Creation Science's Greatest Hits

By Jonah Mooney | 4.23.07

When Litmus Zine contacted me about showcasing some of the best Creation Science videos from YouTube, I viewed it as a rather progressive move, an attempt (finally!) to recognize creation science as science and reconcile the popularly-held divide between science and religion. Although I object to the coarse language that many of the contributing writers have used in previous issues, a symptom of moral degeneracy that passes these days as hip or cool and that can be traced back to Charles Darwin, I am willing to hold out an olive branch in recognition of the editors’ commitment to pushing the frontiers of science.

There are an abundance of videos on YouTube that provide a creation science perspective, but many of them are full lectures or sermons that run well over an hour in length. The preachings of Kent Hovind, for example, have been captured in a series of eloquent and firmly reasoned talks regarding the appearance of dinosaurs in the Bible. Similarly, Ken Ham, who currently leads the prominent Answers in Genesis movement, is well represented with several films in which he provides solid evidence against the occurrence of evolution. While these videos are certainly worth a look, I have been advised to present more “pithy” clips for those with short-attention spans. The clips I provide below present the most compelling scientific evidence against evolution and can be said to represent, in my opinion, Creation Science’s greatest hits.
