Is it possible that the Theory of Evolution and the Theory of Creationism can co-exist???

Question

if not compliment each other to provide a more rational and realistic idea of how the Earth, Life and the Universe came to be???

Answer 1

Theories can co-exist; there are often competing theories, although they're best called hypotheses at that stage.

But the models of evolution and 'creationism' are too contradictory to actually exist in the same universe. But look at the language, 'creationism' isn't a scientific theory, it's a religious belief.

Answer 2

Sure. The Theory of Evolution only tried to explain the natural world and how life evolves. It says nothing about where "it all came from" and "why it all is here". Religion can comfortably have that.

It's like the Theory of Relativity. It has nothing to do with anything that religion cares about. It is simply a scientific model for what happens in the natural world.

No conflict unless someone is looking to start a fight.

Answer 3

Yes it can. Supposedly when you break down every being to atoms to electrons and so on and so on it all has to begin with one "particle". The Big Bang started with gases and some body of masses but where did that come from. God started the BIG BANG and used evolution to proceed through in the universe. The dinosaurs came along and depending on how much you believe God controls everything, He sent the comet that destroyed the dinosaurs. The "the earth was a barren wasteland"
as it says in the Genisis. That's how I see it ties together. "Dino's" are not mentioned in the bible because God made them and maybe destroyed them.

Answer 4

The Theories coincide almost identically, it's the WAY it came about that is in conflict.

There are two views.

Religion views a creator, a willful, intellegent creator who did things with intent, you know, like building a TV set when there was none, like making an auto when there was none. Willfull, intellegent creation of things.

The other view in randomistic and it's not fair to say it is the scientific view, for Einstein and others did not subscribe to this view (thus the famous Einstein quote: "God doesn't play dice"). It is merely an alternative view that EVERYTHING happened RANDOMLY. That WE won the cosmic lottery, except there is NO PERSON throwing the dice. It's a perpetual motion machine with no mind, no soul, no heart. The Universe is this magical perpetual motion machine that ALWAYS has the same amount of mass that always existed and always will exist and it operates on some perpetual motion mechanism under laws of nature that came about randomly and Big Bang, another random event and we came into being. (Einstein further said there was an order to the universe and he used terms like God in describing that order.)

And Atheists says WE'RE RETARDED for how we think!

This is this RANDOM PERPETUAL MOTION MACHINE that was always there and works silently with no mechanical devices, starting switch, circuits and life came accidentally from this tornado, this rainstorm, this exploding primordial mass of fusion that created everything accidentlly according to laws and rules that are automatic and given and plunk, he were are!

To bad we can't get TV sets and Microwave ovens that way!

Once again, it's RETARDED to think that someone vastly superior to man created all things, but it's NOT retarded to think all these things just happened randomly.

Finally RANDOMISTS set up rules whereby you can NEVER PROVE they are correct! Planck says you ALTER SOMETHING JUST BY OBSERVING IT, hence you can't observe RANDOM CREATION of things without taining it and saying YOU influcenced it in some way. Heinsberg says you can't predict where an electron will be from moment to moment.

So with these RULES of randomism you get a stacked deck of playing cards in your mindless, souless, cosmic casino.

Answer 5

There is no theory of Creationism. There is a doctrine of "Scientific" Creationism. It is neither scientific nor religious. It is a political ploy to get religion into public schools. It offers no useful ideas.

Answer 6

the main question is that of *straight forward descent*. no one denies that evolution happens. whether, Creationists often settle for in basic terms a *limited* volume of this evolution ... and would opt to call it 'microevolution' (that's a misuse of the term as utilized by skill of scientists ... who do not see 'microevolution' and 'macroevolution' as 2 distinctive strategies *in nature*, yet in basic terms as 2 procedures that scientists *learn* a similar technique, evolution). yet people who settle for the theory of evolution (which incorporates incredibly lots *ALL* scientists) settle for the belief of an previous earth and *straight forward ancestry* of all species. Why? on account that's what the data tells us. Is it a threat that the two ought to locate some straight forward floor? sure. that's achievable that evolution happened precisely as we come across it, finished with overwhelming data of *straight forward ancestry*, yet that deep down this evolution replace into began by skill of a writer, or manipulated alongside the way by skill of a writer, or in all probability even that a writer defined the guidelines of physics and chemistry so as that existence replace into inevitable, and the evolution of an clever species replace into additionally inevitable. that's achievable. whether it is not basic to think of how that must be examined *scientifically*. So if one accepts evolution (alongside with straight forward ancestry) that's for medical motives. And if one accepts the belief of a writer, then that's for motives of organic faith. and there is extremely no reason that those 2 can not co-exist. however the errors is to carry on with tenets of religion to technology (the earth replace into created in 6 days, no remember what the data says) ... or to carry on with the procedures of technology to faith (enable us to objective to show or disprove the life of God making use of the medical technique). save them in separate spheres of comprehend-how and theory ... and likely they might co-exist.

Answer 7

God started evolution after He created the earth, plants and animals and humans, evolution took off from that point on

Answer 8

The only way I can see it is if you say that God used Evolution to create life.

Answer 9

dispite the fact that i'm more spiritual than religious, i have to say no. becuz according to the teory of evolution, humans evolved from tha primapes. if u read tha bible it says that tha animals were created first, then humans. tha evolution theory contradicts that.

Answer 10

Personally, I think thaT God was probably the big bang and then evolution took over.
