Brief summary of site contents What we are all about in a nutshell
Apart from offering free deposition of testimonies we are all about making a case for Creationism based on leading edge science.
We have put together this compendium of articles on life's origin in the hope that it will stir Church Leaders and ultimately
the public at large into reconsidering their position on Darwin's theory of evolution now that the evidence is so heavily stacked
against it.
Our worthy aim has generated a lot of reading material
because of its complex nature but we can very easily submit a summary of the situation as things stand.  
John Lennox delivers a powerful presentation on the existence of God and the absurdity of Atheism. Best of all, he brings the topic right down to the place where the shadow of the cross falls on an empty tomb. To the mystery of mysteries & the Hope of Glory!
Science continues to reveal more complexity at the smallest levels of life. As a result the evolutionary account of life's origins is rapidly trending toward mythology. May God receive the glory for His incredible creation!
For those who do not have the time to explore our website in more detail we invite you to view a sequence of short videos about the amazing hidden world within all living cells. Renowned biochemist Michael Behe takes you on a journey of discovery that will surely open your eyes to the beauty of nature. He makes no claim as to who, or what, is at the heart of the design seen in nature other than to say that a super intelligent mind lies behind it all. He leaves it to us to decide the source of that super intellect. We believe the designer and engineer was our Almighty God. What do you think?
Even the atheist cosmologist Fred Hoyle observed, "common sense interpretation of the facts suggests that a super intellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology." From the tiniest atom, to living organisms, to the architecture of the entire cosmos, the fabric of nature shows strong evidence of intelligent design.
It is impossible not to be impressed by the quality and detail shown by these videos. The first one is absolutely brilliant and leaves no possibility that life could have evolved by undirected random processes as Darwin's theory proposes.
This story has been touted for years as a great example of Darwinian evolution in action. Countless textbooks are lavishly illustrated with photographs of light and dark moths resting on light and dark tree trunks to teach the wonders of evolution. "It is the slam dunk of natural selection, the paradigmatic story that converts high school and college students to Darwin, the thundering left hook to the jaw of creationism."
"How did stupid atoms spontaneously write their own software " ? Nobody knows " there is no known law of physics able to create information from nothing.
"Join biologist, Dr Don Batten, for a fascinating look at why natural selection is a conservative, culling force-rather than a creative one."
"mobile-friendly overviews of key issues related to evolution, intelligent design, and the impact of these theories on scientific progress, religious belief, and society at large."
"Explore a toolbox of websites, videos, books, and other resources designed to explore the evidence of intelligent design and limits of evolution"
Antony Flew, famous hard-nosed English atheistic philosopher, abandoned atheism because of the weight of evidence from these modern discoveries. He said, "It now seems to me that the findings of more than fifty years of DNA research have provided materials for a new and enormously powerful argument to design." This research, "has shown, by the almost unbelievable complexity of the arrangements which are needed to produce (life), that intelligence must have been involved". Darwin was wrong, but then he had little idea of such things. Darwin embraced materialism as a young man. As such, if he were alive today, he may well be like materialists of today, who are given to "futile thinking" (Romans 1:21-22) - like professor of genetics, Richard Lewontin, who wrote that "materialism is absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door." So, if Darwin were alive today, would he be a Darwinist? Probably-in spite of the evidence.
Carl Sagan in 1977 said: 'mutations occur at random and are almost uniformly harmful - it is rare that a precision machine is improved by a random change in the instructions for making it.'
