Letter: Science has not proved evolution

Gary Boothe says that it is encouraging that 60 percent of Americans now believe in evolution. I am not quite sure where he gets his statistics, but it simply means that 60 percent of Americans have been deceived by the anti-theistic doctrine asserting that science has proved evolution.

Evolution is not science and science has not nor can prove evolution. It is true that the creation of the universe and mankind by God, the Creator, cannot be proved scientifically, but the natural laws of science can be.

Actually science tends to prove creation as told in the Book of Genesis. The flawed doctrine of evolution says that the universe needed millions of years to evolve from nothing into something. That is ludicrous. Evolution requires an increase in complexity over time, but in reality everything decreases in order over time. That is the Second Law of Thermodynamics, which is verifiable and provable.

God created the universe not millions of years ago, but probably 6,000 years ago. The un-prejudicial study of science tends to prove this.
