In today’s culture, many people have bought into the lies of evolution, political correctness, relative truth, and religious ‘tolerance’. As such, many people do not have the foundational beliefs necessary ... (more, on the Creation Science Society of Milwaukee website)

Dr. Jerry Bergman mini-seminar "Persuaded by the Evidence"
Christian Liberty Church, 502 West Euclid Ave., Arlington Heights, IL

Midwest Creation Fellowship presents Dr. Jerry Bergman! If you read any creation-oriented periodicals, you've probably seen some of his articles. His commitment to objective truth caused him to become a 'heretic' to Jehovah's Witnesses, then to atheism. His examination of the fossil record and Neanderthals led to ... Christ! So, what scientific evidence could cause a serious scholar to abandon atheism? And, what happens to those who do? Please call 847-223-4730 to register, so we can plan for a light refreshment break. No charge, but a freewill offering basket will be available, the proceeds going towards the honorarium.

MCF will be there at a table. No charge, but a freewill offering basket will be placed in the foyer.
Brian Thomas -- bio Sunday, October 3, 2010, 11:00 a.m. morning service
Brian Thomas of the Institute for Creation Research
"Why Genesis Matters: Scientific Tools for Creation Teaching"
Woodside Bible Chapel, 621 N. First Ave., Maywood, IL

Why should anyone care how long God took to make the earth and universe? Isn't this just a matter for theologians to split hairs over? This presentation focuses on the age of the earth, fossils, and the common pitfalls that war against faith in Jesus Christ and the Bible. Mr. Thomas is the Science Writer for the website of the Institute for Creation Research, contributing daily news, articles, editing, and speaking.

Dr. Paul Nelson on "What Happened to Darwin's 'Tree of Life'?"
Wheaton Public Library, 225 N. Cross St., Wheaton, IL

Midwest Creation Fellowship presents Dr. Paul Nelson! Darwin pictured all organisms arising from a single bacterium, like a great Tree with a single root. Within the past decade, however, a growing number of evolutionary biologists have announced that biology must “go beyond the doctrine of common descent” and that “the Tree of Life is dead.” What discoveries motivate these claims? Dr. Nelson will review the genomic data fracturing the Tree of Life at its base, and what this means for the future of biology. No charge, but a freewill offering basket will be present for those who wish to support the meetings.
