GOD'S
GRAND DESIGN
As the archeologist proceeds with his "dig," he will readily identify
pieces of pottery, tools, etc., as "man made." He will easily see in
these things the evidence of design and distinguish them from natural
materials. Likewise, many features of our universe will convince the
unprejudiced mind of their inherent design. Consider the dance of honeybees
directing others to new nectar sources. Think of the gorgeous rings of
Saturn---billions of bits of matter orbiting in such tidy formation. What about
spiral galaxies and binary stars? Don't these compel the open-minded person to
admit God created? Microscopic bacteria have an actual "rotary motor"
that rotates their flagellum and propels them through liquid. The genetic
coding material, or DNA, of all living cells, though microscopic, packs more
information than five sets of encyclopedias. The thymus gland in our immune
system must produce a squad of "killer cells." Each and every
squad is specifically targeted against just one kind of the hundreds of
millions of things that invade our bodies. Perhaps the most persuasive
evolutionist argument has been that of homology. Similar
structures, such as the arms of apes and man, are said to be homologous and to
demand a common ancestor. Now, molecular biologists know these structures are
specified by different genes in different creatures. Thus the
implication is actually for a common designer, not a common ancestor.
The same is true in embryology. High-tech photography inside the womb shows
that development of the embryo is unique in each species. It does not
recapitulate (retrace) alleged evolutionary steps as has long been claimed by
evolutionists. What a miracle the growing process. All our parts grow together
in such perfect harmony!
ENERGY
AND THE LAW OF ENTROPY The laws of thermodynamics truly demand special creation. These
two, thoroughly proven laws of science are among the most fundamental physical
laws of the entire universe. In fact they are often simply called the First and
Second Laws. The First Law says energy cannot be created nor destroyed. The
Second Law says whenever energy changes forms, though no energy is lost, it
becomes more random and less useful. Or put another way, any physical system
left to itself tends to move spontaneously toward disorganization. That is, entropy
increases. But, evolution requires the opposite of this, a spontaneous decrease
in randomness and an escalating complexity of life.
NO REAL FOSSIL
EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION The fossil evidence confirms creation. In 1859 when Darwin published
his Origin of Species, there had not been enough fossils discovered to
decide the issue. Today, the evidence is in, and it shows life burst
forth suddenly in completed forms. The so-called oldest sedimentary
rocks, called Precambrian, while containing single cell microbial forms and
micro-fossils, show no actual trace of evolutionary ancestors to the complex
multicellular invertebrates that explode onto the scene to mark the
"Cambrian" boundary. Archaeopteryx, the alleged reptile-bird transition
is the most popular "transitional form" found in evolutionist-oriented
textbooks. But, Sir Fred Hoyle, the prominent British scientist, in his book Archaeopteryx
the Primordial Bird, "a case of fossil forgery," says that
someone took a small fossil, put cement on it, and pressed a modern feather
into the cement to create a forgery. The person then sold it to the British
Museum for 36,000 gold marks, a hefty sum in 1861. The missing links are
simply, missing!
ELUSIVE MUTATION MECHANISM Evolution is a theory entirely lacking of a
credible mechanism. Natural selection cannot produce NEW genes; it can only select from
among preexisting genetic material. God, and blind chance, are the only two
conceivable sources for genetic information. Mutations are the only proposed
mechanism whereby new genetic material becomes available for evolution. The
catch is, that rarely, if ever, is a mutation beneficial to an organism
in its natural environment. Almost all observable mutations are harmful; many
are lethal. Through eighty years of radiation bombardment experiments with
fruit flies, involving 3000 consecutive generations, no clear genetic
improvement has ever been observed despite the many unnatural efforts to
increase mutation rates. Variations within the gene pool of a particular kind
of animal, yes, evolution of new kinds of animals, NO!
Evolution is a theory entirely without a believable mechanism. Many
animal kinds have become extinct as shown by the fossil record. NO animal
has EVER been OBSERVED to evolve! Ever! So, mutations indicate genetic
information was just, plain, created by God.
