Criação vs. Evolução: O que veio antes do que conhecemos?

de Frederick Guttmann ...

Amante da paleontologia, há quase duas décadas comecei a encontrar muitas falhas na teoria da evolução. As coisas que estudei e descobri não correspondiam às alegações dos evolucionistas, e continuei encontrando cada vez mais inconsistências, incongruências e até mentiras descaradas. Por que isso? Por que haveria interesse em manipular o registro paleontológico? Quem tem algo a ganhar com isso?A ... Leer más
