Crucial Creation Cornerstone Questions:

Why have 1,000's of PhD scientists rejected macroevolution?
  - They include
the inventor of the MRI & professors at major universities.
  - Yet, PBS, National Geographic, & Scientific American claim there are none.
  - If new evidence has convinced 1,000's, then shouldn't you find out why?
  - Take a look for yourself. (Here are a few lists: AiG, ICR, CMI, CRS)   

What kind of "god" is portrayed by theistic evolution?
   - Remember, survival of the fittest depends upon pain, fear, suffering, & death.
   - In contrast, the God of the Bible is the Good Shepherd.
   - Theistic evolution is a belief that blasphemes God by making Him a monster.

Why is the character of our Creator the cornerstone of counseling?
   -
The foundation for consistent peace, joy, & unselfish love must be trust in God.
   - Believing that God desired & designed disease & death does not lead to trust.
   - Good News: Willful sin, Satan, & selfishness are the cause, not God.

Dr. A.E. Wilder-Smith (Christian / Young Earth Creationist) is one of very few scientists who earned three doctorates in physical sciences from prestigious universities - Oxford, then Geneva, and finally Zurich.  The website memorializing his work and life, http://www.wildersmith.org/, contains a wealth of material, including videos, audios, articles, and books, for the scientific scholar as well as the layman.

 

NCZoo "Living Labs" - (30 Aquariums/Terrariums) (Over 40 Live Animals)
    Remember, "Biology" means the study of "Life", not dead specimens!
    This especially means the study of "nephesh" inter-relationships.

Digital Microscopy QX3:
    - Where to get a QX3 and why you'll love it
    - What you can do with it and how to use it
    - Photos and video clips of our class digital labs

Study Motive:  God's kind of love, which sacrifices the desires of self for the needs of others,
                           instead of sacrificing the needs of others for the desires of self.
Don't believe anything, even what I say, unless the evidence makes it worthy of your trust.
"Faith is the . . . evidence of things not seen." (Heb 11:1)

 


Click on the owl below for the textbook site
(Remember, this is a secular and evolutionary text.)


You can download glossaries and take practice tests online at the above textbook site.

Disclaimer:  This textbook, like all human works, is not perfect.  It contains some material that is out of date and some that has been proven wrong.  Also, since it is not a “Christian” text it also contains worldview statements, especially regarding philosophy of life and historical science that are inconsistent with a biblical worldview.   Most people do not realize that “science” is not as objective as some scientists proclaim it to be.  Some, even some non-Christian scientists, admit the fact that “scientific” claims are often just traditional beliefs held to by the current majority. 

Assumptions can be dangerous, especially in science.  They usually start as the most plausible or comfortable interpretation of the available facts.  But when their truth cannot be immediately tested and their flaws are not obvious, assumptions often graduate to articles of faith, and new observations are forced to fit them.  Eventually, if the volume of troublesome information becomes unsustainable, the orthodoxy must collapse.” [Emphasis added in bold italics]

(John Mattick, PhD, professor of molecular biology at the University of Queensland and director of the Institute for Molecular Bioscience.  “The Hidden Genetic Program of Complex Organisms”, Scientific American, October 2004, p. 61.)

Since the text is a secular, non-Christian work that is saturated with non-theistic, and insufficiently substantiated evolutionary hypotheses, it provides the opportunity to apply analytical, critical, bio-logical thinking skills as we compare how scientific evidences best fit a model of theistic/biblical creation.  Also, textbook publishers compete with one another to sell books to state schools, so the books are getting bigger, heavier, and overloaded with unnecessarily distracting boxes, sidebars, charts, etc.  Therefore, I have outlined and summarized the textbooks into Word (.doc) and PowerPoint (.ppt) documents and put them online for more efficient study, along with updated, supplementary materials.

Creation Quote of Interest:
Dr Emmett Williams, Creation Research Society Quarterly, 29(2):84, September 1992.

