The Monthly Newsletter of Answers In Creation December 2005 (Volume 1, Number 12)

New Article <Link deleted>   Featured Old-Earth Book Who was Adam? Dr. Hugh Ross Dr. Fazale Rana Was Adam an accident of nature, or a creature designed with significance and purpose? Did humans descend from an ape-like ancestor through lucky happenstance, or were the first man and woman deliberately created, made in God's image? Evolutionary theory dominates academic thought and public discourse as the only valid explanation for humanity's origin. Many observations appear to validate Darwin's ideas. But do they? Long before Darwin, a man named David voiced a different view. And, both men can't be right. Recent discoveries, some with biblical overtones, are causing many scientists to abandon traditional evolutionary accounts in favor of a radically different explanation. In Who Was Adam? biochemist Fazale Rana and astronomer Hugh Ross discuss many of these advances and propose a new scientific model for human origins, a creation model. Can human evolution be declared a fact? Or does creation make more scientific sense? RTB's biblically consistent model can be tested to answer the questions, with astounding results.

News      During November, Old Earth Ministries had 9,096 visitors, viewing 22,416 pages.  This is the first time we have gone over the 9,000 mark.  For more statistics, see  About OEM.      During November we obtained two new domain names.  One is an alternate site, with the same content as Old Earth Ministries.  This site is www.oldearth.org (it was mentioned in last month's newsletter).       The other site is called the Old Earth Network, located at www.oldearth.net.  While the Old Earth Network is still under construction, feel free to check it out.  The main feature is the forum, giving old earth creationists an opportunity to voice opinions and carry on discussions with each other.         I've also been working at adding a new link bar, and changing the layout to a white background for articles.  For an example, see the featured article below, the Coconino Sandstone.  Any comments on the new layout are welcome.        In Christ,   Greg Neyman Old Earth Ministries Featured Article - The Coconino Sandstone      The Featured Article will highlight one article or section of the website each month. The Coconino Sandstone is a prominent rock layer in the Grand Canyon.  Considered to be of "desert" origin, it poses a threat to the young earth model, after all, how could you form a desert sandstone in the middle of Noah's Flood.  This article shows that the young earth explanation for the Coconino is totally inadequate and full of problems.   Click here to read this article. Featured Contributed Article - YEC Dating of a Mt. Saint Helens Dacite      In this section, we will feature articles from OEM associates, and articles which are linked to from an OEM webpage. What happens when young earth creationists try to disprove radiometric dating?  Naturally, they stretch the truth and commit mistakes.    Click here to read this article. Contributors Wanted!
