Description:

Secular paleoanthropologists assert adamantly that humans are the descendants of ape-like ancestors. Darwin's seminal theory led naturalists inexorably to this conclusion, but the Bible clearly states that we were created distinct from the animals and in the image of God (Genesis 1:26-27 ). This presentation examines the evidence used to support human evolution, including Neanderthals and Australopithecines. Are these ancient hominids really missing links capable of substantiating human evolution or has the truth been distorted to support the materialistic evolutionary worldview?

This video file is a 50 minute seminar by Chris Ashcraft that was recorded during the Seattle Creation Conference October 2011 at Wooden Valley Baptist Church.
