He is listed in &#039;&#039;[[The Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]&#039;&#039;.<br /> <br /> ==Background==<br /> Wieland graduated as a medical doctor in 1973 and began speaking on creation and evolution by invitation. In 1977 he founded the Creation Science Association of South Australia, described as the first formal creationist organisation in Australia. He later served as managing director and CEO of Creation Ministries International (formerly the Australian branch of Answers in Genesis), a creationist apologetics ministry, until his retirement from active ministry in 2015. He stopped practising medicine in the 1980s following a serious road accident.<br /> <br /> ==Ideas==<br /> Wieland promotes young-earth creationism, rejecting both biological evolution and mainstream cosmology. He argues, on both biblical and what he presents as scientific grounds, that the universe is only thousands of years old and that &quot;infinitely old&quot; or Big Bang cosmologies are untenable. In his writing he commends creationist works on cosmology, such as &#039;&#039;Dismantling the Big Bang&#039;&#039; by John Hartnett and Alex Williams and Jonathan Sarfati&#039;s &#039;&#039;Refuting Compromise&#039;&#039;. These views are rejected by the scientific mainstream.<br /> <br /> ==External links==<br /> * [http://creation.com/dr-carl-wieland-cv Curriculum vitae at Creation.com]<br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Wieland Carl Wieland at Wikipedia]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Scientist|Wieland Carl]]<br /> [[Category:Worldwide List of Dissident Scientists]]</div>
