The Contradictions in Creationism

"At the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Ky., I learned that Earth was created in 4004 B.C., about the same time that the Mesopotamians invented beer (“That’s on the secular timeline,” I was told). Dioramas feature children frolicking among vegetarian dinosaurs, including a Tyrannosaurus rex and Utahraptor, whose daggerlike teeth and claws, it was noted, were used for cracking open coconuts before the Fall. But then the snake tempted Eve, who in turn charmed Adam into tasting the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil—after which dinosaurs became meat eaters, humans became sinners and Noah gathered the animals into the Ark (also rendered in a dioramic drama complete with screaming left-behinders on soon-to-be swamped rocks).

I countered by pointing out that Francis Collins, former head of the Human Genome Project, is a born-again evangelical Christian who fully accepts evolution. In his book The Language of God (Free Press, 2007), Collins describes ancient repetitive elements (AREs) in DNA that arise from “jumping genes” that copy and insert themselves in other locations in the genome, usually without any function. When you align sections of human and mouse genomes, the AREs are in the same location. “Unless one is willing to take the position that God has placed these decapitated AREs in these precise positions to confuse and mislead us,” he asserts, “the conclusion of a common ancestor for humans and mice is virtually inescapable.”

Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm in Bristol, England, is run by a kindly gentleman named Anthony Bush, who insisted that I not confuse him with those “loony American creationists” who think that Earth is only 6,000 years old. “How old do you think it is?” I queried. “Oh, I’ve worked it out to be around 100,000 years old, with Adam and Eve at around 21,000 years old.” (At an order of magnitude difference that makes Mr. Bush only five zeros shy of reality.)

What about, I pressed on, all the geologic evidence for a much older Earth? All those strata of, say, sandstone—loose sand compressed into solid rock over immense periods? Those strata are laid down every season, like tree rings, Bush explained. Interesting analogy, given that we can see trees growing from year to year, but where can we find sand being annually compressed into stone?"

***

There are contradictions even between Creationist movements- what do YOU believe? Are you a creationist? Do you accept evolution? Do you accept evolution but think god created it all? Why do you believe what you believe?"At the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Ky., I learned that Earth was created in... more

"We Are All Just Star Dust"-Scientific Proof of Indigenous Teaching "We Are All Related"

Indigenous spiritual leaders have long taught that we are all related, not only to two-leggeds of all colors, human beings, but to all beings in the sacred universe including the four-leggeds, bird people, burrowing and swimming animals, insects, plant and fungi people, and the star people.
We are all related. Ho! Mitakuye Oayasin. All my relations say the Lakotah when they pray to Wakan Takan, the Great Mystery.

Lakotah teachers say we are Star People, who are also our relations, and that we originate from the Pleiades.

Now Western scientists have "discovered" that human beings very substance is related to other beings in the animal, plant, the fungi families and even the stardust from exploding stars is part of the miracle of the origin or human life on earth.

Scientists have also discovered that we are light beings and that the life energy that connects us is light energy, as indigenous and ancient healers have taught for centuries as long ago as the Ayuvedic healers in India 5,000 years ago, the Buddhist and Zen teachers of Asia, the Kabbalists and other Middle Eastern mystics, as well as European tribal healers, and witches, and Christian mystics and back to our indigenous ancestors on each continent who moved energy through the body and cleared blockages to its flow through their hands like Reiki and Western practioners of energy medicine do today.

A robotic spacecraft has been in Saturn’s orbit for three years, studying the planet and its moons. On today’s Underreported, two members of the mission explain how their discoveries provide insight into our own origins on Earth."
