Book Reviews of Refuting Evolution: A Handbook for Students, Parents, and Teachers Countering the Latest Arguments for Evolution
Book Review: 20 years
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been researching the creation evolution issue for over 20 years. this book is on my top 10 list. I suppose the bad reviews are from humanists who do not like the idea of a Creator. They willingly want to believe in evolution (opposed to God), and they read this book and cannot deal with the evidence so they slander it. The book presents "FACTS." For example In the foreword of the book, Ken Ham writes of a woman coming to him after a seminar and saying she was angry. She was angry, she said, at her college professors. Why didn't they tell her there was all this contradictory evidence about evolution? How come they taught her ideas that were discarded years ago (Heackle's Embryos for example)? Why didn't they tell her that not everyone believes in the smooth transition of the fossil record? Why didn't they let her consider evidence put forth by creationists? The way she conducted her life was very dependent on her belief in origins. Why hadn't she been told about this evidence and been allowed to decide for herself if she had evolved or was created - isn't that what education is all about, she said. (Mr. Ham goes on to discuss the possible reasons for this, but I will not include them here).
Safarti says it is a fallacy to think that facts speak for themselves - facts are always interpreted according to a framework. The evolutionists' framework is naturalism. Naturalism is a philosophy, a philosophy which holds that all phenomena can be explained mechanistically in terms of natural (as opposed to supernatural) causes and laws. In other words, even if the evidence being reviewed suggests that the event in question has supernatural cause, according to naturalism, a supernatural cause must be automatically ruled out and not even considered. It is not really a question of objective unbiased scientists versus religiously biased creationists, rather the question is whose biases are correct.
The facts presented in this book do not have an evolutionary spin put on them. It deals with scientific, historic, and emperical evidence.
