Creation Story And Creation : The Creation Of The World

Who made who? Did God create humans or did humans create god? At first thought one

There was only water and bare, empty land. In the center of this nothingness was a great mountain. This mountain stood tall and proud and it reached all the way into the heavens. At the very top of this mountain lived a pair of every kind of animal. In the center of this heaven grew a tree. This tree was not just any tree, it was the sacred tree of life, and it was not to be harmed in any way.

Every culture, religion, and beliefs have their own ideology on how the earth was created and the story of how the first person was formed. Many beliefs come from science and religion however there is also myths that have been passed down from generation to generation. So, who is right? How did the earth form? I believe that there is no right answer and that every myth gives a person something to believe in. If you take an in depth look at these myths, you will become mesmerized at some of the stories. Today we are going to dive into two myths from two different cultures.

The Bible and the Quran tell the story of the creation of the first man, Adam and first women Eve or in Arabic Hawa. The background behind Adam And Eve are similar but different in Islam and Christianity. It begins by telling the people how the world started and how we as humans were created. Christians believe that Adam was made from dust, Muslims believe that Adam was made from Soil. In the Bible, the creation of Eve says she was the only woman created from a man. The Qur’an does not say that Eve was created from Adam’s rib, but says that she was created from “of like nature.” The creation of Eve is not described in the Quran. The Quran says that Eve was created for Adam to have a “mate” and that she was also made from the same nature and soul. Direct quote from the Quran about woman “Treat women kindly. Woman has been created from a rib and the most curved part of the rib is the uppermost. If you try to straighten it, you will break it and if you leave it alone, it will remain curved. So, treat women kindly” (Al-Bukhari and Muslim). The rib reflects that all women differed from Adam and was unique. The bible describes Eve made from Adams rib to be Adams companion. Directly quoted from the bible “And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man” (Genesis 2:22). They were both made to fulfill each other and to not be alone on earth. The similarity of the two religions is that they

People have contemplated many different theories about the creation of the world. There are two versions that rival each other and those are the religious and the scientific version.

As I said before, humans all have unique worldviews. One of the questions typically answered by someone's worldview is the origin and purpose of man. This meaning of life and origin of the universe are explained by numerous religions. In Christianity, it is held that God created man and the universe. I also believe God created the universe. However, I define him as a benevolent creator who is not bound by Science but instead affirmed by Science. For instance, in Genesis, we know that God spoke the universe into existence, “And God said, let there be light, and there was light” (Genesis 1:3 NIV). In Science, we know from the existence of Microwave Background Radiation that the universe came into existence from a large explosion commonly referred to as the Big Bang. Now we know the universe is

Between the religions of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, there are many similarities and differences that are dealt within each of them. Throughout these religions, we can compare and contrast different aspects of each religion such as some of the basic facts of their histories and some of the religious beliefs each of them have in common and or make them different from each other. In the country known as Palestine, the religions known as Christianity and Judaism were founded each by different men. Jesus was the man who began the creation of Christianity and a man named Moses was the founder who established the religion of Judaism. In the country of Saudi Arabia the

In order to explain creation, the Hebrews follow what the bible says and turn to God. Within this culture it is said that God created the world in seven days. During these seven days, God created the light, sky, land, oceans, plants, sun, moon, stars, birds, fish, sea creatures, land animals, and people. On the seventh day God rested and looked down in amazement at all he had created. Today, people worship God and follow his ten commandments in their lives. Even though there are many new religions that have branched off

In Genesis, the first book of The Bible the Christian and Jewish creation story is told. God spoke and his Word was done. He made the heavens and the earth. He made light and drove away the dark. On the earth he created the waters and lands and man and beast.

Although Christianity, Islam and Judaism are all religions that grew from the same central idea of one divine god named Abraham in the general time zone of 2500 BC, and in the holy city of Jerusalem, they are all very different from each other. Christianity, Islam and Judaism are all similar religions in some ways but are also very different from each other in other ways.

In Judeo-Christian tradition God created the cosmos and he said it was good. God created everything. “Yahweh” is a form of God’s name in Hebrew which is best translated to “I am who I am”. God is this mysterious divine spirit that was created before time and lives forever. God is the “tremendom”, the holy, fearful and overwhelming mystery that people can only wonder about and try to wrap their heads around. Jews and Christians believe that human beings are created in the image of God. Everyone is created perfect and equal despite physical appearances. Humans have free will like God. In a way we are god over ourselves in the way that we govern and make decisions for ourselves. God also dwells in us and around us. God created human beings good.

Where do we come from you may ask? There are various amounts of theories, but there has been one with a vast amount of

We all know that our mothers and fathers gave us birth, and grandmothers and grandfathers gave our parents birth. However, what about the beginning? What does the beginning look like? Who created the sky, the earth, the mountains and rivers, the plants, the animals, and the human beings? How was the world created? What happened to the creator? These questions have puzzled and are asked by every people. However, no one has yet found the answers, and I have heard people saying that the creation of life is as impossible as the natural creation of an airplane from a stack of waste. With the willingness of knowing the self, ancient people tried to create mythological stories

The Question of Origin – Similarly to Genesis of the Bible, the Quran offers verses describing creation. “Surely, your Lord is Allah who created the heavens and the earth…" (Yunus 10:3) The Quran also tells us that Allah is the creator of all, including man. There are very few differences between the Islamic and Christian views of Creation, as both views accept that everything was created by the Lord.

How were human beings created? How has life come to be? How was the earth created? These are some very important questions that humans have tried to answer for ages. In an attempt to answer these questions, different cultures around the world developed different beliefs. Some believe that they are many gods watching over them, while others believe that there is only one supreme God. Some believe that humans were created by an explosion while others believed that a God or gods created them. Today, I will be analyzing two different creation stories, Genesis, the Christian creation story and “The Creation and Emergence” story by the Jicarilla Apaches. While some differences between the two are evident, the similarities are noticeable.
