Standard Level 
|
Requirement 1a |
|
Review the Genesis account of the flood. |
|
Requirement 1b |
|
Read a book about fossils and the biblical flood |
There are many fine book written from a creationist perspective. Some examples:
- Before the Flood (links to book on Amazon)
- Noah's Flood-Birth of the Ice Age (links to book on Amazon)
- Rocks, Fossils and Dinosaurs (available as free digital book)
- Creation Geology: A Study Guide to Fossils, Formations, and the Flood. (links to book Amazon)
- Evidences The Records and The Flood DVD distributed by Adventist Book Centers.
|
Requirement 1c |
|
Study at least three different fossils, explain their origin and relate them to breaking God’s laws. |
Most museums of natural history will have a fossil collection, and even small museums are likely to have a few. If you do not know of such a museum in your area, the Internet is your friend. Try searching for "fossil," "museum," and the name of your locality. If you are still unsure, get a list of local museums and call them. They will be happy to tell you if they have fossils on display, and if they do not, they may be able to direct you to a museum that does.
|
Requirement 2a |
|
Stars
|
|
Requirement 2b |
|
Explain the spiritual significance of Orion as told in Early Writings, p. 41. |
Wilderness Explorer 
|
Requirement 3 |
|
Complete Explorer requirements. |
|
Requirement 4 |
|
Weather/Ferns |
Completing the first requirement fits nicely with the practical requirements of the Weather and Weather - Advanced honor. If you complete the Weather - Advanced honor you would also meet the next requirement below.
The Ferns option is exactly the same as the practical requirement in the Ferns Honor. Completing Ferns honor meets Requirement 5 below.
Guidance for completing these requirements can be found in the Weather/Weather-Advanced and Ferns honor pages.
|
Requirement 5 |
|
Complete a nature honor, not previously earned. (Skill level 2 or 3) |
While there is a large number of Nature honors at Skill Level 2 or 3 to choose from, logical choices might be:
- Weather-Advanced
- Ferns
- Fossils
Wilderness Explorers must complete major requirement of the Weather-Advanced OR Ferns Honors elsewhere in this section. The Exploror requirements differ from but compliment the major requirements of the Fossils honor.
