The Tertiary Stratigraphy Surrounding Americus, Georgia:
Evidence in Support of the Young-Earth Flood Framework
Carl R. Froede, Jr.
Uniformitarian scientists define their stratigraphic column using fossils
linked to type sections, with the expectation that the rock record should
exhibit evolutionary trends in its strata. However, such is often not
the case. A significant portion of the “Tertiary” section
exposed along road cuts and in open-pit mines near Americus, Georgia
is barren of both body fossils and trace fossils. Hence, there is sparse
evidence to support the assertion that the strata reflect millions of
years of evolution. Instead, these sediments exhibit features suggesting
high-energy deposition. The field data are more amenable to an interpretation
within the young-Earth Flood framework.
CO2 Gas Well Effluent Analysis
John R. Doughty
Radiocarbon is found throughout the geological record,
thus indicating a young earth. This research expands that information
base by sampling the carbon dioxide in four of the five major CO2 gas
fields in the USA, and performing isotopic analyses. The data is consistent
with the young earth creationist paradigm and provides additional incentive
to investigate the isotopic composition of the earth’s crustal
gases.

Darwinism and the Deterioration of the Genome
Jerry Bergman
An evaluation of DNA/RNA mutations indicates that they
cannot provide significant new levels of information. Instead, mutations
will produce degradation of the information in the genome. This is the
opposite of the predictions of the neoDarwinian origins model. Such
genome degradation is counteracted by natural selection that helps maintain
the status quo. Degradation results for many reasons, two of which are
reviewed here: 1) there is a tendency for mutations to produce a highly
disproportionate number of certain nucleotide bases such as thymine
and 2) many mutations occur in only a relatively few places within the
gene called “hot spots,” and rarely occur in others, known as “cold
spots.” An extensive review of the literature fails to reveal a single
clear example of a beneficial information-gaining mutation. Conversely,
thousands of deleterious mutations exist, supporting the hypothesis
that very few mutations are beneficial. These findings support a creation
origins model.

The Bible, Epidemiology, and Edenomics
Jeffrey G. Schragin
Many evolutionists claim that science has disproved the
Bible and they use this claim to discredit creationism. In this paper
I view the Bible from an epidemiologic perspective and attempt to show
that, contrary to being disproved by science, it can be considered a
general guide to medical epidemiology. The concepts of health and disease,
the Creation Health Model, and the critical dependence of human health
on plant life are discussed and shown to be challenges to Darwinian
evolution. Human nutrition and health are immensely complex on the molecular
level. I introduce the term edenomics to describe the interactions between
plant phytochemicals and human cellular biology. Edenomics suggests
reductionist understanding of the molecular biology of chronic diseases
may remain illusive and that lifestyle may be the most important determinant
of health in developed nations. It is concluded that the science of
epidemiology supports the Bible and is opposed to neodarwinism.
