Thomas G. Barnes (August 14, 1911 – October 23, 2001) was an American creationist, who argued in support of his religious belief in a young earth with claims that the Earth's magnetic field was consistently decaying and that Einstein's theory of relativity was incorrect. He believed that his arguments were strong enough to cast into doubt the measured age of the Earth and timescales required for evolution, but only found support for his ideas among fellow creationists.〔Numbers(2006) p284〕 ==Biography==
Barnes obtained three degrees in Physics: an AB from Hardin-Simmons University in 1933, an MS from Brown University under Robert Bruce Lindsay in 1936, and an honorary Sc.D. again from Hardin-Simmons University in 1950. His detractors have questioned his credentials based on that fact that his doctorate was honorary.〔Brett Vickers, (Some Questionable Creationist Credentials ), (Talk.Origins ), (1998, updated May 2002).〕 At the time that Barnes joined the Creation Research Society (CRS) in the early 1960s, he was the head of the Schellenger Research Laboratories at Texas Western College (now University of Texas at El Paso), where he was completing a textbook on electricity and magnetism,〔Numbers(2006) pp257-258〕 and on whose faculty he served from 1938 until he retired in 1981.〔(So Long Dr. Barnes )〕 Barnes headed one of the first projects of the CRS, to create a creationist high school biology text.〔Number(2006) p266〕 Barnes served as the president of the CRS in the mid-1970s.〔Numbers(2006) p283〕
