The manmade idea called the Theory of Evolution had its heyday in the Age of Enlightenment of the 19th and 20th Centuries. With advancements in the fields of science, this theory is being challenged on multiple fronts. Today, there is much debate on fundamental laws governing the entire universe. This is the Anthropic Principle: Many in the fields of mathematics and physics agree that from the very beginning - the Big Bang of some 15 billion years ago - these fundamental laws had to already be in place, and set exactly, to allow our universe to exist the way it does in our time - with us humans here. Indeed, mathematically, it is beyond improbability that this universe of ours would randomly come into existence with just the right properties to allow humans to exist. Life therefore requires a Lawgiver.

On the biological front, scientists are finding that intelligent design exists in everything they examine. In my school days, the simple cell was just that - an organism of matter with some vaguely identifiable parts within. Today, under very strong microscopes, we can see that the cell is a complex information-processing machine with tens of thousands of organelles and vastly complex protein molecules, each arranged in finely-tuned algorithms of communication and synthesis. And our human bodies contain some 60 trillion of these, which store information in DNA, replicated also in various forms of RNA, following the mathematical laws of information. To many, this shows Intelligent Design requiring a Designer and not random evolutionary change.

Just consider the human eye, which Charles Darwin, who fathered the modern theory of evolution, admitted that such complex organs as the eye would be difficult to explain using his theory. Or how about creating life from non-life as scientists have been attempting for decades now. Most have come to the conclusion that the law of Biogenesis is correct. Life can only come from life and requires a life-giver or Creator.

To conclude, one should also ask, how does evolution explain the mystery of human consciousness? Why do we know we know? Or how about dreams/visions or even the modern phenomenon of NDEs - near death experience. Without taking into account the God-given "Spirit in Man" (see Job 32:8 and 1 Corinthians 2:11), it is impossible IMHO. Yet rest assured, there will always be some scientists who, not wanting to believe in God, will remain determined to come up with some explanation which excludes Divine creation. Believers call these "fanciful theories" which attempt to explain the complexities of life. Reading most/all of these simply requires a huge leap in logic as they assume a mathematically improbable event "just happened to happen." For me then, Creation has the much stronger case.

How do naturalistic evolution and special creation differ in regard to this change?

Evolution means changes over time to fit and live in the environment. Special creation means the beliefs that a divine being caused all of creation as in the Book of Genesis. It is a literal translation and not based on scientific facts.


What is the various Christian and secular viewpoints with regard to evolution and creation?

The Catholic Church accepts the fact of evolution with the proviso that their god was the prime mover. The Anglican Church accepts evolution but is not fully sure of its cause. Some Evangelical churches do not understand evolution and fully believe that their god created everything 6,000 - 10,000 years ago. The secular viewpoint is that creation is one of the religious ideas thought up about 3,000 years after people had first learned to farm, knew nothing of the workings of the universe and had no idea about bacteria or viruses. Evolution, of course, says nothing about the origin of life, as creation does, just its path over the past 3 billion+ years.


Can evolution be denied?

Any proposition can be denied by those who do not wish to accept it, no matter how strong the evidence is. However, evolution can not rationally be denied. Scientists say they regard it as fact.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

How do Jews think the earth was created?

Judaism teaches that the story of creation tells us WHAT HaShem did in regard to creating the universe, NOT HOW He did it. For the most part, Jews (including religious Jews), find no conflict between the story of creation and the Big Bang Theory.

What are the creations in Luzon?

There is no creation of Luzon as it is plain mythology.AnswerSome will regard all religious creation stories as pure mythology, and the creation story of Luzon should be viewed in that light. The Ifugao people of Luzon believe that the sun god created the world in the cosmic battle between the sky world and the underworld. The story then tells how the first man and woman were created from a piece of bamboo that was the child of the the land breeze and the sea breeze.

What do scientists say about creation story?

Some regard it as irrelevant to science. However, there are many highly qualified scientists who know it to be the true history of the world and see the evidence for this in their scientific studies. They find nothing to contradict it in the scientific evidence.
