True Science Is Creation Science John D Morris Summary
In the article True Science Is Creation Science, written by John D.Morris, tries to convince the reader that true science is creation science. The methods they used to try to convince their reader however, fell extremely short of being even called acceptable as an explanation to why Creationism should be considered as a science. The “Evidence for Creation” provided by the Institute Creation Research was merely a video on how a hand is a versatile tool and they decided to connect it with a quote from the bible, “Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand (Isaiah 41:10).” Respectfully, I felt what they called evidence made no sense,

    “American Me” is a fictional film having a factual basis, starring and directed by Edward James Olmos. Released to the national theater circuit in 1992, “American Me” depicts the life of Rodolfo Cadena, a ranking Carnal (gang member) in the prison gang La Eme, also known as the Mexican Mafia.

    the infamous Scopes Trial of 1926. Twenty-four year old high school teacher John Thomas Scopes of Dayton, Tennessee decided to test a law called the Butler Act. Many teachers felt that honor and academic freedom along with the separation of church and state were at risk. In y 1925 Scopes was accused of teaching Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution to his class which violated the Butler Act of 1925. Scopes was provoked by the American Civil Union Act because of their promise to pay for the defense of anyone willing to violate the Butler Act. The trial brought upon two outstanding lawyers of the time, William Jennings Bryan (three-time Democratic candidate for President and a populist) in prosecution and Clarence Darrow (leading member of American Civil Liberties Union and famous for world renown criminal defense) in defense. It was believed by most scientists that biology could not be taught without making some sort of reference to the theory of evolution, but being that the people of Tennessee were such strong believers of the bible, many of the Christian Fundamentalist saw that the theory of evolution denied their religious beliefs. This trial was definitely a conflict between religion and science; hence the people of Tennessee were gravely angered by the teachings of Darwin’s theory because it contradicted the creation of man that was stated in the bible. This case was a watershed in this religion-science conflict that eventually led to three major following the trial: The Butler Act was discontinued, the Scopes Trial upheld defeat of religion over science, and the trial reflected the social conflict that took place in the American Society during the 1920s.…

    It would be difficult to look at science its methods and conclusions without looking at how any of us or anything came into being. In Genesis 1:1-4, it articulates as such, “1IN THE beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth.2The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. 3And God…

    He solely bases his beliefs on the quantity of evidence held by each side, using scientific evidence when regarding evolution and biblical literalism when regarding creationism. Dawkins from his statement concludes that based on his studies, all the evidence points towards evolution, implying that the Bible or any other religious book or testament is not a sufficient amount of data to conclude that the belief that life was created by a divine being is legitimate. Furthermore, Dawkins’ argument is captivating by distinctly claiming that he believes in one side over the other, averting from flaw of the “Integration” model, where science and religion can be basically unified as if they were in the same field of study. Additionally, Dawkins mentions the lack of evidence creationism has which can be compared to a film in which a character had the same problem,…

    In the article “The Science of Why we Don’t Believe Science”, the author Chris Mooney introduced how individuals somehow finds a way to push away and denies the science that’s being brought to their attention. In his writing, he pointed out the science of motivated reasoning and logical reasoning, whereas people may choose to identify and states their feelings on a scientific research, but most of time denying those researches. The reason for that maybe through sticking to what they think is right, basically sticking to their beliefs. Furthermore, I recognized that Mooney pointed out “motivated reasoning.” Mooney pushes toward the idea that individuals are far more likely to ignore any information that are threatening and focuses more on…

    “There are none who are as deaf as those who do not want to hear,” Barry Leventhal once said this quote (Geisler and Turek). There are so many different creation theories that people have been talking about them for centuries, none have been one hundred percent proven but all are debatable. The problem with most professionals who study creation theories is they are very stubborn. Once somebody has a plausible theory in their head they do not listen to any other theories. This quote by Barry Leventhal perfectly describes this characteristic of the professionals mentioned earlier. They are “deaf” because they refused to hear what others had to say. Many documents were written by these “deaf” professionals about their adopted theory; they…

    Five years later after the T.J incident, I decided to move to the luxurious base of Pearl Harbor in Oahu, Hawaii ("Where Is Pearl Harbor Located?") in 1938. I was living in a small apartment right outside of the base. The only reason I moved there is to pursue my dream of becoming a pilot in the Navy. I decided to sign myself up for a boot camp that was being held at the Naval Academy. I was very satisfied to see that there was not a lot of people signed up for the camp.

    The Bible is accepted by Christians as the world of God, and the word of God is accepted as them as being true, therefore Creationism is true in their eyes. According to the Bible, “Then God said, “And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us… So God created human beings, making them to be like himself. He created them male and female… God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased. Evening passed and morning came—that was the sixth day” (Gen. 1:26).…
