ARTICLES IN OPPOSITION TO CREATIONISM
Lorence G. Collins
There are fourteen articles in this web site that discuss various aspects of creationists' theories concerning literal readings of the Bible or supernatural explanations, and each of these is demonstrated to have originated by natural processes or to have a modern science interpretation. Among these articles are three that present my own Christian philosophy, numbers 8, 11, and 12. Choose a link to each article.

For a link to a website that expresses a view of a Christian that opposes creationism, see: http://www.theistic-evolution.com/index.html. His section on "My story" is particularly interesting.
For a link to a website authored by a person who was a believer, became an atheist, but changed his mind and decided that there is a Creator, see: http://www.geocities.com/skepticsweb/. He offers some challenging thoughts to both the Christian and the atheist. His essay "Apology" is especially meaningful.
