I understand evolution well, and even have my own modified predictions and theories on it, (thats why i love science). I see it as the only real legitimate standpoint on how life on this planet is the way it is. I am always baffled how such oposing ideas such as creationism even have a leg to stand on.
I would love to hear the arguments all condensed here so i can see what you have to say, and have the oppertunity to respond. ![]() p.s. you evolutionists by all means join in :P |

To which "opposing ideas of Creationism" do you refer?

Literal scripture belief on such things as the creation story, all things that are mutually exclusive with scientific propositions, i just want to see some of the justifications people have for believing them.
Never mind really, i felt this was going to flop and not get answered lol ..shame |

It is never particularly smart or scientific to take an absolute position on anything scientific.

Young Earth creation or Old Earth creation? Many Christians believe in creation that allows for an old earth. It is not a central doctrine like salvation by grace through faith in Christ. Humility is importance in discussing these things I am learning.

Yeah, but you had to go back and edit your statement.

I suppose creationism gives people an exaggerated feeling of self importance when they say God created them, instead of saying that they are one of the many products of the evolution process.

Creationism stands because it serves its purpose...
Scientists use their mind so much they seem to forget to learn about the mind itself... Creationism isn't just simply an idea about how the world was created. It *is*, literally speaking, but with the religions that get attached to it it becomes a religious dogma more than a scientific theory. Therefore creationism doesn't stand on just scientific fact and experiments it also stands on "belief" and "gut feelings". Silly? Of course. But you have to remember that the creation of the universe and life as we know it isn't something that can be tested because it is not recurring. So, in a way, creationism stands on one more leg than evolution... Evolutionists love to point the finger at the creationists and laugh saying, "You have absolutely no reason to believe in that!" but fail to realize that they don't have any reason to believe in evolution either... Evolution and/or creationism can only be proven or disproven over vaste amounts of time and even by the time evolution is finally capable of being proven it's highly unlikely anyone will be one step closer to knowing if creationism is valid. So, please, evolutionists stop trying to convince everyone that the evolution THEORY is not a theory... People choose creationism over evolution because it fits *their* facts better. People pick and choose their own axioms every day and that's where these debates come in to play.
