Multimedia Presentation by Dr. Thomas Kindell Cedar Park Christian School, Mountlake Terrace campus Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA March 8th, 2018 Biomimetics means biomimicry or copying design technology found in living organisms and using it to benefit our own needs. Scientists and engineers often praise the “genius” designs found in biology but often credit the alleged “wisdom” of evolution rather than give glory to our Creator – Jesus Christ. They have also found that many design concepts and inventions the were assumed to have been originated by man actually were thought of previously and were placed in biological organisms from

Multimedia Presentation by Chris W. Ashcraft M.S., M.Ed., MTMS Apologetics Symposium at Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA January 30th, 2019 Geologists say there has been no global flood as described in the Bible, despite the existence of a monumental body of evidence. Should Christians accept such assertions from scientists who adhere rigidly to philosophical naturalism? This presentation provides an introduction to geology and argues for an interpretation of the geological column that is naturally derived from the Biblical account. The worldviews that underlie secular interpretations of the Earth’s crust will be examined, and several key events will be highlighted to

Lecture by Dr. Andrew Snelling at Answers In Genisis, 06/19/18.
Join Origins host, Ray Heiple as he welcomes, Dr. Georgia Purdom for, “Mutations: Evolution’s Disappointment.” A major mechanism for Darwinian evolution is mutation. Random chance mutations are necessary to generate the raw material necessary for molecules-to-man evolution. These mutations must be beneficial and lead to the formation of new traits so that one kind of organism over time can evolve into a completely different kind of organism. However, mutations have never been observed to do this!
Join Origins host Ray Heiple as he welcomes, Dr. Kevin Anderson for, “Immortal Proteins?” For several years now scientists have been baffled upon finding soft tissue in dinosaur bones. Fragments of several types of proteins have been extracted from these dinosaur fossils. Protein degradation studies contradict the claims by evolutionists that certain conditions could preserve proteins in a buried fossil for millions of years. Instead, they reveal direct evidence that these fossils are only a few thousand years old.
Join Origins host, Ray Heiple as he welcomes, Dr. Georgia Purdom for, “Natural Selection is not evolution.” The engine that drives Darwinian evolution is natural selection. Natural selection “selects” organisms that are best suited for an environment and over time this purportedly has led to the evolution of one kind of organism changing into a completely different kind of organism. However, real-world genetic data shows what natural selection really does to populations.
Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Aug 25, 2017 After explaining the difference between micro- and macro- evolution and whether there’s any science for connecting them, the difference between Biblical “kinds” and species will be described. The basics of neo-Darwinian biology and it’s lack of verifiable evidence will be highlighted, causing thousands of scientists to abandon it. Information science will be highlighted as the biggest obstacle for the naturalistic scenarios, as the reality of millions of biological computers and computer programs in each cell (humans have 100 trillion) have been scientifically verified, with NO naturalistic explanation. Evolution can

Rocks hold some very interesting and wonderful secrets in God’s creation. During his presentation, Patrick will take us on a journey to explore these secrets. You will discover things that even the most experienced geologist has missed. Your faith will be strengthened and you will come away with some “rock solid” apologetics you can share with your friends. Patrick Nurre was trained in the secular view of geology. Over the past 40

Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Dec 8, 2017 The Law of Increasing Entropy is one of the foundational scientific laws of the universe. Its principle profoundly affects all existence, but particularly living systems. Entropy is a concept that concerns the spontaneous arrangement of things–that is, the arrangement of anything. Atoms, photons, playing cards, marbles, informational data bits… nucleotides… anything in large numbers. The law says that when an arrangement is spontaneously random, “mixedupness” (disorder) must always increase. Indeed, the fact of increasing entropy attests to the arrow of time for any phenomenon. Everything gets more randomized over

Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Jan 26, 2018 This is the title of CMI’s groundbreaking new book and documentary. Unlike anything CMI has ever done before, we interviewed 15 PhD scientists and asked them to list the fatal flaws of evolution, according to their own areas of expertise. Instead of our traditional approach of defending the Bible, this time we put the evolutionists on the defensive and make them answer the most difficult questions we could think of. In this introductory talk, Dr. Carter will summarize the major issues for the evolutionist three critical areas: natural selection,

Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Feb 23, 2018 Most people assume that the concept of evolution began with Charles Darwin. But Darwin merely popularized and provided a supposedly scientific explanation for evolution, an idea that has been around for a long time. A thread of evolutionary thought may be traced back to the earliest recorded civilization. In this presentation we trace evolutionism back to its early beginnings and show how it influenced Greek philosophy, which in turn affected Western culture from the Renaissance down to the present, and became deeply rooted in our culture today.

This has led to the abandonment of truth and morality as well. Dr. Fernandes shows how the rejection of God in the West has led to: Darwinian evolution, the rejection of absolute truth, moral relativism, post-modernism, the increase in immorality, political correctness, and the diminishing in the value of human life.

Millions of tourists to Grand Teton National Park each year are awed by its rugged mountain grandeur. Park signs and interpretive rangers also explain the geological history of the Teton Range and its companion valley, Jackson Hole. Visitors are told that the mountains have been incrementally rising and the valley dropping over several million years. The range is said to be still forming and will continue to do so well into the future. Bible

Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Jun 22, 2018 What have we learned about evolution since 1859 when Darwin published his theory on natural selection? At the time, little was known about the cell, and nothing was known of genetics. Are Darwin’s “numerous successive slight modifications” able to produce the irreducible complexities found in living systems? This presentation reviews the evidence for and against evolution from both living populations and fossils. We will also examine the processes of speciation, mutation, and selection. When the observations are interpreted correctly, we see clear support for the Biblical teachings that various

Apologetics Forum of Snohomish County Streamed live on Aug 24, 2018 This presentation begins by demonstrating that the Bible has answers. Next, four foundational questions are presented and examined which establish why evolution cannot be defended scientifically and must rely on faith. You will see how the layperson can successfully witness to an evolutionist. 1. Where did the matter come from to create the universe? 2. How did life originate? 3. Where are the transitional fossils? 4. Where did the dinosaurs come from? Mike is an international speaker and educator on Christian education and apologetics. Mike is also an
