The modern world is held captive by a brilliantly designed house of cards. For generations, the secular scientific establishment has presented the theory of evolution, the Big Bang, and the timeline of "deep time" not as theories, but as undeniable, absolute facts. From the television screens of The Cosmos to the halls of academia, humanity is taught that the universe is a godless accident and that biological life crawled out of the mud through a brutal, random lottery of death and time. In The Logic of Creation, David Michael Curtis brings this secular narrative into the cold, silent ...

What if everything you were taught about evolution was a lie? For years, you’ve been told that you’re an accident. That nothing exploded into everything, that fish turned into philosophers, and that death is just part of the process. But what if the evidence actually points to design, purpose, and a Creator? Because God, Duh! isn’t a soft devotional. It’s a blunt-force truth grenade that dismantles evolution using science, logic, and the unapologetic clarity of Dr. Kent Hovind’s best debates and illustrations. Former hardcore atheist Casey Ocupe walks you through the very evidence...
