Dr.
David Menton
Talk 1: Lucy, She’s No Lady
Talk 2: Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
Date: April 11th, 7:00pm
Rocky Mountain Creation Fellowship is privileged to have back as our April speaker, Dr. David Menton from Answers in Genesis. Although he has impressive academic credentials, Dr. Menton is nevertheless able to communicate the truths of Creation effectively to many age ranges. Dr. Menton was the professor of anatomy at Washington University in St. Louis. He has joined AIG as a full time speaker and also contribute articles to AiG’s Answers magazine.
Dr. Menton was awarded "Professor of the Year" in 1998 while associate professor of anatomy at the respected Washington University School of Medicine and is now a professor emeritus. He holds a PhD in cell biology from an Ivy League school, Brown University. For almost two decades he has been profiled in American Men and Women of Science - a “Biographical Directory of Today’s Leaders in Physical, Biological and Related Sciences.”
Audiences of all ages enjoy Dr. Menton’s well-illustrated (and often humorous) presentations on a variety of fascinating topics, such as the human body, feathers and birds, and the Scopes trial. Since AiG's Creation Museum opened in 2007, he has been interviewed by several media outlets, including ABC-TV's World News Tonight with Charles Gibson, January 2008
Dr. Menton will be speaking twice on Friday evening. His first talk will be Lucy She’s No Lady. Confused about the discovery of Lucy, a “missing link” between monkeys and humans? Anatomist Dr. David Menton leaves no doubt that the famous “Lucy” fossils belong to a knuckle-walking, apelike creature … who was not a lady! Lucy is exhibit “A” for evolutionists when they are pressed to offer proof that humans descended from ape-like creatures. Dr. Menton’s easy-to-understand talk exposes the massive problems with “Lucy” being the missing link. Along the way he also will shed light on other “ape-man” claims. You will be convinced that the origin of humans is best explained by the One who was there at the beginning, our Creator God.
Dr. Menton’s second talk of the evening will be Fearfully and Wonderfully Made. The question is not “when life begins”, but “when does a person begin?” His talk explains from anatomical science and biology the truth of Psalm 139:13-16, which says that God weaves us together in the womb. This illustrated lecture also reveals the amazing and intricate design of the womb and the process of fertilization, implantation, embryonic development and birth itself. He will show that each of these is a series of miracles (irreducible complexities) that cannot be explained by chance and random processes
Dr. Menton’s talks cause a lot of controversy with evolutionists, so bring a fellow evolutionist friend to the meeting. There will be refreshments after the meeting in our fellowship hall and there is no cost for this engagement. If you are interested in becoming a member of RMCF, please call RMCF at (303) 525-5500 or email us at [email protected]. DVD’s will be made of Dr. Menton’s talks and will be available that evening. Hope to see you all there.
