Creation or Evolution ....... whats your view ?

Answer 1

The only logical explanation for the wonder, complexity and beauty of nature is a supernatural creation by God Himself. I don't have enough faith to believe in evolution.

Answer 2

I just have a feeling that as scientists learn more about nature and the natural world the more they turn toward creationism. Evolution just seems to have too many flaws.

I recently heard about a program coming up Sept. 28 called "Out of Thin Air." (see www.thinairevent.com) that will discuss this topic. I am excited to see what they'll say regarding this issue.

Answer 3

Of course evolution is a creation. But you are probably speaking of creation science. I think creation science is just a way of making it OK to teach Geniuses in public schools. Creation science speaks of intelligent design. I think many evolutionists believe in intelligent design. What it all boils down to is an argument over the accuracy of the story of Adam and Eve. I believe that story is something that evolved from ancient myth with a few chapters missing. I mean who the heck was Cains wife? A sister? something is missing. But it is just myth anyway.

Answer 4

There are a few holes in our knowledge of evolution. Still, it's the best thing we've got. Most of the evidence points to evolution, after all. None of it points to creation.

EDIT: Bert, many of your quotations are selective or out of context. It takes a major cataclysm to create a fossil, which is why the fossil record is incomplete. Thus you have Eohippus, a miniature horse with four hooves on each foot, then the next cataclysm preserved the remains of Merychippus, about the size of a small pony, with one large hoof and two vestigial ones on either side of the foot that did not touch the ground. Also, some modern creatures are indeed showing signs of evolving, like the skink which is using its body more for movement like a snake but still making occasional use of its tiny vestigial legs.

Answer 5

Evolution.

You know that we were living with Neaderthals as well? Do you know there's chimps, gorillas, orangutans on earth right and they're all apes just like us?

That doesn't show anything except your ignorance. Evolution is dichotomic, I thought everyone knew that.

Intelligence creating life is proof of creationism Earl D said?

Well, what if science proves that the same scenario of creating life 10 years from now is what happened 4 billion years ago by the hugely unstable climate. Is that intelligent design? No, it's just nature.

Answer 6

I haven't studied the matter. I've read some books on Intelligent Design and took Biology in high school, but I just have serious doubts about Evolution, especially the idea that it takes millions of years. Evolution, in truth, should be a very quick process. Why would a species wait millions of years to evolve? If it can survive millions of years to evolve, then it doesn't need to evolve because it can survive as it is.

Also I think science, in general, is very mathematical. Gravity for instance. It has observable effects but it can only become a scientific truth once someone finds out a mathematical equation to explain. But evolution just appears random, some species chose to evolve, others do not. Its just foolish, as if to say, "Gravity works in Europe, but not in Asia".

So I am neutral on this, but I would have more support for Intelligent Design because its just obvious that in a universe of scientific laws you need some sort of governor who established those laws. But I don't really debate this topic because when it comes to science I am neither passionate or brilliant, so I restrain myself to history and such.

Answer 7

Evolution" by the very definition of the word assumes modification in successive generations over hundreds of thousands of years. But if Homo sapiens and Homo habilis lived at the SAME time at the SAME place, it makes the theory of evolution highly dubious. It could mean one of several things:

1. Home habilis were not even human and never EVOLVED into Homo sapiens.

2. Homo habilis were freaks of nature-like pygmies-and never in the chain of evolution.

Now, the mere opinion of some scientists cannot be taken as facts, unless they put forward some other evidence to support their continued belief in evolution. Simply asserting that "scientists are still working on it" and therefore one must continue to believe in Evolution is hypocrisy, when we are asked to believe something for which there is no strong evidence.

Unless scientists come up with a better explanation, the theory of evolution, in my view, has suffered a deathblow.

Answer 8

Evolution. Science rocks.

Answer 9

You, along with others, don't understand the issues

It's not about CREATION and EVOLUTION

but CREATION and RANDOMISM

Evolution can occur in EITHER REALM

Scientist are now 10 years away from CREATING a new LIFE FORM by INTELEGENT DESIGN

This will PROVE once and for all that WILLFUL INTENT definately CREATES LIFE

But NO ONE has yet to prove RANDOMISM can create life

So creationism stands to win

At least in the big picture of things

It's about an intellegent being (GOD) creating life and then evolution working on that life vs

RANDOM chemicals coming together to FORM life (which hs NEVER BEEN PROVEN to be a reality).

When SCIENCE creates CELLS it will PROVE that INTELLGENCE is the ONLY KNOWN THING to produce a LIFE FORM

Hence INTELLEGENT DESIGN is the ONLY way we KNOW FOR SURE that LIFE CAN BE MADE

The rest to PROVE is up to the RANDOMISTS to set up a camera on some primordial MUCK and show us that CELLS of ORGANIC NATURE can be produced by INORGANIC CHEMICALLY ACCIDENTALLY

This is the ONE and ONLY ISSUE

CREATIONISM vs RANDOMISM

Evolution has the potential to work in EITHER motiff.

Answer 10

I'm a Christian and I don't see the two as mutually exclusive. Evolution, it seems to me, could easily be a mechanism of God's creation.
