Scientific Method.
For centuries, people based their beliefs on their interpretations of what they saw going on in the world around them without testing their ideas. People would read the bible for answers to all there questions. The Greek and Christianity believed that the earth was located at the center of the universe and that other planets revolved around it. Aristotle theory was that heavy object reached the land faster than a lighter object. His theory was believed by people for 1500 years. Years later they conducted an experiment and found out that there observations were not true. The questioning of everything and how things worked was later solved by the Scientific Revolution.
Evolution vs. Creation.
Evolution and creation are two topics about how life was actually created. For several years people have argued about this. Darwin's Theory of Evolution is he's basically saying that we came from one organism & grew by multiplying or breeding. But on the other hand Creation is a religious belief. People believe that theres this so called ''GOD'' that started this world and created it in just seven days. This has been a huge question for all of us and mystery.
Charles Darwin believed that all life originated from common ancestors, which were slowly making changes over time. Darwin believed in natural selection, meaning that he believed that random mutations occur in an organism, and the mutations that are beneficial to the organism are preserved and passed on to the next generation. Over time, the organisms with the inferior traits would die out because they would be unable to survive.
Creationism is a religious belief that everything on the earth was made by God. Creationism rejected Darwin's Theory of Evolution. Many people believe that the Earth and all the creatures in it were created by GOD. Most religions have creation stories as part of there beliefs, some people refer to themselves as Creationists they're mainly Fundamental Protestant Christians. These Creationist believe the version of Creation found in the Bible in the book of Genesis. So in other words God created the Universe, including the Earth and all the creatures in it in just seven days. Most creationists believe this means seven twenty-four hour days. Other Christians and Jews believe the seven days symbolize periods that lasted much longer.
I personally think that the theory of Evolution is the correct one. Reason why is because it has more prove to back it all up. This hole GOD theory is just non-sense and ignorance. i grew up around it all. But, i do believe we evolved from a small organism and threw out the years we evolved and kept evolving into different stuff and humans that we are today.
