Does the conflict between Evolution and Creation really matter?
Botzk
There is no real conflict between evolution, which is a fact ( the theory of evolution by natural selection explains much of this fact ), and creation, which is a myth. The problem comes from people ( religious creationists in this case ) who think they can impose their ideology on other and distort reality because they would do anything to promote their beliefs.
Another answer:
Yes, the conflict does matter. After all, it affects both education, and through education, our future ability to perform scientific research. If creationists get their way, then the teaching of magic will be legalized at the expense of the teaching of science. Students will graduate who have a warped understanding of the basic principles that makes science such an effective tool. In the end, this degradation of standards would cause a nation to lose the ability to compete technologically, industrially and economically. Allowing creationism to affect education could, ultimately, bankrupt a nation.

∙ 8y agoYes. Divine Creation (Genesis ch.1 and 2) states that God created the universe. This teaches us that God exists, that our lives and the world are not random, and that the created things may be assumed to contain vast wisdom in their beautiful and purposeful design. (In recent decades, this wisdom has indeed been partially revealed, through increasingly powerful microscopes.)Evolution through random mutations, on the other hand, may be understood as implying that life is an accident, that perceived beauty and wisdom are ultimately purposeless, and that our instinctive yearning for the Eternal is just an electrical impulse in our brain.

What is the concept of God that says there is one God who does not involve himself in his creation is?
I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but I think you are referring to theistic evolution. This states that God created matter and then left it to evolution to finish.
Can evolution be denied?
Any proposition can be denied by those who do not wish to accept it, no matter how strong the evidence is. However, evolution can not rationally be denied. Scientists say they regard it as fact.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

What is the name of Some who thinks science made earth?
Are there people that actually think that science made the Earth? I doubt it. But there are people who think the Earth was created not by supernatural processes (like God) but by natural processes (matter, energy and time) alone. These are usually called atheists, or in the debate between Evolution and Creation, they are often called evolutionists.
How is it possible to create new materials but not new matter?
The creation of new materials is just manipulation of what we already have, its not the literal creation of matter, just modification of what is already existing.
What are the different views of science and religion on the origin of life?
In science and religion, there are two (predominantly believed) theories on the origin of life, as well as mankind. These are the creation theory and the evolution theory. In many cultures, evolution, as a theoretical concept is supported for the purposes of science (which is a human method of discovering how the universe works through experimentation and research). The biggest difference between the two theories is the belief in life as something that ultimately originated from non-living material. The evolution theory, which most commonly rejects supernatural belief, believes that the ultimate beginning of life came from non-living matter. This is called abiogenesis. The matter from which life evolves from can be one or several basic organic compounds, although the root drive of this evolution is unknown. The creation theory, however, teaches that life originated from an intelligent being, typically a higher power such as a God. This means that in theism, life did not come from something that was of some sort of intelligence and not living.
