    Many historians, Refute the current arguments for evolution! Refuting Evolution
    Dr. Jonathan Sarfati

    A general critique of the most up-to-date arguments for evolution to challenge educators, students, and parents. Thus it provides a good summary of the arguments against evolution and for creation. It also exposes the flat earth myth and corrects misinformation about the Galileo affair. (High School–Adult) See review MORE INFO / PURCHASE ONLINE of many different religious persuasions including atheistic, have shown that modern science started to flourish only in largely Christian Europe. These historians point out that the basis of modern science depends on the assumption that the universe was made by a rational creator. An orderly universe makes perfect sense only if it were made by an orderly Creator. But if there is no creator, or if Zeus and his gang were in charge, why should there be any order at all? So, not only is a strong Christian belief not an obstacle to science, such a belief was its very foundation. The book on the right provides more information. See also a refutation of the argument Newton was a creationist only because there was no alternative?

    Many sources of brief biographies are dedicated to specific subjects, suchas writers, scientists, politicians, etc. When Did the Person Live?

    Locating information from full-length books to brief Internet resources.
    How Much Do Information Do You Need?
    The first step when searching for information about a person is to decide how much information you want. This will have a major effect on where to look, because there are sources with brief factual information all the way up to full-length books with deep analysis. If you need a full-length biography, read the section in the box to the right. The sources listed below have briefer information, anywhere from a paragraph to several pages. These are a mix of print and online resources. If you have questions about how to access any of these, contact a library The second step in looking for biographical information is to focus your search. Many biography sources specialize in their coverage. Think about the following factors. Why Is the Person Famous? Many sources of brief biographies are dedicated to specific subjects, such as writers, scientists, politicians, etc. When Did the Person Live? Some sources only cover living people, some only dead, some are a mix. Also think about how long a living person has been famous. The more recent the person, the less likely it is they will appear in reference sources. Magazine articles and the web are probably going to be more useful.
