Biblical Paleontology

1. If a fair maiden kisses a frog which instantly changes into a handsome prince we would call it a fairy tale. But if the frog takes 40 million years to turn into a prince we call it evolution.
2. Biblical paleontology
3. Alvis Delk Track found in July of 2000 by amateur archaeologist, Alvis Delk of Stephenville, Texas and is now on display at the Creation Evidence Museum, Glen Rose, TX. Mr. Delk found the loose slab against the bank of the Paluxy River, about one mile north of Dinosaur Valley State Park.
4. Earth's Anthropic Principle and Unique Environment for Life
5. Certain sedimentary features are very temporary; Bird tracks in sand; ripples formed by water flowing over sand; etc. The fact that such features are preserved in rock demonstrates the necessity of the rapid formation of sedimentary rock.
6. Jack Cuozzo. An orthodontist by trade, Jack Cuozzo is one of the world's leading experts on using cephalometric radiographs for x-raying skulls. One of the things confronting the field of orthodontics is the problem of earlier maturation over time.
7. Neanderthal is nothing more than 2nd and 3rd generation Post Flood Man - their presence in the fossil record and the evidence surrounding them seems to confirm that man is not evolving over time, but is actually degenerating over time! As time went on, the life span of mankind declined.
8. Uniformitarian Bias
9. The Catastrophic Formation of Grand Canyon
10. Alberta Dinosaurs

Books to Explore

1. Secrets of the Lost Races: New Discoveries of Advanced Technology in Ancient Civilizations By Rene Noorbergen
   An increasing number of historical and archaeological finds made around the world have been classified as "out-of-place artifacts" (ooparts). They have been called this because they appear unexpectedly among the ruins of the past with no evidence of a preceding period of development; their technological sophistication seems far beyond the capabilities of ancient peoples. Drawing on the literature and art of the Chaldeans, Sumerians, Babylonians and others, Rene Noorbergen's contention is that a superior race of man was responsible for these scientific marvels that bear testimony to a civilization with technology comparable to our own. Comments on the book by Keith Hunt

Evolution Issues

1. Discovery Institute discovers and promotes ideas in the common sense tradition of representative government, the free market and individual liberty.
2. Getting the Facts Straight: A Viewer's Guide to PBS's Evolution TV Series has been prepared to correct this one-sided presentation. Where Evolution distorts or ignores the facts, this Guide supplies them. Where Evolution ignores or misrepresents its critics, this Guide lets them speak for themselves. Although Evolution promotes the stereotype that all opponents of Darwin's theory are biblical literalists, this Guide was not written to defend biblical literalism but to defend honest science. It is simply based on the premise that the American people deserve to hear the truth--especially from the television network that they are supporting with their tax money.
3. Life Science Prize is offered by Joseph Mastropaolo to any evolutionists worldwide who can prove evolution scientifically. By their defaults they prove they have no scientific evidence in support of evolution
4. Biology vs. Evoluton
5. Creation Links
6. Scientists can never test evolutionary events in the past. Therefore evolution cannot be classed as a theory. Evolution misses the mark as a theory because all the supposed “tests” to confirm Darwinism do not necessarily and distinctively correspond to the idea. In other words, each has an alternate and equally viable explanation. A theory requires that the confirming experiments correspond to one specific hypothesis. Otherwise, the experiment cannot establish legitimacy. Evolution has no such legitimacy.

1. 15 Ways to Increase Your Church's Offerings by Keith Hamilton. An intentional prayer ministry will do more to increase your offerings than any other emphasis of the church. Churches that have a written vision statement are growing faster than churches without a vision statement. Church growth will impact offerings to your church. If members and guests believe your church will make a difference in your community and world, then they will give more to the ministry of your church.
2. 7 Reasons Churches Should Offer Electronic Giving Options There is a much more important issue that is transforming how people give and how churches collect offerings: various forms of electronic giving, such as websites, mobile devices, electronic funds transfer, and more.
3. Scrooge Lives! Why we're not putting more in the offering plate. And what we can do about it. Committed American Christians—those who say their faith is very important to them and those who attend church at least twice a month—earn more than $2.5 trillion dollars every year. On their own, these Christians could be admitted to the G7, the group of the world's seven largest economies. Smith and his coauthors estimate that if these Christians gave away 10 percent of their after-tax earnings, they would add another $46 billion to ministry around the world.
4. Book Review: 'Tithing' by Douglas LeBlanc"It's like people in this country are under the influence of drugs, and it is the drug of affluence," Sylvia said. She cited Jacques Ellul's observation, in Money and Power, that Jesus speaks of mammon as a personal being in Matthew 6. "Mammon is competing for your soul with God. The church in the United States, with all the blessings we've had, can lay those resources at God's feet or can be consumed by them and become like Theoden, become like the Ents, become drugged. It would take visionary moral leadership to wake people up."
5. Our Interesting Approaches to Tithing And what really works Jim Killam. We've either experienced or witnessed some interesting approaches to tithing. Some were slightly out of balance. Others were seriously twisted.
6. Should Pastors Know What People Give? A temptation toward favoritism, or a needed discipleship tool? by Matt Branaugh
