HOW TO DO RESEARCH WORK

Survey the field, narrow your search, andselect a topic. Browse through the materialin this book. Use the table of contents tohelp you. Locate a topic of special interest.Read the chapter and related material whichmost nearly deals with that subject. Decidehow narrow or broad you want to makeyour report (that is, how many differentthings you want to include).

Deepen your research:Search the index in this book for further

information on key points mentioned in thechapter. Look up key words about yourresearch topic. They will lead you to otherkey words to check on. For example: Indexfossils might lead you to trilobites which,among other things, will lead you to evi-dence that humans lived during the Cam-brian period when trilobites did.

Go to our website (evolution-facts.org) andsearch there. It contains data not found inthis book,—especially the appendixes at theback of each chapter, which are filled withquotations by scientists.

PAPERBACK

The following material, which is omittedfrom this book, is included in our 3-volume set and on our website:

Chapter 11, Cellular Evolution. This materialwas omitted from this book. Although itdescribed some of the marvelous intricaciesof the cell, it was actually a “design chap-ter” and not replying to specific evolution-ary claims.

Chapter 30 - The Scopes Trial. Only a briefparagraph of this excellent coverage is inthis book (Chapter 1).

Chapter 31 - Scientists Speak. Only a few ofthe large number of statements by scientistsand evolutionists are included in this book.

Chapter 34 - Evolution and Education. Morewill be found on our website than is in-cluded in Chapter 31.

Chapter 37 - Philosophy of Evolution. *KarlPopper is the leading “evolutionary philoso-pher,” and his “testability” definition of truescience rules out evolutionary theory.

Chapter 38 - Fallacies of Evolution. Fallaciesof logic are discussed here, and they applyperfectly to evolutionary claims.

Chapter 39 - Chronology of the AncientNear East. The researcher might find thislist handy. An approximate list of dates isgiven, going back 6000 years.

Chapters 4 - Matter and Stars. The last partof that chapter, on stars, galactic systems,and a section on space travel is not in this

968 Science vs. Evolution

present book.Also omitted from this book are nearly all the

large collections of material in the followingchapters in the 3-volume set and in ourwebsite: Chapters 8 (The Earth), 12(Plants), 16 (Invertebrates), 20 (Amphib-ians and Reptiles), 24 (Fish), 28 (Birds), 32(Marsupials and Mammals), 36 (Man), and40 (More Wonders of Design). These are all“design chapters,” and show what is actuallythe most powerful argument of all for Cre-ation: the “argument by design.” The wondersof nature not only testify to the fact thatevolutionary claims and mechanisms arefallacious, but they clearly point to the factthat they were created by an Intelligence withmassive capabilities. These design chaptersessentially consist of a large number of“nature nuggets,” facts about some of themany astounding things in nature whichtestify to the Creatorship of God. The “argu-ment by design” is actually the most powerfulevidence that God is the Creator.

———————————————EVOLUTION COULD NOT DO THIS

There are several different blackpoll warblers, eachof which travels to different places. The Alaskan black-poll warbler is an intriguing little creature, with abilitieswhich baffle scientists.

He doubles his weight twice a year, without addingany fat. In the process, his tiny body goes from 1/2 oz. to1 oz. in weight.

In the autumn of each year he begins a 5,000-milejourney to a far distant land, without the use of any mapsto help him. The entire trip is made non-stop by a one-ounce bird!

While still in Alaska, without knowing what theword, “barometer” means, the little fellow waits for alow-pressure weather system to arrive. Of course, high-and low-pressure weather had come and gone through-out the summer, but he knows just the right time to payattention to this one.

When it arrives, it brings with it a wind from thenorthwest, and off he goes! Flying steadily for four daysand four nights, our little friend flies 3,000 miles andarrives at the New England coast.

But he does not stop there, but flies on and on. How-ever, this time, he changes his flight plan: Heading southover the ocean, he flies higher into the sky—increasinghis altitude to nearly 16,000 feet! Most humans cannotsuddenly go to that elevation—3 miles high—withoutneeding to recuperate for a time before doing anythingstrenuous. For 40 hours our little friend flies on and on,without map or compass over the trackless ocean. It isbitterly cold and there is almost no oxygen. Scientistsbelieve that, at night, he may look up at some of thestars for guidance! Eventually, he arrives in Venezuelawhere he winters over. Next spring, he will double hisweight again and make the return trip, following the sameroute to Alaska—another 5,000-mile journey.

By the way, what do you think he eats in order tosupply him with the energy to travel 10,000 miles a year?Bugs that he catches. It has been estimated that, in rela-tion to relative amounts of “fuel tanks” each has, anautomobile would need an engine which could provideit with 720,000 miles per gallon—in order to accom-plish what this tiny bird does.

Evolution requires haphazard change and haphaz-ard activity, in order to produce the intricate things withinour bodies and amazing things that all of us can do.

But what about the tiny Alaskan blackpoll warbler.Who told him to do what he does? Why does he do it?


Each bird has the type of feet it needs. Land birdshave short legs and heavy feet; wading birds have long

legs; swimming birds have webbed feet; perching birdshave slender legs and small feet; scratching birds havestout feet and moderately long legs.

Each bird has just the type of beak it needs. Seed eat-ers have short, blunt beaks; woodpeckers have long, sharpbeaks; insect-eating birds have slender beaks; ducks andgeese have beaks fitted for gathering food from the mudand grass.

Birds are designed for lightness, since most of themfly, and many need buoyancy in the water. The bones arehollow and filled with air. There are large air sacs in thebody. Feathers enclose more air spaces. All the air inside abird’s body is heated 10-20oF above that of a human body.This heated air gives added lift and buoyancy to the bird.

Because the air in a bird’s body is lighter in weightthan anything else, birds balance by shifting the air load!A bird is able to automatically shift air from one body airsac to another, so that it can maintain its balance whileflying. If a bird did not do this, it could not maintain itsbalance in flight.

A bird has rib muscles just as we do, but it also hasflying muscles. When it is resting, a bird breathes by itsrib muscles as do other animals. But when it flies, the ribmuscles cease operating—and the ribs become immobile.This is because the strong flying muscles must have a solidanchorage on the rigid bony frame. How then does the birdbreathe while it is flying? The wing muscles cause the airsacs to expand and contract, and this provides oxygen tothe bird in flight; since its lungs are not operating properlydue to locked ribs. It tood a lot of thought to design that.

Birds that feed out in open fields will tend to be morebrilliantly colored. This is because they can see their en-emies at a distance. Birds living in the woods and thicketswill tend to have protective coloration, since they cannotas easily escape from enemies.

Water birds spend much of their time floating on thewater, so they have thick, oily skin and a thick coat offeathers which water cannot penetrate. Diving birds havea special apparatus, so they can expel air from their bod-ies. In this way, they become heavier and can stay under-water more easily.


The water ouzel (oo-zul) looks like a normal robin. Ithas no webbed feet or fins. But, flying to a rock on theedge of a river, it jumps in and swims underwater—evenwhen the current is very swift. Landing on the river bot-tom, it turns over stones and eats water creatures. Then itflies up and out of the water. When it is time to prepare itsnest, the ouzel flies through a waterfall and builds it onmossy rocks behind that cascading flood of water. Eachtime it goes to and from the nest, it flies through the water-fall.

Research Guide


Looking into a cell, enlarged to the size of a city—“On the surface of the cell we would see millions ofopenings, like the portholes of a vast space ship, open-ing and closing to allow a continual steam of materialsto flow in and out. If we were to enter one of these open-ings we would find ourselves in a world of supreme tech-nology and bewildering complexity. We would see end-less highly organized corridors and conduits branchingin every direction away from the perimeter of the cell,some leading to the central memory bank in the nucleusand others to assembly plants and processing units. Thenucleus itself would be a vast spherical chamber morethan a kilometer in diameter, resembling a geodesic domeinside of which we would see, all neatly stacked togetherin ordered arrays, the miles of coiled chains of the DNAmolecule . . We would notice that the simplest of thefunctional components of the cell, the protein molecules,were astonishingly complex pieces of molecular machin-ery . . Yet the life of the cell depends on the integratedactivities of thousands, certainly tens, and probably hun-dreds of thousands of different protein molecules.”—Michael Denton, Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, pp. 328-329.


