Welcome!
I assume that you arrived at this site because you came across the link posted at the bottom of my essay. (If not, you can read my essay below.)
Since I could only fit so much information on one sheet of paper, I did this little webpage to get you started.
A little about me...
I was born in the late 60's, raised, and still living around Boston,MA good ole USofA. I graduated high school,went to trade school, and have also taken a mere few college courses. For my means of employment, I work as a tradesman. I've been a Christian since the early 90's.
I say all this just to show that I don't have any formal training in theology or writing. I'm not a holier-than-thou Bible-thumper. I'm just someone who was a skeptic that wanted some answers and was willing to put the time in to find them, just like you can do too. I wrote my essay and did this website just to help give people a head start and save them much of the time, headaches, and aggravation that I went through.
So why should you just believe me and what is on all these other websites? I'm just saying look into it for yourself to see that it's true. If you are like I was, you've heard all kinds of stuff about how God is a fairy-tale and evolution is a scientific fact. I didn't know there was another opinion saying just the opposite! We hear about evolution all over the place like it is fact, but why should we just believe whatever our teacher or Dr. So-n-so on the Discovery Channel said? Because he's a doctor? Because he's on TV? Because the majority believes it? None of those are good reasons. We MUST question authority and think for OURSELVES ! Doctors and scientists are still mere fallible people. They all have their own weaknesses, biases, pre-conceived beliefs, and agendas. There are many Doctors and scientists that also believe in Intelligent Design by God, a recent Creation, and a global flood, and they give good, logical reasons why they do! I'm just asking "Have YOU every looked into BOTH sides of the story for YOURself and drawn your OWN conclusions or are you just following the majority ?????"
If you arrived at this site by some way other than my "paper" and aren't familiar with the "essay" I mentioned, you can read it by clicking the first link below. The rest of the links are sites that I thought would give you a head start. Now listen, if you are an honest seeker, don't be overwhelmed by the amount of information or reading difficulties. The sites are at all different levels of reading and comprehension. Just scan them until you find stuff that jumps out at you and catches your interest. If you want to take a leap of faith, pray and ask God to help you read, understand, and find Him !!
Also, if you don't like sitting in front of a computer reading, 2 of the best books that I've read about all this stuff are
"The New Answers Book Volume 1" by Ken Ham and
" A Ready Defense" by Josh McDowell.
You can find these books at Christian Book Distributors/christianbook.com
