Every Real Scientist Believes in Evolution!
Maybe you've read or heard the above quote in the opposite context that a "real" scientist would never believe in the Bible account of a six-day creation around 6,000 years ago. But on my desk I have a copy in English and in Portuguese of the book In Six Days: Why 50 (Ph.D.) Scientists Choose to Believe in Creation, complied and edited by John F. Ashton. These scientists from a why variety of fields of learning are not ashamed to be considered creationists. Neither am I. Recently a friend of mine did a presentation of the creation point of view showing three areas in science which negate the traditional evolutionary view.
The first was the problem trying to synthesize creation with evolution. It just doesn't work. It's either one or the other. Christian doctrine is based on the truth of the Genesis account. Jesus made reference to it. He said when asked about divorce,
And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife.
Jesus believed in the Creation account of Genesis. Elsewhere He spoke of Noah's Flood and Sodom and Gomorrah as literal events. If evolution and millions of years are true, then we have millions of years of death and dying before the first human. Whereas the Bible states that God made the first human out of the dust of the ground. The Bible also states that it was the disobedience of the first couple that brought death into the world. Mankind's need for a Redeemer comes from this first act of disobedience by the very first human beings.
The evolutionary story is totally different with mankind developing slowly over millions of years of chance mutations preserved by natural selection to transform living pond scum into human beings. Both stories can't be right. If evolution is true and the Genesis account is only allegorical. Jesus was therefore deceived in His belief in the Genesis account or He lied. In either case, He wouldn't be whom He claimed to be and Christianity is false. You see if you discredit Genesis you discredit the whole reason for Jesus' existence and you make salvation a none-event, not necessary. If there is no fall of man in the Garden of Eden, then there is no need for a Redeemer, for a Messiah. It all just becomes a story for children and pious woman.
Michael Denton, research biologist in his book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis has written,
As far as
Christianity was concerned, the advent of the theory of
evolution and the elimination of traditional theological thinking
was catastrophic. ... Despite the attempt by liberal theology to
disguise the point, the fact is that no biblically derived religion
can really be compromised with the fundamental assertion of
Darwinian theory. Chance and design are antithetical concepts,
and the decline in religious belief can probably be
attributed more to the propagation and advocacy by the
intellectual and scientific community of the Darwinian
version of evolution than to any other single factor. (see)

Democrats and God
Ray Comfort Blog Post
The Democratic Party’s flip-flop and the resulting anger and confusion about whether or not to put reference to God into their platform, highlighted the great weakness in our political system. The Yes and No vote is reminiscent of another vote that was taken 2,000 years ago, which resulted in the one-man steering committee washing his hands of the whole process.
This is what happens when a nation abandons the Bible as its moral guide. It has no rudder in the stormy sea of human opinion, so it is driven by whatever wind blows the hardest. When the Bible is abandoned, the question is asked, “Is killing a child in the womb morally okay?” The answer comes from those who yell the loudest. The same applies with homosexuality and other moral issues. Abraham Lincoln once said, “Our government rests in public opinion. Whoever can change public opinion, can change the government…” That becomes a weakness and not strength, when the Bible is left out of the equation.
The Scriptures are “a lamp to our feet and a light to out path.” When they are ignored we are left in moral darkness and we will soon forget the truth of the words “God mend thine every flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law!” Thomas Jefferson said "The greatest danger to American freedom is a government that ignores the Constitution." I propose a small amendment to his words. They should read, "The greatest danger to American freedom is a government that ignores the Scriptures and treats the Constitution as though it was the Word of God."
This fiasco should also remind us of Lincoln’s, “Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right.”
