Here's your chance to show it, if there is any.

Now, when I ask for evidence for Creation, I am NOT (repeat NOT) asking for all the various ways that creationists knitpick evolution (most of which are distorted or flat out wrong, may I add). I'm not trying to take words out of your mouth or back you into a corner by putting up that restriction, either. Attacking evolution does not give Creation any credit. As any student in any intro to logic class will tell you, disproving claim A does not automatically prove claim B. In other words, evolution could be wrong, in spite of all the evidence supporting it, but that would not automatically prove Creation to be true.

So...with all that having been said, do you have any evidence to show me?

If you accept Logic as proof, then here it is:

Premise 1. Outputs = Inputs + process. Let Outputs be called creation.

Premise 2. For premise 1 to come about someone has to have the resources and power to do the process. Let him be called the Great Cause.

Premise 3. For every rule there is an exception.

Premise 4. The rule on exception can not be applied to any of the components on Premise 1 because it would be non-sense.

Premise 5. The rule on exception must therefore be applied to premise 2.

Conclusion: Therefore, the Great Cause ( the one w/ resources and sufficient might) was the one who caused Premise 1. Further He was not subject to Premise 1 by reason of premise 3.

First evolution exists. Evolution is the mechanism of change, whether it be humans, plants, or the automobile. You must ask yourself does what you see around you, and what you know to be true make sense? The law of nature is that-all things tend to a state of disorder-. Classic example is the sugar cube and water. If you disolve a sugar cube in water, then evapoarte the water, you do not get the cube back. This is the sugar avoiding an ordered state. This is an inrefutable law, and it applies to all things.
Now knowing this, why do we have what we do on this planet? Why are systems more complex than they should be, knowing that in nature, things will always take the easy road. 2000 years ago, a cave man in Switzerland was making tools by banging rocks together with the "same exact hands" that today are making fine watches. Why did a cave man need such hands?
Why is there beauty? Ever been camping and see a sunrise and say "That is so beautiful". To all the other animals in the woods, that same sunrise means it's 'be seen and be eaten time'. To appreciate beauty cannot be expalined by a "survival of the fittest" argument.
This might not prove "creation", but scientifically it raises some unique questions about why any given system exists. And if you cannot disprove a theory, then it must be true.
I say God created the universe, and with it the evolution of his creations. Prove me wrong. Don't prove to me evolution exists, I know it does. Explain how all that we have now, got started by or with evolution alone.

Read the book of Job in the bible. It will cause you to rethink your question.

Creationists believe the Bible, which is God's word. If it conflicts with science, they believe the Bible over science. If the Bible is truly God's word, and man is fallible and corruptible and capable of deceit even as scientists. Who could be like history reconstructionists distorting the truth of history. Someone submitted this the following the other day and I am resubmitting it for your benefit

The Bible says world made in six days. Popular science does not. Note that there is also no scientific support for walking on water, coming back from the dead, turning water to wine, a worldwide flood for 40 days, a donkey talking, a snake talking, God existing, the blind being healed with spit and mud, a fruit giving people shame when eaten, rivers turning to blood, firstborns in a town all dying for no reason, modern languages springing up instantly at Babel, people living 600 years or more, Heaven or Hell existing, people commanding seas and winds to stop, etc. If you don't believe one part of the Bible, what's to stop you from believing any other part? So it all boils down to a belief system.
Have a great resurrection Sunday !!!

The first evidence I would give you is ORDER The basic thing in biology is atomic structure(the structure of an Atom) and then to the precise nature of every living creature, to the order of the Universe.Do you realize how difficult and vast the computer we have within us is.(The Brain).is so ordered and still we no so little about it.

My second evidence would be personal experience. You can examine my body and you won't find anything christian, but the brain hold my christian testimony. Can you say with scientific knowledge that Millions of people over the last 6000 years have all lied about experiencing God in some way.

God is a continuum His spirit has worded in every Generation. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Everyone has a right to Believe or not Believe.

The constitution recognizes God

One of the biggest proofs is the fact that you are courious, you think. thus you search

Gen 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide, the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
Gen 1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

These are some evidences of creation according to the bible. Please continue to read the Holy Bible, Old and New Testament for your enlightement of your doubt regarding creation.

Consider this : An archaeologist digs deep into the desert sand and finds a piece of an old clay pot. After his investigations, this archaeologist can tell us, from this little old piece of dusty clay, so much about the civilisation that existed thousands of years ago that produced it; he can tell us about the types of ovens, temperatues, and dyes that they worked with, the raw materials that they used, and thus assess the level of their artistic skill and technological ability, etc. All this from a small piece of clay lying in the desert.
Did this archaeologist ever see the civilisation that produced this pot ?

