Schabacker believes
that creationism should be taught as well as evolution in the public
schools. This book lays out several scientific reasons to believe
creationism:
-
Creation of the earths geologic features can be explained by catastrophic processes better than gradual erosion.
-
Mutations which are often rare and detrimental to the organism are an insufficient way to explain evolution of complex species.
-
Stories from the Bible such as the great flood have corroboration in diverse historic accounts.
The book gives
additional details for believing that creationism is a good theory
for explaining the development of the world as we know it.
The book is easy to
read. Detailed analysis is not provided in this very short book, but
the author gives an extensive bibliography for readers interested in
following up on his ideas. The final sections of the book are devoted
to a plea to Christians to join together to support teaching
creationism in the public schools.
I received this book
from PR by the Book for this review.
