Here’s a fascinating report on the recently concluded “ocean census” (full report here).  As one of the researchers notes:

“At the end of the Census of Marine Life, most ocean organisms still remain nameless and their numbers unknown,” said biologist Dr. Nancy Knowlton of the Smithsonian Institution, leader of the Census’ coral reef project.

“This is not an admission of failure. The ocean is simply so vast that, after 10 years of hard work, we still have only snapshots, though sometimes detailed, of what the sea contains. But it is an important and impressive start.” 

“And God said, ‘Let the waters teem with living creatures….’” (Gen. 1:20)

This is a great video from Os Guiness. This is another one that I think any pastor of young adults must take to heart.

There is a great post on BioLogos by Rachel Evans, in addition to the video below.  I think any pastor involved with young adults needs to listen carefully to Rachel’s story.

This week I’ll be at the Pastoral Science conference at Regent College in Vancouver. I’m incredibly excited about this conference — it’s the sort of thing I’ve been hoping to become involved with for quite a while.  Internet access will be limited, but I’ll post when I get back.

A new genetic study confirms that humans and Neanderthals interbred.  This is fascinating in its own right, and truly intriguing with respect to the faith-and-science connection.

This is the conclusion of a good video series on cosmic fine tuning arguments.  Notice the careful use of modest natural theology.

On BioLogos, Pete Enns offers a good discussion of the differences between the Gen. 1 and Gen. 2 creation narratives.
