The Origin of Man and The Universe

Charles Darwin (1809-1882) was a British naturalist who became famous for his theories in evolution. He believed all species evolved form a common ancestor and that evolution happened through a process called natural selection, which meant survival of the fittest. In the BNW, the different castes of people were made from a common ancestor (a single individual). Thus, creating hundreds of his or her clones. Since the directors believed in survival of the fittest, they made the best kind of people so that they may live long in a specific environment.

Since the beginning of the human race there has been a lingering question as to the origins of man and how all living things acquired their characteristics. The two main theories that arose over time were Creationism and Evolution, both of which provided very distinct answers to this question. Creationism based its answer on the idea of a supernatural power or being that created the entire universe, man and the numerous other organisms that live within it. While, Evolution theorizes that all living things have the potential to change and grow over time into something new and different. So in other words, one theory suggests that humans and all the organisms on Earth are the result of divine design, while the other indicates that they

Charles Darwin was an influential ideologist, known as the father of evolution. He created the theory of evolution in which species change overtime through what he called natural selection. Natural selection is the process when organisms that are better adapted to their environment survive and pass on their genetics. In The Descent of Man, Darwin explains various topics such as the similarities between races, the relevance of evolution in society, and the process of sexual selection. Ideas of The Descent of Man, were explored before Darwin, but what sets him apart is that he wanted to find the origin of man and ape as opposed to just stating similarities and differences. The theories that Darwin created contributed knowledge to evolution as

In the book Brave New World by Aldous Leonard Huxley, there are many topics covered about the world, freedom, and men. One of the topics discussed is the theory of evolution. There are many arguments presented about how the world and people evolved. There are different arguments created by creationists and evolutionists. For the creationists, everything is created by a creator such as God and that matter was formed by him to create the earth and even people on earth as well as other creatures in the universe. On the other hand, the evolutionists do not believe in creation, and they argue that everything evolved from their old forms to their new forms now. Another topic presented is the discussion about freedom which evolutionists believed not to exist since matter is not free and it is governed by laws of nature and that includes people and all living things and non-living things in the whole universe. However, creationists would tell otherwise. This proves that evolutionists and creationists have a different perspective in how all things are formed and how they are going to be.

"New standards pointed out about that discrepancies in a molecular evidence has challenged the evolutionary theory of common ancestry of all living things and that whether microevolution can be extrapolated to explain macro evolutionary changes is controversial".(LeBeau, 2007)

If you take the bible literally you will know that the earth was created in six literal days. The world was spoken into existence by God’s Word. The bible says in Hebrews 11:3 that through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. As christians we believe through faith that this is the true account of the earth but, evolution teaches the exact opposite. Evolution turns the creation event into a process that spanned billions of years and is still not complete.

Evolutionism is the belief that all living things on Earth have developed from an earlier form. It states that humans have progressively advanced over time through a process called evolution. Creationism on the other hand, states that the world and human beings were created by God.The main problem that arises is when we have determine which of the two theories is correct and we should inclined to. Although evolution seems more credible due to the amount of evidence it has, neither theory presents ideas that are entirely clear and known with certainty. Natural selection is the only known theory that can explain the existence of adaptation in nature. However, this does not mean that natural selection is the driving force throughout evolution,

The argument of Creation vs. Evolution has been debated for quite sometime. Since Darwin’s theory of Evolution by Natural Selection was published, some of those that thought the world and its inhabitants was made by a creator now began to think differently. Evolution began to make sense, there was evidence of certain types of species evolving (as in the finches in the galapogos islands as observed by Darwin) however, with creationism there was no evidence, it was all based on faith. Although Darwin’s theory stands at the forefront for the belief in Evolution especially for those that tend to lean towards this side of the argument, there have been and still is many who support the argument of Design or what is referred to as the teleological argument. Philosophers such as St. Thomas Aquinas and William Paley wrote about the belief in there being a creator in their famous works. David Hume, William Derham and Richard Bentley to name a few also wrote about intelligent design. I believe in Creationism. I believe that the universe and everything in it came into existence because of a higher intelligence and not solely from a primordial soup and if in fact everything did start out as a soup, all the ingredients for this soup was put together by the head chef. In researching this topic, I believe that creationism and evolution (micro-evolution) can co-exist without one absolutely refuting the other. I believe this designer created existence in such a way that evolution is

In the world today, scientists are having an argument between creation and evolution. Which one is more trustworthy and accurate? The answer is both. From the beginning, the earth’s creatures evolved from their common ancestors because of natural selection and different types of isolations. But in creation, the Holy Bible says God created different types of creatures, also giving them adaptation skills so that competition between organisms will occur, the fittest will survive, and bring their traits on to the next generation.

In the origin of the species Darwin argues that every species adapt in order to survive. Natural selection is the form where parents transfer what is necessary to live in a certain environment and with time the descendants start changing accordingly to the necessities to stay alive. Darwin mentions that those species that change will survive and prosper, but on the other hand, the species incapable of changing will die and become

Macroevolution and microevolution use different approaches. Macroevolution looks at the classification of species and subspecies whereas micro-evolution takes on a more reductionist approach. Macro-evolution is a large change over time and focuses more on speciation resulting from separated gene pools. Its focus is between species and their common ancestors rather than within species. Microevolution is essentially part of macroevolution, just on a different time scale. Small evolutionary changes over time make up macroevolution and consists of mutations, changes in gene flow, genetic drift, and selection processes. These processes can result in speciation over a large amount of time.

Chapters 1 and 2 of Genesis teach us about the natural world and that God created everything. The argument of evolution can be proved wrong reading the first chapter of Genesis. “In the beginning, God created the heavens and earth” (Genesis 1:1, NLT) He created the world in six days, on each day he would add something new to his list of creations such as light, darkness, sky, seas, plants and animals, and finally man and woman “On the seventh day God had

Each in which scripture was created to have no relation at all. Neo-creationism evolution are those who see creationism in a different light. Its goal is to re-structure how life began from a non-religious perspective with no regards to scripture. Agnostic evolution is the belief that it is impossible in our current times to know the truth in regards to God and the future life with which Christians and other religious believers are concerned or over focused with. Materialistic evolution is the belief that the development of life was a product of a blind, undirected process of matter and energy and that God played absolutely no role in guiding that process.

Evolution has been debated for many years. Most scientists assume evolution to be true, but it is not officially proven. Evolution is known as “fact and theory,” because it is a fact that organisms have changed over time, but the mechanism that changes those organisms is uncertain. One of the major debates regarding evolution is the belief in creationism. Creationists believe that the Universe and organisms on Earth were all created by a divine power. There are also some theories in which creationism and evolution coexist. One idea is that the divine being who created the world used evolution as a method. Another idea is that science and religion are actually the same thing and religion explains the unknown parts of science. For example, science says that the world couldn’t have been created in seven days, but one of God’s days may not be the same length

The debate between creation and evolution has been around for a long time. For much of it, it has presented a choice between the two. Some claim that you either believe in God or evolution, not both. Others, that you have to choose young earth creationism simply because theistic evolution is not a viable option. Still more present young earth creationism as a naive understanding of both the Bible and science. However, since each position has evidence in support of it and against it, it is in no way true that any of them present us with an undeniable position of definite accuracy. Furthermore, the idea that there is only a choice between creation and evolution is false. Indeed, there are more positions than even creationism and theistic