Finally we appeal to the Church to take up the challenge and present these findings that point to a Creator God to their congregations, and ultimately to the World at large. We have only just been made aware two years after we started out that there is another potential meaning to the phrase 'givemystory' beyond the one intended, which was to provide ordinary people with the opportunity to express their admiration for who God is through their testimonies. We now realise that the chosen nomenclature could alternatively be understood to mean 'give God's story', and in fact this is what we have been doing rather than publishing stories or testimonies from people, because they have not been forthcoming. God does indeed work in mysterious ways his wonders to perform and they largely go unnoticed, including by us in this instance. * * * Perhaps you would like to help make a difference by offering support to 'The CREATION SCIENCE MOVEMENT (CSM)' based in Portsmouth, England. We have no direct links with them but we are fully in tune with their aims and ambitions. Our campaign started in 2020, whereas the CSM was founded in 1932 as 'The Evolution Protest Movement' by a small group of Christians concerned by the propaganda that was promoting the theory of evolution as if scientifically proven. It has grown in strength over the years but they are struggling to recruit new members especially from younger generations. Membership costs only 10 pounds sterling per annum and for this you will receive free monthly journals that reveal the fallacies that are an inherent part of Evolutionary thinking. The articles are easy to follow, and are written by experts in the field. Scientists working for the CSM conduct vigorous assessments of articles published, for example in the journal 'New Scientist' which put forward unsubstantiable theories about the Universe and the origin of life which conflict with God's word in the Bible. The articles in the monthly journals, and YouTube videos, are excellent and come highly recommended so why not donate 10 pounds per annum to help the CSM spread the message of Christianity to the world at large? There will be people in your congregation who would happily support the CSM's cause. They are a non-profit organisation trying to improve the facilities in Portsmouth to attract more visitors. They are reluctant to ask for financial support as made clear by the fact that the membership fee is so small. CSM is currently struggling to keep its operation afloat, and given that their main aim is to promote Christianity to people across the globe it would be very kind and appropriate to draw the attention of congregations to their plight. THEIR STATEMENT OF BELIEF: 'CSM exists to help Christians and non-Christians understand that we live in a created Universe. We believe that the Bible is the revealed word of God and that the teaching in Genesis is accurate. God created the material Universe and then He created organic life, culminating in the creation of mankind. He endowed men and women with souls and gave them free will. This allowed the first humans to go against God's instructions, leading to a fallen world. God sent his son, Jesus Christ, into the world to reunite us with Him. Jesus paid the penalty for man's rebellion and wrongdoing by dying on a Roman cross. We only have to turn to God and ask for forgiveness for Him to accept us. CSM rejects evolutionary teaching as it is false, misleading and unscientific. We endeavour to present the scientific evidence that shows the truth of God's word, that we live in a universe and world designed and created by God.' To get an idea of the work they are doing the following YouTube video on the Big Bang theory and other cosmological issues is addressed by Dr David Rosevear. The Big Bang theory and Darwinian Evolution are in tune with one another because they both require long ages: * * * The Big Bang defined: It was an event where 'nobody created everything from nothing'. How amazing is that, entirely plausible of course!
'Big Bang Theory of cosmology: Once upon a time there was nothing which became unstable and it exploded into everything. Wow!'
'Darwinian anthropology had been forced on public attention by numerous books in such a fashion as to create a belief that it was a certainly settled scientific truth. The fact that many eminent naturalists did not agree that Darwin's theory of species production had been sufficiently established as a truth was generally repressed. If there had been no creation, there was no need to assume any Creator; the chief basis for all religion was taken away and morality reduced to mere human expediency ... Today society witnesses to the effect of atheistic humanism which belief in the theory of evolution has brought fragmented family units, abortion, child abuse etc. In fact in all these intervening years the evidence has mounted up arguing that of course a Creator must have made this planet Earth and the heavens.'
This is a summary of some of the major arguments that the Genesis record must be taken as real historical events involving real people. Allegorical or mythological renderings result in massive theological difficulties.The importance of taking on board the message from ID
The impression we have been given up until now is that whilst the message from ID may be interesting it is not important enough to share with parishioners. If this is the case it is difficult to comprehend, and somewhat disturbing. What can be more important than revealing to people that, contrary to popular belief, the God of the Bible Created life including human beings just as He said He did? Can the Church any longer afford to ignore this crucial part of the Bible given the strong corroborative evidence now available in support of it?
Contemporary proponents of theistic evolution raise at least three significant challenges to traditional Christian theologyAn authority on the issues we are raising has said many people, especially in theological circles, believe the following: 'The Bible is a book of near fiction. They see the Bible stories as attempts by an ancient civilisation to rationalise their religious beliefs, to create a view of the world designed to keep the population under control, and to maintain cohesion through shared values. The so called creation myth is part of this: the story of Adam and Eve is seen as an attempt to explain the existence of Homo Sapiens in a theistic framework for people with no scientific knowledge.' If there really are members of the clergy who hold these views they should hang their head in shame, and immediately resign from the profession, as they will be holding office under false pretences. Breathing life into the Creation story ->  (sorry about the belly buttons but authentic images of the famous two are hard to find) Please use the feedback facility at the bottom of this page to contribute to the origins debate. Without feedback we risk losing focus, and out of ignorance could end up being accused of 'preaching to the converted'.
