“Universities Say Earth is Entering a New Period of Extinction”

Professors at some U.S. universities are warning that the earth is entering a new period of extinction. They say that creatures are going extinct at alarming rates. Gerardo Ceballos, lead author of a study by Stanford, Princeton, and Berkeley, says, "We are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event. If it is allowed to continue, life would take many millions of years to recover and our species itself would likely disappear early on" ("Earth 'entering new extinction phrase,'" BBC News, June 20, 2015). The scientists are calling for "intensive conservation," but this type of thing is ridiculous at multiple levels. First, if life is a product of blind evolution, it has no meaning or purpose. Man would have no more ultimate meaning or importance than a slug. Second, the alleged previous mass extinctions were not manmade, since man did not exist then according to the evolutionary timetable, and could not have been prevented. If evolution is true, some event will eventually destroy the world, whether it be warming, cooling, drought or deluge. Third, man has not shown himself capable of solving any of the world's big problems, such as war, crime, poverty, disease, and death. Man cannot save himself, let alone the earth. (The first three supposed Mass Extinctions--Ordovician-Sirurian, Late Devonian, Permian-- probably all occurred during the global Flood of Noah's day. When the bogus evolutionary dating systems are rejected as the fallible "science" they are, these "mass extinctions," which consist of massive fossil beds, are powerful evidence for the biblical Flood.)
