Creation or Evolution? Why?

Question

Creation; Think of This: If Adan & Eva were our ancestors & if they were 2 white like Americans(or 2black like Africans) why does there are still black (or white/malays)? Does the biology of human stands out?

Evolution; Think of This: Have you ever seen an ape evolved to the extent doing what we do, think on how we think & have a common sense? In short, "have you ever seen an ape evolved to a real man"?

Answer 1

I believe in creation. I think believing in a higher being make alot more sense than believing something just came out of no where. If that was the case, I would make a 50 dollar bill appear right in front of me right now. No matter fact, make that twenty, one hundred dollar bills. Where did that single cell come from ya know? Plus I just feel in my heart creation is the truth. I have plenty of reasons why too :)

p.s. Whether or not Adam and Eve were African-American, Caucasion, Indian whatever, there would STILL be different races, cultures, etc because there are different parts of the world, hence, different weather, (causing different skin tones) ..... different people ... bonding differently in each place (causing different cultures, beliefs)...and the list goes on.

Answer 2

The first part of your question is already answered by you. If Adam and Eve were of Middle Eastern origin--if that is where the Garden of Eden was situated--then all of humanity would look similarly Middle-Eastern. The supposed 3000 years since the ejection of A&E is not long enough for evolution to come up with such diverse racial differences.

The second part of your question: "have you ever seen an ape evolved to a real man?", well, not yet because it takes evolution a long time--relative to our short lifespans--to make those changes. Anyway, an ape would not evolve into a man but into whatever genetic path its genes would determine, just as ours have taken us from one physical and mental form to another. And it is an on-going process; all lifeforms are in a constant state of evolution and change--that is perhaps the wonder of creation!

Answer 3

Ok, Me and my g/f argue over this question all the time, She believes in Creation Of the Divine, I believe in Evolution. Now, I think I would rather go with FACTS like we evolved from Apes, Then to believe we were just PUT here on earth. Now dont get me wrong, I believe in God, and spirits and all that, But there just isnt the proof to say otherwise. When did blacks separate from Whites in the matter of skin color? Was adam black, Eve white? Then where did Mexicans come in? Asians? Chinese? There has to be some kind of reasonable explanation of evolution. But im unsure myself, If we evolved from Apes, Then why did we evolve so much faster then the rest of them? Intelligence, Speed, Walking upright, Speech, Many things. So did we REALLY evolve? Good subject to talk about. Thx for readin this. I guess its just gonna be a mystery. -Mike

Answer 4

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say here, but let me point out a flaw in your second thought. "Have you ever seen an APE evolved to the extent doing what we do?

Your statement would imply that evolution acts upon individuals and is goal orientated (an (one?) ape - doing what we do). Many often use the term "Evolved" to indicate being better - I prefer the term "better adapted". Evolution is a natural process that acts upon entire populations of organisms. The major cause is natural selection. In the case of an ape - the forces of natural selection come from their environment - namely the jungle. As long as conditions don't change, apes now are perfectly suited (adapted) to their environment, and likely will never become man-like unless selective forces guide them to walk upright and, develop opposable thumbs and larger brains. In the case of human evolution, it is believed our ancestors either leaft the jungle, or the jungle died off - leaving them to live within the great plains of Africa. With no trees to climb for cover - walking (or running) on two legs gave them advantages in height and speed over the predators of the day. Opposable thumbs and larger brains allowed our ancestors to use tools at an entirely new level - particularly in regards to food and shelter. Traits that evolved in this new environment luckily made our ancestors - and thus ourselves better adapted to a multitude of environments - and thus the human population has spread everywhere around the globe.

Given enough time, and similar selective forces - modern apes could one day repeat a similar evolutionary process as our ancestors, but at this point that's just conjecture.

Answer 5

To the person above: I think those last two should be Charm and Strangeness.

A: Creationism is religious myth, only evolution is evidenced based science, choosing to believe religious scripture over scientific knowledge is choosing wilful ignorance. Some creationists will even go so far as to try to subvert science to make it fit their mythology they are that desperate to run away from truth.

I read just the other day about a woman working in a gorilla sanctuary, baby gorilla's left abandoned when their parents have been hunted down by poachers for sale as bush meat...anyway she said she never cries in front of the baby Gorilla's because she doesn't want to upset them, once when she did cry in front of them a baby gorilla noticed and wiped her tears away.
Most baby gorilla's die from sadness because they don't forget how their parents were killed, they retain a fear of hunters all their lives., they feel and have real emotions.

Answer 6

Creationary Evolutionist.

The sole purpose of this universe is for the human race to attempt to evolve, physically, morally, spiritually and emotionally. Why? I don't know. I do know that the next steps of existence can't even begin to be conceived by what we are today.

If a committee of apes got together to design the super-ape, would they design a man?

Answer 7

I haven't seen an ape evolved into a real man. You know how long that takes? Actually think about it. Evolution is the proven theory. I guess i prefer facts instead of thinking that no matter who we end up marrying we will still be committing incest.

Answer 8

Only because of evolution you can ask questions like this. It`s proved and even church has accepted it. People who believe in creation often tend to think that humans are not animals, that we are something better. That`s why they say that we are not related with monkeys.

Answer 9

Creation. I think you have to have more faith to believe in evolution. It is nothing more than a fairy tale for grown-ups. And who are Adan and Eva?

Answer 10

I'm going to go with what Jesus said on this one:

Matthew 19:4-5 "He that made them male and female in the beginning."

Evolution believes man came at the end of the time-scale, so if creation if good enough for Jesus it's good enough for me.
