Addenda for two high school science textbooks: 
   GENERAL SCIENCE by Watkins, Emiliani, Chiaverina, Harper, LaHart 
   (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Publishers, 1989), and
   MODERN BIOLOGY by Albert Towle (Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1989).
These textbooks are in use in Louisiana public schools and may also be in 
other states.

	BY WAY OF EXPLANATION
	This presentation is not intended to be a complete discussion of the 
evidence for creation but rather a supplement to the aforementioned textbooks 
GENERAL SCIENCE and MODERN BIOLOGY. It presents the scientific creation 
position on the textbook subjects relating to origins so that the classroom 
teachers do not have to make a presentation on material in an area where they 
have little or no background. This material is presented at a level that is 
consistent with the student's background. Reference to the textbook must be 
made in order to get a clear picture of the evolutionary perspective on the 
subject being discussed. If more information is desired on a particular 
subject, please contact the author.

	INTRODUCTION
	Most General Science and Biology textbooks present the origin of life 
from only a single viewpoint. They fail to acknowledge that there are two 
major scientific theories of origins - evolution and creation. Only scientific 
aspects of creation and evolution will be examined since they are furthest 
apart in concept and all other origin theories are some combination of these 
two. The textbooks present only evolutionary concepts, so the material 
furnished here will rebut these concepts from a creationist perspective.
	This presentation will show where and why creation scientists do not 
agree with all of the ideas on origins presented in the textbooks General 
Science and Modern Biology cited above. The facts presented by the textbook 
authors are accepted by creation scientists. However, they come to different 
conclusions because there are additional facts not presented in the textbooks 
which cannot be overlooked. These additional facts support another theory to 
explain the observed facts - creation.
