Presented by Dr. Carol Dempsey‚ the lecture on creation is definitely worth paying close attention to. Earth’s creation is strongly rooted in theological teachings.

Crumb’s The Book of Genesis In the Bible book of Genesis‚ I never really saw it for anything except for what it was‚ a book of virtuous and holy scripture. Robert Crumb’s version has shown another side of the book of Genesis. In Crumb’s The Book of Genesis‚ there has been a graphically depicted portrayal of Genesis. This portrayal has caused much controversy among writers that view Crumb’s book as either one of the most precise depictions of the Bible’s version of Genesis‚ or as a complete mockery

The Genesis Flood‚ by Morris and Whitcomb is about how the Bible‚ “specifically the early chapters of the Genesis flood‚” explain the historical scientific story of the earth and the beginning of humans. Morris and Whitcomb argue that neither creationism nor evolution are scientific but more spiritual.
