Some people think that Darwin’s Theory of Evolution in 1859 set the stage for the millions-to-billions of years of time necessary for molecules to become men. They would be wrong. The seeds of “deep time” were sown a century earlier as geologists began to question the biblical timeline of 6,000-year history inferred in the biblical record.

We are told that the universe is 13.8 billion years old and the earth trails behind at 4.6 billion years. These are well-known, accepted scientific “facts.” They appear in all our science textbooks and are propagated in all forms of media with few exceptions. Young Earth Creationists (YEC) stand on the foundational Word of God, acknowledging a biblical time frame of several thousand years. These creationists are said to demonstrate the highest form of ignorance in many circles.

Every man and woman who lives on this earth has a name. It gives them their identity. It is estimated by UNICEF that an average of 350,000 babies are born each day, each in need of a name. In most cases, they are given a name by their loving parents who seek the best for their sons and daughters. This is a distinctly human process, demonstrating man’s self-awareness apart from any other creature on earth.

By now, most people have heard of the world famous atheist Richard Dawkins. For someone whose area of expertise is supposed to be biology, Dr. Dawkins has become a very vocal proponent of atheism. He takes pride in his unflattering descriptions of the God of the Bible. He is actually gleeful when he has an opportunity to repeat his demeaning characterization of the God of Israel as noted in his interview with Ben Stein.

We have witnessed a near-miraculous event with the election of Donald Trump and Mike Pence to be president and vice president of the United States. Amidst the rumors that have swirled about President Elect, Donald Trump, is the contention by Dr. James Dobson that Paula White led Trump in the sinner’s prayer on June 29, 2016. Dr. Dobson notes that Trump is a baby Christian and that we should be praying for him.
