What does Charles Stanley believe about the neanderthals?

Charles Stanley, a pastor and Christian author, likely believes that Neanderthals were part of the human family created by God, but they were not direct ancestors of modern humans.

What are the key ideas in the native American creation story?

Native Americans were united as one group of people in some ways, but "Native American" is a very broad category. The creation story differs from tribe to tribe. Try being more specific-- do you want to know about the Navajo, the Cherokee, the Mohawk, the Hopi, or perhaps the Anishinabee? There are so many tribes, and so many different creation stories. One area of commonality between Native origin stories is that of all the living things, man was created last. From the Native worldview, this does not mean that the creator must have become more practiced and therefore man is "supreme" among created beings. Native Americans generally believe that man is the youngest and least wise of all created things. This is part of the reason why Native American groups tend to view other animals with such respect. Man must live in harmony with and can learn much from the older animals.


What is Dr Charles Stanley view on the theory of Adam not being the first human created that there was a race before him?

A:I am unfamiliar with any theory of a race created before Adam and Eve. Dr Charles Stanley of the Southern Baptist Church holds a traditionalist view that Adam and Eve were the first human family. Science and history jointly offer a third position. They say that humans evolved long before the time attributed to Adam and Eve. The first humans did not live 'before' Adam and Eve, because Adam and Eve never really existed.


If the world started with Adam and Eve what does that make us all?

Where is a story about myth in the Bible?

A:A myth is defined as a legend with a supernatural element in it. Many believe that the Bible is, in its entirety, true and historical. On this view, the Bible does not contain myths. Another view is that the Books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy and Joshua are wholly or partly mythical, and that myths can be found throughout much of the Old Testament. On this view, the two stories of the creation are myths, as are the stories of the Flood, Tower of Babel, Abraham, the Exodus from Egypt, and many others.
