It has been said that all of modern science builds upon evolution. Yet in the century before evolution was taught as a fact in American schools, the United States won more Noble prizes in science than the rest of the world combined. What great discovery has ever been made based on evolution? The world around us is far better explained as the creation of an intelligent designer followed by a recent global Flood.
Evolution has no adequate explanation for the following:
1. The problem of order – From the laws of thermodynamics to the information content of DNA, we see order everywhere. How did this arise from pure random chance?
2. The problem of light – What is light and energy? We give them names, but we really don't know what they are or why they exist.
3. The problem of life – It is absolutely statistically impossible that life could arise from random chemical reactions.
4. The problem of concious thought – Why are humans self-aware? Do other creatures ask, “Where did I come from? Why am I here? What is the purpose of life?”
5. The problem of reproduction – How and why would a single-sex organism turn into two different sexes?
6. The problem of decay – All of life is dying. The entire universe is running down. Therefore, it must have been more perfect in the past. Evolution ignores this problem, because it cannot explain it.
Biblical creation has an explanation for all of these mysteries, so which model of our origin is more scientifically correct?
