Genesis, Science, and the Culture War
Self
After being contracted to speak at a university in Oklahoma—then surprisingly cancelled—an ensuing national media frenzy led to the re-booking of an event that might otherwise have slipped quietly under the radar. In a packed auditorium at the University of Central Oklahoma, AiG founder Ken Ham showed that cultural issues like abortion and gay "marriage" are viewed differently because people start with different foundations. Dr. Georgia Purdom (PhD in molecular genetics) then did the same for scientific issues like mutation and natural selection and showed that science supports a biblical, not an evolutionary, worldview.
Wonder of DNA
herself
The amazing information system known as DNA bears the stamp of being designed and created by God. You learned about DNA in high school biology, but did youknow that DNA includes hidden codes, regulatory information (that for many years was considered by evolutionists to be "junk" DNA), and epigenetic information that consists of chemical markers that affect the expression of DNA? The complexity of DNA and the many layers of information encoded by it greatly constrain the ability evolution would have to achieve the random changes necessary for molecules-to-man evolution. Clearly, DNA is not the result of evolutionary processes and disorder but the creative processes and design of the Creator God.
Kids’ Most-asked Questions
herself
God designed humans to be curious about the world and universe around them. This is especially obvious in children. Most of their questions are pretty easy. But what about the questions that can stump even mom & dad? What happened to the dinosaurs? Why did grandpa have to die? Where did we come from? Did God really create the world or did it evolve? Could aliens be real? Kids today are bombarded with false information from TV, the internet, school, movies, and books about the past. As Christians, we need to give them the true answers from God's Word (beginning in Genesis) and show them how science confirms the Bible’s truth. In this new video, Dr. Georgia Purdom reveals simple, Bible-based answers that parents can use with children of all ages!
Wonder of the Cell
herself
Dr. Georgia Purdom uses her intimate knowledge of the inner workings of a human cell to provide a glimpse into its amazing complexity. Detailed computer animations show how the intricate “machinery” working in a single cell can only be explained as the handiwork of the Master Designer. The cells of our bodies exhibit many amazing designs. They are miniature factories that perform thousands of jobs every second! In this DVD, Dr. Purdom explores the complexities and inner working of the cell using visually stunning animations. Journey through the bloodstream to investigate how white blood cells eliminate a bacterial infection. You will encounter proteins that literally “walk” down cellular “highways” and cells that dramatically change their shape. As a result, you will gain a greater appreciation for love and the designs of Creator God. (48 minutes)
Hope Amid Despair
herself
Eve was the original bad girl of the Bible. She left a legacy of sin and despair that affects our parenting and marriages even today. But Eve has another legacy— through her seed came Jesus Christ, the Redeemer of man. Understanding Eve and how God worked in and through her gives us hope for today. In this presentation by Dr. Purdom, you will truly understand the life and legacies of Eve. You’ll discover that where sorrow and despair abound, God’s love and mercy abound still more, and lead us to a life marked by hope in the Creator whose Word is true and who keeps His promises.
All Creatures Great & Small
herself
Bacteria are often used as a model organism for evolutionary biology, but there are many reasons this is not appropriate. This interesting DVD uses a creationist perspective to help us understand God’s original design and purpose for microbes and how various genetic mechanisms since the Fall have led to bacteria that cause disease.
Genetics, Evolution, and Creation
herself
From gene duplication to beneficial mutations, more and more evolutionists are attempting to use discoveries in the field of genetics as proof for common ancestry of life on earth. In this informative new DVD, Georgia Purdom (PhD, molecular genetics) examines these arguments and shows why they are not evidence for common ancestry. Using non-technical language and illustrations, Dr. Purdom examines mitochondrial Eve, proposed human chromosome 2 fusion, ancient repetitive elements (AREs), gene duplication, and beneficial mutations to demonstrate that these “proofs” of evolution are nothing of the kind, but rather can easily be explained from a biblical worldview. (60 minutes)
The Code of Life: DNA, Information, and Mutation
herself
The letters DNA have become a part of everyday language—in the media, schools, churches, and homes. DNA exists in the cells of all living organisms and contains an incalculable amount of information necessary for life. Evolutionary interpretations have led to the incorrect beliefs that mutations and natural selection are responsible for adding the information necessary for molecules-to-man evolution and that "junk" DNA is merely a leftover from this process. This DVD will explore the fascinating world of DNA and clearly show that "junk" DNA isn't junk and that mutations and natural selection are headed in the wrong direction, corrupting and decreasing information in DNA making evolution impossible. The origin of such diversity and variability could only be the God of the Bible!
The Intelligent Design Movement
herself
The Intelligent Design (ID) Movement has gained much popularity in both secular and Christian circles in recent years. Dr. Georgia Purdom reveals the history and unravels the good, the bad, and the ugly of this “new” idea regarding origins.
