Creation And Evo
Creation vs. Evolution
Ever since the publication of Charles Darwin's The Origin of Species was
published there has been an ongoing debate between science and religion. Scientists
have formulated many theories as to the origins of man and to the creation of the
earth, whereas religious groups have one main creation theory, based on the Genesis
story of The Bible. These theories, however, are not the cause of the debate because
the different theories are simply myths meant to explain the unknown-- the debate is
caused by different belief systems.
According to a November 1997 Gallup poll 44% of the people that responded
agreed that God created human beings in their present form at one time within the last
10,000 years or so. Based on the same poll 39% of the people said that human beings
evolved from less intelligent life forms, but God guided this process. Only 10% of the
people polled said that God had no part in the creation of human beings (Issues 394).
The main difference between creationists and scientists is the way they fight this
debate. Creationists have developed their own science: Creation Science. Creation
scientists look to prove that creation is right and science is wrong, providing selective
interpretations of the fossil record. But their interpretations are exaggerated and
foolish. Creationists will pick one scientific theory and do everything they can to
point out it's flaws, disregarding what they can't prove wrong. They will often use
emotions to control the public to their side. They spend their time trying to discover
false evolution rather than teaching their beliefs to the general public. The theory of
evolution removes humans from the center of the universe, and religious followers
can't believe that their God, who created us in his image (Bible 2), would allow that.
The creationist arguments can be summed up in one example from the Morris -
Parker book. They state Evolution is claimed to be 'scientific,' and still going on, so it
seems like it should be observable and measurable. Yet after 150 years of intense
study of biological variations, evolutionists are still completely in the dark about the
supposed mechanism of evolution. This fact surely is cause for beginning to doubt the
validity of the very concept of evolution (303). Words such as 'claimed', 'should be',
and 'supposed' are very powerful, but they don't give examples as to where and who
claimed or supposed these things, nor do th...
