Eden Immunity?

 Hi Dr. Jackson, I have a question that I thought you'd be able to answer for me :-)
My understanding is that when God created all living things including Adam and Eve and put them in the Garden of Eden there were no diseases or death. All humans [descended from] Adam and Eve are born with a highly complex immune system.
Did God create Adam and Eve with and immune system? If yes, then what did they need it for?

Could it have come about after The Fall by means of micro-evolution?
I hope you can help me!  Kind regards and God bless, Tommy

Science Fraud and Evolution: two close friends!

Scientists in our time, have been granted the status of effectively being the "High Priests" of knowledge and truth.  This would be okay -- if -- scientists were still as highly concerned about the staying objective and sticking to a search for the pure truth, as they had been in the centuries past.  Nowadays, money and fame and publications and endowed chairmanships and funding grants from the National Science Foundation ... seem to be all that matters.  Yes ... our "objective" science community ... has a large infestation of ... politicians and goldbrickers!  Kinda makes it hard to know whether to trust any of the "official facts" that they disseminate ... or not ... doesn't it?!
 

The Piltdown Man was not the last of the scientific frauds put up in the favor of Darwinian evolution.  Evolutionists are just so --eager-- to find evidence that ... they seem to follow the maxim of "I wouldn't have seen it if I hadn't believed it!"  Actually, with the Piltdown "missing link" bones, found near the home of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle ... was also found in the same dirt-pit ... a cricket bat.  Nobody seemed to care that the perpetrator ... had actually a sense of humor in tipping his hand to the discoverers ... so total was their faith in Darwin's Dark Delusion.  That was in 1912.  But later, in 1999, a dino-bird missing link made the world news for evolution-lovers.  Only a few months later, it was found to be a total fake ... and ... was immediately christened "Piltdown Bird" in honor of the most famous evo-fake of all time.  But it does make one wonder ... if it took 40 yrs to uncover the Piltdown fake ... what if the "missing link" fossils found in our museums and textbooks ... just haven't ripened to become registered lies yet, in the eyes of the scientific community?  Hmm?!

 

Yeah, I just --had-- to let you know about that last bit about the Harvard evolutionary scientist ... lest you think that I had been stretching it a bit ... me making such a strong connection-accusation between evolutionary belief / devotion and the willingness to commit scientific fraud.  It seems clear, what the Bible has always said, "Sin begats sins."   This is still true and always will be.  And for those who don't believe the Bible ... how 'bout William Shakespeare?  "Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive."  Amen and Amen.

Distances to the Stars?

Dr. J,

How is distance to stars and other planets determined?  I know it is measured in light-years, but how is that determined?  If radar or sonar or anything similar were used, it would take longer than we would live to bounce back to us.  Could those stars and planets actually be closer than we thought? God bless you, Dennis in OK

Hey brother Dennis!

The stars are surely thousands of light years away, and the other galaxies even billions away. There's no threat to Biblical authority on that, whether on age of the earth or Big Bang Theory or whatever.  Only the closest stars can be accurately measured in their distances from Earth.  We do this by "trigonometric parallax."  We take a look at where in the sky a star appears from the vantage point of Earth ... then we wait half a year until Earth is on the other side of the Sun (a difference of nearly 200 million miles) and then we take a look at it again.  The more different its location seems, compared to the relatively fixed apparent location of the more distant stars ... then the closer it is to us.

You can try this yourself right now, by using the distance between your own two eyes in substitution for the distance of Earth in spring to Earth in fall around the sun.  Just hold up your finger in front of both eyes, and look at it against a relatively distant background.  Now close only your right eye -- then only your left eye -- left-right-left-right.  See it?  And the closer your finger is to your face, the more it will appear to have moved in its location relative to the distant background. 