Evolutionary theory cannot explain this: Some-thing beyond DNA is needed to produce each growingcreature—“If DNA were in control of development, thenI should be able to produce a replica of myself by put-ting my DNA in a human egg that has had its own DNAremoved . . Adult cells contain the same DNA as a fer-tilized egg. But the cells of an adult animal differ mark-edly from each other in form and function. If they havethe same DNA, why are they so different? . .

“[1] Evidence that programs within genes do notcontrol development: 1. Placing foreign DNA into anegg does not change the species of the egg or embryo. 2.DNA mutations can interfere with development, but theynever alter its endpoint. 3. Different cell types arise inthe same animal even though all of them contain thesame DNA. 4. Similar developmental genes are foundin animals as different as worms, flies, and mammals . .

“[2] Evidence against Neo-Darwinism [the muta-tion theory of evolution]: 1. Embryonic development isnot controlled by the genetic program. 2. Mutations donot produce the sorts of changes needed for evolution. 3.Except at the level of antibiotic and insecticide resis-tance, there are no good examples of evolution due tochanges in gene frequencies.”—Jonathan Wells, in Signsof Intelligence, p. 201 (2001).

————————————————EVOLUTION COULD NOT DO THIS

Billions of processes occur every second within everysquare inch of your body, requiring the direct guidance ofGod.

For example, your body is composed of tiny cells—sosmall that there are 1,000 of them in an area the size of thedot at the end of this sentence. Here is how protein is madewithin each of those cells:

Among many other things, there are codons in yourcell DNA. The sequence they are in determines the pre-cise order in which amino acids will be linked up, so thatproteins and enzymes (a type of protein) can be made.There are 20 types of amino acids and over 2,000 differenttypes of proteins and enzymes, each with its own compli-cated structure which must be continually manufactured—and they are constructed extremely fast by protein particleswhich have no brains!

In brief, the DNA contains the blueprint, and the RNAuses it to make the various proteins and enzymes.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) copies the code from a partof the DNA strand (the process is called “transcription”).The mRNA then travels with the information over to theribosomes, an assembly area made of ribosomal RNA(rRNA). Meanwhile, transfer RNA (tRNA) in the cyto-plasm is busily combining with exactly the right aminoacids needed by the rRNA for the task, and then carriesthem over to the ribosomes to be matched up with themRNA. All done by particles without brains.

At the same time, other ignorant proteins go to thecell wall and haul back amino acids which just entered bythemselves (usually just the exact amount needed!) to theDNA for this assembly operation.

Where do those additional amino acids come from?Exactly the correct number and type of amino acids mustjump off the blood cells which are speeding by at fairlyfast rate, and push through the solid wall of the cell. (Thewall itself keeps everything not needed from entering.)Once inside, the amino acids are taken to the assemblyarea. All these functions are done by mindless substances,yet everything is done extremely fast and in just the rightway. From piles of 20 different kinds of amino acids, over2,000 different—extremely complex—proteins and en-zymes are formed, to replace worn-out ones. Also see pp.280-281.

But that is not the end of the amazing story. As soonas each new protein is made, it instantly folds into an ap-parently tangled heap—but which is always in the exactshape that the protein should be in.

This process is repeated trillions of times every sec-ond in your body by unthinking particles, lacking nervecells attached to your brain.

(Mad cow disease is caused by eating meat protein,not folded correctly. The original cause was eating old meatwhich, after death, had refolded.)

I am not here making request that such alaw be invented, but that it be acknowledged;for it already exists.

This is a unique chapter, not normally foundin creationist books. Yet it concerns somethingthat is very important in our world and whichshould be recognized as such.

When Sir Isaac Newton announced the lawof gravity, in his book, the Principia in 1687,he did not “prove” its existence. He only ac-knowledged that it was already operating, andthen cited several mathematical formulas aboutit. Natural laws are never “made;” instead, theirexistence is acknowledged and several factsabout them are stated.

Newton’s law did not show what gravitywas; it explained neither its nature nor its cause.It only noted some ways by which it operated.We cannot expect to be able to do more thanthat when elucidating the Law of Creatorship.

Although we can explain neither the causenor the nature of life, a vast amount of evidencehas been uncovered which clarifies a portion ofthe many ways by which it functions.

All the evidence from nature, including thelarge amount given in this book, points to a Cre-ator God who made living creatures and keepsthem alive.

The fact that you are alive is as obvious asthe fact that, if you jump in the air, gravity willquickly bring you back to the ground.

I differ from other creationists, in that I donot consider creation to be a theory, standing in


opposition to the theory of evolution. Nowherein this book will you find the suggestion that cre-ation is a theory. A theory is a collected set ofhypotheses, such as relativity, the quantum theory,evolution, and plate tectonics.

In strong contrast, creation is an establishedfact. An unprejudiced person need only study thestructure and function of a hummingbird, mostof which (without the feathers) is about the sizeof a bean, and he will be convinced of this fact.Or reseach into all that is involved in the humaneye. Creation is a daily reality far beyond the theo-retical stage!

What are some of the characteristics of natu-ral laws? They are all-pervasive and everywhereapplicable. They are regular in their occurrance.They consistently apply. They can be repeatedlyobserved in the laboratory or field; and theorems,principles, and laws can be formulated based onthem. Exceptions can be explained as consistentwith damage by accidents or mutations, not byprimal origin.

The natural law of creatorship can be identi-fied, in its application to each created object, byseveral qualities: precise coordination of manyparts, intelligently and careful design, extremecomplexity, specified complexity, irreduciblecomplexity, a unified wholeness, and a reality un-explainable by any other causal agency.

This law of creatorship also covers one otherunique and very astounding aspect, that of life.Just as scientists cannot make gravity out of non-gravity, or tinker with gravity (making it heavieror lighter), so they cannot impart life to some-thing non-living. (Resuscitating a person wouldnot count, for life was still present and the heartneed only be restarted.) The reality of life as partof a natural law should be acknowledged.

The law of creatorship is as solid, unerring,and undisprovable as is the law of gravity. It isreally an already proven fact, and we should ac-knowledge it as such. It should be placed in thehalls of science as a respected law. The cre-

975The Law of Creatorship

atorship of God was fully accepted by working,successful scientists for over 500 years beforeDarwin’s foolishness was extolled. They con-sidered His creatorship to be a universally ap-plicable fact.

The fact of creation requires a Creator. There-fore, I call it the law of creatorship, rather thanthe law of life or the law of creation. Creationcannot be explained apart from a super-intelli-gent, all-powerful Maker, who designed andmade all things. The great truth remains: “In Himwe live and move, and have our being.”

The law of creatorship also explains naturalphenomena which are not living. For example,in 1680, Newton calculated that an inversesquare law of gravitational attraction betweenthe sun and the planets explained the ellipticalorbits earlier discovered by Kepler. Yet the pre-cise means by which all the planets are locatedexactly at certain distances from the sun, orbitat precisely certain speeds, and maintain theirnecessary elliptical configurations—requiressomething beyond Newton’s three laws of mo-tion and the counteracting law of gravity whichtogether keep them in balance in their orbits.Something else is at work, continually guidingall this, so the planets do not fall into the sun!

Our moon, with a mass only one-eighth anda gravity only one-sixth that of earth, is exactlyheld in orbit by its speed of rotation and mutualgravity between it and the earth. This sustainedbalance is too precise to be explained by any-thing other than the law of creatorship.

