The launch of a Creation Theology Society (CTS) was announced at the annual Origins conference, which had record attendance when it moved online.
The CTS aims ‘to develop a community of Biblical scholarship that initiates and undergirds interdisciplinary creation research’.
Origins, held by the Creation Biology Society and Creation Geology Society, gave a unique opportunity to engage with the cutting edge of creationist research at its most positive: building young-age creation models rather than simply criticising evolutionary ones.
Among others, the conference had presentations on the language of time in the flood account, and palaeontologist Dr Kurt Wise (Truett-McConnell) gave a foundational talk on the philosophy of science (besides presentations on genetic redundancy and chromosome 2 fusion). A whole day was devoted to baraminology, the relatively new science of the created kind, as mentioned in Genesis.
