Break out your microscopes and haz-mat suits! It's time to delve into the world of germs and discover how something so small can have such a huge, deadly impact on the world around us. It seems that every day a new, more horrible disease is touted on the news. Where did all these germs come from, and how do they fit into a biblical world view? What kind of function did microbes have before the Fall? Gillen answers these questions and many more in this fascinating book. Professor Gillen also shows that these constantly mutating diseases are evidence for devolution rather than evolution. Written for home schoolers and others with a fascination for learning, The Genesis of Germs shows how all the diseases and germs in today's world point toward creation. Join Dr. Gillen as he shows how germs illustrate the literal Fall and Curse of all creation as a result of man's sin outlined in the book of Genesis, and how he shows the hope we have in the coming of Jesus Christ.
