Imagine my shock! The president of a Christian college (where I was speaking) was an

eyewitness of the story he shared with me at lunch a few weeks ago.He told me that at a recent meeting of the Council for Christian Colleges

and Universities (CCCU), a leader of the group complained to the college presidents in attendance that the number one problem facing Christian colleges today is (not sexual promiscuity, not situational ethics, not the loss of biblical authority) … the “attack of young-earth creationists”!

My hosting college president said that some others at the CCCU meeting were, like him, favorable to young-earth creation. But he was concerned by the number of other college presidents who shared the perspective of the CCCU leader.

Since AiG and other creation ministries seldom get invited to speak at compromised Bible colleges and seminaries, the

“pressure” on these educational institutions must be coming from students or parents who have been well equipped by creationist seminars and resources. Of course, if these schools really had the

truth on their side, they wouldn’t fear such “fundamentalist creationist attacks.”

The students at the college where I was speaking seemed quite receptive to my messages. But at my lecture to the faculty, very few of the professors who believe in millions of years were in attendance. There seemed to be an unwillingness

even to consider arguments from the Bible and science. So although the president was very supportive of me being

on campus, some of his professors are teaching things that undermine faith in Genesis. It is no wonder that some students get confused!

A few weeks later, I spoke in a church in another state. “Eric,” who had just graduated from another “conservative” Christian college,

took me to lunch. During my morning talks, he had not really grasped the point I made about no death before the fall. So I explained further

of years into the Bible.Eric told me that at his

college his professors largely ignore the creation-evolu-tion issue. In his only class where it was dealt with, the professor “taught all the views within orthodoxy” (meaning the gap theory, theistic evolution, day-age view, young-earth view, etc.) and seemed to favor the compromise view of day-age. It left Eric perplexed and unsure of what to believe about Genesis.

These and other recent experiences highlight again the crisis of biblical authority facing the church. Thousands of Christian professors have bowed the knee to evolution-ary “science” and they end up undermining the authority of Scripture in the minds of the next generation (including its pastors).

We all need to tremble at God’s Word (Isaiah 66:2). Get some of the excellent resources shown in this newsletter so that together

we can increase the “pres-sure” on Christian colleges to believe, teach and defend God’s Word without apology or compromise.

$25 million

$15.54 mreceived as of May 31, 2005

$430 K PER

MONTH FOR A

2007 OPENING

Museum donations to date total $15.54 million. Monthly giving must average $430,000 for a 2007 opening. Actual museum donations for the last year averaged $313,000 per month. Your gift of any size combined with others can make a difference!

We don’t have his birth certifi cate, but we estimate

that he’s about 4,500 years old. That’s nothing com-pared to the 65-million-year age assigned to him by our evolutionary counterparts (but it’s still pretty old by our standards).

In the spring here in our Tri-state area near Cin-cinnati, we added our fi rst full dinosaur skeleton (a cast from the original) to the Creation Museum collection. Joining our collection of real dinosaur bones and eggs is a huge

17-foot long triceratops! It’s truly special for

another reason: he’ll prob-ably be the fi rst dinosaur

skeleton that people will have ever seen in a museum that actually tells the truth about its origins!

Newest museum team member is the oldest!

Did God create

six days?The universe and all in it screams, ‘There is a God!’

(Romans 1:18–21), but the universe cannot tell us

how it was made, its history, how we should live our

lives, or about when its Creator came to Earth.

How old is the earth? 4.5 billion

years? 10,000 years? 6,000 years?

These fi gures (and others) have been tossed

around as the “real” age of the earth. So, since

they can’t all be true, how can we know how old

the earth really is?

After all, none of us has been around since the begin-

ning of time in order to know how long ago it was. So we can

only guess at what happened and when—unless, of course, there was

a record written down for us by someone who was there at the very beginning. Then we

could study that record and fi gure out how long ago “the beginning” was.

