Creation vs. Evolution

OnyxCougar · 12-11-2003, 07:15 PM

I suppose a good place to start is to define terms from the outset:
Evolution:

a process of continuous change from a lower, simpler, or worse to a higher, more complex, or better state
a theory that the various types of animals and plants have their origin in other preexisting types and that the distinguishable differences are due to modifications in successive generations

Creationism: The belief that the entire population of the earth, inclusive of man and animal/insect/bacteria, etc were created by a deity henceforth referenced as "God", and the act of this creation was documented in a book known as "the Bible" and that the literal reading of the bible is an accurate presentation of the events that transpired.

More to come.
