The Galápagos Islands Are an Icon of Evolution—But Should They Be?

We as creationists agree with many of the actual observations that Darwin made!

You might be shocked to learn that creationists and evolutionists both agree that organisms change. We agree that some finch species have smaller beaks and others have larger ones and that beak size can give one species an advantage over another in a specific environment. We agree that such advantages may cause a population to shift in a certain direction. In other words, we as creationists agree with many of the actual observations that Darwin made! Where we disagree is how we explain the unobserved past and where traits (such as beaks) came from in the first place. The different beaks sizes are just variation in finches, and finches remain finches.

In this presentation, Dr. Jennifer Rivera does a great job explaining the history of the Galápagos and Darwin; what natural selection is; and how what Darwin observed actually confirms the Bible’s history, not his ideas about the past. I encourage you learn more by watching her presentation.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
