Reasons to Believe's Theory of Creation (Dr. Hugh Ross & Dr. Fazale Rana books)

I had recently came across this page while surfing and it says:"At Reasons To Believe, our team of scientists has developed a theory for creation that embraces the latest scientific advances. It is fully testable, falsifiable, and successfully predicts the current discoveries in origin of life research."

​

Dr. Ross and Dr. Rana present their testable model for creation in The Creator and the Cosmos and their two new books, Origins of Life: Biblical and Evolutionary Models Face Off and Who Was Adam? A Creation Model Approach to the Origin of Man. For the first time in over 80 years, this model catapults the evolution/creation controversy to an all new level-from science vs. religion to science vs. science.

​

The late Dr. Richard Smalley, Nobel Prize winning chemist, had this to say about Origins of Life and Who Was Adam: "Evolution has just been dealt its death blow. After reading Origins of Life, with my background in chemistry and physics, it is clear evolution could not have occurred. The new book, Who Was Adam, is the silver bullet that puts the evolutionary model to death." PageThis was in dec 2005, and I was wondering if any of you read this book or know of any scientists that have addressed it. I basicaly want to know if these claims are true? Edited by AdminJar, : fix linkEdited by Adminnemooseus, : Changed topic title from "Reasons to believe" to "Reasons to Believe's Theory of Creation"Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Added the "(Dr. Hugh Ross & Dr. Fazale Rana books)" part to the topic title.

It would be best if you picked something out of it that you think might be best and expressed it in your own words.If you don't have the book but just want comments I guess we could put this in the book nook.Meanwhile try good ol' google and see what you find.Welcome, to EvC by the way. You are in a good place to discuss that from both points of view.

I'm just looking for comments. I did google it but I couldn't find much but a couple of amazon reviews mostly stating how great the book is. So I came here to get some imput.To me the claims are outrageous but honestly I have no grounds to say something like that because I haven't read it. From my previous experiences, all of the Creation/ID books I have read were a waist of time (granted they were useful for debates). I also wan't to know if their science has been peer reviewed, and what knowledgeable and/or well informed people have to say about it...

Maybe we can get some input.
