Book Review: Evolution Exposed by Roger Patterson
By Rob Hood (05/31/07)
Every so often a news publication refuting evolution grabs my attention. With all of the fuss over two new creation museums, one in Kentucky, and one in Canada, exposing the myths and vital flaws in the theory of evolution has been a prime learning objective for me lately.
One of the best books I have read so far on the subject of creation science exposing the myths of evolution tells all by its very name: Evolution Exposed by Roger Patterson. Personally, I am a financial supporter of Answers in Genesis (AIG) which is a prominent global Creation ministry who opened the 60,000 square foot $27 million dollar museum in Kentucky on May 28, 2007. I first learned of this wonderfully detailed book through AIG and decided to purchase it and have had no regrets. AIG actually offers a boxed set of 30 of these books for the sole purpose of distribution among students who have been taught the falsehoods of evolution in high school or college or are about to enter such a course. This would also make a great book for parents to buy for a child about to enter the ninth grade where evolution is taught in Biology (in some schools.
The fact of the matter is that evolution has no real scientific evidence, is not testable in a lab environment, cannot be studied through today's nature, and has a growing list of scientists who are denying evolution and are accepting Intelligent Design which is not the same as Biblical creationism as some seem to believe.
I personally recommend parents to buy four of these books each : one for themselves, one for their children, one for their church library, and one for a friend. I also recommend donating one of these books to any local public library as well as the local school library.
The book includes great references, charts, graphs, and much more vital information that I have never really heard of through other similar books. The book itself is semi-technical which means that a 9th grade Biology student should have not have too many problems comprehending the information even though I believe may have been written for a higher level of education. Nevertheless, I recommend any parent who calls themselves a born again Christian to take a serious look at what their children are being indoctrinated with in the public school system and buy this book to expose the myths of an unproven and sorely outdated idea called evolution. I also encourage church officials to take a look at this book as well as other Answers in Genesis materials as possible learning materials for church group studies and Sunday School studies. The subject in itself makes for great conversation and debate.
