Creation Astronomy

by Chris W. Ashcraft M.S., M.Ed., MTMS

Description:

Many modern astronomers have adopted a worldview that is in stark contrast to the Bible. Holding to a materialistic philosophy, they seek to explain the origin of the cosmos and the celestial bodies through purely natural processes.

This presentation provides a general introduction to astronomy from the Biblical worldview ("creation astronomy"). Creation astronomers, which includes many of the fathers of astronomy, such as Nicolas Copernicus and Sir Isaac Newton, look to the Word of God for special understanding. The origin and age of the cosmos and the celestial bodies are discussed, and important evidence of fine-tuning is illustrated.
