Working on a concept developed earlier by James Hutton Lyell proposedthat the geologic ayers simply resulted from natura processes visibletodaygradual erosion and sedimetation In other words sedmentary
rock had been fomed just as rain eodes a mountain and a rve leavesdeposits n a deltadrip by drip gai by gran Lyell sued his vews in
hs book Princples of Geology subttled Being n Attempt to Explin the
Former Chnges of the Erth s Sue by Reference to Cuses Now in
Operion.
Lyels geoogy became known as uifotarianism present processeshave aways been occurring more or less unformly and account for nearlyeverything in the past or example shalowwater lime muds are now being
deposited in tropical oceans at a rate of one foot per thousand years so it sassumed that limestone in paces like te Grand Canyon also formed qite
slowly requiring eonsMany natural laws have been fomuated by observng curent processes
But geology unlike chemstry and pysics deals with pat events that thescentist cannot repoduce Geologic activity is not a constant like the speedof light t can occur sowly but also pidly, as during a flood earthquke
or volcano. Lyell however minmzed the impact of catastrophic events
ortuitously for evoluton the rst voume of Lyells book was pubishedin 1 830 When Chares Darwn depated on hs famous cruise aboard theBegle in 1 83 1 , he took a copy Darwn later sad fee as f my bookscame half out of Sir Charles Lyell s ban volution could never work of
course within the Biblcal time frame But here Lyel was saying the fossil-beang rock layers had formed over milons of years This made Darwns
hypothesis feasbe
After retuing to ngland Darwin became close friends wth Lyel Hewrote I saw more of Lyell than of any other man both before and afte mymarriage The geologist encouaged Dawn to pubsh The Origin of
Specie and later activey promoted it As Lyells uniformitarianism and
Darwins evouton seemed mutually corroborative both theoes grew instature until they became the standrds for geology and biology respec-tivey Neither man openly chalenged the Bible thus avoding the stigma ofadmitting atheism but their works et eect was to nvalidate the Scp-
tures. Darwin commented in 1 873 :

The pubic generaly believes that e Earth's ayers look much like theexbook geologc column, with srata eaty sacked upon each oher. Thss not the case As geologst Steven A Austn noes

Another problem: in hundreds o lcatons, geologic srata exist in a di-erent order than lsted in he geologi column Siene News has note:

peoples who spread to distant pars of he Earh afte the Flood wod not
have known of these matters bt wod certainly remember the Food itsef.
hrogh centries of mostly oral traditon the Flood stoy was altered and
embelished acconting for the varos discrepances In general the frthera cltre s from Ararat where he ark cme to rest the more the stories vay
from the Biblical version8
Anthopoogists today say civilizaon began in he Midde Eastjst
whee one wold epect if the ark settld here. he oldest historica doc
mens are fond in the Middle East
I know tha a host of objections eis egarding Noahs ark ets consider
the maor ones.
Come on, gimme a break! There's iions of species out there. You
seriously expect anyone to beieve they a in the ark?
As we noted in Chapter Five "specis s a loose term. Varieties sch as
Darwins nches are oen mstaken fr species n 9 abot a hndred
fnches all aike were tansported from the Pacic sland of aysan to a dis
tant isoaed clster of for islands. Wen eamined twenty years later he
brds were fond to look diffeent fro the original grop and also variedbetween isands especially in bi l shap. his dd not reire the eons evo
ltionists atribte o the development f arwins finches And obvosly it
was not de to mtations whch are inntesmaly rare events Rather the
change came from the nches inheren geneic cpci to vary and adapt.
his doesnt mean of corse that birds cold into cats or other ani
mas which wold eceed ther geneti imits)
The sweet pea has been bred from a ingle type nto hndreds of variees
since the year 700. By the same tokn t wold not have been necessaryfor Noah to have had a dalmatan beale terrier blldog and coe Even
evoltionists beieve he hndreds of og breeds oiginated from very few
common ancestors The primodial dogs ndobtedly had sbstantial capc
ity for genetc variation. Bt as some dogs became geographcally isolaed
or aricially bred genetic nformation was lost and they became distin
gished types. hese same phenomena wold be te of other animals
So Noah didnt need "milions of secies on the arkony the progen
itors of the innmerable varieties sen today. Frthermore the ark as
giganticaccording to the Bible 300 cbits long abot 50 feet) 50 cts
wide and 30 cbits deep Is estimatd cargo capacity was eal to 522mode bo cars I more han enogh to carry all the animals Ony a few
creatres sch as elephants are ite arge and even these cold have been
jveniles.

a decsion to come o GodFor those unfamiiar wi te Biblical backgound, we will encapsulate it
As we have stated, God created the world in a perfect state, and man with
free wil Man chose to disobey and ebel, separaing himself from God, andoriginaing evil, suering and death
But od kept reaching ou The Old Testament expains at he chose theJews as his people, to set an example for the world Trough Moses, he gave
hem the Ten Commandments and oter rules to ive by He reuired ha
they sarifice he bes of their livestock and grains as atonement for sins He
gave them srael to live in, and greatly blessed them However, he alsowarned the Jews that if they dsobeyed him and forsook his laws, they would
be conuered and scatered throughout the Earh That is exactly whahappened
But God old the Jews he would never completely orsake them While
they survived, and srael was reestablised in 98 he peoples they com
peted wih n the ancient Middle Easthe Philistines, Babyonians, Assyrians, Hities, Phoenicians, etcal disappeared as cutures Cleary, he
sraelites possessed somethng superior
Meanwhile, no one was perfecly obedient to God, keeping the com
mandmens and being truly good. Peple were too infected with evil; they
contined to sin and suffe. Mankind needed a savior
n Beau and he Bea a prince was placed under an evil spel (in the
Disney version, as punishment for an arrogan and cruel act) He became a
hdeous beas, and the curse could only be broken by a maden who ovedhm despie is ugliness When this finally happened, he was saved, and

With that the curse as broken an deah overcome Christ demonstratedthis y his Resurrection hree day after he crucifixion he rose aainaearn to hundreds of eole Tht is the Ne Testament's centra mes
