Who Has Been Deceived?

I like to ask people the question: "Not to believe in Evolution is foolish, isn't it?" Then I like to ask another question: "Do you believe that accepting Evolution is intellectual?" Most people will answer yes to these two questions, which is no real surprise because that is what we are taught in our schools and academic institutions.

I like questions so I have to ask another very important question: "Have you ever looked at the scientific evidence for Creation?" Invariably most people stand looking at me in stunned disbelief. "What? Scientific evidence for Creation? Don't be absurd, there isn't any!" This is what's going through most people's minds in response to my question. But there is also a note of caution, as most people sense that something unforeseen is coming. They are right.

My next question is: "How can you make an intellectual decision about origins if you are only given one side of the story?" The answer is that you can't! All you can do is believe what you are told or not believe it. However, since we are not given anything else to compare it with we accept what we are told. "Its only the religious fools who believe in Creation. Its just a story but not a true one." Is how Creation is dealt with but the scientific evidence is not examined.

In view of this and there being compelling evidence for Creation, how can believing in Evolution be an intellectual position based on intellectual choice? Especially when you have never been given the chance to weigh up the evidence with that of Creation? It is not an intellectual position but a faith position!

I have yet another question: "Why were you not given the scientific evidence for Creation to compare with the evidence for Evolution?" The answer to this is obvious. Because the academic establishment is bigoted against Creation and a Creator. Not only is this so but they are dishonest in the extreme. They manipulate you into thinking that believing Evolution is the only intellectual thing to believe - "only a fool would not believe it." They refuse to give you the choice by giving equal emphasis to the scientific evidence for Creation. I find the scholastic system, in our world, completely dishonest and totally one sided.

When I became a Christian I was a committed Evolutionist. I did not believe in the Adam and Eve story as it seemed ridiculous to me. That was how I had been conditioned by my schooling and the media. It was only a few years later, after talking to some Scientists who were Christians, that I was first confronted with the scientific evidence for Creation. It made great sense and to be honest it made far more sense than what I had believed up to that point. It was at this point that I was free to make an informed, intellectual decision based on the evidence put before me.

Most people say that if you believe in Creation you are deceived. I believe that the ones deceived are those who have not had the opportunity to decide for themselves and yet believe that they have made an intellectual decision.

Since I was first confronted with the evidence for Creation I have found it a very interesting study and I would like to encourage you to study it yourself. The pages in this section are designed to help you think through some of the issues. I hope you are challenged as you see that there is something for you to give real consideration in these pages. Happy thinking.
