Essay: Evidence Of Biblical Creation Against Odds Of Evolution

I completely believe in evolution, my Dad always answered my questions with a well thought out answer, but my Mom would always quote the Bible. When I was young I would ask my dad what his perspective was on Christianity, he said that when he was young, his family would go to church, they would pray, and go to Bible studies, however, he did not think about evolution and Christianity in general until he was in college. My mom, on the other hand, was raised believe in Christianity, she is the reason that I go to Rehoboth. My views are different from both of my parents, I think that we need evidence to prove anything, we cannot believe in an old book that was written by copious amounts of people. In science there needs to be proof for a hypothesis to be considered real, in other words, if I were to say that the earth was a black hole, I would need proof or evidence, that is clearly not true. I have absolutely no evidence to concur that the earth is a black hole, although we do have clear evidence of evolution. A vestigial organ is an exceptional example of evolution and adaptation. We as humans have numerous vestigial organs, one of the most well known vestigial organ is our goose bumps. These bumps were once used to make ourselves appear larger when we were frightened. Also, they were once used to maintain a constant core body temperature by trapping a layer of air in between our skin and hair.

If ten bystanders were to witness the same crime, how many different interpretations of the scene would there be? All the opinions and viewpoints that arise from one scenario are very dependant on different variables. The same can be applied when analyzing the book of Genesis. One controversial topic is whether to take it literally or figuratively. Some of the different arguments supporting and opposing either side include; the original beliefs of the interpreter, the historical time frame, the different genres of writing in the book, and more. There are many perceptions of the book of Genesis being literal or figurative.

The riddle of the origin of man has been subject to many ponderings and theories for thousands of years. In America, two theories concerning this timeless question have driven a spike through the general populace. These two beliefs, Evolution and Christianity, have driven a riff through the American populace and fueled several debates and conflicts over which is the truer theory. Incidents such as the decision of the Kansas school board to ban schools from including the Evolution Theory from their curriculum are becoming a tragically frequent and threaten to escalate if not checked soon. However, there is a growing belief in America today in the possibility of believing that evolution is an inescapable fact while still

Primordial soup hypothesis: Life began about three and a half billion years ago when amino acids lead to the beginning of life in a body of water. Alexander Oparin in 1924. The chemicals were like “soup” and mixed together to make proteins. There was an experiment that showed that organic molecules could be formed from non-organic atoms. Called the Miller-Urey experiment, that proved that it was possible.

On the second day God creates the sky, which is described as separating ‘the waters above from the waters below' and the sky is named heaven

word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by

Commonly, religious discussion turns to the subject of origins. There are two reasons for this: firstly, there are those with a literal or semi-literal interpretation of the Bible (or other relevant holy book) who remain convinced that the world was created in the recent past looking more or less as it does today. Obviously, this issue must be resolved before the existence or nature of the deity can even begin to be discussed! Secondly, even those with the more common, nonliteral interpretation of the creation story often use arguments that aren't valid to insist on direct interference by a deity at one or more points in the past. And while thanks to its flexibility this "tinkering" God theory cannot be ruled out to the same degree as

Life has continually perplexed and fascinated individuals since the dawn of mankind. The subject’s complexity is so great even over the course of human existence only a minute fraction of its mysteries have been unraveled. A phenomenon which has always intrigued scientists is the origin of life on Earth, and in recent years significant advancements have been made in the understanding of this enigma. This essay will briefly outline two theories regarding life’s origin on Earth to further comprehend why an explanation for this phenomenon has been so difficult to reach.

