* Wow! Covenant Media Missions: Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart interviews a young couple furthering the Gospel of the Kingdom, Matt & Mercy Hasselblad. From working on box office high-tech hits at Industrial Light & Magic, to a successful programming stint with Google & YouTube, to ministering in the openly racist cities of India for the last two years, Matt and Mercy have gone from living the high-tech American dream to a vision of eternity.

* Creationist Grady McMurtry Grows Beyond Berkley: Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart interviews Dr. Grady McMurtry, tonight's speaker at the Rocky Mountain Creation Fellowship on growing up on the Berkeley Campus (when his dad was a professor there) and the search that converted him from an evolutionist to a God-fearing Christian creationist. The topics discussed include the rapid decay of the Earth's magnetic field with the alleged "reversals" on the seafloor and the frauds perpetrated by the infamous atheist and Darwinist Ernst Haeckel. Oh, and by the way, after earning a Bachelor's of Science in Forest Management from the University of Tennessee and a Master's in Environmental Science from the State University of New York, Dr. McMurtry went on to earn a Doctor of Divinity with a concentration in creation science!

* Atheist and Fraud Perpetrator Ernst Haeckel: created the scam drawings of a fetus to look like a fish and a reptile to support his utterly discredited "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny" and according to the New York Times, March 9, 1907, he was later honored as the founder of the "Association for the Propagation of Ethical Atheism." Ha! Even Richard Dawkins admits in this video that Haeckel's drawings were faked and that today's textbooks should not be propagating his error.

* NY Times Ernst Haeckel Transcript: "KAISER HONORS HAECKEL. Bestows the Title of Excellency on the Famous Atheist. BERLIN, March 8.—Emperor William to-day bestowed on Prof. Ernst Haeckel, the celebrated Darwinian and founder of the Association for the Propagation of Ethical Atheism, the title of Excellency, in honor of his golden jubilee as a doctor."

* Bob Enyart Interviews David Coppedge: Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart and former JPL employee David Coppedge discuss amazing scientific discoveries during this important interview. As a lead administrator for many years, Coppedge was responsible for the ground computers for the Cassini Saturn mission at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which is run by CalTech for NASA.

* Darwinism Disproved: In 2013 a British biology professor, Oxford University's Dr. Denis Noble, argued against Neo-Darwinism in the journal Experimental Physiology. Of great significance, partly because Noble remains a committed evolutionist, nonetheless, he acknolwedged, "that all the central assumptions of the Modern Synthesis (often called Neo-Darwinism) have been disproved." RSR's Bob Enyart and Fred Williams present entertaining and insightful nuggets of wisdom from the current edition of their favorite publication which you can subscribe to at creation.com/magazine.

* The Latest Creation Magazine: is a tour de force against evolution and atheism. Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams love reporting on its articles, but reject one implication, that volcanoes operated during creation week. Walt Brown's Hydroplate Theory explains how the Flood mechanism resulted in all similarly destructive effects: Earth's radioactivity, Earth and lunar craters, etc., earthquakes, volcanism, etc. The following definition is unrelated to the show content.

con·serv·a·tive  noun  \kuhn-'sur-vuh-tiv\  a Republican politician or judge determined to save social programs started by liberals (including Obamacare)

* RSR's Astronomy & Prophecy Show: Real Science Radio host Bob Enyart attempts to rebut the Blood Moon fad popularized by televangelist John Hagee and originated by Pastor Mark Biltz. Basic astronomy explains why lunar eclipses occur in the Spring and Fall, and on Hebrew feast days which themselves are set based on the moon's orbit. Also, these "signs" are typically not even visible in Jerusalem, they don't fall on the 1492 and 1948 years that Rev. Hagee claimed they fall on, and one eclipse hyped by Pastor Biltz was visible only to the few folks living on a couple islands in and near the arctic circle. Astronomer Danny Faulkner joins Bob for the last segment of the program. (This program is based on a recent sermon at Denver Bible Church. Click to subscribe to those sermons!)

Bob appreciates Cahn's warning to an America defiant of God but Enyart disagrees with the claim that 9/11 was a specific sign from God. See there Bob's notes regarding his reasons for disagreeing with Jonathan Cahn's claims of a specific divine message in the events following the Attack on America.

