Abstract

In the first article in this series (CRSQ 21:115-19) the author stated a positive, scientifically objective alternative to the "conventional wisdom" of a mechanistic, materialistic origin of the universe and life on the earth, and an animalistic origin of human beings. He listed support data, and demonstrated the validity of Total Creationism and Total Evolutionism as contrasting viewpoints about origins: (1) the former a set of ideas based upon belief in Eternal, Personal Creator God Who created all things, (2) the latter a contrasting set of ideas based upon the belief that all things derived from some Eternal, Impersonal Matter-Energy condition. Further he contrasted inquiries about the present involving scientific hypotheses and theories, and inquiries about the past involving unnatural singularities and speculation about what "could have been" or what "might have happened." This article contains discussion of specific examples and illustrations of the above points as applied to teaching about the origin of the universe.
