When CMI speakers are out speaking they are often challenged by fellow Christians that have become convinced of evolution and claim that God used evolution to create. Richard and Calvin show what atheists and Bible sceptics say about this position (theistic evolution). Does adding millions of year of evolution to Genesis really help when sharing the Gospel? Watch and see!

Many claim that our eye’s retinas are wired backwards. Thus, they say, our eyes could not have been specially designed, because an intelligent creator would have wired them correctly. But this claim doesn’t make sense, after all, octopus retinas are wired in the supposedly correct way but their sight is poor compared to ours. Ophthalmologist Dr Peter Gurney has shown there are good reasons our eyes are wired the way they are. In particular, it allows our photoreceptors to be in close contact with two special tissues necessary for regenerating the photoreceptors and absorbing excess heat. But these tissues are

Did you hear about the whale that exploded? In 2001 a dead whale floating off the coast of South Australia did just that. Authorities became worried because people who’d ferried out to the whale in charter boats where standing on the whale’s carcass while white pointer sharks tore at the whale’s flesh. They called in the police bomb squad to sink it, but after detonating three explosives inside the whale’s belly it still refused to sink. Many people think that when a fish or whale dies it sinks to the bottom of the ocean where it gradually gets covered by

Question 6 in CMI’s ’15 Questions for Evolutionists’ flyer focuses on the fact that one of the greatest challenges for evolutionists is that living things show too much design!

Many people struggle with understanding what the word ‘day’ in Genesis 1 means. Since the word ‘day’ has a variety of meanings some believe that it could mean that God created over millions of years. Richard Fangrad and Calvin Smith, give many examples of how the word ‘day’ can be used in different ways. In most cases it is easy to understand the variety of meanings based on the context. When this simple principle is applied to understanding the meaning of the word ‘day’ in the context of Genesis 1 the meaning is also clear: it is a literal day!

Rather than accept what the Bible says about who wrote Genesis (Moses), nearly all liberal Bible colleges and seminaries (and sadly some which profess conservative evangelical doctrine) teach the ‘documentary hypothesis’ (also known as the ‘JEDP hypothesis’) instead.
