Both evolutionary and biblical models of the origin of viruses are presented, followed by a brief survey of viral types and their interaction with human cells. Beneficial uses of virus in medical treatment and a few selected viral diseases are discussed. This talk ends with some comments on the current Covid-19 situation and a novel approach to vaccination.
What does the Bible teach about ocean currents? How do sea creatures survive from surface pools to crushing ocean depths over five miles deep? What is the origin of water in and on Earth and why is it chemically strange? How did the critical connection between moon-induced tides and weather perfectly evolve? What affects do […]
A creationist and an evolutionist can work together to dig up a dinosaur fossil. They will just disagree on where this dinosaur came from, how long ago it lived, and what killed it. Mr. Sherwin begins this talk by asking children under 12 to identify pictures of some of the more popular "thunder lizards". He […]
After the eruption of MSH the blast area looked like a lunar landscape. It was predicted by some that it would take many decades for animals & plants to repopulate the blast zone. Surprisingly, this was not the case. Creation ecologists have extrapolated this rapid recovery to what happened directly after the Flood 4500 years […]
No other animal in God's creation elicits as much awe and wonder as the hummingbird - small, incredibly colorful, and fearless. Their heartbeat and wingbeat is the fastest in the animal kingdom. Their vision into the ultraviolet range and biomechanics of their tongue to feed amazes zoologists. The navigation and migration of the hummingbird, sound […]

Critics regularly say, “Creation is either something you believe or don’t believe, but there’s no evidence for it.” The case for creation is rooted in what Paul teaches in Romans 1—that God’s work and attributes are “clearly seen.” Mr. Sherwin describes the tools needed to discern objects that have been made (created) vs. objects that […]
Insects belong to the largest group of animals in the world, the arthropods. Mr. Sherwin uses the fossil record to show that insects have always been insects. There is no indication they evolved from non-insects. He also discusses fascinating features of insects today, including the bombardier beetle, morpho butterfly, dragonfly, and the amazing honeybee. Mask […]
Mr. Sherwin looks at the first 11 chapters of Genesis and explains why they should be taken literally, not allegorically or poetically. He concludes with an appeal to Christians to know why they believe what they believe and why Genesis should be our rock-solid foundation from its very first verse. Mask Policy: Optional
Mr. Sherwin discusses the origin of water in Earth and the amazing variety of marine life found in venues from tidal pools all the way to crushing ocean depths over five miles down. He also talks about the critical connection between moon-induced tides and weather, and important paths or currents in the oceans mentioned in […]
