Are Dinosaur Proteins Immortal?

March 18 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Palmcroft Baptist Church – Phoenix, 15825 North 35th Avenue
Phoenix, AZ 85053

Fragments of several proteins have been extracted from different dinosaur fossils. Evolutionists have proposed various mechanisms to explain how these proteins could survive for millions of years in a buried fossil. However, protein degradation studies contradict the claims that certain conditions could preserve proteins for millions of years. Instead, these proteins are evidence that the dinosaur fossils are only a few thousand years of age.

SPEAKER: Kevin Anderson, Ph.D. Microbiology

 

A Creationist Perspective of Genetics

March 19 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
First Baptist Church of Tempe, 4525 South McClintock Drive
Tempe, AZ 85282

The basic teachings of contemporary evolution were developed long before anything was understood about genetics. Thus, early investigators, such as Darwin, understood little of genetics and inheritance, but contemporary researchers do not have this excuse. As our understanding of genetics increases, the validity of evolution diminishes. What is more, recent discoveries about the nature and function of the human genome strongly contradict several popular evolutionary claims and strongly support a creation model.

SPEAKER: Kevin Anderson, Ph.D. Microbiology

 

Tucson Welcomes Back Terry Mondy

Terry Mondy, MS Biology Purdue University, BS Biology Education U of IL. Mr. Mondy retired after 33 years as a science teacher, was voted one of Illinois’ 10 best science teachers, received Outstanding Contributions to Education Award, honored by the National Ass’n of Biology Teachers as the Outstanding Biology Teacher in IL, yet he was attacked by the ACLU and others for his position on Creation-Evolution issues in public schools. He has published over 25 articles on Creation vs. Evolution, authored two biology-life science books, discovered a dinosaur at the Paluxy River, TX, was in a research project at Mount St. Helens, and now speaks nationwide on Creation Science topics

 

What do evolutionist teachers really teach?

“A Clash of Two Worldviews: Creation vs Evolution”

March 21 @7:00pm-8:30pm
The Journey – First Evangelical Free Church
4700 N Swan Rd, Tucson (E. side of Swan, between River & Sunrise)

How does a priest of evolutionism biology teacher become a creation scientist?
What do proselytizers of evolution believe that holds them in their faith in evolutionism?
How do we communicate with an evolutionist about creation from a scientific perspective?
See how and why new discoveries are confounding so many evolutionists and scientists around the world.

Speaker: Terry Mondy

 

Physical Geology of Planet Earth Negates Evolution’s Deep Time

March 24 @ 4:30 pm – 5:45 pm
Liberty Baptist Church, 3100 N Williamson Valley Rd
Prescott, AZ 86305

Multitudes have been assured for 200 years that the sedimentary rock layers covering the continents required tens of millions of years for each distinct layer to be deposited. Get ready for a mental paradigm shift at this presentation. If the present is, indeed the key to the past, then the physical evidence is completely out of sync with this evolutionary mantra. It will become obvious that the current environments of deposition found all over the Earth today have “Zero” correspondence to the uniform lithology of these massive intercontinental geologic formations. The best fit for a reasonable explanation for these massive worldwide layers, as typically observe in the Grand Canyon, is the Biblical account of a worldwide catastrophe.

SPEAKER: Sal Giardina, B.S. Mechanical Engineering, M.S. Geology BIO: Sal Giardina is an ordained Christian minister, holds a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, an M.S. in Geology, is an Air Transport Pilot, a Ground School aircraft systems instructor for professional pilots, a Boeing Aircraft Flight Instructor, and author of “In The Beginning… God or Dirt?”

 

The 3rd Dirty Little Secret of Evolution

March 26 @ 7:00 pm
Payson Public Library, 328 N Mc Lane Road
Payson, AZ 85541

More than 150 years ago Darwin first suggested that life might have spontaneously arisen in “some warm little pond”. Almost every week evolutionists claim that Mars or some other distant plant is likely to have evolved life. Yet after all this time, evolutionists still can provide no details about the first living cell on earth – how it originated from non-living chemicals by ordinary processes, what it was made of, and if and how it stored genetic information. Dr. Williams will discuss the incredible complexity of even the simplest known living cells, as well as the numerous complications and barriers remaining to be addressed before evolutionists can claim to have even a remotely plausible explanation of how life evolved by unguided material processes.

SPEAKER: Chris Williams

 

It Doesn’t Take a Rocket Scientist to Know There’s an Infinitely Intelligent Designer

March 28 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Havasu Christian Alliance Church, 510 N. Acoma
Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403

Nature (Creation) is filled with countless design examples of integrated and irreducible complexity which showcase the obvious and logical deduction that there must be a Creator. Evolutionary explanations for the development of these designs (apart from an intelligent information source, or designer) are completely devoid of a rational logical scientific basis.

SPEAKER: Joe Sebeny BIO: Joe Sebney is an aerospace engineer Tucson; AZ. He holds two Bachelor of Science degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) (Physics and Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering);and a Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of New Hampshire. Joe has undertaken creation science ministry to rebuild Christianity’s Creation Science foundations and combat the evolutionary foundations of secular humanism. Joe is also one of the key founders of the Pima Chapter of the Arizona Origin Science Association (AzOSA)

Consciousness: Accidental, Automatic, or Designed?

April 15 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Palmcroft Baptist Church – Phoenix, 15825 North 35th Avenue
Phoenix, AZ 85053

Kenneth R. Miller’s 2018 book, The Human Instinct, declares that human consciousness resulted from evolutionary brain growth. Miller and other authors say consciousness emerges naturally from the billions of interconnections of brain cells. The evolutionists’ claims boast rhetoric but not scientific reality.

SPEAKER: Richard Stevens, J.D.

 

The Three Laws of Robotics Support the Moral Law Argument for God

April 16 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
First Baptist Church of Tempe, 4525 South McClintock Drive
Tempe, AZ 85282

An often-used argument for God’s existence is the “moral law argument.” Insights from software technology, including Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics, strengthen that argument in the 21st Century world.

SPEAKER: Richard Stevens, J.D.

 

Consciousness: Accidental, Automatic, or Designed

April 23 @ 7:00 pm
Payson Public Library, 328 N Mc Lane Road
Payson, AZ 85541

Evolutionists claim that human consciousness resulted from evolutionary brain growth. Kenneth Miller and other authors say consciousness emerges naturally from the billions of interconnections of brain cells. The evolutionists’ claims boast rhetoric but not scientific reality. In this presentation Richard Stevens will give powerful evidence that the most logical and sensible understanding of the human conscious is from a Biblical perspective and how an evolutionary view does not.

SPEAKER: Richard Stevens