STATISTICAL SIMULATIONS OF EVOLUTION The force of statistical
probability mandates creation. Evolution totally fails under statistical
"modeling." It turns out there are just not enough possible
interactions between particles in the history of the whole known universe to
satisfy the infinitesimally remote odds. The odds of evolving one living cell
by chance are 1 in 10 to the 2000th power, but the whole known universe only
contains 10 to the 80th power of atoms. So evolution is the longest "long
shot" one could possibly bet on. The impossibly remote statistical odds
are often obscured by the introduction of a bogus time frame---billions of
years. But, most dating methods show the Earth to be less than 10,000 years
old. The mind-boggling impact of such immense and phony time periods tends to
obscure the insurmountable character of the odds that do exist regardless
of the time span. Sir Fred Hoyle, a prominent British scientist said,
"Imagine a tornado sweeping through a junk yard, and as it passes on its
way, there in its wake is a brand new Boeing 747 jumbo jet, which of course,
has been fashioned and assembled by random chance out of the junk in the
yard." So, there is really no statistical chance at all that life evolved!
I am God and there is none like me, declaring the end from the
beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying , My
counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure; Book of Isaiah, chapter 46.
IN
LESS THAN 10,000 YEARS Almost all dating methods favor a young Earth. Evolution
requires billions of years to achieve even a ghost of a chance. And it is only that, a
ghost.
Primordial
Polonium Radio Haloes: Tiny specks of Polonium 218, a radioactive material encased in granite
bedrock, have produced small spherical discolorations. Polonium 218 has a very
short "half-life" of only 3 minutes and becomes extinct in a
few hours. BUT, bedrock must be solid for polonium to make these tiny
haloes. Thus, trillions of tiny polonium radio haloes show that earth's
bedrocks were miraculously created, probably instantly, or supernaturally
cooled so quickly, these polonium radio haloes formed in the solid rock before
these radioactive elements could become extinct.
Cooling Time of
the Earth: A
prominent geophysicist and his graduate students have computed the earth's
cooling time, from a molten state, at a maximum of 44 million years.
This takes into account radioactivity. Evolutionists claim, however, that
dinosaurs lived 70 million years ago. But, with Earth's bed rocks SOLID
to begin with, as the polonium haloes indicate, the earth's cooling time would
be just thousands of years. This approximates and is consistent with the 6000-year
chronology of the Bible.
Carbon-14
dating: The
production rate of C-14 in the atmosphere exceeds the decay rate by about 30%
When this non equilibrium data is used instead of the unwarranted evolutionary
assumption of equilibrium, computed dates of all the organic materials fall
within 10,000 years. If the atmosphere really were old, by now, these
two rates would be in equilibrium. Thus, the disparity in the two rates
confirms a young atmosphere. Oil, coal, natural gas, and other items
evolutionists suppose are very old have been dated by C-14. But,
this should not be possible because this dating method is no good past about
50,000 years. So, the ability to date coal, oil, etc., shows these materials
are recent.
Magnetic field: Direct measurements of the
earth's magnetic field over the past 140 years show a steady and rapid decline
in its strength. The half-life of the Earth's magnetic field is about 1400
years. This decay pattern is consistent with the theoretical view that there is
an electrical current inside the earth, which produces the magnetic field. If
this view were correct, then 25,000 years ago the electrical current would have
been so large that the earth's structure could not have survived the heat
produced. By the way, the sheer existence of the earth's magnetic field is a
miracle of creation. The surprisingly rapid decline in the earth's magnetic
field, when compared to the maximum possible, original, field strength, argues
very strongly for a young earth. We assume, of course, that the magnetic field
was created at the same time as the earth itself.
Atmospheric
gases: Out
atmosphere has less than 40,000 years worth of helium, based on just the
production of helium from the decay of uranium and thorium. (The decay of radioactive
materials is the only natural source of Helium). There is no known way for
large amounts of helium to escape our atmosphere. Our atmosphere must be young.
Moon dust: If the moon were billions
of years old, it should have accumulated extensive layers of space dust,
possibly a mile in thickness. Before instruments were placed on the moon, NASA
scientists were very concerned our astronauts would sink into a sea of dust.
