Creation science is rather new. When I attended school the only book
that made waves was THE GENESIS FLOOD, by John C. Whitcomb, Jr., 1961.
Evolution had, by that time, been weaving a scholastic trail since the
1930's. The 1964 decision to block public displays of religion WAS
the icing on the cake that made fundamental theologists aware that
science was now entirely in the hands of evolutionists, and that ALL
puplic school children would have little if any exposure to Biblical
influence (unless the parent made the effort).
To understand the problem let us look at a simple problem. The
height of the Alps. An evolutionistic science teacher would say that
there is not enough water to have covered them by a FLOOD. What is
lacking, is proof that the ALPS were that high prior to the FLOOD.
This the evolutionist will not bother to discuss.
This will sound silly but makes a valid point. A dish is created 100
years ago. The dish is then dropped and breaks into hundreds of
pieces. Now let's say all the pieces are sweeped into a pile----
how old is the pile? If we examine the pieces, we might prove that
the glaze was of a type used 100 years ago; however, that doesn't
tell me how long that pile has been sitting on the floor.
If GOD created an "established" world in 6 days, what would it look
like? The indications are that Adam looked a 30 year old man, at
least he was not created a baby. We do know that Jesus started his
ministry at age 30 and he is comparied to Adam.
While Science can only measure what it sees, religion has always
depended on revelation. Presently, some scientists are trying
to exclude the possibility of revelation and replacing it with opinion and humanistic reasoning. It will take years of research and
scientific study to establish a Creationistic view that can rebuff
the damage caused by those bent on totally a materialistic view
of why we exist scientifically. I am not a scientist: however, I am
aware that ALL the answers to questions are not only for them to
answer. This is another reason why I am a Christian. it answers
the question WHY?
