FOUNDATIONS IN GENESIS OF IDAHO/OREGON

PRESENTS

GENETICS ACCORDING TO JESUS

Featuring     

DR. ROBERT CARTER

The book of Genesis is a history book, not a science book. However, the book makes some grand claims about the past that should become evident as we explore the world through science. As a sound source for the history of man, we should be able to detect the major events of Genesis through modern genetics. There are three main events that, if they occurred at all, must have left an indelible mark on our genetic makeup: Creation, the Flood, and the Tower of Babel. Each one of these can be clearly seen if one knows where to look!


In his freshman year of college, Dr. Carter was exposed to creationism for the first time and soon after adopted it as his modus operandi. He says he felt a tremendous joy when he realized his science and his religion were no longer at odds. This joy (and, he says, Creation magazine and the Journal of Creation) enabled him to get through the in-depth evolutionary training of his undergraduate and graduate programs with his faith intact. He obtained a BS in Applied Biology from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1992. He then spent four years teaching high school biology, chemistry, physics and electronics before going to the University of Miami to obtain his PhD in Marine Biology. He is currently Head Speaker/Scientist for CMI-USA in Atlanta, Georgia, where he lives with his wife, Leanne, and children and is currently researching human genetics and other issues related to biblical creation.

FOUNDATIONS IN GENESIS OF IDAHO/OREGON

Foundations In Genesis of Idaho/Oregon, also known as ‘FIGI’ (pronounced fig-ee), is a local Creation Science organization that hosts Adult & Children's science seminars and geological field adventures. Bringing in scientists who are experts in their fields, FIGI Seminars & Field Adventures offer fascinating information and cutting edge evidence which encourages critical thinking and an understanding of factual science which are key in which worldview (biblical or evolutionary) a person chooses.

“For by Him all things were created…”   Colossians 1:16


“For in six days the Lord made the Heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them...”
Exodus 20:11

What does science tell us about the scriptures above?  Did everything evolve millions of years ago beginning with a big bang or are we living on a relatively young earth created by God? 

Please join us. Our seminars are lay people friendly and are offered at no charge.  Our geological field adventures consist of local one day trips and camping expeditions and costs are minimal. Check out our website for a history of our past seminars & Field Adventures and for upcoming events.
