Jul 24, 2020 “Better Living Through Chemistry!” We will discover that the information for prescribing life activities and the life force itself is not part of the atoms, molecules and chemical principles even though life rides on or runs on the chemistry of the cells. Evolution assumes that life is a product of the physical atoms and molecule, yet the un-directed process of chemical evolution violates known and verified chemical laws, principles and processes. We will show that the “goo-to-you-by-the-zoo” model is unscientific, especially in proverbial “primordial pond” or oceans. Without a sound foundation of the origin of life, the

Because of grievous deficiencies in the standard neo-Darwinian Model of evolution, which is largely selection driven, scientists proposed an alternative postulate called the ‘Neutral Model’ in the late 1960s. The Neutral Model is also mutation driven, but selection is deemed to be an insignificant force of change. Instead, random genetic drift is alleged to be the main driver. Since its inception, the Neutral Model has come to be incorporated in many theoretical evolutionary scenarios at some level. However, due to numerous discoveries in genomics and genome function, the Neutral Model has also become deficient, prompting a new move in science

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.

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

Join Origins host Donn Chapman as he welcomes geneticist and scientist, Dr. Robert Carter for, “Noah’s Flood Genetics.” What evidence do we have for Adam and Eve, Noah’s Flood and the Tower of Babel event in the human genome? The historical claims about human history in the Bible are quite clear. Yet, most evolutionists reject these claims based on a superficial study of available genetic data. Our guest will reveal not only can the claims can be tested but they can be confirmed.
Join Origins host Donn Chapman as he welcomes speaker and author, Paul Taylor for, The Language of Evolution. Many people enjoy natural history museums, such as that in London or the Smithsonian in Washington. Although originally built for the Glory of God, such institutions today see their mission to uphold and promote Darwinian evolution. Our guest on this edition of Origins shows us that the evidence for evolution is not actually in the cases of the exhibits, it exists only in the use of language.
(Credit: NASA, H. Richey) It was heralded as decisive proof of the theory of evolution. But Harvard biologist and Nobel Prize laureate Jack Szostak now has retracted a major paper that claimed to explain one of the most important questions about the origin of human life. In 2016, Szostak published a paper claiming he had found…
Seminar by Chris Ashcraft Apologetics Symposium Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA March 8th, 2017 Secular geologists have rejected Biblical history and assert that there has been no global flood as described in Genesis. But vast quantities of fossils and sedimentary rock provide a monumental testimony to this historical event and God’s recent judgment. Is the worldview of these geologists causing them to “deliberately ignore that the world was deluged with water and perished” (2 Peter 3:3-6)? This presentation provides the Biblical answer to the fossil record and an encouragement for Christians to trust in the Bible as authoritative on early

Seminar by Vince LaPoint Apologetics Symposium Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA April 5, 2017 The Bible says that in latter days, people will turn away from the truth and believe myths instead. Why would someone willingly exchange the truth in for a lie? Answer Evolution prepares us to respond to those who believe in evolution. We will consider some recent evolutionary myths and understand how a person’s worldview affects what information we believe and what we reject. We will review definitions of evolution and science and then we apply these definitions to examples that are commonly brought up as evidence

An evolution-propagandizing illustrated children’s book is drawing praise from the secular community and currently ranks as a best seller on Amazon.com. “Annabelle & Aiden: The Story Of Life” is a 26-page children’s book that was published last month. Advertised as an “inspirational storybook” that will help kids “gain a basic understanding of evolution,” the book walks readers through the history of life according to Charles Darwin. Featuring a “wise owl” who describes evolution to two young girls named Annabelle and Aiden, the book proselytizes evolution using rhyming text and whimsical illustrations.

Many people think that Charles Darwin first thought of the idea of natural selection. However, others prior to Darwin described the concept, although they sometimes used slightly different terminology. For instance, Carl Linnaeus, the creationist ‘father of taxonomy’ wrote of a ‘struggle for survival’ in nature. Similarly, James Hutton wrote about the concept of natural selection. Probably the most influential character was Edward Blyth, an English chemist and zoologist who wrote major articles on natural selection two decades before Darwin published the Origin of Species. Darwin differed in trying to use the concept of natural selection to promote the idea

Seminar by Dr. Heinz Lycklama Apologetics Symposium Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA February 19th, 2015 Description: It has become abundantly clear that evolutionary thinking is not based on scientific evidence. This lecture offers four major challenges to the “theory” of Evolution. 1) (Macro) Evolution has never been observed. It takes a giant leap in faith to get from (micro) evolution, which has been observed, to (macro) evolution.2) No credible transitional fossils have been identified in the 150 years since Darwin wrote “Origins of Species.” Evolution did not happen. 3) Life can/did not originate from non-life by random chance. Evolution can/will

How much time would evolution need in order to make a mouse the size of an elephant? Since this kind of evolution supposedly occurs too slowly for biologists to observe, one place to look for answers is in the fossil record. But in order to answer this particular research question, a team of evolutionary biologists made some large assumptions. The group published what amounts to a circularly-reasoned argument in a peer-reviewed journal.1 They estimated the maximum rate of evolution to achieve the most extreme change in mammal sizes. To do this, however, they had to first assume that small changes

‘Genesis was written so that simple people could understand it’. For people who hold this view what they usually mean is, ‘God really used evolution, but evolution is too hard to communicate to people who lived long ago, so Moses wrote about how God created in 6 days.’ However, today evolution is communicated to children through critically acclaimed children’s books. This begs the question: if God really did create over millions of years couldn’t Moses have written it that way? Related content • Should Genesis be taken literally?

Research in recent years by leading (evolutionist) geneticists has revealed catastrophically high mutation rates in humans. This would be a good thing if mutations really cause upward evolution. Instead the human race is plunging toward extinction. Based on data from genetics humans could not have been evolving for millions of years, we would already be extinct.

In some parts of Africa, it is actually an advantage to have mutated, oddly-shaped red blood cells. This condition, known as sickle cell anemia, is usually a disadvantage, but, ironically, it can actually help protect someone from malarial infection because a sickled red blood cell is less appetizing for the malaria parasite. Many people mistakenly view this sort of change as an example of evolution in action—because a mutation in DNA has made people better adapted to their environment. But if microbes really did turn into mankind—which is what evolution teaches—this would require the addition of new DNA information to
