The bible says that such people have no excuse for adopting a view that excludes god. Romans 1:18 says that they are suppressing the truth in their unrighteousness because god’s existence is evident from what he has created. People do not believe there is a god because he is not present. Even though some people think that modern life evolved over millions of years, creationism is the most believable theory compared to evolution. Within the secular worldview, intelligent people are feverishly trying to work out clever-sounding ways to try to explain how the universe made itself, life made itself, and the diversity of life-forms on earth also made themselves. These evolutionists and scientists are operating on the law of cause and effect; that things do not happen without something sufficient to cause them to happen. But that ‘minor point’ is overlooked. People can not rely on all of these points they are making because they have no proof whatsoever, they did not live in the past to witness these things. Creationism, the belief that the universe and the various forms of life were created by god out of nothing. It is a response to modern evolutionary theory, which explains the emergence and diversity of life without recourse to the doctrine of god or any other divine power. Mainstream scientists generally reject creationism. Biblical creationists believe that the story told in the Genesis of God’s six-day creation of all things is literally correct. Others, such as old-Earth
Where do we come from? The creation of the world has been told through many different stories, and from a variety of religions across the world. The argument between evolution and creation has been debated back and forth for years. So how do we know which claim is correct? Has all life evolved from simple bacteria to all the species that appear today, or did life on earth begin with God's creation of Adam from dust and his partner Eve from adam’s rib bone. As a child I grew up attending church every Sunday with my grandparents, attending bible school, and taught the ways of the Lord. I wouldn’t know any different until my eyes were opened in biology class where the theory of Evolution is justified. There are different explanations to
Looking back at our history creationism was the first explanation of why humans exist today. Since the beginning of time Christianity has played a significant role in religion. Christianity started in Jerusalem and expanded into many different denominations across the world. Therefore, Christianity is a religion based off of Jesus Christ and God the creator of the earth. “Creationism stemmed from several religions and is the belief that a higher being or deity created everything living thing in nature through divine intervention

Creationism, it is theory that claims every element in the earth, including living species, are all created by the god as the Bible said, which denies the evolutional theory came up by Charles Darwin. Then, since Darwin’s evolutionary theory is testable and make solid predictions whereas creationism cannot be tested nor predict precisely, it has been considered as a pseudoscience. However, recently there is a Ph.D. Biochemist bring creationism theory back to the audience again, his name is Duane Tolbert Gish from University of California. Dr. Duane T. Gish has written several books and articles to support creationism, and the most famous one is Evolution: The Fossil Say No!, which published in 1978. In his article, he denied the evolutionism since he claims there is insufficient fossil evidence to support Darwin’s theory, and which would prove creationism is real.
After looking at the old-creationist’s views and their supporting arguments to their claims, the focus is now shifted towards young-earth creationism and why it is the one more likely to be true of the two theories.
Within many countries, notably the United States, there is a perpetual debate on whether creationism and intelligent design are valid alternative theories that should be embodied within the curriculum of science classes. ‘Through local school boards, sympathetic politicians, and well-funded organizations, a strong movement has developed to encourage the teaching of the latest incarnation of creationism—intelligent design—as a scientifically credible theory alongside evolution in science classes.’ Creationism is the rejection of evolution in favor of supernatural design (Pennock, 2003) and the belief that there is a God. Intelligent design stems from this understanding and defends that many biological functions are far too complex to have been created by evolution - in which a higher being was involved in designing them. Evolution holds a great significance in the education system today and is a fundamental idea within biology classes all around the world. The contending viewpoints suggest creationism and intelligent design should be taught parallel to the theory of evolution and hold similar significance within the science lessons of high school students. In turn, many biologists have fought against legal cases in the hope to cease the implementation of these substitute theories and to keep them out of biology classrooms.
Creationism is the theory that man, the earth, and the rest of the universe was originally created rather than randomly exploding from nothingness into chance existence. We reside on the surface of a small superbly crafted, autonomous self regulating space vehicle. Together with survival, conquest and death we bear witness to beauty, fragrances, love and music. Think about this. Mathematics, philosophy, springtime, depravity, farming, courtship, quasars, and iphones; all came from nothingness?, formed by chance......?
Evolution by natural selection is a result of evolution that leaves organisms well adapted to their current population but does not make a perfect organism (Smock 2014). Male guppies have shown over the past 200 years to have more or less colorful patterns decorating their bodies. Studies have shown that male guppies have more colorful body patterns in areas where there are no predators and more conservative colorations when in hostile waters (Futuyuma 2009). A 1980 study proved that once guppies were moved to safer waters, in the next later generations, more colorful male guppies began to appear (Futuyuma 2009). The guppy applies to the first rule of natural selection that there is variation in a trait in an organism in a population
In the paper, “Darwinism versus Creationism”, the author, Akudo Ejelonu, attempts to provide an overview of this controversial topic. Adopting a tone of objectivity and balance, Ejelonu begins her piece with the statement that “there is a difference between Darwinism and Creationism” -- the former concerned with science and the latter centered in “belief”. However, by the conclusion of the opening paragraph, her argument appears slanted in favor of the Creationist point of view:
Creation is evidence of a Creator. Every effect has a prior cause, moving back to an Unoriginated First Cause. Science has proven that nothing can only create nothing. Intelligent design demands a Designer. Using the Wesleyan Quadrilateral as a guide, creationism will here be examined through deferral to Scriptures, traditions, reason, and experience.
For a long time the human races have been leaving in a capsule in which it has been tough that we evolved from monkeys, but with all the technological advance and all the biology breakthrough, great scientists that use to support the theory of evolution and the science field in general have been force to confront an issue that the though they have resolved, the question of the origin of life. Due to the great amount of information like the irreducible complexity system, scientists had to go out looking for an answer to the crucial question of life, and many scientists have come to the same conclusion and result, the theory of evolution do not answer all the question, but what does it? The theory that can answer one of the most important
Creationism, the belief that God brought into being the universe and all life forms, has developed along several lines giving rise to a number of theological models accounting for humanity's presence in the world. These ideologies have religious faith and divine revelation (the domain of special revelation in theological terminology) in common.
As we all know there are many theories for the evolution of eukaryotic from prokaryotic, but how the prokaryotics came in existence or the beginning of the evolutionary process from one single cell to a complex structure, no one knows for sure, there are only theories for now. Both evolutionists and creationists use evidence to support their theories, but it is difficult to come up with proofs. No one was present as observer when life began, or when the life transformed from single cell prokaryotics to multi cellular eukaryotics neither model of origins can be reproduced in laboratory experiments.
The origin of life is a topic that is constantly debated on. There are numerous standpoints, all with their own evidence that backs up their claim. Some refer to a Creator as the source of all life, a view which is known as creationism. Progressive creationism is the belief that God made his creation over the course of millions of years. Through microevolution, his creation got its variety. This view is well supported by biblical and scientific evidence, which allows it to be more credible than other types of creationism.
Where do we come from? The creation of the world has been told in many stories all throughout time. The argument of evolution has been debated back and forth for years, leaving many people on one side or the other. So how do we know what claim is claimed correctly? Did life begin with the idea that living organism developed and diverse from the beginning of history of earth till now, or did the universe originate from a divine God in seven days? With the debate of creationism vs. evolution, many forget the theory that life or the universe has arisen, designed, was created by an intelligent entity.
