“The riddles of God are more satisfying than the solutions of man”.  – G. K. Chesterton

The first question we are confronted with as we examine the purpose of life is ‘Where did we come from?’ For those of us in university, the dogma of the day is Evolution.  Pick up any major text on cell or molecular biology that is used in a biology undergraduate major or even a survey course and you quickly discover science and most scientists insist in the evolution of the cell.  As an example, I have on my home bookcase a seminal text entitled Molecular Biology of the Cell. The lead author is Bruce Alberts, a distinguished scientist and president of the National Academy of Sciences. In the list of other major contributors of information contained in the text, is James D. Watson who along with Francis Crick, was awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology for the discovery of the helical structure of DNA – the nucleic acid that carries genetic information for all living organisms. The first chapter in this text is titled, The Evolution of the Cell, so we know what to expect. In today’s biology classroom- high school or university, the prevailing view of how man arrived on earth is he evolved. Throw any other theory into the university classroom, Intelligent Design, Creation Science, Progressive Creation, even Theistic Evolution and you have a fight on your hands.

Scripture (Romans 1:20) informs us that God has revealed creation of the world as it is clearly seen, thus providing man with no excuse of His existence and His worthiness of all glory and praise. Evolution, Darwinism or any mix thereof insists that we evolved by chance without purpose. There are now increasing voices from notable scientists that take issue with this position. Some are proponents of Intelligent Design, others insist that God directed the origin of man through evolution (Theistic Evolution), still others maintain the Biblical account of men’s creation. In this worldview sphere of Science and Technology what are the arguments and where might the evidence lead us?
