  • Apologetic Resources
    APOLOGETIC RESOURCES A Young Earth ministry perspective, namely contrasting Scripture to true science now and during the ages. By Dr. Jim Pagels [email protected] 9/2016 Editor Dr. John Fricke, Emeritus Professor of Biology, Concordia University, Ann Arbor, Michigan. Copyright This book is offered as an educational resource on a no cost basis. Contents are not to be reproduced for the purpose of sale. Note that all Scriptural passages are taken from the English Standard Version. 1 I HAVE NO GREATER JOY THAN TO HEAR THAT MY CHILDREN WALK IN THE TRUTH III JOHN 1:4 Forward - Although there is much young Earth information available from commercial sources and on the internet, it was the impression of this writer that no resource that deals with basic topical issues correlating the young Earth philosophy and science exists for professional church workers. To this end, Apologetic Resources is being offered. Intended Audience – The intended audience of this reference material is primarily use by professional church workers, i.e., teachers, pastors, youth workers, etc., namely those who choose to uphold the literal interpretation of Genesis and the inerrancy of Holy Scripture. The focus in this regard is Young Earth Creationism and the catastrophic nature of the global Genesis Flood keeping in mind that Genesis 1-11 is foundational to most of the significant doctrines of Holy Scripture. Of course, laymen may well also find this reference a valuable resource. There is obviously a realistic interplay between Scripture, apologetics and true science. The goal of this document is to provide clarity to this interaction.

  • Burdick, Clifford Leslie (1894–1992)
    Burdick, Clifford Leslie (1894–1992) JAMES L. HAYWARD James L. Hayward, Ph.D. (Washington State University), is a professor emeritus of biology at Andrews University where he taught for 30 years. He is widely published in literature dealing with ornithology, behavioral ecology, and paleontology, and has contributed numerous articles to Adventist publications. His book, The Creation-Evolution Controversy: An Annotated Bibliography (Scarecrow Press, 1998), won a Choice award from the American Library Association. He also edited Creation Reconsidered (Association of Adventist Forums, 2000). Clifford Leslie Burdick, a Seventh-day Adventist consulting geologist, was an outspoken defender of young earth creationism and involved in the search for Noah’s Ark. Many of his claims were sensationalist and later discredited. Early Life and Education Born in 1894, Burdick was a graduate of the Seventh Day Baptist Milton College of Wisconsin. After accepting the Seventh-day Adventist message, Burdick enrolled at Emmanuel Missionary College (EMC, now Andrews University) in hopes of becoming a missionary. There he met the prominent creationist George McCready Price who inspired Burdick’s Clifford Leslie Burdick. interest in “Flood geology.”1 From Youth's Instructor, July 11, 1967 In 1922 Burdick submitted a thesis to EMC entitled “The Sabbath: Its Development in America,” which he later claimed earned him a Master of Arts degree in theology. Records show, however, that he never received a degree at EMC. He also claimed to have received a master’s degree in geology from the University of Wisconsin. Although he did complete several courses in geology there, he failed his oral exams and thus was denied a degree.2 During the 1950s Burdick took courses in geology and paleontology at the University of Arizona with plans to earn a PhD.

  • Creation Evidence Museum
    Creation Evidence Museum Lacks Evidence! By Greg Neyman © Answers In Creation www.answersincreation.org/cem.htm The Creation Evidence Museum in Glen Rose, Texas, claims to have evidences of a young earth on display. Careful examination of the main articles they claim show a young earth reveal that they are deceptions, and in many cases, not even clever ones. (To view their page of Museum Displays, visit CEM Online (creationevidence.org), and click on Museum Displays on the left column.) The rebuttals for this museum are a compilation of articles from various websites. It is important to note that Carl Baugh, the person behind the museum, is at odds with other creation scientists. To view Answers In Genesis' original article on Carl Baugh, visit http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/paluxy/whatbau.html . The London Artifact An iron and wooden hammer supposedly encased in limestone. CEM claims that this hammer could not be millions of years old (dated to the same age as the limestone) so the hammer/rock must be only thousands of years old. Glen Kuban, who has studied the claims of young earth artifacts from Texas for the last fifteen years, provides the real story behind this hammer (http://paleo.cc/paluxy/hammer.htm ). The Burdick Print This footprint from what they claim is Cretaceous limestone, is said to show that man and dinosaurs walked together only a few thousand years ago. Glen Kuban provides a thorough rebuttal to this claim ( http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/paluxy/wilker5.html ). He shows the track contains anatomic errors, and demonstrates that abruptly truncated subsurface algal structures indicate this print was carved into the rock.

