The narrative of Divine Creation, which is contained in Genesis ch.1 and 2, means that God created the universe. This teaches us that God exists, that our lives and the world are meaningful, 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.

Charles Darwin theory of evolution explicitly rejected the dogma of special creation?
Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution by Natural Selection did not explicitly reject the theory of special creation. It implicitly rejected it. Darwin did not directly attack or reject special creation in his book "The Origin of Species," where he first outlined his theory. Instead, by claiming that all life evolved from simple organisms, through natural process, in response to their environment, he advanced a theory that explained how plant and animal life without divine intervention. Because special creation explicitly cites divine intervention as the mechanism for the development of plant and animal life, Darwin's theory undermined its central premise.

Why was the theory of evolution so difficult for people to consider?
Because 1) the theory of Evolution (humans evolving from simpler forms of life) challenges a traditional Judeo-Christian religious belief that humans were created by a supreme being at a specific moment in time and 2) the majority of Americans claim to be either Jewish or Christian (creating a large body of belief in divine creation.) Within the Scientific 'truth-system', this 'divine creation' belief is a theory. Within the Christian 'truth-system' it must be fact. (From a Christian perspective the belief in divine creation is one of the fundamental supports to the structure of Christian beliefs.)
