Research
Various research papers I have written [or co-authored] regarding earth history have appeared in print over the years. Some appear for the first time here on CreationHistory.com. It is my hope that they will help you better understand the relationship between biblical history and the world around you. And for those interested in the fossil record, especially as it relates to the geologic periods, it is my desire that the CCC model will aid you in interpreting the data from a scientific yet biblical perspective.

Angels Marry Women?
Many have wondered about the "sons of God" in Genesis 6:1 and the "Nephilim" on the Earth. Here is the surprising answer from the Bible and history.
Animal Death — Due to Man's Sin?
Did God create immortal animals with Adam and Eve? Some think this is true and use it as "proof" that death recorded in the fossil record (assuming an old earth) would therefore be incompatible with the Bible. This article shows why this argument should not be used.
The Biblical Flood and Geology
One of the most puzzling things for many young earth creationists to explain is: “If most of the fossil record around the world (with its billions of fossils) is the result of Noah’s Flood, why haven’t huge burials of human fossils been found?” The human population of the world before the Flood could have been in the billions. The fundamental question of the lack of human Deluge fossils must be faced.
Book Report: The Evolution Controversy — A Response
In 2007, Thomas B. Fowler and Dr. Daniel Kuebler, published their book THE EVOLUTION CONTROVERSY — A Survey of Competing Theories. It contains information and remarks regarding the Creation/Curse/Catastrophe (CCC) geologic model. Here, in a simple question and answer format, is an evaluation of the book's comments on the CCC model.
Book Report: The Man Who Found Time
This is the story of Scottish James Hutton (1726-1797) who along with Charles Lyell (1797-1875) and Charles Darwin (1809-1882) helped overthrow in the minds of many the belief in a Biblically-based, young Earth creation. Repcheck's thorough review of the historical aspects of the controversy is well worth reading. He shows how gradually through time bits and pieces of the Creation story were cast aside. The reasons were manifold.
Book Report: The Science of God
This book has become a classic in the field of books exploring the relationship between Scripture and science. And for that reason, it is a must reading. Schroeder's attempt at reconciliation between the two is a "mixed bag" to Young Earth Creationists. For one thing, he does a superb job in pointing out many inconsistencies in the commonly held Darwinism/gradualism concepts held so long in evolutionary circles.
The Case for the Calaveras Skull
Robert E. Gentet and Edward C. Lain
The Calaveras Skull was discovered in 1866 in a gold-bearing gravel dated by conventional geology as tens of millions of years older than man's supposed origin. It initiated one of the greatest controversies over American fossil finds of ancient man.
The Creation History of Calaveras Man and His Artifacts
Robert E. Gentet and Edward C. Lain
Young Earth geology needs to be able to evaluate any area on earth. How does its history fit into the biblical chronology from Creation Week to the present? Read here the CCC Model's interpretation of the geologic setting of the California gold-bearing gravels and their amazing human remains and artifacts.
Creation Time - Events
Scripture offers a comprehensive over-view of history and the future. This Creation Time-Events chart offers a skeleton outline of the past and of the future.
Video: The Demise of Evolution
Edward C. Lain
Many people today are throwing up their hands in confusion concerning Creation versus the Theory of Evolution. Yet, a high school freshman, given a few scientific proofs, can bring about the demise of evolutionism without ever using the Bible.
Did it Rain Before the Flood?
Some creationists think the Bible prohibits rainfall before the Flood and hence any pre-Flood catastrophe due to rain. Here's my biblical and scientific answer.
Early Peoples of the California Sierra Nevada Mountains
Robert E. Gentet and Edward C. Lain
Geological evidence shows the ancient arrival of humans into the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California. This early post-Flood arrival needs an explanation. This article shows how we may understand such an early arrival from the Tower of Babel in the Middle East.
Forum on Dinosaur Eggs, Nests, and Tracks
Robert E. Gentet and Edward C. Lain
Empirical evidences of fossil dinosaur eggs, nest sites and billions of tracks are compelling evidence for geologic events other than the Noachian Deluge. These physical records, however, in no way contradict nor discredit the Genesis account of the Noachian Flood.
Friesenhahn Cave: Window on the Past
Robert E. Gentet and Edward C. Lain
Concordia University at Austin, Texas, recently acquired Friesenhahn Cave near San Antonio, Texas. No other site except perhaps the La Brea Tar Pits in California yielded a greater variety of Pleistocene vertebrate fossils. The site offers exciting possibilities for further research.
