How can mankind be the stewards of God's creation?

Anyone can be stewards (or managers) of creation. You just need to look after God's creation properly and then you are His steward. Do things like looking after the environment, caring for animals, maybe possibly SAVING animals extend a kind hand to a fellow human being, etc..

You just need to provide common sense and be thrifty when necessary. But remember, this world is for mankind and not mankind for this world. Natural resources can and should be used and managed properly.

Where do we see Mathematics in God's work of Creation?

God made 7 days

God said, you shall labour for six days, and on the 7th day you shall rest.

God said rest on the 7th day which is (Saturday The Sabbath)

God will pour out 7 vials upon the earth, in the last days.

The Godhead:The Trinity - The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.

The Bible is full of numbers that the Lord uses, too many for me to remember.

Eveything about us, our world as well as the universe involves mathematics. Absolutely everything can be broken down into a mathematical equation. The trees, mountains, stars, the air we breathe. The existence of math is in itself an act of creation. We define mathematic's as ' ...any form of calculation..' whether we write it, say it or think it, we are alway's using math. From picking up a glass of water to throwing a football we are alway's calculating. We know that the speed of light is about 186,000 miles per second, human's did not invent or create this eqation, we discovered it. This means that the equation was already in place long before humans came into being just waiting to be found. Where did the math come from? God is a mathetician of the highest degree, it was Him that figured out just how big the earth should be, how much air and water it could hold, how much life it can support, the precise orbit and distance from the sun and constructing an ozone layer to protect it all. From hearts that beat 60 times a minute to setting our clocks based on the position of the planets accurate to within 2/10,000ths of a second. We see God's work evidenced with mathematics throughout creation.

Did the J Source account of creation have God creating humanity before the animals?

This is the creation account that begins in Genesis 2:4b, and is quite different from the P source account of creation (Genesis 1:1-2:4a). In the J source account, God first created Adam, then the animals, and finally Eve. For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation

What you mean that God rested?

The idea that God rested on the seventh day after creating the world is a symbolic way to show completion and satisfaction in the act of creation. It is not meant to imply literal exhaustion or need for rest, but rather a moment of contemplation and reflection on the work that had been done.

Do pagans take the creation story literally?

If you're referring to the Creation story in the bible, then no. Because they don't believe in that version. Each pagan tradition has it's own creation myth.

Which term would best describe the belief in a life-force or spirit that imbues every aspect of creation?

Dear friend

Rather than "Term" may I sugest "Word" instead? A term can be long and drawn out where as a word can be just that and still answer your question. In this writers opinion the word would be "Faith". If you have the faith to believe that there is a life force that imbues every aspect of creation, then as far as you are concerned so it must be. Faith is the foundation of all our beliefs. If one does not have faith then the truth elludes us.

With respect

Who made people start to believe in evolution?

The original reason for people accepting that evolution had taken place was not the work of any single person. Rather, it was the growing fossil evidence showing that past life had been much different from modern forms. So by the time that Darwin started his work on evolution, it was already a well-accepted reality (in scientific circles at least) that some sort of evolution had taken place.

J.B. Lamarck as well as others proposed various hypotheses about the driving mechanisms of this observed change, but it was Darwin's work that is recognized today as being instrumental in bringing the theory of natural selection to light.

Today, people do not believe in the theory of evolution by natural selection as a result of the work of a single person either: they accept the theory based on the overwhelming evidence supporting it, evidence compiled by many famous or nameless scientists over the course of a century of research.

Who The pride of gods creation?

The single most precious one of all creation and of whom God is most proud of, is Jesus.

Is it true that they made an invisable man?

No this is not at all true, for no matter how far science has advanced they have failed to make a invisible man.

Does evolution stop once a species is a species?

Answer 1

The pace of evolution depends on how well adapted a species is to its environment and how stable the environment is. If a species is not well adapted to its environment then it will either evolve or go extinct. If the environment changes then the species living in it will have to adapt and evolve, or go extinct. If a species is well adapted to its environment and the environment is not changing then there will be no evolutionary pressure and no evolutionary process will occur. This kind of stability can be maintained for millions of years sometimes but ultimately every environment will change.

Answer 2

The above is not quite correct. Evolution, the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms, never stops. Variation by mutation, independent alignment of chromosomes, crossing over and random fertilization still goes on in species. The selection may be stabilizing if the environment is stable, but alleles change. Evolution and speciation are two things that flow seamlessly one into the other.

Answer 3

The question suggests that the asker is a bit confused about what constitutes a species. For all intents and purposes, we can replace the word 'species' with 'population'. Evolution concerns the changes in allele-frequencies in reproductively linked groups of organisms - populations. 'Species' is just a label that we attach to reproductively linked populations that share definitive features. Species do not become species: they already are, and always have been. Occasionally, we find reason to attach a new species-label to a particular population. Usually such reasons are found in increasing reproductive isolation and the divergence of phenotypes.

How has the Theory of Evolution affected people's views?

To elaborate, theories of evolution existed prior to Darwin - there was wide scientific acceptance of the principle that organisms evolved into new species. Prior to Darwin, the actual mechanism was uncertain. Darwin's breakthrough was natural selection, whereby organisms change by optimising to their environments. They do this either in response to change, or to exploit untapped environmental resources - think of the camel's adaptation to low rainfall/desert environments. Objectors to the theory of evolution claim that evolution is just a theory. They are correct. Objectors are wrong to suggest that, being a theory, evolution is not factual.

