A Case for Creation

Book Synopsis: Here is a reasoned argument supporting the view that evolution has no part to play in the origin or development of life. Arguing that the evidence is so flawed that belief in its doctrine requires an act of faith greater than those who hold to the notion of divine creation. To illustrate this, various schools of evolutionary thought from Darwin through to contemporary interpretations of his theory will be examined, touching upon the antagonism each school holds for the others' view. Acceptance of so-called evolutionary proofs will be investigated, the evolutionary lineage of the horse, and the ancestral whale progression from land-based mammals to sea dwellers. We will show that when these proofs were first formulated, there was an urgent need for sequential evidence to validate the new theory; consequently, interpretive assumptions were made that were anything but scientific or indeed logical. They were accepted as fact, and to this day are taught as such without any serious investigation as to the validity of this supposed evolutionary lineage. This book tries to answer how it can be that a theory, while impossible to prove, has nevertheless ingrained itself in scientific opinion. It will be shown there was and still is a political agenda to the question. That evolution offers an escape from the Judeo/Christian ethic and that its staunchest advocates, from Huxley through to Dawkins, have embraced the idea seeking to validate their own agnostic/atheist conviction. The theory has gained acceptance with the perception of scientific infallibility coupled with the decline of belief (at least in the west) in God. We will also examine the various schools of creation from 'young earthers' through to intelligent design and gap theory advocates. We will also prove God exists - shouldn't be too difficult, should it? Read more