‘Anyone who questions man’s reasoning, particularly on the origin of the physical world, faces an arrogance almost beyond comprehension. Many scientists realize the weak underpinnings of scientific models but the spokesmen of naturalism and their media advocates will not abide anything that questions either the supremacy of man, his reasoning power or his conclusions. I have seen media interviewers, who gladly try to tear Christian and conservative guests to pieces, grovel before a scientist who is [one of the] illuminati of evolutionary thought. No one would dare to try to question a living example of the superiority of man’s reasoning power. They are in the presence of a high priest of the one and only knowledge — let all the earth keep silent before him!’


Text and Class Notes:
Remember, my PowerPoints and some WORD Documents are very large and take a lot of space. 
I cannot afford to pay for the host storage space to keep all of them online at the same time. 
So, I might only be able to maintain the most recent and immediately needed files.
Also, remember that they take a long time to download, depending on your connection speed, so be patient.

LAB: Word Doc Lab Report - Elodea (Anacharis) Cells [Osmosis, Homeostasis, Photosynthesis]
      (Printed copies of this Word Doc will also be handed out in class.)   

Spiritual Analogy & Application:  Elodea’s common name is “Anacharis” meaning “increased GRACE / GIFT (charis)” in Greek.  Just as our Creator God gave plants to continually provide life-giving air (oxygen) to His nephesh (thinking / feeling) creatures, God has also given us the Holy Spirit as the source of new, eternal life through the second birth spiritually when a person is “born-again”.  By the way, the New Testament Greek word for spirit is pneuma, which means air or wind.  Therefore, without the new, spiritual, second birth, no person can have eternal life.  Jesus said the choice is yours (John 3).  The Good News (Gospel) is that Jesus did all the work necessary for us, through His sinless life, sacrificial death, and resurrection.  None of our tainted “good” works are of any value to earn or buy eternal life.

Unit 7 - Advanced Bio-Logic Review

Romans 12: 1 I beg you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable [logikos / logical] service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.  3 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. 4 For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another."

ORIGINS DEBATES & PRESENTATIONS -
Which Model Best Fits the Evidence?
(Biblical Creation or One of the many Non-Biblical Models?)
Pray for the possibility for debates / dialogues here on the NCS campus or in a local church:
     One potential is to have Mr. Galloway debate an evolutionary teacher or professor.
     Another possibility is to have another creationist debate an evolutionist.

Also, it would be wonderful to bring down a team from Answers In Genesis.
     Their scientists / speakers are excellent, using PowerPoint / video visual aids.
     The evidences they present are glorifying to the Lord and evangelistically effective.

 My friend, Dr. Terry Mortenson, has written an excellent refutation to this recent National Geographic effort to both censor and distort the evidence available to its readers.  I highly recommend Terry's article.  Click the picture or go to the www.answersingenesis.org site to read it and print it out to pass on to others.

A few sample quotations, illustrating the full spectrum of evidence too often censored from the average biology student:

Dr Werner Gitt, In the Beginning Was Information, CLV, Bielefeld, Germany, p. 107, 1997.
"…there is no known law of nature, no known process and no known sequence of events which can cause information to originate by itself in matter." 

Dr Lee Spetner (Professor of Biophysics at Johns Hopkins University) and author of, Not By Chance, The Judaica Press, Inc., Brooklyn, New York, p.138, 1997.
"
All point mutations that have been studied on the molecular level turn out to reduce the genetic information and not to increase it."

 p.159-160  "Not even one mutation has been observed that adds a little information to the genome. That surely shows that there are not the millions upon millions of potential mutations the theory demands. There may well not be any. The failure to observe even one mutation that adds information is more than just a failure to find support for the theory. It is evidence against the theory. We have here a serious challenge to neo-Darwinian theory."

Francisco J. Ayala, The Mechanisms of Evolution, Scientific American, p. 65, Sept. 1978.
"
Insect resistance to a pesticide was first reported in 1947 for the Housefly (Musca domestica) with respect to DDT.  Since then resistance to one or more pesticides has been reported in at least 225 species of insects and other arthropods. The genetic variants required for resistance to the most diverse kinds of pesticides were apparently [already] present in every one of the populations exposed to these man-made compounds."  [Emphasis added]

(Hundreds of PhD scientists & their writings, DVD's, etc. support biblical creation as consistent with the scientific evidence.)
