Snelling&#039;&#039;&#039; (Dr.) is a geologist and prominent young-earth creationist, currently Director of Research at Answers in Genesis. He is listed in &#039;&#039;[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Background==<br /> Snelling holds a Ph.D. in geology from the University of Sydney (1982) and worked as a professional geologist, including in mineral and uranium exploration, before becoming a full-time advocate of creation science. He has been a leading figure in creationist geology through organisations such as the Institute for Creation Research, Creation Ministries International and Answers in Genesis, where he edits the &#039;&#039;Answers Research Journal&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Ideas==<br /> Snelling promotes a young-earth interpretation of geology and cosmology in which the Earth and universe were created only thousands of years ago. Among the topics de Climont&#039;s directory associates with him is his commentary on the apparent &quot;galaxy-quasar connection&quot; between the galaxy NGC 4319 and the quasar Markarian 205—a discordant-redshift case highlighted by astronomer Halton Arp—which Snelling and other creationists cite as a challenge to conventional cosmological distance and redshift interpretations. These views lie well outside the scientific mainstream, which regards Markarian 205 as a background object seen through NGC 4319.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [https://answersingenesis.org/bios/andrew-snelling/ Andrew Snelling biography at Answers in Genesis]<br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_A._Snelling Andrew A.
