Kenneth Alfred "Ken" Ham (born 20 October 1951) is an Australian-born young Earth creationist and Christian fundamentalist living in the United States. He is the president of Answers in Genesis (AiG), a Creationist apologetics ministry that operates the Creation Museum.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Ken Ham )〕 Ham is a former high school science teacher.〔 Ham advocates Biblical literalism, taking the Book of Genesis as historical fact. His claim, based on an interpretation of the Bible that the universe is approximately 6,000 years old, is contradicted by the fact that the age of the universe and the age of the Earth are on the order of billions of years. Ham's credentials have been called in to question, in part due to his absence from scientific journals or conferences.〔 See also listing at (Google Books. )〕 ==Personal life and education== Ham was born on October 20, 1951 in Cairns, Australia. His father was a Christian educator who settled his family in Brisbane as a school principal. According to Ham: Ham first rejected what he termed "molecules-to-man evolution" during high school, and became influenced by John C. Whitcomb and Henry M. Morris's ''The Genesis Flood'' in 1974 during college.〔 Ham earned a Bachelor of Applied Science, with an emphasis in Environmental Biology, at Queensland Institute of Technology, and a diploma in Education from the University of Queensland.〔 See also listing at (Google Books. )〕 Ham married his wife Marilyn ("Mally") on December 30, 1972.〔.〕 They have five children.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ken Ham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
