Even Stephen Hawking acknowledges the beginning of the existence
of the universe, regardless of his proposal of a timeless universe using
imaginary time. See Stephen Hawking, The Illustrated A Brief History
of Time (New York, NY: Bantam Books, 1996).

Many proponents of evolution subscribe to a set of naturalistic and
mechanistic — if not atheistic — presuppositions, which disqualifies
them from any claim to objectivity in examining matters concerning
origins and science.

That is, until a mutation has been observed to improve the DNA
code by producing new meaningful information (or instructions),
there is no proof that any mechanism (mutations or otherwise) can
account for the evolution of living things.

atheistic motivation of many leaders today in the scientific community.

However, there may be certain “truths” that can be extracted from
several religions at once.

Except those such as the fellows of the Jesus Seminar, whose work is so
erroneous it has been progressively discredited even by liberal non-
Christian scholars — see Michael J. Wilkins and J.P. Moreland, general
editors, Jesus Under Fire (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan Publishing
House, 1995).

There is no reason scientifically because the possibility of a miracle
does not contradict science or any known facts of experience.

A random mutation is not likely to improve an organism’s genetic
code any more than firing a gunshot blindly through the hood of a
car is likely to improve engine performance. – University biology
