 PDF “Young Earth” vs. “Old Earth” - Where Do They Agree?
AUTHORS:  Ankerberg, Dr. John
There are actually a number of areas of agreement between those who disagree on the age of the earth. But there are other areas where they ought to agree—but that are still a problem. Dr. Ankerberg explains.

 PDF Differing View of the “Days” of Genesis
AUTHORS:  Ankerberg, Dr. John / Geisler, Dr. Norman
There are two major views with regard to the time involved in Creation: six literal 24-hour days, or six long periods of time. This article presents arguments for the 24-hour-day position with response from Scripture and science.

 PDF What is the Biblical Evidence for Long Days in Genesis?
AUTHORS:  Ankerberg, Dr. John / Weldon, Dr. John
There are many indications within the text of Scripture to support the belief that the creation days were longer than twenty four hours.
Anthropic Principle

HTML

 PDF Design and the Anthropic Principle
AUTHORS:  Ross, Dr. Hugh
Summary : Human existence is possible because the constants of physics and the parameters for the universe and for planet Earth lie within certain highly restricted ranges. John Wheeler and others interpret these amazing "coincidences" as proof that human existence somehow determines the design of the universe. Drawing an illogical parallel with delayed-choice experiments in quantum mechanics, they say that observations by humans influence the design of the universe, not only now, but back to the beginning. Such versions of what is called the "anthropic principle" reflect current philosophical and religious leanings towards the deification of man. They produce no evidence to support the notion that man's present acts can influence past events. Furthermore, their analogies with quantum mechanics break down on this point. The "coincidental" values of the constants of physics and the parameters of the universe point, rather, to a designer who transcends the dimensions and limits of the physical universe. - Article courtesy Reasons to Believe: www.reasons.org ©Reasons To Believe

 PDF Biblical Evidences for an Immediate Creation Event
AUTHORS:  Wise, Dr. Kurt / Fouts, Dr. David
A debate rages among creationists at to whether the “days” of creation were 24-hour days, or long periods of time. At issue as well is whether the earth is “young”—a few thousand years, or “old”—perhaps millions of years. Using language a layman can understand, these two scientist lay out evidence that suggests that Creation was instantaneous rather than an extended event.
