Lesson Plans Critical Thinking and Logic (Longview Community College) Papers Evolution and Creationism (Theatres of Learning - Dalby and Stewart) Provides a description of the scientific method and shows how the theory of evolution follows it. Shows that the "new earth" version of creationism violates the scientific method to reach its conclusions. Argues that, because the new earth version of scientific creationism violates the scientific method, it is not a scientific approach to discovering truth. Points out that belief in a creator is not in conflict with science, but some arguments of new earth creationism are in conflict with science. Editor's Note - The authors claim (in the introduction) to be taking an impartial approach. This is only true if the question is "Which approach, evolution or new earth creationism, conforms better with science?" The essay argues that the scientific method, not religious beliefs, should be the basis for comparing the theory of evolution with new earth creationism. However, new earth creationists would argue that the Bible should be the basis for comparison. 9-02 Logic - Uses and Misuses of Logic (Theatres of Learning - Dalby and Stewart) Provides types of logic and misuses of logic, with the theory of evolution as the example of how logic can be used and misused. 9-02