Chapter 18 in this book discusses the sec-ond law of thermodynamics, which also pointsus directly toward the law of creatorship. Indeed,the properties of this law of entropy require it.

“The Second Law of Thermodynamics re-fers to the qualitative degeneration of energy.That energy decay is also called “entropy.” En-tropy increases as matter or energy becomesless useable . . The Second Law states that allsystems will tend toward the most mathemati-cally probable state, and eventually become to-

tally random and disorganized. To put it in thevernacular, apart from a Higher Power, every-thing left to itself will ultimately go to pieces.All science bows low before the SecondLaw.”—pp. 747-748.

The Second Law declares that all of nature,throughout the universe, is running down—andthereby points us to a Creator which made it.

In addition, the First Law of Thermodynam-ics states that, since matter/energy can neithermake itself nor eliminate itself, only an outsideagency or power could bring it into existence.Thus, that law also points to the Law of Crea-torship.

The usual reply by evolutionary scientists isthat nothing can be scientifically accepted asgenuine, or existing, until it has been duplicatedby scientists in one laboratory, and then repeatedin other laboratories.

In reply, I say that, first, scientists do nothave to make a gull’s wing in a laboratory inorder to believe that it exists. Second, a gull’swing could not be made in a laboratory anyway!

In reality, just as one scientist can examinea gull’s wing and another scientist can afterwardverify his findings, so researchers should feelfree to consider some of the many truly awe-some wonders of living creatures and, based onthose otherwise unexplainable marvels, ac-knowledge the Law of Creatorship. Only Godcould make and sustain those amazing things.There is no other answer.

That is the scientific proof of the law. Theliving, functioning existence of living creaturesis the undeniable evidence. It may be rejected,but cannot scientifically be denied.

Read again Chapter 27 of this book (pp. 927-945), and acknowledge the truth of the situa-tion. Creation is not a theory, but a fact. It is nota hypothesis, but one of the grand laws of mat-ter and existence.

Great evils have fallen upon our world to-day because the God who made it is no longerrecognized by so many in the world.

There is a controversy in the western civi-lized world today over “stem cell research.” Thepurpose of this report is to provide you with thereal facts about the matter.

It is being said that, if federal funds were allo-cated to embryonic stem cell research, most won-derful medical cures would result,—cures whichcould be obtained by no other means.

Here is a brief summary of the situation:• The spending of private funds on embryonic

stem cell research is not prohibited in America.Private and corporate money can be spent on theresearch, if this is desired. The quarrel is over thefact that the federal government will not providethe research funds.

• To date, in spite of extensive private re-search, embryonic stem cells have not beenfound capable of healing anything! That is whylittle private research money is currently beingallocated to embryonic stem cell research. It neverproduces any useable results.

• The problem is that embryonic stem cellstend to go wild and do not multiply into thekind of cells that researchers want them to.

• Embryonic stem cell research would re-quire killing fertilized human eggs. In otherwords, human beings would be killed. A tinyhuman being must be destroyed, so its cells can be

extracted.“Many ask this question: When does

the baby start existing? Various theo-ries have been proposed. The answer issimple enough: The baby begins exist-ing as soon as growth begins. That isobvious; as soon as the baby beginsgrowing. Growth begins as soon as thetwo cells (the sperm and the egg) unite.From that point onward, a new personexists.”—Vance Ferell, Natural Rem-edies Encyclopedia, Fourth Edition, p.669.

• The use of adult stem cells does not re-quire killing human babies and has been foundto work quite efficiently in effectively treatingmany physical problems.

• Why then is there demand from liberalsfor embryonic stem cell research? The answeris simple enough: First, the hue and cry is beingraised in order to embarrass the current U.S. presi-dent. Second, the liberals want yet another op-portunity to kill babies—because doing sowould strengthen their case, that it is alright tokill unborn children. Keep in mind that the abor-tion industry is extremely profitable. Millions ofdollars siphoned from the profits are channeledinto political action committees which are de-manding more federal funds for Planned Parent-hood, more protection for abortion mills, full legal-


I had several pages to fill at the back of this book, so I thought I wouldinclude a medical research study which I wrote two years ago in 2004. Itprovides facts which, if more widely known, might prevent the killing ofembryonic humans for medical research. Therefore it is included here.We should oppose the killing of babies, even the smallest ones. Sharethis information with others. A major cover-up is being carried out, in or-der to cheapen the value of unborn children. vf

THE TRUTH ABOUTSTEM CELL RESEARCH

Facts which could save lives

ization of embryo body parts sale, embryonic stemcell research, and (eventually) human cloning.

Although, at the Democratic Convention, JohnKerry and Ron Reagan received standing applauseand newspaper headlines for criticizing WhiteHouse limits on federal funding of embryonic stemcell research, the entire matter is a smoke screen.No breakthroughs in the treatment of disease arebeing blocked by the government. Scientists them-selves know the truth, that embryonic stem cellsare useless in the treatment of disease.

“Candidate John Kerry is spreadingvery serious misinformation regardingstem cell research. Among many er-rors, he insists that miraculous curesare just around the corner. Leavingaside the serious ethical concerns withdestroying human embryos, the resultsof embryonic stem cell research are nil.Destructive embryonic stem cell re-search has not treated a single pa-tient or a single disease. Adult stemcells, however, have successfullytreated thousands of patients andmore than 90 diseases.”—AustinRuse, president, Culture of Life Foun-dation.

One reason that not one human being hasever been treated with embryonic stem cells isthe fact that those cells are known to create ma-lignant tumors in lab animals.

Dr. D.G. McKay, of the National Institute forNeurological Diseases and Stroke, has called thenotion that embryonic stem cells will provide anantidote to Alzheimer’s disease a “fairy tale.” Nohuman clinical trials are being conducted, us-ing embryonic stem cells because of their un-predictability and the lack of treatment successduring animal testing.

But there is a kind of stem cell research that isaccomplishing extraordinary results; and, with fur-ther research, it will accomplish even more. But itis one which the media does not tell you about. Itinvolves adult stem cells.

While embryonic stem cell research requires

the loss of life, the use of adult stem cells do notkill one person in order to help another one.They do not kill a tiny human being.

SOURCES OF STEM CELLS

There are five sources of stem cells. The firsttwo below (embryonic and fetal stem cells) re-quire the destruction of a human being:

1. Embryonic stem cells - are harvested fromthe inner cell mass of the blastocyst seven to tendays after fertilization, during early cell differen-tiation. The embryo at this stage may be up to200 cells in size.

2. Fetal stem cells - are often taken from thegermline tissues that will make up the ovaries ortestes of aborted fetuses.

The following three types of stem cells arecategorized as “adult stem cells,” because theydo not require killing small humans. Therefore,in this present report, they are included in thephrase, “adult stem cells.”

3. Umbilical cord stem cells - Umbilical cordblood contains stem cells similar to those found inthe bone marrow of newborns.

4. Placenta derived stem cells - AnthrogensisCorporation recently announced the developmentof a commercial process that can extract ten timesas many stem cells from a placenta as from cordblood.

5. Adult stem cells - Tissues, like bone mar-row, lung, pancreas, brain, breast, fat, skin, andeven tooth pulp contain stem cells that have beenisolated.

Of all the above five types of stem cells, onlythe last three are useable in the treatment ofdisease. The first two, when removed from theirnormal location, “go wild” and do not grow intosomething predictable.

“The great advantage of embryonicstem cells is that they can differentiateinto 210 different types of tissue. This isalso their greatest weakness. How doesa scientist direct development down justone path [instead of going in another of210 paths]? Geron [Corporation] re-searchers at the December 2000 meet-

977Stem Cell Research

ing of the Society of Neuroscience re-ported that they had attempted to trans-plant human embryonic stem cells intothe brains of rats. The embryonic stemcells did not differentiate into brain cells.They stayed in disorganized clusters andbrain cells near them began to die.”—Christian Medical and Dental Associa-tion statement.

