Wow! Just went to a garage sale where the patriarch had died and the kids were selling the estate items. I had never seen so many books in one place espousing why science was wrong and the Bible was right. They were mostly from the 50s and 60s with a few newer ones. There were young Earth books, evolution books, archeology supports the Bible books, and several just plain science is wrong books.
I have a couple old 'why evolution is wrong' books but I had no idea how prolific writers have been on these subjects in the past.
Biggest argument in the opening pages of the books I perused was, "scientists keeps changing their minds therefore they can't be right". And here we are 50 years later and we still have a large public that doesn't get it when it comes to interpreting new scientific data in light of old conclusions.
I bought a couple books on interpreting the coming apocalypse.

I reccomend doing this every couple of years anyway. Just for the hell of it.

I found a copy of "Creation-Evolution The Controversy" by Wysong (Inquirey Press) in an used-book store.
Since I bought many other books, I got a discount large enough to cover that book, and then some. So you could say I was paied to take the book... |
