In the Foreword, Henry M. Morris writes “that there are many good scientific evidences pointing to special creation, a young earth, and the global Flood, and these have been persuasively advanced by creationist scientists in debates, seminars, and conferences for many years and with great results.  But the compelling and definitive evidences are biblical, not scientific.” Why is this observation true? Because “No one has ever observed any genuine evolution taking place (macro-evolution) in the thousands of years of recorded history --- so it is certainly not a part of observational science (and real science should involve observation and repetition) .... Furthermore, despite certain disputable claims, no one has ever demonstrated an authentic evolutionary transitional series among all the billions of fossils preserved in the sedimentary rocks of the earth’s crust.”
