Nearly three out of five Christian young adults
disconnect from church, and a primary reason is a perceived tension between
science and their faith. Twenty-five percent believe that “Christianity is
anti-science,” according to the Barna Group. A recent YouGov survey revealed
that belief in naturalistic evolution (without God’s involvement) has increased
8% since 2004.
Alarmed at the growing number of young people leaving
Christianity, especially over the issue of origins, Ray Comfort in an ambitious
project aimed at reversing the trend produced Evolution vs. God: Shaking the Foundations of Faith, a 36-minute
DVD which has been described as “revealing, thought-provoking, and challenging”
by Norm Geisler and a “tour de force” by apologist James White.
Ray Comfort said, “The church is losing its kids to the
world over the evolution issue, and it’s a problem that should alarm all of us.
Outspoken atheists have been poisoning the future leaders of our nation and
leading them away from God. I am deeply concerned that many of our young people
are being drawn into deception because they think Darwinian evolution is
scientific. But ask for the actual evidence, and you’ll find it just isn’t
there.”
“I want to get this weapon of knowledge into the hands of
parents,” the best-selling author added. “The church should be armed with the
facts about this vital issue and get serious about teaching it. Our young
people need to understand the truth - so they don’t succumb to the lie of
evolution themselves, and so they can be equipped to explain it to others.”
I recommend this short DVD film and strongly feel it
is a must for every Christian home.
RAY COMFORT is the best-selling author of more than 70
books. He is also the co-host of an award-winning television program (with
actor Kirk Cameron) which is seen in 123 countries. He has spoken on the
subject of atheism at Yale and other prestigious universities; debated on ABC's
Nightline; and written, God Doesn't Believe in Atheists, The Atheist Test
(booklet-over one million copies sold), You can Lead an Atheist to Evidence
But You can't Make Him Think (WND publishing). He was a platform speaker for
American Atheists, Inc., at their 2001 National Convention.
The movie is available on DVD or can be freely viewed here.
