The Scientific Case for Creation

This section discusses, in quick overview, 131 categories of evidence from biology, astronomy, and the physical and earth sciences. More technical discussions and documentation are found in the author’s extensive endnotes.

  • Does the scientific evidence support evolution or creation?
  • What insights do genetics and the fossil record provide?
  • How old is the earth? What dating techniques indicate a young earth?
  • What discoveries in outer space relate to our beginnings?
  • Does Noah’s Ark exist? What is the CIA’s “Ararat Anomaly”?

Fountains of the Great Deep

Learn about the hydroplate theory, developed during more than 35 years of study by Dr. Walt Brown, a former evolutionist. This theory explains a catastrophic event in earth’s history and solves a host of recognized problems. For decades, evolutionists complained that creationists only criticized evolution and did not offer sound scientific theories of their own. The hydroplate theory ends that complaint and explains, with overwhelming evidence, earth’s defining geological event—a worldwide flood.

  • If there was a global flood, where did the water come from? Where did it go?
  • What were the powerful fountains of the great deep?
  • How was the Grand Canyon carved in weeks after a post-flood lake (Grand Lake) breached?
  • What evidence shows that the material in comets, asteroids, and meteoroids came from Earth?
  • What suddenly froze and buried the mammoths?  How could they have survived the 6-month winter nights inside the Arctic Circle?
  • How did mountains ranges, volcanoes, submarine canyons, coal and oil deposits, and deep ocean trenches form?
  • What processes sorted fossils and produced layered strata?
  • How does the hydroplate theory explain the origins of Earth’s radioactivity

Frequently Asked Questions

Dive into 44 questions most frequently asked during question-and-answer sessions at seminars and media interviews including:

  • What are the 59 predictions of the Hydroplate Theory (including 10 that have come true)?
  • Have scientific tools detected traces of Adam and Eve within us?
  • Is evolution compatible with the Bible?
  • How accurate is radiocarbon dating?
  • What about the dinosaurs?
  • How can the study of creation be scientific?
  • Is there life in outer space?
  • Galaxies are billions of light-years away, so isn’t the universe billions of years old?

Technical Notes (More Answers to Great Questions)

Go even deeper with answers to additional compelling questions that provide technical explanations for these critical topics including:

  • Calculations that show comets began near Earth.
  • Did the preflood Earth have a 30-day lunar month?
  • How much energy is in the subterranean water?
  • Does tectonic plate subduction really occur?

About the Author

Walt Brown

Walt Brown

Walt Brown received a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he was a National Science Foundation Fellow. He has taught college courses in physics, mathematics, and computer science. Brown is a retired Air Force full colonel, West Point graduate, and former Army Ranger and paratrooper. Assignments during his 21 years of military service included: Director of Benét Laboratories (a major research, development, and engineering facility); tenured associate professor at the U.S. Air Force Academy; and Chief of Science and Technology Studies at the Air War College. For much of his life Walt Brown was an evolutionist, but after years of study, he became convinced of the scientific validity of creation and a global flood. Since retiring from the military, Dr. Brown has been the Director of the Center for Scientific Creation and has worked full time in research, writing, and teaching on creation and the flood.

For those who wish to know more about Walt Brown, Christian Men of Science: Eleven Men Who Changed the World by George Mulfinger and Julia Mulfinger Orozco devotes a chapter to Brown. It may be read by clicking here.
