The development of human flight was aided and inspired by observing birds. In the late 15th century, Leonardo da Vinci’s studies of birds led him to create conceptual designs of flying machines that would influence later aerial development. At the turn of the 20th century, the Wright brothers similarly drew inspiration from the flight of birds as they were designing the shape of their record-breaking aircraft. We can learn much when we look to nature.

The biological designs we observe and use for advancements in human engineering showcase our Creator’s skill and creativity. The natural world points us back to God. Nature speaks, telling us that God exists. More than that, it tells us of his wisdom and his power.

Which Requires More Faith: God or Science?
Should we ever expect science to disprove God's existence? And if so, exactly how long do we have to wait and see? Frank investigates the claim that science will eventually find a way.
Bird breathing anatomy breaks dino-to-bird dogma
Dinosaurs living today—in trees?
The BBC program Walking with Dinosaurs proclaimed that we can see and hear dinosaurs outside our windows. Many museums have proclaimed the dinosaur origin of birds as fact, such as the Australian Museum in Sydney and Queensland Museum in Australia. National Geographic was so gung-ho for this idea that they promoted Archaeoraptor, which turned out to be a “Piltdown Bird” forcing an embarrassing retraction.

A recent open-access paper in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science argues that, “Prosocial motives underlie scientific censorship by scientists: A perspective and research agenda.” The 39 named authors include Glenn Loury, John McWhorter, and Steven Pinker. The article explores the nature of censorship in the scientific community today. While it sometimes exhibits its own ideological biases, it nonetheless makes many valid points about the growing dangers of scientific censorship.
...
There’s an easy solution to this problem but it’s one that many censors in the scientific community simply cannot consider. Here it is: Allow people to research and promote ideas that you disagree with.
The censors won’t allow this because they aren’t really seeking truth — they’re seeking to impose an agenda and maintain power structures that suppress ideas that run counter to that agenda. Until that changes, the problem won’t going away — it will only get worse.
