely watch it at home. Thank you Lad!

* See BEL's Own Evolution Simulation Software: We've paid out $2,000 so far to people running our simulator at rsr.org/evolve! Too fun!

* 2020 Update: Published Oxford University research on their hoped for "extraterrestrial life" finds evolutionary events likely "extraordinarily improbable, even in conducive environments" and "expected evolutionary transition times likely exceed the lifetime of Earth, perhaps by many orders of magnitude." So, "Our results corroborate the original argument suggested by Brandon Carter that intelligent life in the Universe is exceptionally rare" and "provides a number of testable predictions, such as... that planets orbiting M dwarf stars are uninhabitable." Popular Mechanics summed it up, "Intelligent Life Really Can't Exist Anywhere Else."

* AloneTogether Coronavirus DBC Sermon: Updated 3/29/20, here's Pastor Bob's sermon using animation from Origin...

* For the First Monday that Donald Trump Woke Up in the White House: (post-show update) See the full-page Washington Times ad run by Colorado Right To Life to urge the Congress, the Supreme Court, and the new Trump administration, to learn what is right and to do what is right, by the most innocent among us.

Bryan Nickel Answers Oard's "Linear Crack" Hydroplate Theory Objection

RSR's Global Flood & Hydroplate Theory video* Why Is There A Crack that Circles the Earth? Today's Real Science Radio program is the seventh in our continuing series, RSR's List of Answers to Hydroplate Theory Objections. Mechanical engineer Bryan Nickel talks with Bob Enyart about Michael Oard's objection to the global manner in which Walt Brown’s flood model presents the failure of the Earth's crust. Mr. Oard's critique of Dr. Brown's theory appears on creation.com, the (fabulous) website run by CMI, Creation Ministries International. If pressure in a subterranean chamber (the great deep) built up, Michael questions why the crust would "burst in a linear fashion" as explained by the HPT, and "not through one or several openings... as one would expect." Nickel explains the answer to Michael's objection using super slow-motion YouTube videos, and based on the laws of physics, and as found in Walt's book, In the Beginning. Also, Bryan clarifies Oard's statement, making it clear that the HPT does not claim that the fountains burst forth "through the MOR [mid-oceanic ridge]" but that before the flood, there was no MOR! Rather, the globe-encircling mid-oceanic ridge is a scar left over from the fountains and roughly traces the crack.

* Super Slow Motion Video Illustrates Linear Failure: As explained by mechanical engineer Bryan Nickel, because of factors including
- elastic strain
- a form of potential energy known as strain energy
- kinetic energy
- stress concentration
materials commonly fail in a linear fashion, as illustrated by these super slow motion videos...
