Exposing Darwinism's Weakest Link: Why Evolution Can't Explain Human Existence

by Kenneth Poppe

Overview

Readers will find author Kenneth Poppe a knowledgeable, easy–to–follow guide as he focuses on the origin and nature of the species called Homo sapiens—man.

Presented with energy and humor, this up–to–date resource pulls no punches in its conclusion. All aspects of humanity that make us unique among life–forms, argues Poppe, were designed and implemented at the will of a supernatural Being. This is where the evidence points.

With a special gift for helpful analogies, good examples, and clear explanations, the author blows the lid off Darwinian myths surrounding issues like

• evidence for prehistoric man
• structures and behaviors thought to be remnants of earlier evolutionary steps
• the beginning of speech
• the origin of morality

Highly readable for anyone with a general background and superb for students and parents, as well as homeschoolers and educators who wish to present a complete picture of origins science.