THREE TYPES OF STEM CELLS

This will help clarify why only adult stem cellscan be used in the treatment of disease:

There are three types of stem cells: (1) totipo-tent stem cells, (2) pluripotent stem cells, (3) andmultipotent stem cells.

Totipotent stem cells are in a fertilized hu-man egg and can become an entire human being.(What a miracle of God!). But they cannot be usedto multiply into the cell or organ that the researcherwants them to.

Pluripotent stem cells, such as those found ina seven-day-old embryo (a blastocyst), can developinto any body cell type; and, in some cases, theycan become an entire human being. But they areuseless for the treatment of specific diseases.

Unlike the above two, adult stem cells, alsocalled multipotent stem cells, can only differen-tiate into the same type of tissue cell. For ex-ample, a bone marrow stem cell can differentiateinto a monocyte (a white blood corpuscle) or lym-phocyte. This is because the blood is made in thebone marrow. But a bone marrow stem cell can-not form into kidney, heart, muscle, or brain.

BENEFITS OF STEM CELLS

Stem cells have the ability to differentiate intoa variety of tissues. This means that, through care-ful work, adult stem cells could be used to re-pair a damaged brain or heart, rebuild a knee,restore injured nervous system connections,treat diabetes, and much more. That is the po-tential power of stem cells. But only adult stemcells can be used to do this; for they are theonly type which predictably will grow into thedesired type of tissue.

Unlike embryonic stem cells, which are un-

manageable and do not produce the right kind ofcells, stem cells from adult bone marrow do nottrigger such problems, even after the cells differ-entiate.

“The cells seem to go only to damagedareas . . [turning] into heart muscle,blood vessels, and fibrous tissue.”—NewScientist, December 15, 2001.

One writer described it this way: It is as thoughthey had stumbled upon a packet of magic seeds.Depending on where they were planted, they cangrow carrots, broccoli, corn, or cabbage.

Theoretically, according to the type of adultstem cell that is used, they can produce any ofthe 210 different types of tissue in the humanbody; and they can divide and multiply for an in-definite period of time.

USES OF STEM CELL THERAPY

There are three proposed stem cell applica-tions:

1. Cell Therapy - Adult stem cells can beguided to differentiate into specific types of cells,so they can be used to treat disease characterizedby cell death (such as diabetes, multiple sclerosis,myocardial infarctions, or strokes).

2. Gene Therapy - The ability of adult stemcells to enter an organ and generate new cells makesthem extremely useful in providing gene therapyto replace genetically defective cells.

3. Organ Generation - Adult stem cells couldbecome the seeds of an unlimited source of lab-grown organs for transplantation.

STEM CELL THERAPIESUSUEABLE NOW

It is claimed that there is a great need of em-bryonic stem cell research, so physicians can be-gin treating various diseases and disorders withstem cells.

But—right now—adult stem cells can, andare, already being used to treat several differ-ent types of diseases.

As I write this, there are already 15,000adult stem cell therapies carried out in this coun-try each year. Bone marrow derived stem cellsare used in cancer and autoimmune treatment pro-


tocols, to replace or repair organs that are dam-aged by chemotherapy during cancer therapy.Adult stem cell therapy is being used to treat braintumors, retinoblastoma, ovarian cancer, sarcomas,multiple myeloma, leukemia, breast cancer, neu-roblastoma, renal cell carcinoma, juvenile rheu-matoid arthritis, and other diseases. Thus scien-tists already have broad experience in many as-pects of adult stem cell therapy.

Here are some examples of how adult stemcells are being used to treat disease:

1. Diabetes - Eleven out of 115 Type 1 diabe-tes patents are “completely off insulin” after re-ceiving adult pancreatic cell transplants (MedicalPost, June 19, 2001).

Diabetes - Researchers at Harvard MedicalSchool used animal adult stem cells to grow newislet cells to combat diabetes. Researcher DeniseFaustman said, “It was astonishing! We had re-versed the disease without the need for trans-plants.” Plans for human trials are underway(“Adult stem cells effect a cure,” Harvard Uni-versity Gazette, July 19, 2001).

2. Heart Disease - German heart specialistBodo Eckehard Strauer successfully treated a heartpatient, using stem cells from the man’s bone mar-row. Dr. Stauer said, “Even patients with the mostseriously damaged hearts can be treated with theirown stem cells instead of waiting and hoping on atransplant” (“Stem cell therapy repairs a heart,”London Daily Telegraph, August 25, 2001).

Heart Disease - “Four out of five seriouslysick Brazilian heart-failure patients no longerneeded a heart transplant after being treated withtheir own stem cells” (“Stem cells used to repairheart tissue,” MSNBC News, September 8, 2003).

3. Sickle-Cell Anemia - CBS’ 60 Minutes IIreported on 15-year-old Keone Penn, whose phy-sicians at the University of Pittsburgh say washealed of sickle-cell anemia with an injection ofstem cells from umbilical cord blood. Accordingthe report, “the stem cells changed his entire bloodsystem from type O to type B” and eliminated thesickle-cell problem (“Stem cells from umbilical

cord blood used to save a boy’s life,” CBS broad-cast transcript, November 28, 2001).

4. Acute Myeloid Leukemia - Sixteen-year-old Nathan Salley told a U.S. Congressional sub-committee how stem cells from umbilical cordblood saved his life (“Teenager testifies he’s ‘liv-ing proof of stem-cell option,” Denver Post, July22, 2001).

5. Multiple Sclerosis - Thirty-six-year-oldSusan Stross is one of more than 20 MS patientswhose conditions have remained steady or im-proved after receiving an adult stem cell trans-plant. The same results are reported with severalhundred patients worldwide (“Already savinglives, stem cell research may soon be in fullswing,” Seattle Times, August 20, 2001).

6. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma - Forty-year-old Mark Fulford was not able to receive a bonemarrow transplant; so doctors used stem cellsfrom umbilical cord blood (“Different kind ofstem cell already saving lives,” Denver RockyMountain News, August 18, 2001).

7. Parkinson’s Disease - “Jefferson research-ers have early evidence of bone marrow stem cellsable to become brain cells” (Thomas JeffersonUniversity news release, November 12, 2001).

8. Improved Stroke Recovery - “Cells fromthe blood of an umbilical cord help rats recoverfrom stroke faster, new study finds” (Universityof South Florida Health Sciences Center NewsRelease, November 8, 2001).

9. Blood Stem Cell Transplant - “Transplan-tation: Surgical team uses standard stem cell pro-cedure in unique way for kidney recipient” (BloodWeekly, March 7, 2002).

Adult stem cells are being used, in increas-ing amounts, to improve and save lives.

“Everyone here gets a sense of accom-plishment, recognizing that about 100lives are saved each year by the [umbili-cal cord blood] products from this bankalone,” said Director Michael Creer ofthe St. Louis Cord Blood Bank.”—Belleville, Missouri, News-Democrat,March 24, 2002.


FUTUREADULT STEM CELL RESEARCH

Researchers have strong hopes for greatsuccess, using non-embryonic stem cells. Newbreakthroughs keep developing:

“A stem cell has been found in adultsthat can turn into every single tissue inthe body. It might turn out to be the mostimportant cell ever discovered.”—NewScientist, January 23, 2002.

Researchers at New York University Schoolof Medicine announced:

“There is a cell in the bone marrowthat can serve as the stem cell for most,if not all, of the organs of the body . .This study provides the strongest evi-dence yet that the adult body harborsstem cells that are as flexible as embry-onic stem cells.”—Science Daily Maga-zine, May 4, 2001.

