In my life, I've met two people that I can think of that disbelieve both modern evolutionary theory and Biblical creation. Aside from those two, all the thousands of people that I've encountered that reject TOE believe that the Abrahamic God created everything.
Does anyone here reject both concepts of origin? If so, what is your alternative explanation (assuming you have one)?
Just trying to learn a bit about other people, here.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Mr. X: I'm aware of those things. That doesn't answer my question.

I don't believe any of it, there is no proof, apes are still here we did not come from them and if there is a God, he sure screwed up his creation. I don't have a theory because there isnt any proof on how we got here

Yes. Jehovah's Witnesses as a whole.
Creationism teaches various manmade interpretations of the Bible that don't agree with proved science.
Such as: that the 6 creative days were only 24 hours. The 24 hour days did not exist yet when those 6 periods started. The sabbath rest day began after Eve's creation and extends through the 1,000 year day of judgment (hence 7,000 plus year by Bible chronology) which would mean that each of the other 6 must be at least the same length (or 49,000 years + for all 7 days).
The earth in raw form and all material heavens already existed.
So we teach neither creation"ism" or evolution. If you'd like to know about Bible creation, I can send you a free book called Life-How Did It Get Here? By Evolution or by Creation? It is very scientific and covers many aspects of evolution, problems scientists have in evolution, etc.

there is evidence for both theories...
this is why many intelligent men subscribe to both...
I dont think anyone could truly know how God did it, or how it happened at all...
scientific and religious communities are both guilty of arrogance by claiming to know...
you either have faith in the Bible, or Darwin...
I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, and that a tornado rolling through a home depot will never build a house

Cuz if you do, you don't know how long the Bible says the world has been around OR how long evolution takes, OR the science behind the discovery of the evidence that the TOE tries to resolve.

Evolution Theory as put forth by Charles Darwin says nothing about the origin of modern man (homo sapiens).

evolution is not subject to belief or disbelief. if you think it does, you don't understand the nature of science.
biblical creationism is nothing but a fancy way of saying biblical literalism, which most religious people don't even believe in. throughout history, no one took the bible literally, until the 20th century. it doesn't make any sense taken literally. but in any case, creationism is religion, and is subject to belief.
but evolution is science. it has absolutely nothing to do with belief. it has to do with evidence.
creationism and evolution do not compete with each other, they have nothing to do with each other.

TOE has supporting evidence from nearly all scientific disciplines, not just biology... and THOROUGHLY explains the origins of modern man (homo sapiens).
No other theory has a better explanation.
Creationism has a dusty, old book whose only claim to truth is that it claims it's the truth!
Darwin's theory was Origin of Species through Natural Selection... not all inclusive.

I am a believer , but think evolution is the method God uses to create. I also think it all started with the Big Bang, but again, I believe God initiated the explosion.

disbelieve both the theories....simple reason..a bacterium reproduces on average every 20 minutes....you can change its enviorment, food input,and yes it will adapt to new stimulus..but upuntill now i have not seen that bacterium change its shape, or grow arms legs head..etc..thats billions of generations later!...who are these scientists kidding!?..and as a scientist no one has guts to speak their mind..or will be labelled as mental!..and biblical creation?...that would have done for those people 2000 years ago..not today....i do have a theory..if you are really interested..or anyone else for that matter..then feel free to contact me.....guarantee you its a very interesting one!..

I believe in evolution and also believe that there is a creator that also played a role (but not necessarily creationism).
