Biblical Creationism be presented parallel with evolution as a valid explanation of the origin of the universe? The secular system is accepting evolution as fact, when evolution is really a worldview in which one sees the facts. The argument can then be made that if one must exert faith to believe evolution, then Biblical Creationism should not be disqualified as an equal explanation. National evangelist and former atheist Kirk Cameron (2004) writes, “Evolution is a religion that is believed…

neanderthal, and homo sapien contain the same basic structure with variations in the cranium, maxilla, and mandible. John Scopes, a Tennessee substitute teacher, was placed on trial in 1925 for violating the Butler Act. He taught that theory of evolution, that man is descended from the primate family. This was illegal in Tennessee because the Butler Act state anything that denied the story of Creationism forbidden to be taught in public schools. Scopes was later found guilty and fined $100. The…

origins of life because both Biblical Creation and evolution takes faith, and even a logical thinker can be convinced that Biblical Creation is a worthy explanation. Society should realize that Evolution, not just Biblical Creation, takes faith. Opponents to Biblical Creation believe it is not a valid argument because they consider the Bible as religious dogma that is the result of ‘faith’, not scientific fact. However, many ignore that evolution is not fact either, but a lens in which…

In all the years that have past there is only ever been a few theories of evolution; evolution is how different organisms have developed or diversified from earlier ancestors in the history of the earth and is also known as the diversity of life. Evolution usually occurs very slowly, over long, extensive amounts of time. The idea of evolution can go as far back as the middle ages, because Aristotle explained all natural things are flawed and can be fixed in a natural way such as changing forms,…

creationism and evolution, as it showed the debate between two very strongly opposed parties: the faithful fundamentalists and the newly created group known as evolutionists. While this court case was really only intended to determine whether John Thomas Scopes had broken the law or not, it turned out to be something so much more than that. Darwinism is a theory of biological evolution in attempt to explain the history and diversity of life here on Earth. This theory of evolution by natural…

thought in the 1926 Scopes “Monkey Trial”, with the defendant John Thomas Scopes against the state of Tennessee. Evolution and religion were put to the ultimate test during this trial as the court was subject to realizing potential errors in the Holy Bible. In contemporary times, creationism and evolution have been combined to form a hybrid theory of life: intelligent design. Creationism, evolution,…

Passage 1: “Our genetic makeup has been adapting in response to where we live and what the weather’s like. The food we eat has evolved to cope with the organisms that eat it, and we’ve evolved to cope with that. We’ve looked at the way we’ve evolved to resist or manage the threat posed by specific infectious diseases…

Charles Darwin was a renowned English naturalist and geologist that has since been described as one of the most prominent figures in both scientific and human history. He was best known for his compelling theories and contribution to evolution and is now considered the founder of Biological/Physical anthropology. Darwin was born on February 12, 1809, in Shrewsbury, England. He was born into wealth and power as he was part of a long line of scientists and doctors, which included his father,…

story "The Time Machine" the Time Traveler theorizes about how the human race evolved into the Eloi and the Morlocks; many of these theories reflect ideas from Darwin's work. The theories the Time Traveler composes directly tie in with ideas of evolution, Natural Selection and environmental changes. First the Time traveler think that the Eloi are the only descendants of the human race; this is before he discovered the Morlocks. He believes that scientific progress continued to make life…
