God created. The Bible says so.

Science confirms it.

1. The Bible’s Witness (were you there? No, only God was!) 2. Information (DNA blueprint for life, information only comes from a mind) 3. Formation of First Life (spontaneous generation is impossible)

4. Design and Beauty of Living Things (explain metamorphosis!) 5. Second Law of Thermodynamics (things naturally deteriorate) 6. Irreducible Complexity (all parts of a complex system are needed)

7. Existence of the Universe (created itself from nothing? Really??) 8. Fine-tuning of Physics (inter-related forces are finely balanced) 9. Fine-tuning of Earth for Life (right distance from the Sun, water)

10. Abrupt Appearance in the Fossil Record (oldest fully formed) 11. Human Consciousness (the mind is more than the brain) 12. Human Reasoning and Logic (just chemical reactions in the brain?) 13. Sexual Reproduction (matching male and female independently?) 14. Morality (our sense of right and wrong) 15. Miracles (violations of natural law by reliable witnesses)

The Bible teaches a “young” Earth

Interpretation is influenced by assumptions and biases!

A mousetrap has: Platform / Base Spring Hammer Catch Holding Bar

Take one part away and it will no longer function as a mousetrap!

Chrysalis (complete chemical dissolution of the caterpillar and re-formation of the tissues of the butterfly)

From “No Excuses!”

Nano-tugboat. A kinesin molecule "walks" along a biopolymer "track" by alternately attaching and disconnecting each of two "feet," hauling cellular cargo in its wake

From “No Excuses!”

Has many problems, including: 1. Conditions that create amino

acids rapidly destroy proteins 2. Had to start with pure

compounds not normally found in nature

3. Had to carefully control how energy was added to the system

4. Had strategic trap to remove products before they were destroyed

5. Produced both left and right-handed forms

Simulation experiments have not produced life!

From “Signature in the Cell”

Evolutionary View Creation View

No information

Much information

Gradual increase over time with no intelligence (via mutation)

Much information in each created kind from mind of God

Degradation over time due to the fall (build up of mutations)

Kind diversifies into species due to environmental differences expressing different subsets of existing information

First Life

Note: mutation / natural selection only operates after the first replicating life form exists

Species 1

Species 2

From “Does Evolution Have a Source of Genetic Information?”

Natural selection selects from already existing information and causes a loss of information

Thrive in Cold Thrive in Hot

From “Noah’s Ark – Could it be True?”

The flood explains the geologic column

Fossils very rare

Fossils relatively abundant

From “Are You a Christian Atheist on Origins?”

All major body plans appear at the same time in the fossil record, with no trace of prior ancestors

The fossil record supports creation not evolution

Dinosaurs fit well into biblical history!

From “Dinosaurs and the Bible”

Dinosaur bone supposedly 65 million years old still has

“fresh appearance” and elastic tissue!
