Replacing Darwin

On the surface, the Christian view of Genesis might seem hopelessly outdated and antiquated. The skeptic might ask, “Why are we still debating a question that Darwin settled over 150 years ago? On how many other scientific questions of the 19th century do intelligent people still withhold judgment? Why is the church dragging its feet on technology and scientific progress?” To the evolutionist, the church needs reformation—on the scientific side—toward a “modern,” enlightened view. Is this true?

In my talks on “Replacing Darwin,” I explore these skeptical charges and test them against the clear light of modern biology. The results of this test are surprising. Did you know that Darwin took a massive scientific risk when he wrote his book? Do you know whether Darwin’s evidences would still survive in the modern scientific environment? Did you know that the young-earth view of the origin of species has matured and that it has exceeded the evolutionary model in its scientific strength? Three revolutionary developments in the last century and a half have turned the origins debate upside-down.