How does he know that it ever existed ?

He knows because he saw that the piece of clay was produced by someone who designed it, and shaped it, and had the intelligence to be able to heat it and produce the pot, and not only that, they also had the ability to colour it and make it look beautiful.

Design ==> Designer.

To the archaeologist the existence and intricacy of the piece of pottery is conclusive proof of the existence, intelligence and ability of the people who made it.

Look around you: at the beautiful sunset on a summer evening, at the moon and the stars on a cloudless night, at the water that you drink, at the trees and how they grow from tiny seeds.

Think about yourself: your eyes with which you see, your ears with which you hear, your tongues with which you taste and talk, your hands and your feet, your heart and your brain.

Consider how these things are so complex in themselves and yet work together in such perfect harmony.

From the movement of the galaxies to the complexities of the interaction of molecules, from the dynamics of eco-systems to the intricacies of DNA, all lead to the obvious fact of the existence of the great Wisdom, Knowledge and Power that allows our Universe to exist and function.

To any perceptive person the existence and intricacy of creation is conclusive proof of the Existence, Knowledge and Wisdom of the One who creates, organises and sustains it.

Most people naturally recognise the existence of the Creator, and we find reference to the Creator in all cultures and religions. Even the atheists, communists and (disbelieving) scientists cannot avoid this reality, but avoid the term 'creator', for phrases like 'Mother Nature' and 'the amazing way nature has designed...'

How strange in the face of this, that many today reject the belief in the existence of the Creator. Perhaps this is due more to fashion and the desire to justify a materialistic attitude to life rather than real observation and comprehension of reality.

Something stranger still, and perhaps another reason for the trend to deny the Creator, are those who claim that a man, or men, who walked on the earth, breathed air, who had bodies and souls subject to the Laws of the Universe, are the Creator, or manifestations of the Self-Subsistent One.

This is of course a complete contradiction in terms. Something cannot be the Creator and created at the same time, needing air, food and drink and being self-sufficient, being temporary and eternal!

If you are one of those who believe that a man such as Buddha, or Krishna, or Jesus is the Creator and Controller, then think again.

We were created from a drop of despised fluid, in which was a microscopic sperm, which in turn fertilised a microscopic egg and we grew in our mother's womb in stages predetermined, over which we had no control. We came from our mother's womb, urinating and defecating, needing constant attention and care. Without food we will die, without air we will die ... and then such a one is God?

Indeed any intelligent person would recognise exactly how dependant life, the universe and everything is on its Creator. Our dire need for His help makes itself plain in times of great distress.

Imagine yourself in an aeroplane and you know it is going to crash...

Who do you turn to for help then ?

Or on a ship in the sea, thrown helplessly up and down by towering waves ...

There will have been a situation at one time or the other in your life when you called upon your Creator alone, forgetting everyone and everything else, hoping, trusting, wishing that the Being you know in your heart and soul that has power and control over all things would help you. The only One you know can save you!

Yes!

Try it yourself! I can advise you a therapy.

Sow a seed of mango or any other seed in the Earth and wait for a few months till a soft stem with 2 leaves grow-out.

If you are spiritually awakened and are not having Evil feelings you will immediately start loving that seed and you will pour water on this, daily.

Experience this, after a few days you will really start believe on the word "Creation".

It had to have a beginning. I believe God created and that does not rule out evolution. Even with evolution it took an intelligence to create the single cells that would evolve.

The so-talked approximately as "info" for introduction is of two kinds. One variety is the introduction myths of the distinctive international religions. of course, as those are very diverse from one yet another, no better than one among them might desire to be genuine, and all might desire to be fake. the 2d variety encompasses a sequence of tries to discredit the medical info in choose of evolution. those very from tortuous rationalizations to 3 outright lies. The creationist tale relies as lots on absence of info as something. If the evolutionist can not grant an entire clarification, which no person might desire to, approximately activities interior the distant previous, the creationist cries "Aha! It might desire to have been god!" 2 comments approximately faith-based perception are well worth repeating: Nietzsche, "A walk in the process the insane asylum exhibits that faith does not coach something." Mark Twain: "faith is believing in what you be conscious of a'int so."

If you are asking for just one, then I would say it is the similarity between the structures of living things. The bone structure of animals points toward one "manufacturer."
You can see the design in architecture between different types of structures built by the same designer. In fact, you expect to find similarities in their construction.