However, parallax can only use a gigantic triangle to measure the distance of stars no farther than 4.5 light years away.  Most are much further than that.  The rest are figured using "stellar evolution" theory to predict the size and brightness of a star ... then to look at how much smaller and dimmer it looks from here ... to gauge how far away it must be.  True, this is flawed.  Seyfert-variable stars are used to gauge the distance of even stars in other galaxies.  These and super-nova explosions are more reliable.  But the distances really are as great as the textbooks say.  The "main sequence" on the H-R Diagram, however (all put together from Big Bang Theory and Stellar Evolution Theory), is a non-proven yet taught-as-fact concept.  I hope this helps.  Say "hi" from all of us at Creation Truth Foundation to all of the brothers and sisters on the campus and at the church!  Sincerely yours, Dr Jackson

Folks, please excuse the shaky camera etc ... our offices got hit by a bad windstorm here in OK, which damaged our roof and let in a lot of water.  I'm still not back into my regular office for a few weeks and so ... hence the "low-tech" look -- and sound (turn it up real high) -- to this vid-answer.

God bless ... and thanks for your patience ... Dr Jackson

 

Hey DrJ,

My dad was reading the book of Matthew and noticed that, even though Matthew says there were 14 generations between the captivity and Jesus, if you count them, he only lists 13. I know the Bible is infallible and cannot contradict itself, but I would be grateful for an answer to this.

God bless, Andy

Dear Andy, 

Perhaps he was counting the original name as one of the generations.  We do this in statistics too ... we ask for how many data points are in the list and then we calculate    n - 1  for the number of data points always.  It depends on whether you count like Adam as his own generation for instance ... or if you only say that his offspring are the F-1 generation.  See what I mean?  Count the first person in the list or count the standing generation at the time of the captivity ... I'll bet that makes it work out.  It's like the brazen laver in the Temple thing ... the measurements in the Bible seem to refute Pi as being 3.0 ... until ... you realize that it says that the metal it was made of was "a hand's breadth" in thickness.  Add that in and ... you get the 3.12459 that is expected!  Amen.  I hope this helps Andy.  Say "hi" to your parents for me.  Your friend, Dr Jackson

The Truth -- worth it?

How can somebody be a "half" Bible-believer or a "half" Christian? Well, what about those folks that claim not be be atheists nor God-believers ... the so-called "agnostics?"
Everybody today seems to think that you shouldn't get "too enthusiastic" about ... well, anything. What rubbish! Jesus said to get enthusiastic totally about the Kingdom of Heaven. David was certainly an enthusiastic man ... even when he was doing wrong! And God called him a man after His own heart. 'Ever wonder why?
Even famous evo-atheist Sith Richard Dawkins ... has mocked the half-Bible-believers. You see, atheists can smell a hypocrite a mile away. So could the Lord, when He was here in bodily form (and He --still-- can) and He told'em all so, too, when the times were right for the tellin'!
Don't be a half-Christian. Don't be a half-Bible-believer. Hey, don't be a half -- anything!
"The Bible, the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible ... so help me God."
I might also say it this way ...
"The Savior, the whole Savior, and nothing but the Savior ... so help me God."
or I could go with the common courtroom phraseology ... but still applying it to the One who said that He indeed is ... the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
"The Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth ... so help me God." Amen

"No Intelligent Life Down Here?"

Hey Dr. J! All the rave on the online news forums are about a major milestone in discovering earth's 'twin' as in a planet which supports life. Do you think there's any plausibility of actually finding it? Or is it just to be regarded as the evo's usual garbage? James


Scores of "pictures" of extrasolar Earth-like planets ... have been published in many sources, but none of them is anything more than an "artist conception" of the planet in question!


The latest "class M planet" touted up before this month, was the one just a few months ago in September in the New York Times -- also an artist conception. You should click on the link at the end of this post to see the video and read the report that I made on the discovery ... at that time.
This, folks -- is the only existing photograph of any planet outside our solar system, until now. As you can see, such images do not show anywhere --near-- the "detail" of the artist conceptions. It seems that "science" has moved out of the facts/evidence business and is now fully-vested in the -- Urban Myth business!! These evo-important myths ... have been sustained by huge media-help for the past 50 yrs ... and it's getting exponentially worse all the time!


Here's a diagram created from the Infra-Red images of the three planets and their star, lest you missed them in the frame above. (taken at the Keck Observatory)


Here is a computer color-enhanced image of the same photograph. It doesn't help much, either. Evo's are only too happy to have us envisioning vast numbers of intelligent civilizations all across the galaxy ... all in the name of claiming -- "See! Evolution --is-- true! Life is -- everywhere!"
When they haven't in reality found it -- ANYwhere (but here, of course)! Sigh.