McGill University researchers, in Montreal,have discovered another excellent source ofuseable stem cells:

“Stem cells deep in the skin of humansthat can become fat, muscle or even braincells . . Scientists are driven by the hopeof bringing science closer to treatmentsfor spinal cord injuries, juvenile diabe-tes, heart disease and brain disorders,through treatments made from the pa-tients’ own cells.”—Los Angeles Times,August 19, 2001.

For additional information on this, obtain atranscript of the expert testimony given at theHearing on Advances in Adult and Non-Embry-onic Stem Cell Research, given to the U.S. Sen-ate Committee on Science, Technology, and Space,Thursday, June 12, 2003.

A PETITION SENT TO CONGRESS

Unfortunately, although adult stem cells arebeing used to treat some diseases, there are otherswhich could also be treated (including Alz-heimer’s)—but the research funds are not avail-able. Instead, the pro-abortionists are clameringfor funds to be spent on embryonic stem cell re-search, when it is well-known in the scientific com-munity that embryonic research is a blind alley

which will not produce the desired cures.“Research and treatments using

adult stem cells are 20 to 30 yearsahead of embryonic stem cell re-search.”—Dr. Tadeusz Pacholczyk,Massachusetts neuroscientist.

The Christian Medical Association has de-cided to urge Congress to fund the right kindof research:

“More than 2,000 physicians, mem-bers of the Christian Medical Associa-tion (CMA), have signed and sent a let-ter to the U.S. Congress requesting themto educate themselves on the benefits ofresearch using adult stem cells.

“According to CMA Executive Direc-tor, Dr. David Stevens, the letter clari-fied that the quickest and most eco-nomical path to real cures is throughadult stem cell research, and it urgedCongress to focus its funding on that lineof study.

“ ‘Many of them are unaware of theresearch that is out there, and what themedical journals are showing,’ he said.‘What they’re hearing is from the so-called scientific experts who are blindedby their desire for federal funding.’

“Stevens said his group’s membershipis made up of physicians taking care ofpatients with maladies such as Park-inson’s disease and diabetes—patientsthey can help if they can get the curespromised by adult stem cells.

“ ‘We cannot stand by and see thecountry go down the wrong researchpath—morally and scientifically—when patients are going to continueto suffer,’ Stevens said.

“Dr. David Prentice, a former scienceadviser to members of Congress whonow works for the Family ResearchCouncil, said adult stem cells—not em-bryonic stem cells—are the ones show-ing the real success.

“ ‘What we’re finding,’ he said, ‘is youcan take these adult stem cells, and theystimulate regeneration in the heart, in


the brain, in the liver, in virtually any tis-sue we need.’

“But embryonic research advocatesstand to make millions of dollars fromyears spent on fruitless research. Andthen there’s the abortion industry.‘Their fear,’ Prentice said, ‘is that, ifyou say you shouldn’t destroy embryos,it obviously puts their particular benton human life in question.’ ”—Newsrelease by the Christian Medical Asso-ciation, no date.

A WAY TO MAKE MONEY

Some scientists and research centers are urg-ing the release of federal funds for stem cell re-search. An investigative report, by Neil Munro inthe National Journal, found that the cause maybe “the pecuniary interests of the physicians andscientists.” Three scientists have been quoted 216times in the national press. In only 17 instanceswas it mentioned that they were shareholders,founders, or board members in private biotechcompanies that would benefit from federal fund-ing.

Johns Hopkins’ John Gearhart was co-discov-erer of embryonic stem cells while working forGeron Corporation, a leading biotech firm. Geronhas a profit sharing agreement with Hopkinsas does the University of Wisconsin, where JamesThomson, the other co-discover works. All thesescientists were special contributors to the NIHreport on stem cells delivered to President Bush.But this conflict of interest has been ignored bythe media.BIBLICAL AND ETHICAL IMPLICATIONS

The Scriptures describe a continuity of hu-man personhood from before birth (Ps 51:5, Isa44:2). Man is not to unjustly take human life

(Deuteronomy 5:17). Christ’s incarnation beganwith a miraculous fertilization (Luke 1:43, 26-38).Our Saviour was once a one-cell embryo.

In addition, there are many ethical impli-cations.

Adult human beings are the result of continu-ous growth that begins at fertilization. There is nonormal break in their development. The embryohas total capacity to develop full physical and brainactivity if allowed to do so. Regardless of whetheror not an embryo can feel pain, it is a person whichis harmed by being cut in pieces.

Personhood is not dependent on a mother’sability to feel her baby moving. Birth is just achange of location and degree of dependency. Ababy is more dependent on the efforts of anotherafter birth than it is before.

What about legal implications? At thepresent time, 38 states recognize that life beginsat conception and 25 states already regulate em-bryo and fetal research. Ten states ban harmfulembryonic research altogether. Louisiana desig-nates IVF [in vitro fertilization] derived embryosas judicial [legally recognized] persons. Maine,Michigan, and Massachusetts impose up to fiveyears of imprisonment for harmful research on liveembryos or fetuses. Five states restrict the sale ofembryos, five more restrict sale for research, andeight others prohibit their sale for any reason.

The good news is that there is an ethicalalternative to embryonic stem cell researchwhich, although ignored by the liberals and themedia, is wanted by medical researchers andphysicians. The alternative is adult stem cellresearch.

This book was entirely finished and ready to send to theprinters—and then we discovered that the printing house hadchanged its specs for the book, from 992 to 1,008 pages.

What should be added, to fill the extra 16 pages?Looking back through our now out-of-print 3-Vol. Evolu-

tion Disproved Series, I came upon something which everythoughtful student will appreciate having.

I wrote the following carefully researched study over adecade ago. It makes people think.

They say there are no real atheists, just some people ig-noring a great mountain of evidence in their consciences andin nature all about them, who try to brave their stubbornresistance all the way to the end.

But when that end comes, the bluffing is over.In this brief chapter, we are going to look at the end and

how different people meet it.Will you be ready to meet it?

In one of the great art galleries, there stands a largebronze bas-relief, called “The Sculptor, the Angel of Death.”It portrays a young ambitious sculptor, busy working ona block of marble. Already he has carved into it the life-likeface of a man; and he is anxious to complete this statue whichthe world will acclaim as his greatest.

But, with his chisel carefully placed and an uplifted malletready to strike, the angel of death has suddenly appeared, toucheshim on the shoulder, and bids him stop. With a look of surpriseand dismay, he realizes that that sculpture—and all his otherwork—will now end. For the young man is about to die.

Within this book, we have provided you with thousandsof details, pointing to the existence and workmanship of theCreator. Evolutionary theory falls dead before such a wealth of

information.But there are facts about the living of our lives which also

point to the existence of God, His guidance and intervention inthe affairs of men.

Scientists tell us they cannot measure data indicating re-lationships with the Creator. Yet there is a lot of it available,and it clearly points in one direction. For example, which groupof people are the most interested in preserving the life of theunborn? It is the Christians. Other groups, in general, are farless concerned about whether abortions are carried out. Whichgroup generally has happier lives? It is the Christians, and itmatters not whether theirs is a life of poverty or wealth. Whichgroup has the greatest peace of heart? It is the Christians. Whichgroup commits the fewest felonies and major crimes? It is theChristians.

Everyone knows that adultery, crime, or murder by a Chris-tian pastor is far more likely to be given space in the media thanif committed by an atheist. Why is this so? It is the rarity of theevent which makes it so newsworthy. As usual, it is not the dogbiting the man which is published, but the man biting the dog. Agenuine Christian does not do improper acts as often as theaverage person.

So the facts about Christianity can, indeed, be quanti-fied. They are quite obvious. It is the believers in, and wor-shipers of, the Creator God which consistently have contented,happier, more caring lives. Problems enter the lives of all, butit is the Creationists who are the most peaceful, the most obedi-ent to right principles, and the most stalwart in their defense.

