Bible Answer: Welcome, Strongfellow, and welcome to the family. The Institute for Creation Research -- at www.icr.org -- the organization suggested in Hank's previous posting, is an excellent reference for information on Creation Research. They come from a decidedly "young earth" creation standpoint and are very solid. Another "young-earth" group with lots of dinosaur information is Dr. Kent Hovind's Creation Science Evangelism -- www.drdino.com. This group probably has the most extensive presentation specifically related to dinosaurs. Finally, Dr. Hugh Ross and the researchers at "Reasons to Believe" -- www.reasons.org -- have some excellent input from an "old-earth" creationist perspective. The old earth and young earth creationists sometimes disagree strongly on interpretation of the possible meaning(s) of the Hebrew work "yowme" used for "day" in Genesis 1 (for each of the 6 creation days separately) and in Genesis 2:4 (referring to all 6 days as a whole). However, both groups fully affirm the accuracy of the Scriptural account and the creation (rather than evolution) of plants, animals, and mankind. There is an in-house debate among them as brothers and sisters in Christ, and together they can refer you to many excellent resources that help to investigate the wonder and certainty of creation. |
