This is Ken Ham, CEO of the apologetics ministry of Answers in Genesis, Creation Museum, and Ark Encounter.
All this week we’ve seen that creation and evolution don’t mix. And here’s one final reason. In Genesis we read that God’s creation was “very good”—there was no death, including death by animals eating one another. You see, originally mankind and the animals were created vegetarian! Genesis says God gave them the green plants for food.
And yet we find examples in the fossil record of animals eating each other. If this fossil record is millions of years old, then for millions of years animals were eating each other and yet God said they were vegetarian. It doesn’t make sense!
No, we can’t add evolution to the Bible.
