Answer: The 'Creation Story' is important to Christians as it explains who God is and who humans are -God is the almighty, all-wise creator and we are His creation, made in His image and accountable to Him. The Bible account also explains that sin, death, pain and suffering are not part of God's original 'very good' creation, but came afterwards as a result of sin - disobedience and rebellion against God. This also brings with it (for those Christians who believe the whole Bible) the realization that the 'nature red in tooth and claw' of evolution are not God's way of creating.

Why is the creation important to Christians?

Not only to Christians but to mankind as a whole - it is an innate part of our nature. Still today, there is a debate as to the start of our being here and where we will go when we inevitably die. The Bible presents the 'Creator God' event while Darwinism and Evolution present alternative ideas to the beginnings of the physical universe.

Why do Christians disagree with the interpretations of the creation story?

There is not just one, but two quite different creation stories in the Book of Genesis, at Genesis 1:1-2:4a and 2:4b-20. Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that pious readers, believing that the text cannot contain contradictions, ignore the major disjunctions between the two creation stories and tend to treat the second story as the fuller, more detailed account of the creation of man (and woman) that the first story simply reported - but this is not the case. He says that if we mean to understand each story on its own terms, we must scrupulously avoid reading into the second story any facts or notions taken from the first, and vice versa. For example, in reading about the origin of man in the story of the Garden of Eden, we must not say or even think that man is here created in God's image or that man is to be the ruler over the animals.There is no wonder that Christians disagree about the meaning of the biblical creation. The stories themselves beg to be misunderstood. For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