The creation vs. evolution debate is a question of origins. How did we get here? Were we created or did we evolve randomly? Are we the product of purposeful intelligence or are we merely the end result of countless cosmic accidents? What does the evidence say? Well in this paper I am writing in regards to creation and what I learned and what I believe that is true evidence that God was the one that created us in his image, so here we go. In genesis 1:1 its tells us in the Beginning God created the Heaven and the earth. So, a lot of evolutionist believe in an old earth by the rocks and the layers in what the rocks have, but as a creationist we believe in a young earth and that we are a couple thousand years old and that God was the one that created it in 6 days. Also, in John 1:1 it says in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The creation account is found in Genesis 1–2. The language of the Genesis account makes it clear that all of creation was formed from nothing in six literal 24-hour periods with no time periods occurring between the days. This is evident because the context requires a literal 24-hour period. The description specifically describes the event in a manner that a normal, common-sense reading understands as a literal day: “And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day” (Genesis 1:5). Further, each sentence in the original language begins with the word “and.” The Genesis account reveals that the Word of God

In spite of this, how could life possibly emerge? The answer is within the skies. It rained for millions of years and seas of lava eventually turned into seas of water, becoming a gateway for life to possibly emerge. Along with this are the other goldilocks conditions such as energy and chemical elements, mostly carbon which Earth is in abundance of. So now that the Earth became a hospitable place in which life could emerge, how did it really emerge? Life emerged under the oceanic vents where simple elements formed amino acids that are keys to creating protein and nucleotides that are keys to creating DNA— the deoxyribose nucleic acid is the key to life as it contains genetic information for what is to come. Life came from the oceanic vents which had enough heat energy and chemical energy to form the first prokaryotes— the simplest form of cells without a nucleus and was created through photosynthesis. Then it evolved into something that is more complex which is the eukaryote which now has a nucleus and organelles that are crucial to life. As life in water emerged and the eukaryotes bonded together creating multi-celled organism, the development of brains made it possible for life to move to land. This sudden event created mammals which unlike aquatic animals, have fur and the more obvious qualities of life. These qualities are what scientists call as

Creation vs evolution has always been a big topic. Christianity vs. evolution is mainly a question of where did we come from? Or how has everything come into existence. Many people believe in evolution because they simply think it makes sense (which it does not) or because they refuse to believe in Christianity. People who believe in Christianity believe in it by faith. The Bible is the main source of information on Christianity. Evolution is a theory that the world and everything we know today came to be by chance or accident. The people who believe in evolution believe in it the same way that Christians believe in Christianity by Faith. Evolution is not based on religion like Christianity is but on solely observation

The theory that suggest that in some bodys of water is where life began is primordial soup theory. Because the chemicals combined from the atmosphere also with the energy to make amino acids which basically what proteins are built of. After the species would evolve.This theory was presented in 1920 by a chemist named A.I Oparin and an English Geneticist J.B.S. Haldane. While mixing gas that they were believed to be there on the first earth: Methane, Ammonia,water, hydrogen, no oxygen. Chemist Stanley Miller and physicist Harold decided on this experiment to test the primordial soup theory. After they mixed the gases they sparked the gases to show lightning. What they found were amino acids. Oparin and Haldane felt that with the blend of gasses in the air and the strength from lightning strikes, amino acids could suddenly form in the seas.

Oparin hypothesized that the origin of life arose from Earth in its primitive state, these conditions allowed the production of inorganic molecules, which slowly transitioned into organic substances (RF). The temperature of the earth would have also been several hundred degrees high to initiate changes in hydrocarbons, correlating with Paneth’s experiment (high temperatures to facilitate the breaking of hydrocarbons into free radicals) (RF) and Russell and Hall’s model. According to Russell and Hall’s model, life emerged in hot, reduced, basic and sulfuric waters opposed with colder, more oxidized, iron-bearing water. (Russell and Hall) They proposed the origin of life would have taken place in the deep Hadean ocean floor. The difference between acidity, temperatures and redox potential of the waters would have facilitated a gradient of pH, temperature and redox potential, becoming sustainable over geological time-scales, providing the continuity for conditions that were favourable to organic chemical reactions required for the origin of life.

The issue of origins has been long debated over the past century. Groups exist who believe anything from strictly the Bible creation account to abiogenesis to anything in between. Proving and/or adapting theories on the origin of the Earth and the universe, has been an ongoing process since the beginning of the twentieth century. The debate concerning what children should be taught in school has been ongoing for nearly as long. Christian scientists have both Christian beliefs
