Show Me Creation Episode 4

About this Episode

Steve Grimes has a B.S. degree from Washington University in St. Louis in Systems and Data Processing. He was also an adjunct faculty member for the Washington University School of Engineering and Applied Science for 25 years, teaching Computer Systems Architecture in the undergraduate Bachelor of Science program. He currently works as a Business Intelligence developer, capping an Information Technology career that spans multiple computer environments and languages.

Marv Schaefer graduated St. Louis University in 1973 with a Bachelors degree in Marketing. He currently serves as President of the the Missouri Association for Creation.

His interest in the Creation/Evolution debate was kindled in 2004 when his 5th grade daughter was laughed at by her classmates and dismissed by her teacher for not believing that the earth is billions of years old. Since that time Marv has become a diligent student of Biblical Creation and the inherent flaws of the theory of evolution. It is his desire to pass that knowledge on to others.

Marv uses both absurdity and humor to press important points in his presentations. They are entertaining and thought-provoking for young adults as well as long-time believers.

-Mitochondrial Eve and our descendants coming from one woman and how when extrapolated back it goes back to one Y chromosome.

-Mutation rates fit the biblical model.

-The Thousand Genome Project and how it works and why it is so important.

-Error rates in genetic data and mutation data and rates.

-No matter how many genome projects, they still do not produce quality data.

-Where to find Dr. Rob Carter’s genome data.

-As far as genetics goes, there is no longer any privacy and all the skeletons in all those closets are coming out or is already out and readily accessible.
