An Introduction to the Creation/Evolution Confusion H H Osborn

cec

The creation/evolution issue is a burning one. Secular humanist evolutionists are aggressively asserting their views and demanding the rejection of all others in all institutions of eduction.

The average Christian is at a disadvantage in facing this attack on the freedom of expression because the seclarist's arguments are not understood and most Christians appear to be unaware of the issues.

Two areas of potential confusion are faced: The creationist's response to: (a) the clear claims of secular, atheistic evolutionists; (b) the muddled claims of Christian evolutionists.

Doctor Osborn is a retired lecturer in mathematics and mathematics education and a convinced creationist. His aim is so to clarify the creation/evolution dialogue that, although both sides will not agree, they will understand each other and so reduce, if not eliminate, confusion.

The Hidden Key to the God-scenario H H Osborn

Since the first century of the Christian era, the idea of God 'hiding His face' from His people Israel, expressed in the Latin term Deus absconditus, has occupied the minds of Christian thinkers. Many theologians have recognized that God 'hid Himself', that is,withdrew the evidence of his presence from His people in order to bring them back to Him inrepentance.

When Paul addressed the Greek debaters of the Areopagus, he argued that God had created the universe and everyone who lived on the earth. Furthermore, He had placed every person in a geogrphical and historical setting that they might 'seek for' Him and 'feel after' Him. Until then, the past had been, for the Gentiles, the 'timers of ignorance.

This 'seekiing for' and 'feeling after' God implied that He was hidden from them in a visible or tangible way. The hidden key to this, the God scenario, is fundamental to an understan ding of may so called 'problems' of the Christian faith.
