The Young Earth Creation movement claim that the Bible and science show that the world is only a little over 6000 years old. In the first of two debates Justin Brierley hears from a leading UK "young earther" who claims that the rock and fossil record were laid down by the flood of Noah, and a paleontologist who argues that science is clear that they were laid down over millions of years of evolutionary history.
Andy Macintosh is Professor of Thermodynamics and Combustion Theory at the University of Leeds. He is a leading British Young Earth Creationist. He debates with Robert Asher, a paleontologist at the Museum of Zoology in Cambridge, and the author of “Evolution and belief: Confessions of a religious paleontologist”.
