Back Cover of Genesis Modeled

Genesis Modeled: The Catastrophic Case for a Young Earth invites exploration of Earth’s ancient narrative through the framework of scientific modeling. Scientific models aren’t swayed by reputation or worldview; instead, they adhere to strict, impartial standards that bypass entrenched doctrines and challenge deeply rooted convictions.

Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking championed a model-dependent view of reality, urging us to favor testable frameworks over sensory perceptions of historical norms. If a model withstands scrutiny, we must embrace it, regardless of our prior suppositions. The establishment of the Standard Model of Physics highlights this principle.

Drawing from this insight, Robert Mihin tests two competing models: the prevailing 4.5-billion-year paradigm, rooted in gradual processes and radiometric timelines, and the Catastrophic and Abrupt model - often called the Genesis Model. And the outcome is clear; the Genesis Model prevails, while the traditional framework collapses under a wave of internal inconsistencies.

In its pursuit of truth, academia has inadvertently undermined its own functional narrative. This book transcends mere rhetoric and mass acceptance; it’s a call to let modeling principles rigorously interrogate the scientific worldview we’ve long accepted. Deeply ingrained views are stubbornly held - it’s often said that “Science advances one funeral at a time.” But applying the Hawking method to the science of creation can help us overcome our stubbornness and deepen our understanding of creation. We can now scientifically verify the timeless truth in Genesis.
