Adam and His Kin Preface
Thursday, February 15th, 2007
Beechick’s book begins with a preface that embraces what is typically called the “young earth” viewpoint, and this is the view point with which I agree as well. Many authors have researched and written about both viewpoints, and even laying issues of faith aside, the young earth explanation just makes sense to me. When I do take matters of faith into account, it makes even more sense. God is a God of order, not disorder. Even the most basic experiments indicate that things tend to fall apart rather than coalesce into greater and more complex things, and so the whole idea of evolution is laughable to me.
Given that this is my viewpoint, it should now be clearer why I chose to begin with Adam and His Kin. It only makes sense to begin at the beginning, does it not?
~What are your views on the actual age of the earth?
~Why do you think as you do?
