November 9, 2009 9:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. St. Pius V University (Rome)

In Response to Pope Benedict XVI’s Call for Both Sides to be Heard

The 150th anniversary of Darwin’s “Origin of the Species” in November 2009 will be the occasion for a unique conference at Pope Pius V University in Rome presenting a scientific refutation of evolution theory. According to Russian sedimentologist Alexander Lalamov, “Everything contained in Darwin’s Origin of Species depends upon rocks forming slowly over enormous periods of time. The November conference demonstrates with empirical data that such geological time is not available for evolution.” Recently returned from a ground-breaking geological conference in Kazan, sedimentologist Guy Berthault will present the findings of several sedimentological studies conducted and published in Russia. In one of these, the age of the rock formation surveyed was found to be 0.01% of the age attributed to it by the geological time-scale—instead of an age of 10 million years, the actual age was no more than 10 thousand years. “Contrary to the conventional wisdom,” Lalamov observed, “these rocks formed quickly, and the fossils they contain must be relatively young. This finding contradicts the evolutionary interpretation of the fossil record.” www.sedimentology.fr

This should be interesting.  Read more…

10,000 years as a percentage of 10 million years is 0.1% not 0.01%. Even simple arithmetic seems to be beyond the abilities of these scientific geniuses.bachfiend

So ID is endorsing YEC now? Seriously, what benefit does the ID community gain from accommodating young-Earth creationist theories? It can only serve to confirm suspicions that ID is tied irrevocably to religious tenets and beliefs.tyke

When Googling "St. Pius V University" essentially the only references found relate to the announcement of this conference. The "Libera Università degli Studi San Pio V" has a website (in Italian) at http://www.luspio.it/PaulBurnett

I strongly recommend watching Guy Berthault's "Experiments in Stratigraphy" from his website www.sedimentology.fr. It will change your idea of how sedimentary rocks were formed. He shows how the rock layers were not deposited in time order but all at once, and demonstrates this experimentally. Amazing.mad doc

Mr Lopez, Do you have any information about the venue? I can't find any information through Google about a Pope/St Pius V University in Rome. Google just finds this press release. Any help appreciated, thanks.Nakashima

The three faculties of the Libera Università degli Studi "San Pio V" are: 1. Faculty of Economics 2. Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literature 3. Faculty of Political Sciences I assume that this institute rented out its rooms to a group of individuals (including Maciej Giertych) who are trying to answer a rhetorical question...DiEb
