I've just recently heard that it's "so difficult to find good material" on good science from a creationist perspective. After all, for an evolutionary perspective, all you have to do is read the main news magazines, watch TV or listen to the radio. If you go to the library, the science shelves are full of books from an evolutionary perspective.

Creation science has been on my radar for the last 40 years or so, and I took a couple college courses just on that subject – both from Adventist universities. Since our unique message to this world is centered on a creation perspective, I was under the impression that Adventists were in the forefront of creation science. After all, George [McCready] Price was an Adventist, wasn't he? It wasn't until I taught high school for another denomination that I learned of the active creationist community "out there." And I discovered that there was much more research and publishing being done by other Christians than by Adventists. I am still amazed at the strength of the movement outside Adventist circles. They even use Sabbath arguments to support creation – without necessarily seeing that this has anything to say about their Sunday-keeping. It seems to me that God is in this movement, and He's preparing people for the great test to come.

There's some good news on the Adventist front as well. The last time the bookmobile from the Adventist Book Center came around, I purchased a copy of Evidences for Creation: Natural Mysteries Evolution Cannot Explain, by George Javor, a Loma Linda physician. I recommend it.

If you're seriously interested in the topic of how science and the Bible can fit together, there are some good Adventist resources on the internet.

You'll find a some Adventist sites on the subject in the Open Directory:
http://dmoz.org/Society/Religion_and_Spirituality/Christianity/Denominations/Seventh-day_Adventists/Origins_and_Creation/

Sean Pitman is an Adventist physician and Loma Linda graduate. He provides some food for thought at
http://www.naturalselection.0catch.com/. His articles tend to be a bit technical.

Paul Giem is another Adventist physician and instructor in the school of Emergency Medicine at Loma Linda U. He has made a life-long study of radiometric dating. (He has science degrees as well as degrees in medicine.) You can read his book, Scientific Theology online at http://www.scientifictheology.com/. Again, this isn't exactly "easy reading."

Mike Brown is an Adventist molecular biologist. He seems to have set out on a faith venture with on his own. See his sites: http://www.creation-science-prophecy.com/ and http://www.mhrc.net/

The only Adventist educational site that has good creationist material, as far as I know, is SWAU:
http://origins.swau.edu/. It's worth a visit.

Of course, there's the Geoscience Research Center (www.grisda.org ). They have some excellent materials on the site, but they are super-conservative in the sense that they do not venture very far from the strictest scientific norms.

(If you know of any more good Adventist resources, I'd be interested to hear about them. )

There is much creationist material from the wider Christian community available on the internet.

See
http://dmoz.org/Society/Religion_and_Spirituality/Christianity/Perspectives/Origins_and_Creation/ for a spectrum of sites on Creation and the Bible.

Probably the most interesting and readable scientifically reliable site is www.answersingenesis.org. This site has a lot of very interesting material and is updated constantly. The chief individuals behind this project are well-qualified scientists, generally with PhD's in their field. If a creationist argument isn't found on that site or the ones mentioned above, it's probably best not to use it.

However, there are some other excellent sites listed at dmoz.org. (Just beware of Kent Hovind or "Dr. Dino" and Carl Baugh. As interesting as they are, their "evidence" is not always reliable. I know that some Adventists have gained their understanding from videos these men put out, and that leaves them vulnerable to be proven wrong. Both men present enough excellent material to make their off-the-wall stuff sound believable. From another perspective – their off-the-wall speculations reduce their credibility so that even their good material is discredited. Their PhD's, by the way, are not the kind usually obtained after years of study at an accredited institutions. )

Among other things, you can find online a whole book I have in hard copy – In Six Days, a collection of the testimony of 50 scientists who believe in the literal account of creation as told in Genesis 1. It's interesting reading on the whole, and there are a few gems in the book. (Several Adventist scientists are among the contributors.)

If you can find your way through it, Walt Brown's book, In the Beginning, presents a plausible model of how the Flood could account for most of the geological evidence we see today:

His is not the only model, though. You'll find an interesting paper on the SWAU site:

and more material accounting for some things we see today at

You may be familiar with the Wikipedia ( www.wikipedia.com ), the internet encyclopedia. Now some folks have created a "[CreationWiki]" ( http://creationwiki.org/). It already has a sizable database of articles that can keep you reading for a good while.