For a few minutes, let us gather together some data onhow men face oncoming death. With an open mind, considerthe facts for yourself. Except for unusual divine interven-tion, we will all die. That includes you. Within a few years, youwill be dead. The way a man faces death is but a reflection of hisentire way of life and all his past experiences. A man living forhimself is terrorized by the approach of death; but a man whohas personally experienced the presence of God, and knowsHim not only as his Creator—but also his Friend,—realizesthat death is not an enemy to be feared.

We are not here discussing something imaginary.This issue consistently bears out the fact that it is the lead-

ing atheists, the most blatant haters of God, who are themost terrorized as death approaches.

In contrast, as we will see below, those who have loved andserved the God of heaven have an amazingly peaceful cer-

tainty that the future will be far better than their present life.Experience after experience can be collected and quantified.

The results of such research, revealed throughout this book,indeed confirm the facts of nature:

It is quite obvious that God exists. He created the earth,sea, and sky. He also made us. We can only be happy as welove Him and obey His laws. In doing so, we become en-nobled with better principles, live far happier lives, and areready when death nears.

Yet, although we rarely mention it to others, this is ex-actly what we want to know: how to face death.

A group of American soldiers were gathered, for the last timefor entertainment, in England. The next morning they were toship out. One man stood to thank their British hosts; and, then,as an afterthought, he said to them: “Tomorrow morning we willcross the channel to France. There we will go to the trenches,and very possibly, of course, to death. Can any of our friendshere tell us how to die?” There was silence in the room.

When it comes, death frequently comes suddenly and unex-pectedly. It is today that we must prepare for what will comeas a certainty in a not-too-distant tomorrow. The preparationcan indeed be made. The following pages may be among themost important you will ever read.

On a dark afternoon in September 1583, in a stormy seanear the Azores, the Golden Hind, commanded by Sir WalterRaleigh, sailed close to the Squirrel, a smaller vessel commandedby Sir Humphrey Gilbert. The captain of the Golden Hind criedout to Gilbert, who was sitting in the stern of his vessel with abook open in his hand, and urged him, for his safety, to comeaboard the larger vessel. This Gilbert refused to do, saying hewould not leave his companions in the Squirrel. Then Raleighheard him call out over the waves, “Heaven is as near by sea asby land.”

Conditions rapidly worsened; and, at midnight that night,those on the Golden Hind saw the lights on the smaller vesselsuddenly go out. And, in that moment, Gilbert and his ship wereswallowed up by the dark, raging sea.

Death can come suddenly for every one of us. But howmany are ready when death draws near? Here is how Chris-tians died:

On her deathbed, Queen Victoria told those around herthat she loved God and was His little child, so she was ready to

985

die. Then she called for the hymn to be sung:“Rock of Ages, cleft for me,“Let me hide myself in Thee.”For decades she had ruled the British Empire; but, when

death approached, all she had was God.And that is the consistent pattern with those who have made

peace with their Creator and love and serve Him.

Here is how Christians die, as revealed in their dyingwords. They recognized that they would come up in the res-urrection and be with Jesus forever!

Brownlow North (1840), a profligate nobleman who becamea preacher, uttered these final words: “ ‘The blood of Jesus ChristHis Son cleanseth us from all sin.’ That is the verse on which Iam now dying. One wants no more.”

Lord V.C. Roberts (1914), who died in France while tellingthose gathered by him of the importance of their studying theBible: “I ask you to put your trust in God. You will find, in this



Book, guidance when you are in health; comfort, when you arein sickness; and strength, when you are in adversity.”

Catherine Booth (1890), wife of the founder of the SalvationArmy: “The waters are rising, but so am I. I am not going under,but over. Do not be concerned about dying. Go on living well;the dying will be right.”

imaginable.”John Bacon (1799), eminent English sculptor, whose monu-

ment of Lord Chatham stands in Westminster Abbey: “What Iwas as an artist seemed to be of some importance while I lived;but what I really was as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ isthe only thing of importance to me now.”

Francis Ridley Havergal, songwriter. After requesting afriend to read to her Isaiah 42, she uttered these nine words,after verse 6, and died: “I the Lord have called thee in righteous-ness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee. Called-held-kept! I can go home on that!”

My heaven is to please God and glorifyHim, and give all to Him, and to be wholly devoted to His glory.”

John Pawson, minister: “I know I am dying, but my death-bed is a bed of roses. I have no thorns planted upon my dyingpillow. In Christ, heaven is already begun!”

George Whitefield (1770), English evangelist: “Lord Jesus,

Philipp Melanchthon (1560), after several passages of Scrip-ture were read to him by his son-in-law, he was asked if he wouldhave anything else: “Nothing else but heaven!”

James Preston: “Blessed by God! Though I change my place,I shall not change my company.”

Samuel Rutherford (1615): “Mine eyes shall see my Re-deemer. He has pardoned, loved, and washed me, and given mejoy unspeakable and full of glory. I feed on manna. Glory, glory,glory to my Creator and Redeemer forever!”

Sir David Brewster (1868), scientist and inventor of thekaleidoscope: “I will see Jesus; I shall see Him as He is! I havehad the light for many years. Oh how bright it is! I feel so safeand satisfied!”

Michael Faraday (1867), chemist, electrical engineer, andleading British scientist, as he neared death, replied to a scien-tist who asked him what he would do in heaven: “ ‘Eye hath notseen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man,the things that God hath prepared for them that love Him.’ Ishall be with Christ, and that is enough.” When a journalist in-terjected and questioned him as to his speculations about a lifeafter death, he said, “Speculations! I know nothing about specu-lations. I’m resting on certainties. ‘I know that my Redeemerliveth,’ and because He lives, I shall live also.”

David Brainerd (1747), a well-known missionary in theAmerican Colonies, in the hope of the resurrection: “I am goinginto eternity, and it is sweet to me to think of eternity; the end-lessness of it makes it sweet. But oh! What shall I say of thefuture of the wicked! The thought is too dreadful!”

Daniel Webster (1852), the well-known orator and legisla-tor, had William Cowper’s hymn read to him: “There is a foun-tain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel’s veins.” Then heread the last stanza: “Then in a nobler, sweeter song, I’ll singThy power to save. When this poor lisping, stam’ring tonguelies silent in the grave . .”

At this, Webster, one of the most powerful speakers in Ameri-can history, replied, “Amen! Amen! Amen!”

Richard Owen, the Puritan, lay on his deathbed, and hissecretary was writing a letter, in his name, to a friend: “I am stillin the land of the living,” he wrote, and read what he had writtento Owen.

“No, please do not write that,” Owen said. “I am yet in theland of the dying; but—later,—I will be in the land of the living!”

Henry Frances Lyte, a retired pastor of the Church of En-gland died on November 20,1847, in Nice, France. He had spenthis life working in the slums of London, helping people. Afterhis death, his family found a paper he had written just beforehis death. It is now a hymn sung around the world:

“Abide with me: fast falls the eventide.“The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide!

“When other helpers fail and comforts flee,“Help of the helpless, O abide with me.”Benjamin Franklin (1790) wrote the following epitaph for

his own tomb. It is there today:“The Body of Benjamin Franklin, Printer. Like the Cover of



an Old Book, Its Contents Torn Out and Stripped of Its Letter-ing and Gilding, Lies Here, Food for Worms. Yet the Work ItselfShall Not Be Lost; for It will, as He Believed, Appear Once Morein a New and More Beautiful Edition, Corrected and Amendedby the Author.” Franklin rejoiced in the coming resurrection!

Henry Alford, the hymn writer who died in 1861 had thisepitaph placed on his grave in Canterbury, England: “The inn ofa pilgrim journeying to Jerusalem.”

