“Indeed, evolution answered nothing. Neither did its mother, the big bang. They seemed little more than a comic book fairytale. I saw them as absurd, baseless, and fantastical hypotheses mired down by one conjecture upon another, while conveniently overlooking the most important questions. Even as a tween I realized this feeble attempt to account for the universe had four glaring gaps: the beginning, the end, the origin of life, and especially the existence of intellectual and moral beings.”  ~Desmond P. Allen, 2008, http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/arj/v1/n1/unification-theory

“One of the reasons I started taking this anti-evolutionary view, or let’s call it a non-evolutionary view, was last year I had a sudden realization for over twenty years I had thought I was working on evolution in some way.  One morning I woke up and something had happened in the night, and it struck me that I had been working on this stuff for twenty years and there was not one thing I knew about it. That’s quite a shock to learn that one can be so misled so long. Either there was something wrong with me or there was something wrong with evolutionary theory.  Naturally, I know there is nothing wrong with me, so for the last few weeks I’ve tried putting a simple question to various people and groups of people.

Question is: Can you tell me anything you know about evolution, any one thing, any one thing that is true? I tried that question on the geology staff at the Field Museum of Natural History and the only answer I got was silence. I tried it on the members of the Evolutionary Morphology Seminar in the University of Chicago, a very prestigious body of evolutionists, and all I got there was silence for a long time and eventually one person said, “I do know one thing — it ought not to be taught in high school.”

“Underlying this whole business, there’s a confusion of thought that it’s either design or science, it’s either God or science. God is …the personal Creator, He is the agent who causes the universe to exist.  But science explains mechanisms, and the existence of mechanisms certainly doesn’t provide an argument for the absence of an agent who designed those mechanisms. So the more science goes on, far from dispelling an illusion of design, it increases the evidence for design.  It’s God and science, not God or science.”  Prof. John Lennox, Web Interview, http://www.bigquestions.com/bonus-interviews

God’s Word is sufficient in all things for life and godliness. We have no need to lean upon the arrogant teachings of sinful man, nor should we close our eyes to the dangers of allowing men’s teachings to be planted in the fields where God’s sheep graze. 

There is a desire to see unity within the body, but unfortunately this unity is too often fostered at the expense of the sharpened sword of God’s Holy Word! 

For many professing Christians, doctrines such as evolution are considered secondary issues.  Ironically and sadly, many who are ardent followers, teachers, and writers of evolution don’t agree.  To them, evolution and all of its philosophies, are their primary source of meaning, and necessary in undermining the sufficiency and trust in the Lord Jesus and His Word. 

Consider the following quotes:

  
“Christianity has fought, still fights, and will fight science to the desperate end over evolution, because evolution destroys utterly and finally the very reason Jesus’ earthly life was supposedly made necessary. Destroy Adam and Eve and the original sin, and in the rubble you will find the sorry remains of the son of god. Take away the meaning of his death. If Jesus was not the redeemer that died for our sins, and this is what evolution means, then Christianity is nothing.”   G. Richard Bozarth, “The Meaning of Evolution”, American Atheist, 20 Sept. 1979, p. 30

“Christianity is – must be! totally committed to the special creation as described in Genesis, and Christianity must fight with its full might, fair or foul against the theory of evolution.”   G. Richard Bozarth, “The Meaning of Evolution”, American Atheist, 20 Sept. 1979, p. 19
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

The quote below is from secular humanist, J. Dunphy. After reading it over 10 years ago, this quote more than any other confirmed to me the necessity of teaching the truth of God and His Word to this generation.  Each generation is faced with certain philosophies and teachings that are designed to attack the very essence of our trust in God’s Word. In my opinion, humanism with its evolutionary teachings represents one of the top purveyors of error in the times we live. Evolution is much more Continue reading
