Abstract

Many evolutionists claim that science has disproved the Bible and they use this claim to discredit creationism. In this paper I view the Bible from an epidemiologic perspective and attempt to show that, contrary to being disproved by science, it can be considered a general guide to medical epidemiology. The concepts of health and disease, the Creation Health Model, and the critical dependence of human health on plant life are discussed and shown to be challenges to Darwinian evolution. Human nutrition and health are immensely complex on the molecular level. I introduce the term edenomics to describe the interactions between plant phytochemicals and human cellular biology. Edenomics suggests reductionist understanding of the molecular biology of chronic diseases may remain illusive and that lifestyle may be the most important determinant of health in developed nations. It is concluded that the science of epidemiology supports the Bible and is opposed to neodarwinism.
