Why is setting so important in a science fiction story?
In a science fiction story, the setting is often such a part of the plot that you might even think of it as a character. What would Star Wars be without the alien planets and outer space? Or the Pern novels without the planet and the destructive Threads?
What Metaphors are in the creation story?
Those who use a literal interpretation of the Bible and apply it where relevant, such as in Genesis and numerous other places where the creation is mentioned, do not find any metaphor in the creation story. It was written as an account or a witness of what happened in the beginning, although it obviously doesn't contain all the details. So from this perspective the answer would be none.
Why do some scientists say the creation story is made up?
Scientists who contend that the biblical story of creation is false are following the philosophy of naturalism which specifically excludes creation as something which can be considered. This is rather interesting in the light of modern science which developed in an era where people believed in God and so also believed in as a consequence an orderly universe which could be understood and studied. In more recent times some scientists have sought to use the unscientific philosophy of naturalism which explicitly excludes the creator, when science cannot disprove God by any endeavor deemed to be scientific. Other scientists, although certainly in a minority, do not find any conflict whatsoever between the facts of science and creation. These scientists do not regard the creation story as made up. This demonstrates it is a philosophical position which causes people to regard the creatin story as made up. It is also a philosophical statement, not a scientific one to regard certain things as facts which are not at ll proven but which are open to question and debate such as the age of the earth. It is explicitly the alleged age of the earth, which in recent times has had much contrary evidence brought against it, which is open to question by such data but which is used to call into the question the view that the earth was created by God around 6000 years ago.
What do the big bang theory and the Hindu creation story have in common?
Both the Big Bang theory and the Hindu creation story describe the origin of the universe and all living beings. They both suggest that everything began from a single point and expanded to form the vastness we see today. Additionally, both narratives involve the concept of cycles of creation and destruction.
What evidence is there against creationism?
Scientists generally have no argument with the notion of creation, as long as it does not conflict with known scientific facts. However, creationism is a dogmatic religious belief that insists that science is wrong and that the earth was created exactly as its proponents believe the Bible literally says it was.The Bible itself is the greatest enemy of these creationists. First of all, there are two, incompatible creation stories in Genesis, at 1:1-2:4a and at 2:4b-20. Creationists ought to decide which creation story it is that they support - the first one, which states that man, both male and female, was created last of all living things, or the second story that says that Adam was created first, then all other living things, and then Eve. 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), but he says we must scrupulously avoid reading into the second story any facts or notions taken from the first (and vice versa) if we mean to understand each story on its own terms. Anything less than this can not be compared with science.The second creation story appears to place creation some six thousand years ago, yet science has shown that the world is approximately 4.54 million years old. Some creationists accept the great age of the world, and say that the 'day' of the first creation story is really intended to mean an indefinite period, even though experts in the Hebrew language say there is no reason to interpret the text in this way. And a problem with this is that the scientific creation of the world was never so simple and linear that it could fit the creation story, no matter how interpreted.The first creation story also suffers from the problem that creation is supposed to have occurred in an impossible sequence. As the early Church Father, Origen, had to say on this (On First Principles, 3.1.1): "Now what man of intelligence will believe that the first and the second and the third day, and the evening and the morning existed without the sun and moon and stars? And that the first day if we may so call it, was even without a heaven? And who is so silly as to believe that God, after the manner of a farmer, planted a paradise eastward in Eden, and set in it a visible and palpable 'tree of life' ..."Much of the evidence against creationism is the evidence for cosmology and evolution. There is so much evidence that science has the explanation for what really happened, that creationism must remain a convenient religious discussion only.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

Has Science disproved the Creation story?
Yes. Creation is a story while evolution is science. The two can really never explain each other. You can not use science to explain any fairy tales.Creationists do think that their story does explain things.Answer:No, of course not. As the above answer states, the two cannot explain each other. Science cannot prove that God didn't create the Universe. A significant percentage of scientists believe in God as the creator and the agent of evolution, or without evolution.Answer:Just because some scientists believe in god, it doesn't mean that they believe in creation stories. The argument that because they believe in god must mean that they don't believe in evolution is illogical. And a creationist would first have to prove god exists and explain god's origins.
