• Natural selection (yes, it happens but it is not the same as evolution)
• Mutations (yes, they happen, but they can’t change microbes into microbiologists)
• Speciation (yes, it happens, but it is limited to variation within the created kind)
• Genetics (‘mitochondrial Eve’, ape vs human DNA, gene duplication, genetic engineering, cloning, longevity of patriarchs)
• Information theory (including DNA) (information defined, claimed new information)
• Probabilities (could life arise by chance? What about computer simulations of evolution?)
• Quantum Mechanics and Thermodynamics (how the laws of thermodynamics contradict naturalism)
• Vestigial organs (including ‘junk’ DNA)
• Homology and Embryology (Haeckel’s fraudulent concept, plus similarities due to common design)
• Charles Darwin (his religious views, contribution to human suffering, natural selection vs evolution)

Creation: relevance to Christianity, society and science

• Creation: Why It matters
• Death and suffering (Why? Origin of bad things such as poisons, carnivory, Satan)

• Flood (global? fish survival? Black Sea flood? flood legends).
• Noah’s Ark (size, construction, stability, feasibility, care for animals, diseases, biogeography)
• Geology (Flood evidences, coal formation, limestone caves, rapid rocks, age of fossils?)

History

• Archaeology (archaeology and the Bible, from the Flood to New Testament times)
• History (including biblical chronology, genealogies, origin of deep time beliefs)
• Linguistics (languages point to the Tower of Babel, animals talking?)

Paleontology

• Fossils (rapid formation, missing links, living fossils, dino-birds?, whale origins, tetrapods)
• Anthropology (human ancestry, alleged ape-men)
