Meeting Topic: Video – “Alien Intrusion: Unmasking a Deception” (Part 1)

Synopsis: “Millions of people have seen UFOs and many even recall personal encounters with strange entities. The popular view is that these are advanced aliens visiting us from far away, but this compelling new documentary takes a deeper look at the events, the beliefs, the experts and the people who have shaped our views in the ‘otherworldly.’ When one examines this phenomenon, one of the most disturbing but powerful affirmations of the spiritual realm, Christianity and the Bible becomes clearer. This documentary seeks to solve one of the most haunting and persistent mysteries of our time by addressing  UFO sightings in every country, things seen on radar, what happened at Roswell, alien abductions, government cover-ups, and even a ‘new’ religion. The truth will surprise you!” (official website)

Meeting Topic: Video – “Circular Reasoning in Dating Methods” talk by Dr. Andrew Snelling from Answers in Genesis (AiG)

Synopsis: “Trees grow annual rings; and in lakes thin sediment layers called varves are deposited. Like radiocarbon, these are used as dating methods. It is claimed these methods agree with one another. But closer examination renders them questionable at best. The key to their misuse is circular reasoning, which only proves what is assumed to begin with. For instance, radiocarbon is calibrated against tree rings, but then the tree-ring master chronology is calibrated using radiocarbon. And varves are counted at one per year, but then the counts are corrected using the radiocarbon in organic debris found in the varves themselves. Thus there is no objective dating standard for these three methods. Instead, this forced agreement renders these dating methods totally unreliable. They cannot be used to discredit the Bible’s timescale for earth’s history.” (AiG)
