|**It needs to be discussed that the author of this book is a “Young Earther” – following the belief that the bible is historically accurate and that a day in the |

|bible = a day on earth. This makes the earth relatively young, as opposed to being millions of years old such as an “Old Earther” would believe. This will come |

|out throughout his books. |
