CREATION

             Duane T. Gish has been one of the few people I have read on, that gives sensible reactions against the theories of both creation and evolution. In his writing "Creationist Science and Education", it might be a little obvious he goes off better with creation, but he never tries to persuade the readers to follow his choice.

             I have come to the conclusion that from all the philosophers we have studied in class till now, Gish is the only one who has made some sense among myself. Maybe it's because of the fact that I strongly support the creation theory. Before I started reading his essay, this idea was already straight in my head, but I found out how evolution can really be proven wrong. And what surprised me the most, was that these proofs were so simple that people don't have to be geniuses to discover that this theory is not on the right track. A clear example of this is given by Gish, he describes how scientist have discovered that the evolution of an amoeba to a man would take billions of years. I mean, this is completely out of focus for anyone who knows that the earth is only 5 million years old!
             I have also enjoyed very much the feeling of power this philosopher reflects while he writes. He writes with such confidence that he
