Pat Robertson Denies the Bible's Claim That the World Was Made in Six Days

2/18/2014

Following last week's debate between creationist Ken Ham and evolutionist Bill Nye, Pat Robertson, head of The 700 Club, said he does not agree that the earth is 6,000 years old ("Christian Leader Pat Robertson Shuts Down Ken Ham on Creationism," The Blaze, Feb. 5, 2014). Robertson said the same thing in 2012 in a reply to a Christian mother who is concerned that her sons and husband are abandoning the biblical faith for the lies of evolutionary philosophy parading as science ("Pat Robertson Says Dinosaurs Prove Young Earth Creationists Are Wrong," Christian Post, Nov. 28, 2012). She got a horribly-wrong answer from Robertson, which is not surprising as he has long been in doctrinal never-never land ever since he received the bogus charismatic "baptism in the Holy Spirit" in the late 1950s. He errs in thinking that evolutionary science, including its dating methods, is real science. Evolutionary science is not real science; it is an interpretation of the facts of science through the eyes of willful skepticism. It is based upon nothing more solid than evolutionary presuppositions. Real science supports the Bible, and this has been documented by many highly qualified scientists, such as the Ph.D's that we list in Testimonies of Scientists Who Believe the Bible, available as a free eBook from www.wayoflife.org. It is essential to understand that evolution does not rate as a theory or even as a hypothesis. As David Stone, Ph.D. physics, says, "Scientific theories involve quantitative modeling, experimental data, and repeated validation by prediction and observation. In any aspect of the philosophy / fantasy of evolution, there is no 'theory.' There is no theory for formation of the first protein, first DNA, first cellular sub-structures, first cell, multi-celled creatures, transitions between kinds, etc. Just stories. There are no genetic data, not a single observed case of mutations and natural selection producing new, complex tissues, organs, or creatures. ... Evolution qualifies merely as a philosophical, even a religious idea, void of scientific support, and intended to replace biblical truth with stories" (Dr. Stone, e-mail to David Cloud, August 21, 2011). There is nothing "poetic" about the Bible's creation account. "An evening and a morning" does not add up to millions of years. Back in 1922, William Jennings Bryan wisely said, "It is no light matter to impeach the veracity of the Scriptures in order to accept, not a truth--not even a theory--but a mere hypothesis" (In His Image, 1922, p. 94). Bryan was correct in this statement, but he too erred by giving credence to a "long day" view of Genesis 1, thus undermining the biblical account. This is exactly what men such as Pat Robertson are doing in our day, and it is destructive to the cause of Jesus Christ.
