One more weapon in the arsenal against evolution has just become available.
No longer does the Christian creationist need to rely only on the Bible and some quasi-scientific facts to fight against this doctrine of Atheism.
This book lays out the biological evidence against evolution in an easy to understand way, and it also provides a depth to science that few books have been able to do.
This book is a must for senior high school students who want to know what biology can tell them about origins.
It shows that biology, loud and clear, supports the belief that the human race started with Adam and Eve, that Noah's flood wiped out all the people on the earth except for those saved in the Ark, that species were created to reproduce after their own kind, and that the evolution/creation debate can be used as a fantastic way to show the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ.

“Not another book on the evolution/creation debate! Hasn’t enough been said?”
Before writing A Christians' Guide To Defeating Evolution, I often asked myself this very same question.
This controversy has gone on far too long, and has consumed more resources than I would care to imagine.
And just when there appears to be a lull in this war of ideas, another flare-up occurs.
For instance, whenever Creationists start to get a voice in the educational system in the States, the Evolutionists are there even before the first verse is quoted.
Armed with court orders, they are able to impose their beliefs on students without any consideration for basic human
rights, such as the freedom of speech, or the freedom of religion.
By their actions, Evolutionists, many of whom are dedicated Christians, make Creationists feel repressed in a society that will not allow them to express their beliefs in a young-earth or in the literal interpretation of the first book of the Bible.
Evolutionists make science and fundamental Christianity appear to be antithetical, promoting the dogma that science can only be understood from an evolutionary perspective.
As David Suzuki, well known for his science programs on Canadian television, has written:
“Evolution is an informative and enlightening lens under which we can scrutinize the
natural world, including human history.
Denying or ignoring this theory hobbles us intellectually to the point that it becomes virtually impossible to understand nature.”
(Science Matters Syndicated Newspaper Column, February 2000).
So why another book on the evolution/creation debate?
Because over my years of experience as a university professor engaged in teaching and research, I have come to the realization that the Evolutionists are right about one thing.
Creation Science is religiously based, and teaching young-earth, six-day creationism in the public school system is bringing religious ideas into the classroom.
Even the concept of intelligent design, which claims that the design in nature is scientific proof of a designer, has been accused by Evolutionists as being Creation Science in disguise.
