The Galapagos Islands are inextricably linked to Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution by means of natural selection. The islands’ birds, reptiles, and even plants, are promoted as “Exhibit A” in the case for evolution. How, then, should Biblical creationists respond to these assertions? What is the true meaning of Galapagos and its mockingbirds, finches, giant tortoises, and iguanas? Dr. Keith Swenson, Adjunct Professor of Natural Sciences at Multnomah University, takes us on a voyage to the Galapagos Islands, by means of beautiful PowerPoint images. He will show that Darwin’s islands, rather than being a great laboratory for the study of evolution, are, in reality, a magnificent showcase for Creation and the Flood.

Dr. Keith Swenson is a retired medical doctor who now teaches courses in biology and geology at Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon. He also served for twenty years as President of Portland’s Design Science Association and was on the board of the Seven Wonders Museum near Mount St. Helens. Keith especially enjoys leading field trips and has taken thousands to Mount St. Helens, the Columbia Gorge, Northwest forests and the Grand Canyon. He has co-led, with Dr. Steve Austin, periodic trips into the “Little Grand Canyon” at Mount St. Helens. Keith has a B.S. in Zoology from the University of Idaho and an M.D. from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. He and his wife, Connie, have four grown children.