A 22-year-old Dutch patriot wrote the following letter to hisparents before he was executed by a Nazi firing squad, for thecrime of trying to escape with his three companions to England:

“In a little while at five o’clock it is going to happen, and thatis not so terrible . . On the contrary, it is beautiful to be in God’sstrength. God has told us that He will not forsake us if only wepray to Him for support. I feel so strongly my nearness to God;I am fully prepared to die . . I have confessed all my sins to Himand have become very quiet. Therefore do not mourn, but trustin God and pray for strength . . Give me a firm handshake.God’s will be done . . We are courageous. Be the same. They canonly take our bodies. Our souls are in God’s hands . . May Godbless you all. Have no hate. I die without hatred. God rules ev-erything.”

Pilgrim’s Progress is generally considered one of the great-est books every written by a follower of Christ. In it, the twopilgrims, Christian and Hopeful, finally received their summonsand came down to the river. But, when they saw how deep, wide,swift, and dark were its waters, they were stunned.

Then they were told, “You must go through or you cannotcome at the gate.” Then they asked if the waters were all of adepth, and the answer was given: “You shall find it deeper orshallower as you believe in the King of the place.”

Then they went into the water, and Christian began to sink,and said: “I sink in deep waters; the billows go over my head; allHis waves go over me.”

But Hopeful answered, “Be of good cheer, my brother: I feelthe bottom, and it is good.”

And with that Christian broke out with a loud voice, “Oh, Isee him again; and he tells me, “When thou passest through thewaters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall notoverflow thee.”

Then they both took courage, and the enemy was, after that,as still as a stone until they were gone over.

—They had passed through the grave to the glorious resur-rection day beyond.

991

Little Kenneth was very sick. He felt that he was not going toget well. Turning toward his mother, who sat by his bedside, heasked, “Mother, what is it like to die?”

Mother was filled with grief, and knew not how to answerhim. She replied, “Kenneth, I must go to the kitchen. I’ll be rightback.” Hurrying there, she prayed, “Lord, show me how to an-swer Kenneth’s question.” Immediately, she knew how to expressit.

Returning to Kenneth, Mother said, “Kenneth, you know howyou have often played hard and gotten very tired in the evening?Then you have come into my room and climbed upon my bedand gone to sleep. Later your father carried you in his arms andput you in your own bed. In the morning you have awakenedand found yourself in your own room, without knowing how yougot there.”

Kenneth said, “Yes, Mother, I know that.”“Well, Kenneth,” Mother continued, “death is something like

that for God’s children. Jesus spoke of death as sleep. God’schildren go to sleep when they die. Later, at the resurrection,they will arise and be with Christ forever. Heaven is a wonderfulplace, Kenneth!”

Then the boy smiled and said, “Mother, I won’t be afraid todie now. I’ll just go to sleep and, later, wake up and be withJesus forever. I know God will take care of me.”

Henry Van Dyke wrote this very accurate statement: “Re-member that what you possess in this world will be found atthe day of your death and belong to someone else; what youare will be yours forever.”

All that you own will someday be given to another, but yourcharacter—what you are—will determine your future destiny.

—————————————————————

But now the entire picture changes. We leave the death-beds of the Christians and visit the deathbeds of the athe-ists:

We have observed how men and women who have given them-selves to God—who earnestly love and obey Him—have died.They confidently declared at the portals of death, “Yea, though Iwalk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear noevil: for Thou art with me” (Psalm 23:4).

The Apostle Paul said, “To die is gain” (Philippians 1:21)and “O death, where is thy sting?” (1 Corinthians 15:55).



But to so many others death is a fearsome thing, ahorrible event.

Aristotle wrote: “Death is a dreadful thing, for it is the end!”John Donne, the English author, wrote: “Death is a bloody

conflict, and no victory at last; a tempestuous sea, and no har-bor at last; a slippery height, and no footing; a desperate fall,and no bottom!”

Rousseau, the infidel, cried, “No man dares to face deathwithout fear.”

Robert lngersoll, the infidel, when standing at the grave ofhis brother, said, “Life is a narrow vale between the cold andbarren peaks of two eternities. We strive, in vain, to look beyondthe height. We cry aloud, and the only answer is the echo of ourwailing cry. From the voiceless lips of the unreplying dead therecomes no word.”

After the death of Alexander the Great, one of his generals,Ptolemy Philadelphus, inherited Egypt and lived a selfish lifeamid wealth and luxury. As he grew old, he was haunted by thefear of death, and even sought, in the lore of Egyptian priests,the secret of eternal life. One day, seeing a beggar lying contentin the sun, Ptolemy said, “Alas, that I was not born one of these!”

We shall discover that the last words of the atheists arefar different than those who love and honor their Creator.

For example, when Phineas T. Barnum, the famous circusshowman of yesteryear died in his 82nd year, his last wordswere a question about the big show’s gate receipts at their latestMadison Square Garden performance. Then he was gone!

But, for most atheists, their concerns are far more dra-matic. Here are the dying words of atheists:

Voltaire, the most influential atheist of Europe in his day,cried out with his dying breath: “I am abandoned by God andman; I shall go to hell! I will give you half of what I am worth, ifyou will give me six month’s life.”

Honore Mlrabeau, a leading political organizer of the FrenchRevolution: “My sufferings are intolerable; I have in me a hun-dred years of life, but not a moment’s courage. Give me morelaudanum, that I may not think of eternity! O Christ, O JesusChrist!”

Mazarin, French cardinal and adviser to kings: “O my poorsoul! What will become of thee? Wither wilt thou go?”

Severus, Roman emperor who caused the death of thou-sands of Christians: “I have been everything, and everything is

993

nothing!”Thomas Hobbes, the political philosopher and sceptic who

corrupted some of England’s great men: “If I had the whole world,I would give anything to live one day. I shall be glad to find a holeto creep out of the world at. I am about to take a fearful leap inthe dark!”

Caesar Borgia: “I have provided, in the course of my life,for everything except death; and now, alas! I am to die, althoughentirely unprepared!”

Sir Thomas Scoff, chancellor of England: “Until this mo-ment, I thought there was neither God nor hell; now I know andfeel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by thejust judgment of the Almighty!”

Edward Gibbon, author of Decline and Fall of the RomanEmpire: “All is dark and doubtful!”

Sir Francis Newport, the head of an English infidel club tothose gathered around his deathbed: “You need not tell me thereis no God, for I know there is one, and that I am in His presence!You need not tell me there is no hell awaiting me at the resurrec-tion of the damned! I know it is coming. Wretches, cease youridle talk about there being hope for me! I know I am lost for-ever.”

M.F. Rich: “Terrible horrors hang over my soul! I have givenmy immortality for gold; and its weight sinks me into a hope-less, helpless future. Hell!”

Thomas Paine, the leading atheistic writer in the Americancolonies: “I would give worlds if I had them, that The Age ofReason had never been published. O Lord, help me! Christ, helpme! . . No, don’t leave; stay with me! Send even a child to staywith me; for I am here alone, on the edge of a future horror. Ifever the Devil had an agent, I have been that one.”

Napoleon Bonaparte, the French emperor who broughtdeath to millions, to satisfy his selfish plans: “I die before mytime, and my body will be given back to the earth. Such is thefate of him who has been called the great Napoleon. What anabyss between my deep misery and the eternal kingdom ofChrist!”

Aldamont, the infidel: “My principles have poisoned myfriend; my extravagance has beggared my boy; my unkindnesshas murdered my wife. And is there another hell yet ahead?”

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Abraham Lincoln:“Useless! Useless! The terrors before me!”

Thomas CarlyIe: “I am as good as without hope, a sad oldman gazing into the final chasm.”

