Do you believe in Creationism or Evolution?

I believe that God created evolution.  Therefore, I believe in creationism.  Things evolve, but as far as man coming from beast, no way!

I believe in God and I believe that He created everything in 6 literal 24 hour days.. \n\nI believe in evolution in the sense that I know things change within a species.  Very small changes over time.  Changes from one species to another are degenerative, so I don't believe in macro evolution.\n\nI've not read the Da Vinci code, but if it differs from the Bible (and from what I've heard it differs greatly), I don't believe in it.\n\nI've studied evolution.  I've doubted my Christian upbringing in the past. I've had life experiences that almost cost me my faith.  My faith in God is not born of convenience or lack of will, but it's also too hard to answer in this little box in any kind of way that would likely make sense to you.\n\nThe simplest reason I have for believing in God, is that if He does not exist, where does love come from?  I don't mean attraction, but sacrificial love.  The love a parent feels for a child.  Beyond instinct.  Where does love come from?

Evolution is fact.  Think about it.

I have responded to the 'creationist' argument on a number of occasions.\n\nBasically people like to argue based on a premise that cannot be argued (i.e. prove God doesn't exist and wasn't responsible ... obviously impossible to prove).\n\nIn terms of the whole creationist argument I agree that evolution is flawed (remember though the Bible is CLEARLY flawed as it is contradictory and suggests behaviour that would get you arrested today) but it makes much more sense to an independent person (if there is such a thing) than the whole 'man in the sky got bored one day and knocked up a planet'.\n\nWhile arguing the whole fossils give incomplete record thing they never seem to explain the existence of dinosaurs which, for some reason, seem to get very low coverage in the Bible.\n\nOverall I am happy to respect other peoples rights to their beliefs but not necessarily their beliefs ... I would hope they would do me the courtesy of the same.  The problem with most creationists is that they infer stupidity on the part of non believers.\n\nPeace out

If you believe in evolution, then by your question, it sounds like you need Darwin either way.

No, almost by definition, a creationist believes what they do based on faith, even in the presence of overwhelming information disputing creationism.  If a delusional person believes they are Ceasar, for example, you cannot "prove" to them that they are not, no matter what evidence you give.  I don't mean to say creationists are delusional, just that a belief based upon faith is one that, by definition, neither needs any evidence nor is swayed by evidence.  In addition, evolution isn't "proven" it's just an extremely powerful theory that has a great deal of evidence supporting it, no real evidence disputing it, and seems to describe the real world as we know it very accurately.

There is physical evidence supporting evolution.  There is no physical evidence supporting creationism.

The fact that evolution is a theory that makes sense and that has evidence that supports it.\n\nCreationism is an irrational belief of those who are afraid of science and do not wish to get in their any more information than  "god created and controls everything, that is all i need to know", personally i think shows weakness of mind.  Creationist thinking has no way to even theorize how "god", "heaven", "hell", etc. might exist, while evolution has facts that supports it.

No, creationism is real but it was the Flying Spaghetti Monster who created the world look i have proof:\n\nhttp://www.venganza.org/

Yup, I believe in God and The Bible, His letter to mankind.  And no, I do not believe in the Theory of Evolution.\n\nIf one believes the Bible is God's Word, then one can't believe in evolution.  Since the Bible IS the Word of God, then the entire book has to be perfect -- totally inerrant.  This means that if one believes anything in the Bible, one must believe every single word.  It's all or nothing; God either said it or He didn't say it.  He is either lying or He is telling the truth.  He is incapable of lying or of being inaccurate in anything He says so every bit of it has to be true.\n\nEven though there are things we may not understand, we believe them anyway, because God is totally trustworthy.  There are many things few of us understand, but we believe in them anyway, such as the deeper things of science and mathematics.  I don't understand much about how a computer works and the many advancements in information technology, but I sure believe in them.\n\nIf there's anyone we can rely on it is God.  He doesn't make mistakes.  He is perfect.

Neither creationism nor evolution can be proved 100% correct, but one proof of creationism is that the fossil record shows the sudden appearance of fossils (like an explosion of organisms- as explained in Genesis 1 with the six days of creation) instead of many "transitional forms" over millions and millions of years as evolution predicts. I don't know of any websites, but a book called "The Genesis Flood" was very helpful and also one called "Evolution: The Fossils Still Say No!" I happen to know this because I just had to do a paper on this very subject. Good luck!

Well, I think so.  I'm a biologist who accepts the fact that evolution occurred, but I don't use that to try to prove that God doesn't exist.  I'm also a born-again Christian who doesn't doubt a single word in the Bible.  Evolution is nothing.  I frankly don't see what the big deal about it is.  The real enemy is Materialism- those pseudoscientists who think the physical universe is all that exists.  That's not the same thing as evolultion.  One can still believe in God and simply think evolution was a tool He used at times.  But you can't be a Materialist and still believe in God at all.  People should understand that they're disputing about a worldview, not about facts.

God does...I believe in the creation of all, but that doesn't mean that some species haven't evolved...There is probably room for both God and science, in the whole scenario..but not knowing enough about evolution, I couldn't say what part it has in the scheme of things..\nAltho God is my primary focus, I try to keep an open mind and learn things...

I wonder the same thing. But I believe God created the world. I don't believe in evolution. It just doesn't make sense!

evolution is just mans way of trying to understand how life got here and is how it is. Its a theory and not a proven fact. People just refuse to believe a higher power created them.\nI believe in breeding and that's it. God created basic life on the planet and then through breeding of those animals we got several different species in one classification of such.

You have an oxymoron here. If you believe in evolution then nothing was created. If you believe in creation, then nothing evolved.\n    Monkeys evolved just like all other living things here on earth.If you believe that God created monkeys, but wonder why, ask about bed-bugs, the aids virus, mosquitoes, why created envy, greed, lust.  Whoever created the good, also created the bad.

Well, I believe in the theory of evolution, not exactly Darwin's original model, since that's pretty old and has been revised (DNA, genetics, fossils, etc).\n\nAs to why some folks choose not to believe, there are several reasons I can think of :\n\n1) The idea that man evolved from a non-human creature is near unthinkable. Many people find it ludicrous that we are closely related to some big hairy beast that sits and scratches its butt at the zoo.\n\n2) We like to be in the "center", and evolution tells us that we aren't 'special', whereas religion makes humans THE important species. Kinda like why people didn't believe Galileo at first.\n\n3) Religion. If you grow up learning one thing, it's pretty hard to convince yourself otherwise.\n\n4) If evolution is indeed true, then the BIble can't be taken literally. Adam and Eve is one of the most significant stories in the Bible (as well as the Quran), if that's just a parable, what else is?\n\nProbably some other reasons as well, I can't think of any more right now. Good luck on your research, btw :)
