What are similarities between creation and intelligent design?
Intelligent design in just another name for Creation. Believers in creationism don't want to use the word creation because it reflects a religious bias. Natural selection can be thought of as a component of evolutionary theory. At this point, proponents of Intelligent Design have not presented a unified, well formulated mechanism or model; it is a concept and not yet a coherent scientific theory.

In what country did Islam begin?
For many Muslims the term "Islam" has two meanings: the Divine Religion of Submission to God's Will (often called Islam with a small "i") and the Institutionalized Belief as Found in Qur'an and Revealed by Mohammed's Prophecy (often called Islam with a capital "I"). The following answers should be understood in either of those meanings.
Answer 1
Muhammad was born in Mecca and he began to preach Islam in the cities of Mecca and Medina, which are in modern Saudi Arabia. Islam originated in the 7th century. It is the youngest of the world's major religions. Saudi Arabia has now become the most restrictive country in the world vis-à-vis other religions.
Answer 2
Islam is an Arabic word that means submission to Allah (God in English). In this sense, Islam started by God since God creation of the universe. All creations were and are created on full submission (Islam) to God. This explains also that Islam in its universal sense is the mission of all God prophets to humanity. All prophets were calling people to Islam (submission to God, the one and only one). However:
- Islam per the Torah God revelation to Moses (PBUH) is called Judaism,
- Islam per the Bible God revelation to Jesus (PBUH) is called Christianity, and
- Islam per the Qur'an revelation to Muhammad (PBUH) is called the very name Islam.
Islam per the Qur'an revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) started in the country that is currently called Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. See the Related Question below.
Regarding the opening statement and Answer 9: : The dual definitions of islam and Islam has no reference in any Islamic source. It is something baseless and introduced by some westerners.
Regarding Answer 1: Please reread this answer.
Answer 3
Prophet Mohammad(s.a.w) spread Islam in the whole world from Mecca and Medina (generally). So you can say it was founded in Saudi Arabia but it is not the religion of Arabs. Islam is a Universal Religion and even though it started in Saudi Arabia, today many countries have Islam.
Answer 4
The last Prophet of Islam was born in Makka, Saudi Arabia. In a way, we can say that Islam began in Arabia. Although, according to the Muslims all the Prophets of Allah preached Islam.
Answer 5
Islam began in Saudi Arabia (Mecca and Medina cities) when the prophet Mohammad first received vision from Allah through the angel, Jibril (Gabriel).
Answer 6
Saudi Arabia. The first Muslims led by the prophet Muhammad lived in Mecca and then moved to the city of Medina (previously known as Yathrib later renamed to Medina). Both Mecca and Medina are in present day Saudi Arabia. Back then it wasn't called Saudi Arabia cause Saud is the name of the royal dynasty who rules the country now, just the Windsors rule Britain. It was just called Arabia back then.
Answer 7
Islam has existed since the first day Adam was created! It has not started in a country but it is the religion of the heavens! However; since this heavenly Islam was distorted, Muslims believe the prophet Muhammad came to restore the message - the revival originated in the city of Mecca, in the country today called The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Answer 8
Believers in the faith of the Prophet Mohamed, consider Mecca as the origin of the religion. This is where the Prophet lived and is beneath the mountain where Abraham went to sacrifice Isaac. It is also the city with the Mosque that encloses the "Kaabah" and the destination for pilgrimage. The country is then the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Mecca is next to the Red Sea, south of Jeddah.
Answer 9
islam with a small "i" (henceforth written as "islam") is a concept that comes out of Islam with a capital "I" (henceforth written as Islam") and projects the Established Religion of Islam back into the period before people would have identified as Muslim.
islam traces itself back to the universe's creation, making Islam the only proper human faith according to the Qur'an. Since it is considered part of universal creation, there is no country where islam begin, since islam existed before the world did.
