Rise of atheism
Special Sunday afternoon seminar
Melbourne 14 March, the same weekend as Melbourne hosts Australia’s largest ever atheist event, the 2010 Global Atheist Convention, The Rise of Atheism featuring Richard Dawkins and other atheist ‘stars’.
You may well wonder why some of the world’s leading atheists would reject an opportunity to demolish in public the arguments put up by scientists from one of the world’s leading creation groups. (For details of the challenge, and the atheist response, see creation.com/global-atheists.)
| • |
Find out the arguments they didn’t want to face up to. |
| • |
Meet Dr Jonathan Sarfati, author of the world’s bestselling creation book (Refuting Evolution) and of the soon-to-be-released book The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Refuting Dawkins on evolution (a response to Richard Dawkins’ The Greatest Show on Earth: the evidence for evolution) |
When? Sunday 14 March 14 2010, 2.00 pm to 7.00 pm (bonus early bird Darwin documentary 1 pm)
Where? Life Ministry Centre (Old Melbourne Rd, Chirnside Park)

2.00–3.00 pm
Session 1 |
Dr Don Batten
Evolution: the key to unbelief
Atheists’ writings show it’s vital for the church not to be bluffed into retreat on Genesis. Today’s discoveries on genetics and DNA reveal why they won’t debate informed creationists.

3.00–3.20 pm |
Break |
3.20–4.25 pm
Session 2 |
Dr Carl Wieland
Surrounded by evidence
Countering unbelief through the rocks and fossils.

4.25–4.45 pm |
Break |
4.45–5.30 pm
Session 3 |
Dr Jonathan Sarfati
Evolution: no first cell, and not enough time
Belief in a cell that made itself underpins evolution/atheism, but it’s blind faith. And the ‘millions of years’ evaporate under scientific scrutiny, too.

Break
