creationism

for context: From Science and Faith - Young-Earth Creationism "The Bible clearly teaches the young-earth creationist view of Genesis 1–11. That was the almost universal belief of the church for 1800 years. Progressive Creationism and Theistic Evolutionism in all their various forms (day-age...

In case anyone missed it, a lecture by John Walton on Adam and Eve. The video covers topics such as "who did Cain marry?" And "was Eve made of Adam's rib bone?".

It seems that creationists are shaky on even the simplest and most well known points of science. Recently, I ran across a creationist site that thought they'd found a way to dethrone the speed of light as a constant of the universe. They cite phys.org but don’t link to any particular article, so...

There is a strong movement to teach creation science in the schools. The name “creation science” is attached to a number of organizations and websites. Does creation science have a sensible basis? Can an idea that came out of religion be turned into a science? Not really. You don’t have to...

We are a community for creationist to discuss and conversate among each other all things relating to creation, its relevant science, and empirical evidences of God. Where we differ from most apologetic / philosophy servers is we have a strong focus on the evidential arguments and aspects, which...

Creationists have often told me that all sedimentary rock was formed during the Flood. That is one reason they see no reason for rock formation taking place slowly over millions of years. Sedimentary rock certainly isn’t rare, it accounts for 70% of the Earth’s crust. If forty days and nights...

Here is a video explaining the origins of Young Earth Creationists. It is also being discussed at Biologos and Peaceful Science. Perhaps the biggest surprise is that modern day YEC can be traced back to not the early church fathers but to 19th century Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) founder Ellen...

WLC embraces both sacred myth and some current scientific understandings to locate the historical Adam. Given the recent archaeological findings, Adam and Eve may plausibly be identified as belonging to the last common ancestor of Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, usually denominated Homo...

We know that there are angels and animals as well as humans. But do you believe and can you demonstrate that God created aliens in his enormous act of creation. If the universe is magnificent desolation except for earth, why all that wasted space and effort? Are we meant to fill it ourselves?

In Genesis 3, a serpent, or snake, talks with Eve. In Genesis 3:14-15, God says that the serpent will lose its legs. God doesn’t say that the serpent will no longer be able to talk or no longer have the intelligence to talk. We know there are no talking snakes today. Snakes do not have the vocal...

I'll be posting lines of evidence against a young earth. The first I don't think anyone has noticed before, the long lived Greenland Shark. It reaches maturity at a staggering 150 years of age and has a gestation period of at least 8 years. If more than 38 generations existed, the Earth could...

I just came across this today. I'm so curious! "Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture stating that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers for a sincere by...

All Christians are Creationists in the sense that they believe that God created the universe. "We believe in One God, Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen" as the Nicene Creed declares. There is a considerable amount of mystery in the biblical accounts as...

Dear friends, I wanted to share with you a video which has helped me to remember a common sense response to Darwinian Evolution, in the form of a mnemonic: EVOLUTION-X It has certainly been very useful for me, especially when suddenly thrown into a discussion of Creationism v Evolution and I...

Hello! I am new to ChristianForums.com so please accept my apologies if this has been planted in the wrong place (perhaps a moderator can correctly place it for me)...but I wanted to share with you a video which has helped me to remember common sense objections to Darwinian Evolution, in the...

Creationism Losing Ground in Education In 2019 the National Centre for Science Education (NCSE) commissioned a survey of US public high school biology teachers. The survey duplicated a similar survey conducted in 2007 and was designed to assess shifts in the teaching of evolution, in US...

According to new article by Ann Reid of the NCSE “...the proportion of US secondary-school biology teachers who present creationism as a scientifically valid alternative to evolution fell from 32% in 2007 to 18% in 2019” (E. Plutzer et al. Evo. Edu. Outreach 13, 14; 2020). I am curious what...

The history of viruses is actually a proof of the biblical account taken literally as there has been a gradual development of bad viruses from a situation where there were far less of them. In fact the really deadly viruses have not always been with us but are mutations on earlier less dangerous...

Hi all! A decade ago I was a hard core Young Earth Creationist (YEC). I taught it with zeal at youth group services, evangelism classes, and apologetics seminars. I thought that the main two views of Genesis 1 were the Biblical view (literal), and the non-Biblical view (non-literal)...