This did not happen; there is very little space dust on the moon. Conclusion: the
moon must be young.
Decay of the
Speed of Light: Two Australian scientists have collected, from scientific articles,
data indicating the speed of light has not been constant as most of us
were taught, but has really been decreasing. This seems to be confirmed
by the words of earlier scientist. The speed of light may have been ten million
times faster at one time. Thus, the light from the most distant star may have
arrived within seconds of when God made the star. The two men think the
permeability of free space is changing and with it the speed of light. Since
light is an atomic process, atomic run-rates would change and this means
radiometric dates must be recalculated. A rock said to be 4 billion years
old, would really be just 6-7000 years old. Also, a National Bureau of
Standards' scientist has shown that atomic clocks are slowing down compared to
the periods of orbiting celestial bodies.
Oil gushers: Abnormally high gas and oil
well pressures within relatively permeable rock imply these fluids were formed
or encased less than 10,000 years ago. Otherwise, natural leakage would have
reduced their pressure to a level far below what it is today.
A great flood
best explains geology: If sedimentary rock layers formed over long ages, we should
find tree roots and meteorites imbedded in the layers. We don't find any! In
some places many layers are bent smoothly without any cracks. This confirms
that these layers were still soft when bent. Dead bodies need rapid burial to
form fossils; otherwise they rot or get eaten. Furthermore, sedimentary rocks
are cemented together by some cementing agent. Calcium carbonate is a common
agent, the same one used in commercial cement. We all know concrete "sets
up" rapidly. Thus, fossil bearing rock formations must have been formed
quite rapidly. Many layers extend thousands of miles, some even covering most
of North America. The great Biblical, Genesis Flood, of Noah and the Ark, best
explains these features.
SCRIPTURE SPECIFIES SPECIAL CREATION The Bible consistently states that GOD
CREATED. This plain language leaves NO possibility God sat by
while the world evolved. The fulfillment of Bible prophesies in their appointed
times proves that the text in which they are imbedded IS the true Word
of God. The Almighty Creator commands those legions of atoms to show up in
the right place at the right time turning Bible prophesies into history.
A fairy tale for
grownups Dr.
Louis Bounoure, a prominent Swiss scientist of the past, said,
"Evolution is a fairy tale - for grownups! The theory has helped
nothing in the progress of science. It is useless."
God's
glory and greatness
shine brightly in all He has made. We give thanks for good things He has
given. The reason and need for redemption is the FALL
of a perfect creation. I CAN confirm Special Creation and the
Genesis Flood by evidence, SO I CAN trust the parts
of Scripture I CANNOT directly verify. GOD made every
particle of our being. His rule IS JUST.
We
must accept His offer of redemption and salvation in Jesus Christ while time
remains.
For God so Loved the World, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. John
3:16.
For he made HIM to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be
made the righteousness of God IN HIM. Second Corinthians 5:21.
Jesus said, "Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born
again, he cannot see the kingdom of God....I am the way, the truth, and the
life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 3:3, 14:6.
Additional
Thoughts
Historically, it
has been the Western, Christian world that has given rise to the greatest
scientific achievements. Why?.... God commanded Adam to "subdue" and
"have dominion over" the creation. It has been this creationist mindset,
which has proven to be the scientifically fertile one. But, evolutionists claim
creationism is just religion. But, this makes even less sense when one
considers that most of our branches of science were founded by creationists.
Many of the worlds most outstanding and productive scientists have been
creationists Biblically and scientifically. Examples: Isaac Newton, Johann
Kepler, Blaise Pascal, Galileo, Michael Faraday Samuel Morse, George Washington
Carver, Gregor Mendel, and Louis Pasteur.
The US
Declaration of Independence
We
hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are CREATED equal, that they
are endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these
are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. Rights are unalienable,
only, because they are endowed by the Creator. Creation is the basis of the
USA!
Can
we really get TRUTH from Science?
Science is based on
observation and experimentation. But, scientists are always discovering
something new they didn't know before, which forces them to overhaul their
theories. Scientists never know how much they don't know. They
never have all the facts. You can only get the truth if you possess all
the facts.
Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou
hast created all things. Book of Revelation.
