Evolution vs. Creationism: An Argumentative Paper Explosion; nothing transforms into something and the world as we know it is formed. Or there is one true God who formed this world by supernatural means and created man from dust. Both seem rather far-fetched for the definitive answer to the pre-eminent question of the age: why are we here and where do we come from. Evolution is assumed to be true because it appears to be proven by natural scientific organic processes, and Christianity is assumed to be false because it is based on a book that a bunch of random people wrote 5,000 years ago. All this would be postulated if this document were written by the people in general, but this is not the case. In this article, evolutionism, also called Darwinism, and creationism will be compared and contrasted and will ultimately provide substantial insight into why creationism is the only conceivable answer. Contrary to what many believe, Darwin was not, in fact, the creator of evolution. The idea that animals could produce a species change dates back to pre-Socratic Greek times, around the 16th century. Darwin simply took the combined ideas of philosophers, such as Anaximander and Empedocles, added into his supposed observable proof, and wrote a Yanes 2 composition of predetermined ideas and extractions from other short texts already written on evolution. But what is evolution? Evolution is the change in the inherited characteristics of biological populations over successive generations (NA), but is it a belief, dependent and relied upon by and through faith, or is it a science; a proven fact, cold and hard, observable and repeatable? Many, if not all, evolutionists would say it is the latter, ... middle of paper ... Swiss cheese theory of evolution. Evolution and creationism: two conflicting beliefs that are constantly searching for a superior solution. hand. With similarities and comparisons that Christianity does not deny, but that evolution soon repudiates. Where are you located? In a belief that has many loose strings, like a puppet that has too many strings, you try to apply it, but the strings become tangled and unusable? Or in a belief that has undeniable evidence and proof, a belief that has a promise of eternal life as opposed to a dark nothingness? A decision must be made. Whether through further evidence external to this document, or simply through your daily life, you need to know where your beliefs lie. Just know that if what Christians say is true and the evidence is overlooked and criticized, you will face something much, much worse than being chastised by those around you..
