by Ian Juby | Jan 6, 2010 | Rants, raves and commentary
Y’all may remember the hub-bub I stirred up with my previous newsletter where I attempted to deal with the supposed inconsistencies in the genealogies of Christ listed in Matthew and Luke. There was a flurry of responses and comments, and a further one was brought to my attention today.
My newsletter and ministry is specifically devoted to creation, not Biblical apologetics. There are many fine Biblical apologeticists out there, so I’m not interested in re-inventing the wheel. So I dropped this issue from my newsletters (with the exception of the follow-up newsletter where I posted the responses I received), but I figured I’d post it here to my blog.
Sean O’Brien did an interesting write-up on the subject of the supposed errors and inconsistencies in the genealogies of Christ – enjoy!

Hey Happy New Year eh!
In this newsletter:
1) “Persuaded by the Evidence” official trailer released
2) New CrEvo Rant released – and a favour to ask
3) Stop the presses – hominids were smarter than us?!?!?
4) Portable museum update
5) Upcoming talks and tours
6) Joseph’s genealogy round-up!
***********************************************************
1) “Persuaded by the Evidence” official trailer released
As mentioned in previous newsletters, I interviewed six men for a movie this past year. “Persuaded by the Evidence” was inspired by the book of the same title, and is simply the testimonies of multiple atheists and evolutionists who are now young-earth creationists and born-again Christians.
Being produced in High-definition, you will find this video a real treat.
You can watch the trailer – in High Definition – on youtube via the official movie website:

**********************************************************
1) Ross’s claims on paluxy tracks and polystrate fossils.
Had a reader write in, asking about a video circulating on the internet. The video is by “progressive creationist” (read: theistic evolutionist with a fancy new name) Hugh Ross, and was a segment of the Q&A session on one of his videos.
Now, I gotta be honest with yas here: Much as I would like to be respectful, it is exceedingly difficult in this case. If I may make an analogy, it’s like trying to respectfully disagree with someone who claimed that a bunny rabbit ate a moose whole. How do you refute such a person without using the words that come to mind? Y’know – words like “lunatic,” “out of his tree,” and “you gotta be joking!”
Such is the case with Ross’s claims in this video segment, which you can watch on their website so you can hear it straight from the horse’s mouth:

The Paluxy Tracks:
Ross starts off by addressing the fossil human footprints found amongst dinosaur tracks in the Paluxy riverbed, Glen Rose, Texas. Of course, this happens to be one of my areas of expertise. Now in defense of Ross, he simply repeated the mantra that has been running around the internet, the “research” of Glen Kuban. You’ll see shortly why I have “research” in quotes.

One proposed layout for the portable museum
What you see above is two shipping containers, modified and joined together into a portable museum. This is the next step I’m taking towards building a permanent creation museum in Ottawa, Ontario.
Please pray for me and this project – and the souls who will visit this museum!

No really, that’s it – that’s all that’s going to be in this newsletter!
***********************************************************
1) Ardi ar arrr…
Artist’s best guess as to what Ardipithecus ramidus may have looked like.
Okay, so maybe it didn’t stand upright like that, and maybe it didn’t have human eyes like that, and maybe it was a male and not a female, and maybe it….well, it’s close at least!

The propaganda machine goes into overdrive:
Got a barrage of emails this week from my honourable news watch team regarding a supposed “Missing link” found this week which “proves” our ancestral relationship to the apes.
In fact, Science magazine even ran a special issue just on this fossil, CBC’s “Quirks and Quarks” devoted a segment of their program to it (downloadable as a 22 meg MP3), National Geographic had a spread on it as well.
Seeing as how there’s been so much fuss over this fossil, I thought I’d devote a newsletter in response.
As is typical, this “missing link” is presented with impressive pomp and circumstance before the emporer comes out wearing no clothes. We’ve seen this before time and again with Ida, Puijila, and even Archaeoraptor – the fraudulent fossil that was brazenly heralded with many bold claims as “proof of evolution” before it was quietly sidelined after it was discovered to be a fake. I still, to this day, occasionally have people bring up Archaeoraptor as proof of evolution. This is the power of propaganda.