Evolution is a belief system, an alternative religion that denies the word of God recorded in the Bible.This relatively new religion is taught in the schools and Universities. Creationism, the word of God by contrast is banned. Little wonder that faith in the Christian God is in steep decline. The Church is doing nothing to address this and likes to pretend the issue is of little consequence and best ignored. I wonder what God thinks about this attitude that relegates Him to a place of complete insignificance!
These recorded events show that at a glance He could manipulate the Laws of Physics and Chemistry to achieve a required end result. This is clear evidence that He (God) has the extraordinary power required to be The Creator of all things great and small, as unambiguously stated in Genesis. Add the miracles evidence to the discoveries from molecular biology and the case for Creationism becomes rock solid!
So are there any consequences if we fail to act? Well, yes there are. Morality is being eroded in society. This is evidenced by increasing violence on our streets. Misogyny is becoming rife; certainly a lack of respect for women is evidenced by attacks on them continually reported in the press. This unacceptable attitude and behaviour is even becoming commonplace amongst our Politicians. We have now (2nd November 2022) been warned by His Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary, Fire and Rescue Services that thousands of corrupt officers have probably slipped through the net, with a culture of misogyny, sexism and predatory behaviour now prevalent in many forces. What has this got to do with the Church you might ask? Well, it is further evidence that the message of Christianity is falling into decline for the simple reason that it is not being heard by an ever increasing proportion of the population. Social media companies have done virtually nothing to limit access to pornography and other undesirable content including information on how to commit suicide, because it would result in lost business. Breakdown in law and order is attributable at least in part to greatly reduced Church attendance. We are here to help the Church dispel doubts in its mind about the Genesis story so that it can move forward with confidence, and place the Genesis account, and other related areas of the Bible, back on the agenda! This change should over time help restore faith, and bring people back into the Churches where they will receive good, Bible based, moral teaching once more. There is a desperate need for it!
A biblical worldview is a view of the world which seeks to answer life's biggest questions from the teachings of the Bible. Research in a new book from veteran Christian researcher George Barna shows that just 36% of 13 and 14-year-olds believe that God exists and is the all-knowing, all-powerful creator of the universe.
For those who believe the Church does uphold the principles laid down in the Bible we would like to remind them of the pressures being exerted right now on the Church by some of its leaders who are hell-bent on re-writing Gods precepts. As an illustration, the Church of Scotland has a disconnect between its ecclesiastical leaders and its members. The former are not overly bothered by church decline. For them, the church is about politics and power, not size and conversion, or Biblical truth. A similar attitude prevails in other denominations including certain elements of the C of E. I wonder what God thinks of it all?:
The goal of the Save the Parish network is a Church of England where Parishes are at the core, with clergy, financial security and local strength.
To date, no growing church has adopted same-sex marriage. All of these denominations hold firm to historic Christianity. Indeed they are all evangelical in doctrine. Additionally, they have statements that affirm marriage as between a man and woman only - the historical and Biblical position. At last we have some GOOD NEWS. Today, 18th January 2023 the Church of England has decided against allowing same-sex marriages to take place in its Churches. We need to thank the Bishops, and the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby for making this stand. However it should be pointed out that Christian Concern the campaign group that supports traditional Christian beliefs regards offering Church blessings to same-sex couples as a capitulation. LGBT+ will not stop until it succeeds in pursuading the Church to agree to same-sex marriages and that is the next step.
We have included this as further evidence that the heirarchy of the C of E is out of touch with its parishioners, and increasingly only interested in appeasing pressure groups. Traditional Bible based, Christian morality has been thrown out the window in order to move with the times. Issues such as ID and Genesis are trivial pursuits that are of no consequence to anyone. Justin Welby is in danger of leading the C of E down a very slippery slope with its progressive Christianity! It is not popular with the rank and file, but he doesn't seem to care, or does he? Christian Concern the campaign group that supports traditional Christian beliefs regards offering Church blessings to same-sex couples as a capitulation. LGBT+ will not stop until it succeeds in pursuading the Church to agree to same-sex marriages and that this is just around the corner.
Returning to our core objective:
Our intention is not to attack people, but ideas - albeit really silly ideas. But, if you discover as you read that you are guilty of some of the fallacious thinking that we gently poke fun of below, perhaps you might take this opportunity to reconsider holding beliefs which so easily lend themselves to such fun-poking. We are here to help.
