Members of CEANet,
Here's a major heads-up concerning the upcoming International Conference
on
Creationism (ICC):
1998 International Conference on Creationism (August 3-8, 1998)
Location: Geneva College, Beaver Falls, PA
About the ICC
The International Conferences on Creationism, (ICC) have served to
greatly further the creation model of origins. ICC98 continues in this
strong tradition as set forth by the sponsors of the ICCs, the Creation
Science Fellowship, Inc. of Pittsburgh, PA, and promises to surpass
prior
Conferences.
History of ICC
The Creation Science Fellowship sponsored the First International
Conference on Creationism (ICC) in Pittsburgh in 1986. The Second
International Conference on Creationism was held in July/August 1990.
The
International Conference's are recognized around the world as the
preeminent gathering for technical exchange on the topic of creation
science. The ICC brings together the world's top creationists for a
technical conference. It has two main purposes: general and technical.
Its intention is to provide something for everyone, from entry level
presentations on various topics in creation science to a highly
technical, peer reviewed symposium, with planned rebuttals and
discussions. The CSF intends this to be a quadrennial event.
