    in the debates between Creationists and evolutionists. Creationists declare that the eye’s irreducible complexity makes it impossible to be a result of evolution. Even Darwin himself admitted that it is absurd to say the eye is the result of evolution in his book, The Origin of Species. In spite of this, he still believed in the theory of evolution. In this article, Dr. Trevor D. Lamb claimed that the human eye evolved to be what it is now in less than 100 million years. Two types of eyes formed during

    published his book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, which proposed the theory of evolution. This book, along with others that followed, began the long dispute between evolutionist and creationist. Were we created by a supernatural Supreme Being, or did our creation occur purely by chance?

    statute” (Bryan). Bryan felt that the defense had no case because the trial was not to debate the constitutionality of a law, but to prove that said law was broken. The prosecution discovered that they needed to argue the irrationality of teaching evolution and claimed that it was only a mysterious theory and could not possibly have expert testimonies. The prosecution also argued that because science was the enabler of modern warfare, it was also a source of evil; evil should not be taught in schools

    more recent times, have led to court cases, heated arguments, and public debates. The major debate intended to be covered in this piece is that of whether or not evolution should be taught in classrooms. Also, if it is to be taught, should it be taught as fact or theory? It is also intended to present enough evidence to disprove evolution altogether and, as a result, make it much less than a theory, but actually the vain opinions of a man who chose not to accept the truth.

    Any point of contact with the scientific world in the 21st century will eventually lead one to the one of the most hotly contested topic in American education, that of evolution versus creationism. While the creationist point of view, as well as the evolutionary perspective, hosts a great variation of opinion amongst its supporters, Christianity is brought to the center stage time after time (Vuletic, 1994). Literal interpretation of the Book of Genesis’ account of creation falls contrary to the

    Evolution and Creation: The Truth Unfolding Evolution has been a vigorous topic of debate between creationists and evolutionists since Darwin first composed the idea. These debates rarely end with a compromise, but instead leave the theistic and atheistic worldviews tremendously segregated. There is evidence for both sides, and it often comes down to which side can present the most conclusive details. Evolutionists argue that science can not prove of intelligent design, while creationists argue

    The theory of evolution, as set forth by Charles Darwin in 1859, stated that all plant and animal life evolved over long periods of time from simple to more complicated forms through mutation and adaptation. He also taught that only the fittest of each species would survive. He further postulated that the first living cell evolved in a "warm warm little pond" and that it took billions of years for the present diversity of living things to evolve. At the time, it was thought that the few "missing

    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

    While the theory of evolution is very commonly accepted amongst most scholars and intellectuals, when the scientific facts used to 'support' it are closely examined, it becomes apparent that it is merely that: a theory. Inaccurate information, misguided philosophers, and in some cases, just plain ignorance, have all contributed to this 'scientific religion' that does nothing but lead people away from the true nature of our existence, the Genesis creation. The creation 'story' is much more than just
