Millions of people visit Natural History Museums every year. This book evaluates the 13 leading evidences that are presented in these museums from a both a biblical and scientific perspective.
Natural History Museums present origins and history through a single viewpoint: evolution over millions of years. But the Bible tells a different story: an Almighty Creator who recently spoke creation into existence, created animals after their kinds and Adam and Eve to rule over them. Do these museums really make better sense of the fossils from the past? Or, does the Bible’s account of Creation, the Fall, and the Flood fit the evidence better? This book evaluates the 13 leading evidences that are presented in these museums from a both a biblical and scientific perspective: the Human-Chimp 99% Myth, key ape-to-human icons like Ardipithecus ramidus, “Lucy” the Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Neanderthals, the Human Family “Tree,” Darwin’s Finches, the fossil record and transitional forms, Continental drift and Pangea, Dinosaurs, Whale Evolution, historical vs. observational science, and deep time based on radiometric dating.
