Do you believe in Creation

Answer 1

Even if we ignore the creation stories of other religions, there are still two quite different creation stories in the Book of Genesis. In the first (Genesis 1:1-2:4a), God created all the other animals for man to have dominion over, and only then created man, both male and female. In the second (Genesis 2:4b-2:20), God created man (Adam) as the first act of creation, followed only later by creation of all the other animals as possible companions for man. The female human (Eve) was created much later than Adam. I believe that neither of these stories is literally true.

Of course, I could follow many modern Christians and believe that while the universe, the world itself and all life forms on it owe their existence to natural forces, but that God guided those natural forces. However, Stephen Hawking, in his latest book, The Grand Design, says that because there are laws such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing, with no role for God. I do not need to believe in God or in creation. For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

Answer 2

Yes, based both on tradition and on outside evidence. It's a tradition stretching back to the first man, passed down from him to Noah, and recorded in the Torah by Moses (Deuteronomy 31:24) at God's dictation (Exodus 24:12). Those wishing to see other evidence may find these links useful:
