What are the differences and similarities between creationism intelligent design and evolution?
The first two say "gee - it's so complicated somebody must have planed it" along with the extra ego trip that says that we're pretty special.
Evolution says that one single rule can generate complexity from simplicity.
(The rule is let the weak weed themselves out - we call it death.) Forget the God argument ... He could have invented evolution too. In fact, it would take a superior sort of entity to do do so.

What are the alternatives to evolution and how do they differ from the theory of evolution?
The main alternatives to evolution are creationism and intelligent design. Creationism posits that a divine creator is responsible for the origin of life and species, while intelligent design suggests that certain features of living organisms are best explained by an intelligent cause rather than natural selection. These alternatives differ from the theory of evolution in that they do not rely on the scientific principles of natural selection and genetic variation to explain the diversity of life on Earth.
What The work of which scientist caused controversy that still exits today?
The work of Charles Darwin, particularly his theory of evolution by natural selection, caused controversy during his time and continues to be a point of contention between proponents of evolution and those who advocate for creationism or intelligent design. The debate between evolution and creationism is still ongoing in various contexts, such as education, public policy, and religious beliefs.
How does evolution involve creationism?
Evolution does NOT involve creationism.Evolution is a testable and therefore provable explanation as to how the diversity of life on earth has happened.Creationism is a religious viewpoint and therefore a mater of faith.AnswerI agree with the above. Evolution does NOT involve Creationism. Evolution is a branch of biological science and thus rejects "supernatural" claims such as those of Creationism, does not need to consider them. Creationism, often hanging on Genesis, the first book of the Bible, predates scientific inquiry and the scientific method and so is thus rejected by science and thus evolutionary science. In the public spotlight, the so-called Evolution-Creation "controversy" and all the on-stage arguments and debates might make it seem as though Evolution and Creationism (and Intelligent Design) have a lot to do with one another, but I doubt Creationism gets much mention at all in scientific laboratories and scientific conferences (it can't because it hasn't got anything to say about the real world.)
What are the similarities and differences in evolutionary theory?
Similarities in evolutionary theory include the concept of natural selection driving the change in species over time and the idea that species share a common ancestry. Differences can arise in the specifics of how evolution occurs (such as gradualism versus punctuated equilibrium) and in the mechanisms that drive evolution (such as genetic drift versus gene flow).
Does creationism disprove adaptation?
No, creationism and adaptation are not mutually exclusive concepts. Creationism is a belief in a divine creator, while adaptation is a scientific process by which organisms change over time to better survive in their environment. Many people believe that adaptation is evidence of intelligent design by a divine creator.

What are the similarities between evolution and creationism?
There are none. Both agree that life forms exist, but are diametrically opposed as to how it got here.
Is intelligent design the same as creationism?
For the most part, yes, but there are some key differences. Intelligent Design (ID) does not mention who is the creator or deity. Creationism is based strictly on the Bible teachings in the book of Genesis. Either way, they both believe that humans are too complex to have been designed by evolution or natural selection.

What are the differences between evolution creationism and intelligent design?
All three teachings purport to have some bearing on the origination of man - but that's about the extent of the similarities. Evolutionary theory is the scientific model that explains how all modern species diverged from common ancestors. Creationism is the school of thought that teaches that (some interpretation of) holy scripture is literally true, and that mankind was created by God or gods, specially and separate from all other lifeforms. Intelligent design in its most general form does not reject evolutionary theory, but states that a guiding intelligence must have been involved in the divergence of lifeforms as they approached modernity. It may be seen as an attempt by religiously-minded people to reconcile their theistic beliefs with scientific findings, but it may also be seen as an attempt by creationists to insert their religious beliefs into science. It has been said that intelligent design is actually a form of creationism in disguise, and a response to the outlawing of the teaching of creationism in public schools. Some proponents of intelligent design (seemingly) accept the notion of common descent, while others outright reject it, reducing their intepretation of intelligent design to a more fundamental form of creationism. The basic teachings of intelligent design vary, depending on the person you ask, or the time and context in which you ask.

What are Arguments against intelligent design behind evolution?
Every argument against evolution falls into several categories. 1.) It could disprove something if it were true, but that something would not be evolution. 2.) There are no arguments for Intelligent design, all they have are arguments against evolution (and sometime plate tectonics, cosmology, mathematics's, or oceanography). 3.) Every single argument made against evolution or any other natural science in defence of intelligent design (also known as creationism as determined by a conservative Christian judge) has been used as an argument against intelligent design and backing up the science that the creationists are trying to ignore. Summary: Take any creationist claim, summarize it, and take the reverse of that and you get the scientific arguments against intelligent design and for evolution.