* Cahn/Enyart 2016 Update: If Cahn would have paid closer attention to Bob's comments in their 2013 interview, and had taken the written show summary to heart, he could have averted the embarassment of his failed prophecy of economic collapse for 2015.

* Contrast RSR/BEL vs. the End Times Gurus: Consider the systemic failure of the predictions of the End Times prophecy movement with the astounding confirmations of the BEL and RSR predictions as documented over at rsr.org/predictions. Regarding the Last Days, Bob Enayrt fully affirms Scripture's teaching on the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. However the Lord's return has been imminent since the days of the apostles. As they believed, He could have returned at any moment. Therefore, interpretation of current events as an indicator of His soon return has been biblically flawed, and so the movement's predictions are noteworthy for their complete fallaciousness. We believe that, in contrast to the predictions of the End Times gurus, the Real Science Radio and Bob Enyart Live predictions have an uncanny tendency to be confirmed because we use a more proper understanding of the overview of the Bible. This would be just self-affirmation except that our extensive list of confirmed predictions provide evidence for our claim.

* From the Pot Never Killed Anybody file: Here's a tragic 2015 case from Indiana where a 28-year-old ingested marijuana edibles and proceeded to drive a car and kill two people including a 22-year-old woman. It'd be worthwhile for someone, perhaps you!, to start a listing, on Wikiepedia or somewhere online, of people killed by marijuana use.

Updated April 15, 2021: This topic of the "firmament" is also of great interest to atheists. A popular anti-creationist made a 40-minute YouTube video critical of this article. We may have hit a nerve. A favorite claim of many atheists is that the Bible teaches that the earth is surrounded by a solid domed sky. Instead, the Bible actually teaches that the firmament of Day Two is the crust of the earth, which divided water below the crust from the waters on the surface. Documenting this thereby rebuts that widespread false allegation. When we first published this article, that extra bonus was unexpected. So we've embedded and responded to Brett Palmer's video including by pointing out that the Babylonian creation epic, Enuma Elish, below, corroborates this understanding of the "firmament" as first referring to the earth's crust (i.e., biblically, to paradise, to heaven on earth). And we show that the Bible's Hebrew word for firmament, raqia, from the verb raqa, refers not only to the heavens above, but explicitly, to the crust of the earth. And we present the meaning of the Syrian geographical place name, Raqqa, and extend to antiquity the etymology of the English word, rock.

At Real Science Radio (which airs on America's most-powerful radio station), we teach Dr. Walt Brown's Hydroplate Theory as the best understanding of the global flood, geology and the relevant scriptures. If the following is correct, all flood models based on the "canopy theory" and "plate tectonics" are false.

On Day Two God Made the Crust of the Earth: Dr. Walt Brown's Hydroplate Theory helps to understand the global flood, geology and the relevant scriptures. On Day Two of creation, God formed the crust of the earth, called the firmament (Hebrew: raqia), which extended for miles above a worldwide subterranean ocean, and the crust of course also held waters upon its surface. If this is true, we would expect to read in the Bible that initially, the surface of the earth was covered only with water, and that then God made the earth's crust above the water. And consistent with the Hydroplate Theory (which describes a layer of water at least one-mile thick that was perhaps dozens of miles below the earth's surface), in fact the Bible teaches that God:

- "In the beginning God created... the earth. ...and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters" (Genesis 1:1-2). Then God,
- "laid out (raqa) the earth above the waters" (Psalm 136:6). And,
- "by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth [was] standing out of water and in the water" (2 Peter 3:5).
- "Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament" (Gen. 1:7). So,
"The earth is the Lord’s... For He has founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the waters" (Ps.24:1-2).