Islam, as an Established Religion, was organized and directed by Mohammed, who, according to Islam, received revelations from God in Mecca, Saudi Arabia in the late 6th century. He was supported by several family members like his uncle Ali Ibn Talib and his first wife Khadija to pursue these prophecies. He converted other members to his nascent religion before being expelled from Mecca to Yethrib (now known as Medina) in 622 C.E. When Mohammed became the Chief Hakam or Judge/Administrator of Yethrib, he received many new revelations and began to ask members of his community to memorize these revelations (along with prior ones). These memorizers (in Arabic Hafeths) would eventually be responsible for the creation of one unified Qur'an. By Mohammed's death, he had conquered all of Arabia and converted most of Arabia to his new faith, establishing the grounds for an Islamic Caliphate, which succeeded him.
Answer 10
Islam is the only religion given to mankind by its Creator, Almighty God. It is not FOUNDED. It is as old as the first human being descended on the earth Hazrat Adam (AS) was the first Muslim and first Prophet of Almighty God. All the Prophets sent to earth by Almighty God for the guidance of humans preached One and the same religion-Islam. The last prophet of Islam Hazrat Muhammad (May peace be upon him) was born in Makka. He started preaching Islam in 610 AD, in Makka in Saudi Arabia. The fundamental belief being: ONENESS of Almighty God, having No Son, No Parents, No Off-spring, No Partner. The Sole Creator, Sustainer, Provider and Ruler of all the worlds.
In Arabia, now called Saudi Arabia. Specifically in the towns of al-Makkah and al-Yathrib, now called Medinah.
Islam was started in the Modern day Saudi Arabia. In the Hijaz Province, which would be considered as Mecca now.
At the time, the area was known as "Al-Jazeera Al-Arabiya" (Arabian Peninsula).
Islam originates from Saudi Arabia.
Islam started by and even before start of universe creation. However, Islam per Quran God revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) started by start of God revelation to the prophet in Makkah (or Mecca) in Saudi Arabia.
Longest period of time that has elapsed from an amendment was proposed until it became ratified?
202 years.........7 months............2 days
it was the 27th amendment
this is the oldest theory of how the state originated and was almost universally accepted in ancient and medieval times. it asserts that state is of divine origin for all political authority emanates from God. The ruler derives his power from god and god's agent on earth, he must be obeyed by the people in early modern times, this theory came to be known as the "divine right of kings."
What is the oldest known name for God?
The problem with the question is that the term "god" is a nebulous one. It can refer to anything with supernatural powers and therefore can range from local spirits that control a local river to omnipotent and omniscient universe creators. Whether or not any of these supernatural deities exist is purely a question of belief, so the question of whether a particular god referenced is a "true god/God" is debatable.
Local Spirits
Contrary to the assertions of the monotheistic faiths, there is absolutely no reason to believe that mankind was monotheistic in its earliest incarnations, later became polytheistic, and then "rediscovered" monotheism. Mankind has worshipped various deities since we first looked up at the night sky and pondered the question of our existence which in a logical reference for thousands of years. The concept of religious worship tracks to the birth of Behavioral Modernity, circa 50,000 B.C.E. Idols exist from this time, but as there is no writing nor surviving culture from that time, they could just be statues of people and rulers that people followed. We have these idols (from Africa predominantly), but we cannot state what the original beliefs of those people were as they do no track to any modern extant faiths.
The oldest representation of the "earth mother" is most likely Venus of Willendorf. A statue of which was discovered in 1908 and made between 22,000 and 21,000 B.C.E ( Before the christian era).
Polytheistic Divinities
It is unclear when exactly the concept of gods became more powerful, such that a god would be responsible for an element or a concept rather than a local physical entity. These gods could control all of the water or protect every home, etc. However, almost all major ancient civilizations, such as the Sumerians (the oldest currently known civilization) and the Egyptians had these types of gods. (It is unclear if China moved from local spirits to polytheistic divinities in the earlier periods.) Since the concept of polytheistic gods tracks to before civilization (otherwise how would it have proliferated in societies without sufficient contact with one another), we cannot say what the oldest polytheistic divinity is.
Sumeria was one of the oldest known civilizations on earth, Enki was the patron god of what is accepted as the oldest city on Earth, and the Monotheistic God is based on Sumerian myth of Enki or Marduk. There is also the god Anu, who was another of the oldest gods in the Sumerian pantheon and part of a triad including Enlil (god of the air) and Enki (god of water). Sumerian myth also has a creation myth that reads almost exactly like the Biblical creation myth, and also has a flood myth that is almost identical. Otherwise, the Egyptian sun god Amun Ra would be a close runner up.
