 Stout - Responses of Senior Biology Majors at Andrews University to Issues Related to Creation and God's Creatorship
Our senior biology majors see the evidence for design, at levels ranging from subcellular to environmental, as evidence for a Designer and go on to believe that the Designer is the God they have come to know through experience and scripture.
In a creation model with representatives of all major groups of organisms created in the same short period of time (one week), one would expect to both find Cambrian or Cretaceous life forms alive today and extant life forms present, for example, in the Cambrian or Cretaceous.
The evidence from nature demonstrates to our seniors that both design and a Designer are necessary for the origin of living things in the life forms found today and in the fossil record.

Of course, he's been proficient in putting himself in position to win; dating back to last year's U.S. Senior Open, Watson has held or shared the lead in eight of the last 17 rounds in senior majors.
A slight change in his swing, in which he rotates his left arm more on the takeaway, worked well for him as he hit 11 of 14 fairways -- which was crucial when playing lift, clean and place on the rain- soaked Valhalla layout -- and 12 of 18 greens in regulation.