Where the Water Came From: The global flood then began when those "fountains of the great deep were broken up" (Gen. 7:11) for the pre-flood earth had been "standing out of water and in the water, by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water" (2 Peter 3:5-6). Those waters had been stored up for global judgment if needed. For when "the heavens were made," the Bible says of much of the Earth's water back then that God "lays up the deep in storehouses" (Ps. 33:6-7; see also Prov. 8:27-28). For God created not only the surface waters, for He "made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters" (Rev. 14:7 KJV [as with many versions; some like the NKJV say "springs of water"). Dr. Brown's book, In the Beginning, demonstrates powerfully that the world's major geologic features flow logically from these initial conditions. But some creationists who disagree point out that, "God called the firmament Heaven" (Gen. 1:8), claiming that this firmament must be either the atmosphere (e.g., Henry Morris) or outer space (e.g., Russell Humphreys).

* Nice Places vs. Lousy Places: Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams follow two news stories to their inevitable conclusion: biblical creationism leads to life and anything less leads to death. And in another classic RSR segment, the guys read off a list (just below) of nice places to live, and of lousy places to live, based on population density.

* World Mag & Christian Examiner Reports: In addition to the Huffington Post infanticide article we mentioned on air, after showtime today, we found out that Bob was quoted by the Christian Examiner in their Home Depot article about an employee admonishing the company for promoting homosexuality, and that Enyart was quoted in World magazine's report on the Longmont, Colorado criminal who ripped a baby from her young mother's womb and kidnapped the child. 

Is the World Overpopulated?
by Bob Enyart 

Six people just survived the sinking of an ocean vessel. They are afloat in a lifeboat with only enough water for five. On board are a doctor, a carpenter, a nurse, a blind elderly woman, a sailor, and a counselor.

Public school students given this scenario over the years were then asked, "Who should be thrown overboard?" Environmentalists designed this exercise to teach public students to solve problems by "eliminating" excess people.

Jacques Cousteau said, "to stabilize the world population we must eliminate 350,000 people per day. It is a horrible thing to say," he admitted, "but it’s just as bad not to say it." This Hitlerian sentiment, published in UNESCO Courier in November 1991, is not rare among envirochondriacs.

Britain’s Prince Philip, president of the Worldwide Fund for Nature, is quoted by The New American’s Robert Lee, Sept. 5, 1994 saying that he would like to be reincarnated as a "killer virus to lower human population levels." Prince HIVlip, perhaps?

How does anyone know there is only enough water for five? Utterly discredited, yet an authority to liberals, is Population Bomb author Paul Ehrlich, who has apparently not had a single prediction come true. America, he declared: would have widespread food rationing by the late 70s, would be "literally dying of thirst" by 1984, and would have 65 million famine deaths in the 80s. [See more politically correct predictions.]

* To Distract from a Planet that Shouldn't Exist: Real Science Radio hosts Bob Enyart and Fred Williams finally get around to enjoying the first 2015 issue of Creation magazine. Anti-creationists have long claimed that if you have water, you'll get life. Now, to distract the public from yet another exoplanet discovery that falsifies the secular planetary nebulae hypothesis, they're claiming that if you have rocks (like on this newly discovered planet), you'll get life.

* As the Universal Solvent Water Isn't a Friend But an Enemy to Abiogenesis: As for water, it's the universal solvent, so while it is necessary to sustain existing life, it would dissolve prebiotic chemicals including amino acids and polymers. And a rock, is a rock, is a rock. So even if it lacked the hydro-enemy of abiogenesis, rocks also lack information. For while information is needed to build any biological system and any rudimentary genetic encoding scheme, unlike rock, information itself is not physical. The bottom line though is that this new discovery is simply piling on to what had already been known. From RSR's Planet Formation Theory Decimated program:

The California Institute of Technology manager of NASA's exoplanet database, Caltech's astronomer Mike Brown, stated: “Before we ever discovered any [planets outside the solar system] we thought we understood the formation of planetary systems pretty deeply… It was a really beautiful theory. And, clearly, thoroughly wrong." 

* Creation Science Hall of Fame, and Other Fun Topics: The guys also discuss:
- the Creation Science Hall of Fame
- scientists stunned yet again by the retina's wiring
- good ole' fashioned tar (maybe real, real, really-old fashioned tar)
- the awesome patterns of evidence for the Jewish patriarchs living in Egypt, and that
- the genius of ancient man enabled the pyramid makers to move massive stones.
