Who's Your Daddy?
Examining Scientific Evidence for Human Origins
Where did humanity begin? Did we emerge through evolutionary processes from ape-like ancestors? Are we a special creation? Or both? Does belief in a creator demand that we ignore science? Is it possible that science and faith can be allies instead of enemies?
Whether you're a skeptical inquirer, a seeker, a Christian, or of another faith, Who's Your Daddy? promises to inform you about up-to-the-minute discoveries and the relationship between faith and science.This event will be nothing short of fascinating, thought-provoking, and thoroughly respectful of both faith and hard science.
MAIN EVENT - Free
Friday, February 3, 7:30-9:30 p.m. in the Lakeside Auditorium
On February 3, Who's Your Daddy? will present cutting-edge discoveries on the human fossil record, "junk" DNA, Neanderthals and the connection between humans and chimps. Dr. Fazale Rana will discuss a new model that integrates scientific data with biblical and historical narrative. You'll experience powerful insights and discover a framework to test emerging evidence for human origins.
A DEEPER LOOK WORKSHOP

On February 4, join Dr. Rana for a three-session workshop:
- Origins of Life reveals a model that shows how perspectives on
first life's beginnings can be tested - as a creation event - with astounding
results.
- Biochemical Design highlights a ground-breaking, innovative
approach to science apologetics which cause believers to stand in awe of the
Creator and challenge unbelievers with new reasons to believe in the God of
the Bible.
- Scientific Challenges to Evolution explores the newest
scientific discoveries and shows how the evidence for evolution is getting
weaker by the day.

 Dr. Fazale Rana
Dr. Fazale "Fuz" Rana, co-author of Who Was Adam?, is the vice president of science apologetics at Reasons To Believe. His scientific research in biochemistry provided him with the initial evidence that life must have a Creator; a personal challenge daring him to read the Bible led him to the scriptural evidence that the Creator is the God of the Bible.
Dr. Rana attended West Virginia State College, then Ohio University, where he earned a Ph.D. in Chemistry. His post-doctoral work was conducted at the Universities of Virginia and Georgia. He has published over 15 articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals and delivered over 20 presentations at international scientific meetings. Dr. Rana co-authored a chapter on anti-microbial peptides for Biological and Synthetic Membranes.
Dr. Rana makes regular appearances on the weekly television program Reasons To Believe, which airs on the Trinity Broadcasting Network, and has contributed to Reasons To Believe's magazine, Facts for Faith. He is the co-author of Origins of Life, a book with Hugh Ross on the supernatural origin of life.
Dr. Rana and his wife Amy have five children (four daughters and one son). They live in southern California.
