Did you know
-Charles Darwin never claimed life evolved by chance.
-Biological evolution does not say we came from monkeys or chimps.
-Charles Darwin never used the word "evolution" in Origin of Species nor did he use the phrase, survival of the fittest.
-Belief in an infallible and inerrant Bible actually allows for the acceptance of biological evolution and common ancestry.
-The Genesis phrase, And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kind, perfectly matches macroevolution. In other words, macroevolution is actually evolution "within" kinds.
-The anti-evolution creationist explanation of microevolution is genetically impossible.
-Gravity is not a fact and equally surprising is that it never will be. It, along with evolution, is an explanation based upon facts and verified through testing, i.e., a theory.
-God’s commandment to Noah, Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish (to refill) the earth (Gen 9:1) was actually given first to Adam (Gen 1:28), and this is in perfect agreement with anthropology.
-Scripture reveals the exact height of Noah’s flood, Fifteen cubits (only 22 feet) upward did the waters prevail (Gen 7:20), which is in exact accordance with Orthodox Jewish interpretation and archaeology.
-18th century creationists rejected the possibility of the world's sedimentary rocks being remnant global flood sediments. It is actually biblically impossible.
-Creation science’s dirty little secret: The one and only proof of a global flood, all layered sedimentary rocks, finds its origins from the dream of a teenager who claimed it was a vision from God.
Some of these claims I have not heard before (actually most). How about you? and be honest. This list was created by a Michael Hawley on his evolution/creation website http://www.searchingfortruthwithabrokenflashlight.com and is the author of a new book that has just come out. He claims that a literal interpretation of the Bible based upon biblical inerrancy and infallibility actually conforms to all discoveries made in science, especially biological evolution. I am especially intrigued by creation science’s dirty little secret. Has anyone ever heard of this?
Best,
