Biography:
Gary Bates used to believe in evolution. However, upon his conversion to Christianity he had difficulty reconciling the so-called "facts" of evolution with the teaching of the Bible. Through his journey of personal discovery, he has explored many of the issues surrounding the creation and evolution debates, and for over 15 years, he has worked both as a volunteer and staff member of Answers in Genesis in Australia as a featured speaker and now serves in its ministry development activities. His conclusions have sparked controversy in the Christian community because he is not afraid to address issues surrounding UFOs and aliens unlike most mainstream denominations.