We would on request put together a framework for an easy to deliver sermon explaining the implications stemming from Intelligent Design (ID) research. The public are constantly cajoled, through repeated exposure to evolutionary thinking in the press and on TV, into believing life evolved over long ages . Being continually fed a diet of Darwinism has severely eroded the Gospel message, and few people take it seriously anymore. The Church is the best placed institution for challening this God denying ideology. We would not charge for this service and would be prepared to adapt it on advice from Churches to more precisely meet requirements. All feedback is welcome.
Information drives the development of life. But what is the source of that information? Could it have been produced by an unguided Darwinian process? Or did it require intelligent design? The Information Enigma is a fascinating 21-minute documentary that probes the mystery of biological information, the challenge it poses to orthodox Darwinian theory, and the reason it points to intelligent design.
The probability that over time random mutations in DNA sequences, the driving force of Neo-Darwinian evolution, could produce a single new functional protein (a relatively simple one involving only 150 amino acids) is 1 in 10 to the power 77 (1 functional protein and 10 to the power 77 failures). Given that the human body utilises up to 80,000 different proteins and this is only a small part of the requirement for building a living organism the likelyhood that Neo-Darwinian Evolution is the mechanism for generating life is inconceivably small. This argument of course assumes that a section of DNA 150 amino acids long was made available in the first place, an even less likely occurence than the chance of hitting on a new functional protein by random mutations occuring within it over time
Excellent youtube video in which scientists argue the case for rejecting Theistic Evolution as an explanation for the origin of life
Dr Sarfati, a Ph.D. chemist, explores some of the most-cited "explanations" of biochemical evolution, and shows how they point to a Creator, not "time and chance".
Every day, your body must solve hundreds of hard engineering problems simultaneously, or else you'll die. In the book, Your Designed Body, systems engineer Steve Laufmann and physician Howard Glicksman explore this extraordinary system of thousands of ingenious and interdependent engineering solutions that impact your heart, your lungs, your feet, your eyes and ears, and more.
God designed our amazing body putting in place mechanisms to protect us from harm throughout our lives. Neutrophil granulocytes represent around 60 percent of all white blood cells and are an essential part of the innate immune system.
Our desire is to keep faith with this inheritance as members of the Church of England and to remain in full communion with those Provinces of the Anglican Communion who also maintain the biblical and historic teaching of the church catholic
Africa defies Western assault on family values Judy Green interview with Tony Rucinski from C4M. These assaults stem from societies increasing tendency to reject God's perfect plan for our lives, and sadly the West is at the helm.
Mr Loder criticised the Archbishop of Canterbury's response to the concerns of
parliamentarians "on a number of issues", but said that Archbishop Welby "doesn't even bother to reply to the letters".
GOOD FOR HIM, since this is none of the Governments business! The C of E must continue to ignore the demands of anti-Christian MP's
hell-bent on bringing the Church into disrepute.
This Christian parent governor was axed for questioning school's sex ed policy.
You may wonder why we have included links to articles on transgenderism and LGBT rights on our website. Perhaps we should reiterate that the main aim of this website is to encourage the Church in particular to ignore its detractors, return to its roots and give credence once more to much neglected areas of scripture. At the heart of the Bible, the most significant part of it in our opinion, is the Genesis account of Creation. God stated unambiguously that He Created human beings male and female (Adam and Eve) to enable family units to be built, maintained, and thrive producing future generations. Those promoting LGBT ideology in society are acting in opposition to God's wishes, undermining his perfect plan for us. The Bible makes clear in various places in the Bible that homosexual relationships are a perversion, a rejection, of what God intended. Such individuals do not afford Him the honour and respect He deserves for His act of Creation, because if they did they would acknowledge and accept the sex they were born with and live their lives accordingly. Allowing LGBT activists into schools equipped with learning materials for RSE from Stonewall is promoting an anti-Christian creed, and will serve to damage the health and integrity of future generations. Children should not be exposed to LGBT ideology and the authorities permitting these events to take place are clearly driven by anti-Christian attitudes, a practice which poses a serious threat to the well-being of young people in their care.

This is the scandal of LGBT Youth, a Scottish charity, promoting homosexuality and
transgenderism in Scottish primary schools. We've dug down to find what's behind their extraordinary fascination with other
people's children. Sadly, we find the new First Minister, John Swinney, a university professor and a church pastor at the
heart of it.
The linked to page has been set up to give members of the clergy and other visitors the opportunity to anonymously critique our claim that life came about via an Act of Creation as stated in Genesis rather than by God denying evolution over billions of years. Your views will immediately be made available to our readers.
