Why Creationism Still Matters

Does creationism still matter? The goal of this book is to make a clear and strong affirmation that creationism does still matter. Through a wide-ranging interweaving of relevant considerations of biblical creationism, the chapters in Why Creationism Still Matters consider: how the cosmological argument for God's existence highlights the necessity of a Creator; how the Bible present God as creator from its first words to its final chapters; reflections on biblical creationism from philosophical, theological, evangelistic, and pastoral perspectives; why and how the matter of the origin of life is disputed among Islamic scholars; the intriguing intersection of the image of God in humanity, animals, and transhumanism; what a reflection on the beauty and order of nature reveals about a Creator; whether evidence and reason support a commitment to unguided evolution or divine creation; significant voices in the history of Christianity on the matter of creationism; and how the prophet Isaiah presents a clear and compelling argument for creationism.
