Speaker: Dr. Matthew McLain
Topic: This Little Moschops Went to Market:
    Exploring what the Fingers and Toes of
    Non-Mammalian Synapsids Tell Us About
    their Relationship to Mammals
Time: 6:45
Type: Live In Person Presentation

Non-mammalian synapsids, often called "mammal-like reptiles," are a group of extinct creatures that have been considered transitional between reptile-like animals and mammals, with some evolutionists even referring to this transitional sequence as the "crown jewel of evolution." Previous creationist research has presented evidence for discontinuity within this group, suggesting it is actually made up of multiple created kinds. However, there are still patterns that require investigation, one of which is the fascinating variation in non-mammalian synapsid digits. Some of these animals have finger and toes bones more like mammals, some more like reptiles, and some unlike both. These digit patterns have been argued to be evidence of the transition from a reptile-like ancestor to mammals, but is that really the case? Join us to see whether the evolutionary narrative holds water and how these patterns might be better understood in a creationist paradigm.
Dr. Matthew McLain is a vertebrate paleontologist and the Chair of the Department of Biological and Physical Sciences at The Master's University, where he teaches as Associate Professor of Biology and Geology. Dr. McLain received his B.S. in geology from Cedarville University in Ohio and his Ph.D. in Earth Sciences from Loma Linda University in California. As president of the Creation Biology Society, he helps to organize the annual Origins technical conference, which joins together the Creation Biology Society, Creation Geology Society, and Creation Theology Society. He is published in both the conventional and creationist literature. Dr. McLain is married to Jessica, and they have four kids: Alaric, Cody, Iris, and Soren.

Movie: Genesis Impact
Time: 5:30

Millions of people stream into Natural History Museums every year where they are presented the idea that life evolved on earth over millions of years. Is there a different view? Yes, there certainly is, and we believe the Bible presents the viewpoint about origins and earth's history that actually fits the evidence. This movie takes on the leading 12 evolutionary icons presented in museums: the Human-Chimp 99% Myth, key ape-to-human icons like Ardipithecus ramidus, "Lucy" the Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Neanderthals, Darwin's Finches, the fossil record and transitional forms, Continental drift and Pangea, Dinosaurs, Whale Evolution, Historical vs. Observational Science, and Deep Time based on Radiometric Dating. Staged as an interaction between a secular museum docent and a well-versed creationist, the actors go head-to-head on contrasting views over these major evolutionary icons.
