In The Great Evangelical Disaster, Francis Schaeffer said,
The issue is whether the Bible gives propositional truth
… where it touches history and the cosmos and this all the way back to
pre-Abrahamic history, all the way back to the first eleven chapters of Genesis … [2]
“Every single
biblical doctrine of theology, directly or indirectly, ultimately has its basis
in the Book of Genesis” – Ken Ham. [3]
Writing in “The Funeral of a Great Myth” C.S. Lewis
wrote,
… everything is moving “upwards and onwards.” Reason has “evolved” out of instinct …
civilization out of savagery … [many Darwinists claim] reason, virtue, art and
civilization as we now know them are only crude or embryonic beginnings of far
better things – perhaps Deity itself – in the remote future. [4]
