Fact Or Fiction
...ncoming solar radiation and extraterrestrial debris, preserving acceptable temperatures ranges while avoiding fatal extremes of heat and cold, and providing the necessary amount of oxygen for respiration. The Earth’s atmosphere contains a magnetic field that protects us not only from cosmic bombardments from high frequency waves but also facilitates cellular communication and directional location. Earth is roughly about ninety-three miles away from the sun; this is the perfect distance to sustain life. If the Earth was a little bit closer or further away from the sun, then it would be uninhabitable. The angle of the Earth’s axis is also perfect. Without the tilt of the axis we would not have four different seasons. The Earth is designed perfectly in every aspect of life. To think that this could just happen by chance or by some random explosion would be illogical. According to the evolutionary theory, deposits of coal take millions of years to form. Evolutionists will say that this is evidence against creation. The truth is that these coal deposits did not take millions of years to form but formed rapidly; concluding that the Earth is much younger than what the evolutionists teach. Creationists have researched this in order to prove a young Earth. The formation of coal has been proven to be a quick process that can be replicated in a matter of days. The following factors must be present in order for coal to be formed: pressure, temperature, water, time, and vegetation. Evolution teaches that the slow accumulation and decomposition of vegetation living in past ages accounts for the coal seams. This theory does not answer why such large amounts of original vegetation without soil is found in areas that are now coal seams, or how coal seams are so thick. Robert Gentry, a creation scientist, analyzed coalified wood found on the Colorado Plateau to determine how long i...
