Russell Arndts

From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science

Russell T. Arndts obtained a Ph.D in Chemistry from Louisiana State University in 1968. In 1970 he became a full time chemistry professor at St. Cloud State University. It was during this time that some of his students encouraged him to take a closer look at evolution, and he was suprised to find weakness in some of the logic used to substantiate the claims of evolutionists.

In the early 80’s, he and fellow scientist Bill Overn began investigating a theory that isotopes were not always from radioactive decay, but could have been the result of already existing materials. They further established a mixing model as an alternative to isochrons. Arndts was a featured speaker at the 1983 National Creation Conference held in the Twin Cities. He retired from teaching in 1999, and since then has been helping Christians understand the creation worldview. Present writing have to do with the big bang and the reasoning process used by evolutionists.

Dr. Arndts currently serves on the advisory board of Creation Moments.
