    I haven't read his book, only comments on his website. Hence the "seems".

    Searching for Truth with a Broken Flashlight

    I thought I made it clear. I am a theistic evolutionist. I personally could care less about a literal interpretation of Genesis (something Hawley seems to embrace). Science is the most effective and objective tool human beings have in discovering the truth. I know this because I do it. I know...

    Thanks for the compliment, but no. Ripperology is actually how I found out about his geology side. He just wrote a critical Jack the Ripper article on a suspect named Francis Tumblety and the end of the article gives details about him. He is also a fellow paleontologist and Christian. I have put...

    Searching for Truth with a Broken Flashlight

    I can understand why you agree with AV. You do not understand biological evolution. Evolution does not state human beings came from apes (unless you consider humans as apes which is a difficult point to argue against biologically). Evolution is a chance in the frequency of alleles within a...

    My Evolution Challenge

    So, I have a question about your assumption that man, and I'm sure you are talking about Adam, started out perfect. Where does it say, "Adam was perfect"? My guess is you will be quoting Genesis 1:31 - "Very Good", but remember you are interpreting "very good" as perfect. There is actually...

    My Evolution Challenge

    By the way, I don't think you realize that Darwin did not come up with biological evolution. The first person in recorded history to discuss the idea of evolution was a man named Anaximander of Miletus 2,600 years ago. What made Darwin famous was he discovered one of the primary mechanisms...

    My Evolution Challenge

    Besides your rhetoric, could you please list the evidence that biological evolution has been denied by the scientific community? List the peer reviewed literature claiming this please. I agree with this, but it has nothing to do with young earth creationism or anti-evolution denial. Since...
