The Great Evolution Mystery
with Mr. Walter Sivertsen
Some scientific observations in biology, geology, astronomy and other disciplines are not explainable in the evolutionary worldview. They are considered mysteries to evolutionists but usually not to creationists. We will examine multiple examples in biology.
(This event is a replay of the February presentation, when winter weather kept all but a dozen people away from the Lindenhurst meeting. The weather and attendance were better in Carol Stream the next night, so we're only replaying it for the people in MCF North. Maybe this time we can even get a video!)

February 4-5, 2019
Topic: To Be Announced
with Dr. Robert Carter
Dr. Carter is a marine biologist and geneticist. His DVD "Mitochondrial Eve and the Three Daughters of Noah" reflects the historical reality of one original human couple, followed some time later by three mothers of the current human race! This is just what the histories in Genesis predict: the creation of Adam and Eve, followed by a reduction of the human race to only three mothers -- who survived the Genesis Flood! He has also studied how DNA is degenerating: at known rates of DNA mutation, no living thing could have ancestry dating back hundreds of millions of years!
This presentation will likely be on the level of high school and up.
Anytime! Take an MCF printable guide to the Chicago Field Museum's Evolving Planet Exhibit
Take your family or group to the Field for the "Evolving Planet" exhibit! You can go anytime by yourselves, or go alone and have a follow-up meeting with an MCF speaker, to debrief your group. Click the link for more info, including 2 downloadable booklets to help you think about the exhibits from a scientific/creationist perspective. Answers in Genesis also has a good article on the Evolving Planet exhibit. We have 2 download guides that you can take with you:
1: Critical Thinking Guide. Trifold brochure in high resolution: 2MB, so it prints nicely, but downloads slowly, OR try the 247KB version, which downloads faster but doesn't print as nicely.
2. Evolution: Fact or Fiction by Jim Orme. 34 pages 8-1/2" x 11": 1.4MB