Actually, we do have such a record (the 66 books of the Bible), which was given to us by

someone who was there in the beginning—God. Now, the Bible doesn’t say, “God created

the earth ... years ago.” But it does give us some clues. To fi gure out the age of the earth,

you’ll need your Bible, a sheet of paper and a pencil (and a little help from us).

First, make 3 columns on your paper, labelled “Verse,” “Event” and “Age of Earth (in

years).” We’ll give you the fi rst one:

UPCOMING Events

Fascinating new web featureOur new website design includes a

front-page link to AiG President Ken Ham’s daily “blog.”

A blog is a web-based journal (coming from the words “web” and “log”). Ken’s blog features daily news,

photos and even some humor regard-ing the “behind-the-scenes” happen-ings both at the AiG offices and from his travels.

“My faith in God was literally dying

until I happened upon your web-

site [www.AnswersInGenesis.org].

Previously, I just couldn’t justify my

beliefs when the media was constantly

coming up with more ‘evidence’ as to

why the Bible is just a fairy tale.

“I was breaking down intellectually

due to my own lack of answers. I

almost lost my beliefs.

“Please continue your hard work.

Your [website] is an inspiration to us

who are not scientists.”

—C.M. (in the military)

Bad news for babiesThe “stem cell wars” have heated up again. For AiG’s response to the report that South Korean researchers have cloned several human embryos (destined to be killed, for they will be harvested), and have bypassed the clear statements of Scripture in the name of “healing,” go to www.answersingenesis.org/korean-clone.

Rally ’round the museumIf you’re a motorcycle enthusi-

ast, we hope you’ve already jotted down the date of Saturday, August 13. That’s AiG’s annual Creation Museum Motorcycle Rally.

Many states were represented in last year’s rally (see photo below), including a group that cycled hundreds of miles up I-75 from Georgia to the museum in Northern Kentucky.

When most people think of charitable contributions,

they think of personal gifts from individuals to ministries or other charities. However, corporations and owners of other business enti-ties can also give donations and receive important tax benefi ts.

For example, ordinary “C” corporations are eligible for deductions of up to 10% of their adjusted taxable income. “S” corporations, partnership, and limited liability companies are “pass-through” entities, so their contributions are allocated and the tax benefit is passed through to the individual part-ners and shareholders who make the gifts.

If you would like more information on smart business strategies for charitable giving, please call John Pence at (800) 350-3232, ext. 483.

“Here is a picture of Joe (a friend of mine [at below right]), who

has been reading Creation magazine with me. Even here, in Iraq, I have been getting your magazine, and it has been opening new doors and spark-ing conversations with my friends and co-workers about God and the Bible.

“It has been really awesome to see God work in so many ways over here, and one of those ways has been through Creation. When I fi rst arrived here, I faced quite a few questions

from a skeptic, specifically about evolution.

“I really appreciate all of the help and resources you have given me over the years to use for God’s ministries wherever I have been. They are really great.”

—Chris, serving in the US military in Iraq

Did you know that AiG’s proc-lamation of the creation/gospel message is leading

to changed lives? After a speaking tour of

Japan, I received a wonderful fax, telling me that a veterinarian had received Christ because of the book The Lie: Evolution.

The fax came from a Chris-tian who works with an interna-tional ministry program based in Japan. He told us that he’d purchased a copy of my book The Lie in the Japanese language and used it to help answer the questions from a veterinarian.

The answers he read in the book opened the way for this doctor to fi nally pray to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. That’s always exciting news to hear!

At AiG, we receive testi-monies such as this one all the time. Many are found in our book Why won’t they Listen?(see p. 5). You see, we don’t just preach creation vs. evolu-tion. We show how Genesis is the foundation to our entire understanding of the Bible … and even to our relationship with Jesus Christ.

Through this way of teach-ing and defending Scripture, many people have given their lives over to Christ as their Lord and Savior. Yes, many people are hearing the gospel through Answers in Genesis! —Ken HamAdapted from the July 27, 2005 broad-cast of the Answers … with Ken Ham radio program.
