Creation Science Rebuttals

Review by Greg Neyman

    This question was published in Dr. John's Q&A by John Morris in June 1996.  This question is intimately tied to a previous question, so I urge you to read the response to Q&A #119 first.

     Morris claims that anti-family forces are getting stronger, and gaining more and more influence.  I agree.  The whole argument can be summed up by Morris statement "ICR's contention that the underlying cause is the acceptance of the evolutionary world view."

     However, tying this to evolution is not correct, as the ills of society, including the anti-family sentiments, existed in our world long before evolution became a theory.  With that said, however, I'm certain there are extremist evolutionists, as Morris gives a few examples of this in his answer.  I agree that we must oppose any of these people, especially when they provide information that is contrary to our God-given moral code. 

     What drives these people is unknown.  Although they may use evolution to champion their ideas, these ideas should not be transferred to all evolutionists.  There are many outstanding, moral evolutionists out there, and there are many theistic evolutionists.  They don't all fit the same mold, although Morris and young earth creationists in general try to stereotype them into this mold.

     If you are not a Christian, and you have been holding out on making a decision for Christ because the Church always preached a message that was contrary to what you saw in the scientific world, then rest assured that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, and you can believe in Christ and receive salvation, while still believing in an old earth.  Click here for more.