David Strauss, leading representative of German rational-



ism, after spending a lifetime erasing belief in God from theminds of others: “My philosophy leaves me utterly forlorn! I feellike one caught in the merciless jaws of an automatic machine,not knowing at what time one of its great hammers may crushme!”

Tallyrand, one of the most cunning French political leadersof the Napoleonic era. On a paper found at his death were thesewords: “Behold eighty-three passed away! What cares! What ag-itation! What anxieties! What ill will! What sad complications!And all without other results except great fatigue of mind andbody, a profound sentiment of discouragement with regard tothe future and disgust with regard to the past!”

Mohatma Gandhi, some 15 years before his death, wrote:“I must tell you in all humility that Hinduism, as I know it, en-tirely satisfies my soul, fills my whole being, and I find a solacein the Bhagavad and Upanishads.”

Just before his death, Gandhi wrote: “My days are num-bered. I am not likely to live very long—perhaps a year or a littlemore. For the first time in fifty years I find myself in the sloughof despond. All about me is darkness; I am praying for light.”

Svetlana Stalin was the daughter of Josef Stalin. In an in-terview with Newsweek, she told of her father’s death: “My fa-ther died a difficult and terrible death . . God grants an easydeath only to the just . . At what seemed the very last moment hesuddenly opened his eyes and cast a glance over everyone in theroom. It was a terrible glance, insane or perhaps angry . . Hisleft hand was raised, as though he were pointing to somethingabove and bringing down a curse on us all. The gesture was fullof menace . . The next moment he was dead.”

Charles IX was the French king who, urged on by his mother,gave the order for the massacre of the Huguenots, in which 15,000souls were slaughtered in Paris alone and 100,000 in other sec-tions of France, for no other reason than that they loved Christ.The guilty king suffered miserably for years after that event. Hefinally died, bathed in blood bursting from his veins. To his phy-sicians he said in his last hours: “Asleep or awake, I see themangled forms of the Huguenots passing before me. They dropwith blood. They point at their open wounds. Oh! that I hadspared at least the little infants at the breast! What blood! I knownot where I am. How will all this end? What shall I do? I am lostforever! I know it. Oh, I have done wrong.”

William E. Henley, an atheist, wrote a famous poem; thelast two lines of which have often been quoted:

995

“Out of the night that covers me,“Black as the pit from pole to pole,“I thank whatever gods may be.“Beyond this place of wrath and tears“Looms but the horror of the shade;“And yet the menace of the years“Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.“It matters not how strait the gate,“How charged with punishment the scroll,“I am the master of my fate;“I am the captain of my soul.”

Men who have been bold in their defiance of God have laudedHenley’s poem, but most of them were not aware that WilliamHenley later committed suicide.

Few men in Europe have tried to eradicate the Bible and theknowledge of God from the minds of the people as did the Frenchinfidel, Voltaire. The Christian physician who attended Voltaire,during his last illness, later wrote about the experience:

“When I compare the death of a righteous man, which is likethe close of a beautiful day, with that of Voltaire, I see the differ-ence between bright, serene weather and a black thunderstorm.It was my lot that this man should die under my hands. Oftendid I tell him the truth. ‘Yes, my friend,’ he would often say tome, ‘you are the only one who has given me good advice. Had Ibut followed it, I should not be in the horrible condition in whichI now am. I have swallowed nothing but smoke. I have intoxi-cated myself with the incense that turned my head. You can donothing for me. Send me an insane doctor! Have compassion onme—I am mad!’

“I cannot think of it without shuddering. As soon as he sawthat all the means he had employed to increase his strength hadjust the opposite effect, death was constantly before his eyes.From this moment, madness took possession of his soul. Heexpired under the torments of the furies.”

“What did you do to our daughter?” asked a Moslem woman,whose child had died at 16 years of age. “We did nothing,” an-swered the missionary. “Oh, yes, you did,” persisted the mother.“She died smiling. Our people do not die like that.” The girl hadfound Christ, and a few months before had first believed onHim. Fear of death had gone. Hope and joy had taken its place.

SUBJECTINDEX

The best way to find what you are looking for in this book

———————Whatever you are looking for, if it is worth find-

ing, it is probably listed here. This index was care-fully prepared by the author in order to provide youwith the best possible help in research work.

For example, if you look under “Darwin,Charles,” you will not find all the dozens of placesin the book where his name is mentioned,—but onlythose pages where something special about him is tobe found. It may be biographical data, or it may be

Science vs. Evolution

one of his famous quotations which cast doubt on hisown theories.

When you turn to a page number listed in thisIndex, nearby pages will contain additional informa-tion.

When searching for data on a research topic ofyour choice, look up key words associated with it inthis index. By so doing, you will nicely expand theamount of material you can work with. Be sure andinclude quotations and citations (references withoutquotations) in your research paper. That will makeyour completed paper more scholarly.

Excellent, brief studies can be produced fromsimple topics. For example, look up “eyes,” and alsoturn to our website appendix section on eyes (whichone the references will direct you to). Other exampleswould be “circular reasoning,” “Scopes trial,” “dino-saurs,” “Haeckel,” “potassium-argon dating,” “sur-vival of the fittest,” etc.

You will also find a wealth of additional infor-mation and quotations on our website,

DARWINíS FEARS

Darwin once confided in a friend thatwhen he thought about the human eye,it made him feel sick. He feared histheory was on very shaky ground.

“If it could be demonstrated that anycomplex organ existed which could notpossibly have been formed by numer-ous, successive, slight modifications,my theory would absolutely breakdown.”—Charles Darwin, The Originof the Species, 6th ed., London: John

Murray, 1859, p. 182.“To suppose that the eye with all its

inimitable contrivances for adjusting thefocus to different distances, for admit-ting different amounts of light, and forthe correction of spherical and chroma-tic aberration, could have been formedby natural selection, seems, I freely con-fess, absurd in the highest degree.”—*Charles Darwin, The Origin of Spe-cies (1909 Harvard Classics edition),p. 190.

Permission is hereby givento anyone to translate part or all of this book

Our paperback, Evolution Handbook, replaced our earlier Evo-lution Cruncher. Several corrections were made. And chapters25, 27, and 30 (in this present book) were added at the back.The new title emphasizes the fact that it is an outstanding hand-book on what is wrong with every basic aspect of evolutionarytheory!

This present, larger book, Science vs. Evolution, includes ev-erything in the Handbook, plus more material. Science vs. Evo-lution is a large-print hardback, with wider margins and betterquality paper. Chapters 20 (Tectonics and Paleomagnetism) and21 (Archaeological Dating) are much more complete. Seven newchapters (chapters 25 through 31) were not in the EvolutionCruncher. This book is excellent as a textbook or collateral read-ing in classrooms, homeschools, personal study, and churchgroups. Lastly, this book has over 110 illustrations; whereas pre-vious editions only had 43 pages of them.

Using scientific evidence alone, this book totally undercuts evolutionary theory andpoints the reader to the Creator who made everything. By sharing information in thisbook with others, you have the privilege of defending Him.

This book provides the clearest evidence that God exists. Hebrews 11:6 tells us,“He that cometh to God must believe that He is.” The original Greek of that passagemeans this: “In order to come to God, a person must first believe that He exists.” TheEvolution Handbook helps people make that important discovery.

There are only two theories of origins: Either God made the universe and everythingin it, or everything made itself. There is no third possibility. Evolution, pantheism, andGaia worship all teach the same thing: Everything made itself. The book you now havein hand disproves that notion.

It is a great privilege and an awesome responsibility to defend the Maker of theUniverse. He needs your help at this hour in history, when so many are trying to denyHis existence. Share what you have learned with others! Encourage them to obtain acopy of this book for themselves.

The need for these facts in our world today is incredible. Evolutionary theory isbeing forced on students in many schools and colleges. It is taught as true in magazinesand books, on radio and television.
