Dr.
Ed Boudreaux
Talk: Chemical Origin of Life - Part 2; Where Does Life Come From?
Date: March 13th, 7:00pm
RMCF is privileged to have as its’ March
speaker, Dr. Ed Boudreaux. The title of his talk will be Chemical
Origin of Life - Part 2; Where Does Life Come From? Dr. Edward Boudreaux
received his PhD from Tulane University in 1962, his MS from Tulane
University in 1958 and his BS from Loyola University in 1956.
Dr. Boudreaux was a Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Physics
for 29 years at the University of New Orleans. He retired Prof.
Emeritus in 1991. He has numerous publications in refereed scientific
journals, and has made contributions to both books and reviews.
Dr. Boudreaux has made presentations at conferences and seminars
both nationally and internationally.
He has been a Creation Scientist since 1976
and was an expert witness for the Louisiana Balanced Treatment Law.
He was the President of Origins Resource Association of Louisiana
and the Gulf Coast, the local Creationist group. Dr. Boudreaux has
been invited to many Creation Science presentations and both TV
and radio appearances. He has had presentations and publications
at two International Creation Conferences.
One of the evolutionist's major tenants is that life originated
naturally from inanimate chemical substances. During the 1950s-60s,
noted scientists bearing names such as Urey, Miller, Fox and a few
others, conducted laboratory simulated experiments by reacting simple
compounds which they presumed to be present in the earth's primordial
atmosphere. This excluded oxygen which is currently present in the
atmosphere, but included hydrogen, nitrogen, methane and water,
constituting a reducing atmosphere.
Where Does Life Come From is a presentation prepared by Dr. John
DeMassa, a Creation Science colleague of Dr. Ed Boudreaux. Dr. DeMassa
is also know as Dr. Molecule. Dr. DeMassa requested that this presentation
be delivered to many other audiences for both their feed back and
comments.
The over all content is based on an acronym for the word ORIGIN.
The presentation will give a contrast between what science currently
has to offer on this subject, in contrast to the obvious conclusion,
that an intelligent creator is essential; which is the conclusion
that any honest-thinking person is compelled to accept (whether
a believer or not).
Dr. Boudreaux states he will address both the scientific and Biblical
aspects of the question.