A theory is a statement of confidence, where a law (in science) is a numerically-provable fact, such as Newton's Law of Gravity. The absence of a mathematically-elegant formula (such as Newton's Law) does not reduce the validity and predictive usefulness of a theory.

Evolution is confidently demonstrated every day by the emergence of new antibiotic-resistant bacteria and by calici-virus-resistant rabbits. Challenging these organisms has killed off all but the few which are naturally resistant. Over time, the resistant strains become the main part of the population.

God the father is credited in a special way with the work of creation?

Yes, in Christian theology, God the Father is seen as the creator of the universe and all that is in it. This belief is based on the teaching that God spoke creation into existence in the book of Genesis in the Bible.

How did evil enter the world?

Genesis, in the Old Testament of the Bible, states that when God created man Gods only restriction was that man not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. This was mans free will. When Adam and Eve, Gods creation, ate of the forbidden tree their minds were opened to evil. Read Genesis 2 and 3 for the entire story.

Evolution of the bull?

This is not a question, it is merely a noun phrase with a question mark at the end. No one can reasonably understand what you mean. At any rate bulls are the males of various species of bovines. Species evolve, not sexes.

Did God create the world?

Yes! he did! Science/Creationists can prove that. It also is a possibility that God could have created the world through a "big bang." I question you, how could something create itself? Wouldnt it need a Creator? look at all the animals and all living things around you. Only God could have created anything so complex as your own body!
A Muslim's answer:

Obviously YES...

The question is: "If God created the world, then why most of the scientists don't say it?"

The modern science doesn't say directly that God created the world. So do they say the contrary? NO. They don't say anything about that. HOW? Very simple:

The scientific answer for how everything came into being is shortly as follows:

"The Laws of Nature made everything from dust clouds in the space."

You can find detailed information about this.. I am not going into the details.

As you see nothing is said on even God created everything or not. The answer will be obvious when we understand what are "The Laws of Nature" (LN).

When we study The Laws of Nature we conclude that:

1- The LN are laws and we know that if there is a law, then there is obviously a law-maker.

Explanatation: There are laws in countries. And these laws are put by someone (government in this case), they cannot exist by themselves and this is crystal clear. According to laws of a country, a person who, for example, robs a bank will be punished and imprisoned for, let's say, 10 years according TO THE LAWS OF THAT COUNTRY. Now we say that according to this and this laws of that country he was punished for 10 years. We don't say this and this laws put that person in the prison. Even if we say, we don't mean it in a direct way. He was put in the prison by the government according to some laws. Saying that he was sent to prison by this and this laws of that country doesn't mean that it was not done by the Government. Isn't it?

In the same way the LN exist, they are put in the Nature by someone and are controlled by the same Person who has put them. For example, one of the LN is that everything that has a non-zero mass attracts another thing that has a non-zero mass... This is a universal law and applies everywhere (This is also an evidence that there is only One Person who created and controls everything). So the dust particles in the space are attracted toward each other by this law... The collisions took place by the laws of momentum. Actually the mistake is in the interpretation. It should be said that "The Earth is held in an orbit according to the law of gravitational attraction, the attraction of the Sun." not "The Earth is held in an orbit by the law of gravitation." Still no problem, even if we say that we shouldn't understand the direct meaning. Otherwise, if we undestand the direct meaning in the example above and forget the government, we would be mistaken. Similarly, if we forget a Law-Maker, A Controller of those Laws, we would make greater mistake than that in the example.

2- What scientists say is not completely wrong. They are explaining something true, but interpreting it wrongly. Let me give an example to make this point clear.

We know that by the use of the modern technology we can control a huge machine by a computer. The computer is put somewhere away from the machine. Now a person is, for example, controls a car by computer sitting in a room. He drives the car and there is no one inside the car. A person unaware of modern technology tries to understand how that car is moving. He starts as follows:

1- The tires are rotating, that is why the car is moving.

2- The tires are rotated by the motor.

3- The motor is working by electricity.

4- The electricity is produced by a simple Natural Law - Motion of charged particles creates magnetic field and magnetic field changes the direction of moving charged particles. Moving charged particlesa creates electric current.

5- ...

...

Conclusion: There exist some laws and systems in that car and it is because of those laws and systems that the car moves. It is obvious that those systems and laws cannot exist there by themselves. There is obviously an engineer who has managed and put those systems and laws and it is him who is controlling it from outside of it... Driving a car from outside is something more complex and difficult and developed way of driving than driving it from inside it. Even if you don't see and you haven't seen the engineer of that car, you say that it is obviously made by someone. And even if you don't see the driver or any driver inside it, or near to it, still you say that it is being controlled by someone.

So all what we say - this is done by this, that is done because of this - are the explanations of the processes that are put in the universe by Someone All-Powerful and All-Wise. He has created everything and He is controlling everything. But it is not necessary for Him to be seen. I mean not being seen is never an evidence for non-existence of something, for example of the driver fo the car by computer.

Simply, everything MUST be created by someone and MUST be controlled by someone. And that person MUST be All-Powerful... etc. etc. Muslims call Him Allah meaning "The God, the One and only". Christians call him simply The God. The first step is that He exists and everything is created by Him.
