Is Genesis History? - Is there Evidence for Noah's Flood?
The best scientific documentary I have found helping answer such questions...
As Orthodox Christians, we trust in the accuracy of Holy Scripture, and in the consensus teaching of Orthodox Saints throughout history. This position is clearly set forth in the seminal three-volume set, Orthodox Teachings on Creation and the Theory of Evolution, which is currently being translated into English.
Understandably, many of us still wonder, “Yes, but what about the scientific evidence?” We don’t want to elevate scientific reasoning over the authority of the Scriptures or the Saints. But we still have a lot of respect for science, and we would feel uncomfortable if encountered with scientific evidence which contradicted our deeply held beliefs.
Thankfully, there is an excellent documentary available, which is top notch. The film is produced by Protestants, but the film doesn’t really focus on Protestant distinctives. Rather, they focus on the central question at hand — Is Genesis history? — Can the Bible and the Saints be trusted when they talk about Noah’s Flood?
This documentary is high-quality, very well produced, and replete with sober minded reasoning. With your own eyes, you will see powerful scientific evidence that Noah’s flood is a historical event — a helpful reminder that the Scriptures and the Saints are indeed trustworthy.
I would like to talk with You, Fr. Joe. It concerns the A.V. Project(s).
