Bible Note: Dear Wild Olive Shoot: The last sentence of your post reads, "The facts of the Bible have remained the same for thousands of years." ..... Amen and Amen! "The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever" (Isaiah 40:8). ..... Darwin's flesh is now food for worms, and his godless theories are fading like the last rose of summer, having never been corrobrated by an ounce of scientific fact. Bona fide scientists by the score have abandoned any credence in the groundless theory of evolution. But one of the saddest and most absurd realities of our time is that our children are having the theory of evolution crammed down their throats as scientific fact by teachers who are no more scientists than Mickey Mouse is a brain surgeon. ..... I have two grand-children, aged 10 and 13, in school, and I spent a considerable time with them during their June visit to our home in a concerted effort to expunge from their minds the poisonous lies of evolution that had been fed to them in the classroom. They were quite surprised -- shocked would be more like it -- to find out from their grand-father that evolution is not a scientific fact by any means, but a totally unproved theory of an avowed atheist named Charles Darwin who came from a dysfunctional family. We studied and discussed God's account of creation found in the opening chapters of Genesis, and I believe that the truth of God's word made a profound impact on these young, still malleable, minds of my two precious grandsons. Rest assured that we'll have another follow-up seminar when they visit our home at Thanksgiving! --Hank |