Hades is also believed to be the oldest Greek god, but since Aegean civilization is much younger than Ancient Sumer or Ancient Egypt, it is certainly not the oldest god.
Monotheism
The earliest clear articulation of monotheism was the religion of Pharaoh Akhenaton called Atenism which existed in the 14th century B.C.E. However, this religion died with the Pharaoh twenty years later. Depending on whether Zoroastrianism is considered to be monotheistic, which is dubious given the amount of power Angra Mainyu weilds against Ahura Mazda, the clearest archaelogical articulations of "modern" monotheism track to the 5th century B.C.E. in Babylon (the Jews) or the 6th century B.C.E. in Persia (the Zoroastrians). Archaeology does not support the Biblical claim that Abraham and Moses lived nor that the Ancient Israelites were purely monotheistic. On the contrary, archaeology holds that there were several important Canaanite gods in the Israelite pantheon and monolatry (i.e. the acceptance of many gods, but the worship of only one) began in the reign of King Josiah. The rejection of the other gods, which was necessary for monotheism, was what occurred in Babylon.
Among Monotheist Believers
The oldest known God would be found in the mythos of the middle east.
Thus oldest known God is 'Elohim', the God of the Old Testament. He was first known at Creation, and you can't get much earlier than that! By definition, it is immaterial how long ago that was. By the way, it is incorrect to call 'Elohim' the Jewish God at Creation [dated at 4004BC Ussher] because Judah was not born until much later in 1755BC [Ussher].
The Middle East was the home of The God of Abraham, the God of Ur, and the various ideas of God in pre-Egypt and Pre-Hindu God-ideas of their respective regions. Both Egypt and India were at a time monotheistic in theory. But when each corresponding nation was established, their governments accepted all the ideas of God as individual gods, because it served to keep their nations together. Considering most religions can find their origins in India, we could state the oldest potential God is found there.

What was the first animal on earth?
It was a microscopic being, the name is not known.
Tribolites, that came into existence approximately 450 million years ago at the beginning of the Paleozoic Era in the Cambrian Period, are among the first animal-like creatures on earth.
amoeba
Earth's first animal was the ocean-drifting comb jelly. I know it is hard to belive but the scientists just discovered it on April 2008.

How were mankind and the universe created?
If you looking for scientific answer, then no one can answer this question.
scientifically the birth of the first man is impossible. so there must be someone with great powers. He or She would have created us
no one,you must belve he's fake!
Answer:
The invention of gods and supernatural forces to explain the workings of the world was one of mankind's earliest inventions. There is no record of when these beliefs came into being but evidence suggests that early man used magic in an attempt to control hunting and other attributes of his life.
What did aryan bring to India?
The aryans broght a completely new language and belief system to India.We see a dramatic discontinuity between the Indus valley civilization(4000BC-2000BC) which buried its dead and had a script which is still not deciphered and the vedic period which spoke sanskrit(the world's oldest indo European language) and cremated their dead.
They also brought in the caste system (though this is political dynamite in India so you are advised to avoid this topic ) as well as vedic gods and practices and concepts such as transmigration of the soul,reincarnation etc which are still the pillars on which all dharmic faiths of India are built on and then later spread to the rest of Asia via Buddhism.
Woodrow Wilson went to the table of the Treaty of Versailles with an agenda of creating the League of Nations. The nations of the world wanted to talk about their agendas not his 14 points. They were after revenge, retribution and admission of guilt when his agenda was peace and democratic ruling nations and alliances for his agendas. They basically had to promise him he would get his league if he got the Germans to sign the their Treaty and agreed to sign it too. He went back home and things changed while he was gone. He had to compromise. The US did not become part of the League because the US Congress did not go along with it. see related links below.
God's creation of day and night?
Day by day, God created the universe and its contents (Genesis ch.1).God created the universe out of nothing (Exodus 20:11, Isaiah 40:28; Rashi commentary to Genesis 1:14; Maimonides' "Guide," 2:30).Note that the Torah, in describing the Creation, deliberately employs brevity and ellipsis, just as it does in many other topics. See the Talmud, Hagigah 11b.
