Bible Question:
What are the three main "views" on how things began? What is "evolution?" and how does it differ from "creation?" Can you be a Christian and "Believe in Evolution?" Why or why not? |
Bible Answer: Hi Connie, I am not sure of three views, I'm only aware of creationism and evolutionism. could the third be the big bang theory? which is the beginning of the evolution theory, and I believe, originally proposed by Darwin after being stranded on the Galapagos islands after a shipwreck. Evolution is what is primarily taught in public schools and believe that life formed itself out of matter, then "learned" how to have offspring by itself, then evolved to higher life forms, such as from fish climbing onto dry land and growing lungs and legs. those that believe in the creation theory believe that a higher life form was already in existance and as is told in the beginning, God created heaven and earth My thoughts are, the theory that you subscribe to will affect every decision you will ever make in your life. How do you feel about this? Bless You, tim |
