The Rise of Darwinism and Its Implications for Society - Bruce Barton



 by Bruce Barton
Seattle Creation Conference, July 2006.



Why was Darwin’s Origin of Species accepted so enthusiastically by theologians, scientists, and philosophers?  How has science come to be dominated by materialism and naturalism?  Charles Darwin has been lionized as the father of evolutionism, but deist and atheist philosophers had been setting the stage for rejecting God as Creator for many years before his book appeared.  The ideas of Darwin and his predecessors continue to affect our thinking today, with huge consequences for our society.  This presentation will trace some of the ideas leading to Darwin’s evolutionary thought and beyond, and how they’ve affected our culture.

This seminar was recorded during the Seattle Creation Conference, Aug 10-12, 2006 at Overlake Christian Church, Redmond WA. They may be viewed free online or downloaded to your computer.