  • Faith Displayed As Science: the Role of the "Creation Museum"
    FAITH DISPLAYED AS SCIENCE: THE ROLE OF THE “CREATION MUSEUM” IN THE MODERN AMERICAN CREATIONIST MOVEMENT A thesis presented by Julie Anne Duncan to The Department of the History of Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for an honors degree in History and Science Harvard University Cambridge, Massachusetts March, 2009 ABSTRACT NAME: Julie Anne Duncan TITLE: Faith Displayed as Science: The Role of the “Creation Museum” in the Modern American Creationist Movement ABSTRACT: Since the 1960s, the U.S. has seen a remarkable resurgence of the belief in the literal truth of the Bible, especially in a “young” (less than 10,000 years old) Earth. Somewhat paradoxically, this new biblical literalism has been accompanied by an increased emphasis on scientific legitimacy among creationists. The most recent tool in young-Earth creationists’ quest for scientific legitimacy is the “creation museum.” This thesis analyzes and compares the purposes and methods of four creation museums; discusses their repercussions for science as a discipline; and explains their significance for the larger creationist movement. KEYWORDS: creationism, young Earth, evolution, museums, Creation Evidence Museum, Dinosaur Adventure Land, Institute for Creation Research, Answers in Genesis ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing this thesis would not have been the wonderful and rewarding experience it was without the generous support of the following people. It is difficult to overstate my gratitude to my thesis adviser, Professor Janet Browne. It was she who first suggested, back when I was just a sophomore in her Darwinian Revolution seminar, that my longtime interest in creationism might very well make for an interesting thesis. She helped me apply for the research grant that allowed me to visit four creation museums last summer and then graciously agreed to advise my thesis.

  • Paluxy River Tracks
    Hi my name is Nathan Smith and I would like to tell you about the human and dinosaur footprints that are located in the Paluxy river basin near Glen Rose TX. I believe that the footprints and the geology of the area are wholly consistent with the Bible and Noah’s flood. I would also like to tell you about a dinosaur dig that I went on, In June of 2016, to dig up and clean dinosaur footprints 1 History: of the Bible and of Glen Rose etc 2 http://creationanswers.net/reviews/BAUGH1.HTM this site has brief history of issue… hopefully it is good…. Everywhere in Glen Rose TX there are dinosaurs (grocery store, park benches, hotel signs). These dinosaurs are in front of the visitors center in Glen Rose Let’s go over the history from the Bible and the from the area of Glen Rose 3 The views are very different. The plain, straightforward teaching of the Bible is that the history of the earth spans some 6 thousand years or so. The major events in the biblical view of history include: •The creation by God over six 24-hour days God made man in his own image (earth is perfect) Dinos and man created on day six of creation •The fall of Adam and Eve (this is what brought death and struggle into the world) •The global flood of Noah’s time (judgment based on man’s sin) •The dispersion of people groups at the Tower of Babel (explains the races) •The life of Jesus on the earth and His death and resurrection •The end times as described in the book of Revelation These events represent the unfolding of God’s plan and purposes for humankind.

Barone The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2015 Under the Supervision of Professor Benjamin Campbell Since the mid-twentieth century there has been increasing concern among evangelical Christians over the depiction of human origins in American education. For young-Earth creationists, it has been a priority to replace scientific information which contradicts the six-day origin story reported in Genesis 1 with evidence they claim scientifically reinforces their narrative.
