The dawn of creation at LMC

Can a club to discuss creationist science coexist with evolutionists on a college campus?

Apparently so, at least at Lake Michigan College, where a small group of students has been meeting to talk about alternatives to the accepted scientific view of how the earth formed and life began.

The Creationist Club has the blessing, if not the shared beliefs, of the chair of the natural sciences department, and the support of at least one faculty member who is a self-described creationist.

“I think evolution is more of a hypothesis than a theory,” said LMC student Jeremy Walker of Stevensville, who started the club about a month ago.

[…]

Walker then turned to Fran Miles, another biology instructor, who turned out to be a kindred spirit.

“There are two creationists in the science department,” Miles said. “I am one of them.”

The other prefers to remain anonymous, Miles said.

Miles follows the departmental policy that only evolution is to be taught in the classroom.

Among her colleagues, “I just don’t bring it up,” Miles said.

She emphasizes a scientific, rather than an emotional or religious, approach to the subject.

“It’s important for students to use the scientific method, whether they believe in evolution or not,” Miles said. “Even creationists need to know the basics of evolution.”

That’s what she learned in school, accepting the tenets of Darwin’s studies and subsequent research in evolution. But the more she learned, the more she began to have doubts.

For Miles, life on Earth is too complex and the odds of its occurring randomly are too high not to have been guided by a higher power.

Even the laws of thermodynamics seem to be against natural selection, she said. “Bodies go from order to disorder - not the other way around.”