- On day 1: God created the universe in general, light, and this Earth, and set day and night into motion. The light was not the same as that of the sun. Rather, it was light that God created before the sun, and which emanated from a point in space without any physical source; like what we might term a "white hole."
- On day 2: God created the separation between the Earth and the upper atmosphere.
- On day 3: God separated the continents from the oceans, and created plants.
- On day 4: God created the sun, moon, and stars.
- On day 5: God created birds and fish.
- On day 6: God created animals and people.
- On day 7: God ceased creating, thereby creating the concept of rest.

Where did the females come from if Adam and Eve had only three sons?
The Bible dose not always show the names of daughters. However, what the Bible does tell us is that he had at least two daughters, although he may well have had more: 4And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:
What do Christians believe about the origins of the universe?
- All Christians believe in Jesus Christ, as their saviour. Having said that, they come in more varieties than you can shake a stick at.
- Some groups believe in the literal truth of everything in the Bible, including in Genesis.
- Some believe the Bible is a mixture of history, allegory and parables and scientists are probably right.
- Many groups are somewhere between the above two.
It should be noted that Christ did not say how the universe was created or teach that this mattered as part of what it meant to follow him. He simply taught us how to love God and each other.
However, the Christian Church did make pronouncements on this and it is these that have lead to the problems in Christianity as the enlightenment, and the scientific method applied to evolution and cosmology have proved that the Church's teachings were incorrect.
Is evolution or creation true?
- It is easy to find evidence that evolution is accurate. Not so much creationism. Its a theory...but it makes a lot of sense. Many Christians accept evolution and natural selection as fact.
- I believe in Creationism, but that doesn't mean creation hasn't evolved , adapted for weather or changes in food supply etc. These beliefs aren't necessarily mutually exclusive. In fact, many of those who believe in Noah's ark accept that evolution subsequent to "the global flood" occurred at a pace substantially faster than most biologists are willing to concede possible.
What light did God create in the beginning?
He created the world, not light. Answer The light in Genesis 1:3 was not the light from the sun, but light emanating from the very throne of God as God's light from his glory shone on the darkness of the world, as he initiated the events that followed (the creation or remaking of the earth). Light always was, as God always was. All matter interestingly is condensed light energy! In 1 John 1:5 we read that, "..God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all". What all that means, Ive no idea, but light is eternal, as God is. Apparently the Light from the glory of God is so powerful that were he to personally appear uncloaked in all his glory upon the earth, the earth and everything in it would be annihilated. Something about sin, introduced darkness both to the Universe, to the world, to our hearts, and to our souls, so much so that we literally cannot stand directly in His presence in our condition, lest we become consumed as by a ball of fire. This is part of the reason for his mainly indirect communication to man through prophets etc, inspired by the Holy Spirit of God, which cannot be seen. Its also why when He appeared to Israel during the Exodus of Moses day, that he appeared clothed by a cloud, to shield the people from His consuming light. So He never created light, it is part of Gods very nature and inseparable from God.
Did the universe create God or did God create the universe?
There can be arguements if God created the Universe to create different "worlds without number" or if the Universe was already created and he just created the worlds with the space there. Personally,either way, I wouldn't sweat over it. I don't think we need to know this in order to get to heaven.
From my understanding i think the angel Gabriel was a messenger...........
What theory do most atheists believe about the creation of the earth?
Answer:
Cosmologists and astrophysicists (people who study such matters) explain the creation of the Earth (the ball of solids, liquids and gases we live on) as the result of the mutual attraction and accumulation of matter created (either after the "Big Bang" or in process of continual conversion of matter into energy) through gravitational attraction and the pressure of light. The view is not the view of atheism but of science. As atheists have no supernatural belief to explain the existence of the Universe, the opinions and findings of science must, by default, be theirs.
What is the history of the church nurse in black churches?
Black churches have church nurses to tend to the congregation that may fall out during the worship service. As the service builds, members may become enthusiastic and fall. The nurse also tends to the sick during service and provides the pastor with water, juice, or towels before, during, and after the worship service.
