We are using Thinkwell Biology this year. The teacher is a Darwin "disciple", and teaches evolution as if believing anything else just doesn't make sense. I'm not going to abandon the course, because my kids are teens and need to know that there are people who feel as passionate about evolution as we do about God. But, I want to show them that the same observations point to God creating the world. Any suggestions?
There are some resources online, too... some paid, some free. On my way out the door, so I'll let you search through these for videos or whatever. Some resources are text, power point, or outline. http://www.icr.org/ http://www.bible.ca/tracks/debunked.htm (I know the guy who owns this site. Wonderful scientist!) http://www.whybaptism.org/CreationVideos.htm http://www.bestbiblescience.org/ http://www.apologeticspress.org/ http://www.whybaptism.org/Creation-HTML/NoahArk.htm http://www.creationism.org/
I 3rd AiG, great resource. Ken Ham is the go-to guy for creationism and a wonderful speaker, even my 8 year old will listen to audio of his presentations without video. There is also a 3 part series we watched some of a couple of years ago that was AWESOME call Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution (We watched it on Netflix I think) And I 2nd http://www.bible.ca/ I also like http://www.creationtoday.org/watch-videos/ I've watched some good stuff on creationism on the http://amazingdiscoveries.org/ channel. http://www.presenttruthmag.com/ http://www.youtube.com/genesisveracity (website http://genesisveracityfoundation.com) http://www.creatia.org/introtwo.htm http://creation.com/creation-videos
AIG was my first thought. http://scienceagainstevolution.info/index.shtml Not videos, but some interesting reading.
We just watched a couple of answersingenesis.org videos on demand. My daughter has said several times while watching the evolution lessons that his assumptions didn't make sense. Just a couple minutes into the AIG video, both my kids said that makes sense. Thanks everyone for reminding me about them. We plan to watch many more videos throughout the year.
I was going to suggest the Incredible Creatures That Defy Evolution set too. You can watch it on vimeo.com for free with a "basic" account
Depending on your specific objections to the lessons on evolution (scientific or ideological), I'd suggest spending some time at the Biologos site. This is where top scientists, who are also evangelical Christians, frame evolution in the context of a creator. Personally, I like to use the term 'guided evolution', because that better describes the matter. Francis Collins is a leading member, as is Darrell Falk, and both are very respected individuals in their scientific disciplines. Do bear in mind that evolution is defined as the emergence of complex life forms from simple life forms. It does not address the emergence of life, the existence of the universe, etc. This is important, because AiG totally confuses this point.
