Part II

Scriptural basis for cooperation WITH ICR and others.

The differences with ICR and Andrew cited above need not persist. Cooperation is still possible and most desirable. Part of Andrew's 11/17/02 email agrees with this:

• "We would welcome you joining us in showing compromising Christians and unbelievers alike that these evidences in God's world powerfully support what God's Word has always plainly taught."

Andrew and I have long been very good friends. I appreciate his invitation to join him and ICR. There is a way to continue our long and very fruitful association wherein we have followed God's many providences in showing compromising Christians and unbelievers alike that primordial polonium halos unequivocally point to God's instant creation of the Earth. So there can still be a solid basis for cooperation provided we could agree on what God's Word has always plainly taught about creation.

To prove this was earlier a very strong facet of our united efforts, I quote below part of Andrew's very timely Jan. 14, 1994, fax to then-Adventist-Media-Center President Glenn Aufderhar. Andrew sent this urgent, most helpful fax after he learned that Glenn had come under very strong pressure to cancel completion and production of the Fingerprints and Young Age videos. Here is part of Andrew's fax endorsing the Young Age video, and encouraging Glenn to continue.

• "As I have already said, I can wholeheartedly endorse the video and vouch for the scientific integrity and veracity of the evidence presented in it. This evidence, and therefore the video which presents it so ably, needs to be seen and heard by both believers and unbelievers alike, so believers will have their confidence in God and His Word powerfully confirmed, and so unbelievers will see that God alone is truth and therefore seek Him. Again, I urge you not to let any opposition, whatever its source, to deter you and your team from getting this vital video completed and out to the public. If I can help you in any way to achieve that objective, then don't hesitate to contact me. May the Lord give you the courage to stand firm upon the truth of His Scriptures."

Yes, being in agreement with what God's Word has always plainly taught about creation was always the preeminently important basis for the cordial association that Andrew and I experienced for so long. And what is the Bible's teaching?
