GEOLOGIC COLUMN

The layers of the Geologic Column are ordered by age—oldest to youngest. The bottom layer is older than the next layer up. The big question—and one of the most significant areas of disagreement among scientists is—"How much older?"

 

Can you be intellectually honest and still believe the Bible?

The Origins Exhibit considers an interpretation of the geologic column—the layers of Earth's past—that is compatible with a creationist worldview.

Many Christians wonder what to believe about fossils because the biblical account of creation is in conflict with science's widely-accepted theory that fossils are millions of years old (and provide foundational evidence for evolution).

What is a Christian to think? The fossils are real. Both sides of the debate are looking at the same scientific data. Is the evidence reconcilable with the Bible?
