Second Look Seminars / Faith and Science Sabbath School
About this original series
Sabbath school class held weekly on the campus of Loma Linda University in Loma Linda, California. Topics covered include the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) integration of faith and belief in the Bible into everyday scientific endeavors. Books are reviewed and many relevant scientific topics are evaluated and reassessed (preferentially looking at raw data when available). Speakers include Paul Giem, Ariel Roth, Brian Bull, Jim Gibson, Ben Clausen, Tim Standish, Warren Johns, Sean Pitman, and many others. Some are associated with the Geoscience Research Institute (GRI) while others simply have a personal desire for finding truth within all the surrounding error, assumptions, and presuppositions. Other interesting recordings can be found at: ItsAboutGod.tv

Tennessee has just followed Louisiana's example by enacting a law that allows for teaching the controversy about certain politically charged scientific subjects. Some claim there is no controversy over evolution. A thoughtful evaluation of the arguments suggests that what we have is a controversy over religion rather than science.

Paul Giem on Flood Stories and Genesis 4-14-2012
The Genesis Flood story is often alleged to be a copy of the flood story in the Epic of Gilgamesh. The Atra-Hasis epic, the Eridu Genesis epic, and another early Flood story from Sumer are compared with Genesis, which appears to be closest to the earliest account.
