Press Release

On Friday, October 7th at 7 pm, Dr. Jonathan Sarfati will give a lecture on Creation vs. Evolution called “Design, Deluge and Dilemma” at the Heritage Christian School in Canton, OH. Dr. Jonathan Sarfati is an internationally known scientist, chess master, logician and Christian apologist. The event is sponsored by the Akron Fossils & Science Center, Ohio's only creation museum located in Copley Township.

Dr. Sarfati’s latest book "The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Refuting Dawkins on Evolution" gives a penetrating dissection of Dr Dawkins’ anticreationist magnum opus. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of biology, geology, fossils, radiometric dating, and more, he identifies flaw after flaw in Dawkins’ arguments, responding to them directly, point by point. 
 
It has become almost axiomatic to believe that all the real scientific arguments lie with the evolutionists, and that the creationists are well and truly on the back foot. Dr Sarfati’s new book shows that this battle is far from over, presenting a slew of rational and credible arguments. The book lends some force to the claim that if readers have only part of the picture, arguments for evolution and against creation can sound more convincing than when informed creationists enter the arena, as here. Cornell University professor, Dr. John Sanford, pioneer of genetic engineering and inventor of the gene-gun, writes, “In my opinion Sarfati’s book beats Dawkins’ book, point by point, on all issues.” As well as dealing with the scientific issues, Sarfati scrutinizes Dawkins’ methods, highlighting the tactics he perceives, such as straw-men, bait-and-switch, as well as identifying a number of claimed logical fallacies. 
 
Sarfati is not new to the evolution/creation controversy, and authored the best-selling book, Refuting Evolution, which now has over 500,000 copies in print. His confident and rigorous approach always makes thrilling reading, as he tackles evolutionists head-on. Unlike many Christian writers who have purported to take on Dawkins, he never dodges the issues or ducks the implications of what the Bible actually claims. And he is able to make the science mostly accessible to the lay reader, making it an informative and educational read that is nonetheless an intellectual feast for the scientifically trained. "The Greatest Hoax on Earth?" pulls together the most up-to-date arguments against evolution and in defense of the biblical account of origins.
