The View of Creationists

The View of Creationists

In all the western culture(s), the term "creationism," or "creation,"

is automatically associated with Christianity and the Bible. In

particular it is associated with the book of Genesis, the beginning

book of the Bible, which recounts the story of creation. However this

generalization ignores those of other faiths who believe just as

firmly in creation as opposed to evolution from their respective

points of view

The believe that God created the universe during 6 consecutive 24 hour

days less than 10,000 years ago, precisely as a one of the literal

interpretations of the Biblical book of Genesis would indicate. All of

the various species of plants and animals that currently exist (and

that once existed) on earth are descendants of the original life forms

that God created during the single week of creation.

It is also believed that the Flood of Noah was responsible for the

vast majority of the geologic strata we see today.

They also believe that Science is science. Lab work is lab work and

fieldwork is fieldwork. Science, in its purest form, deals with what

can be tested and worked with. It does not matter, when adding

materials to a Petri dish, when excavating fossils, when operating the

spacecraft, whether the person or people involved are atheistic,

deistic, agnostic, New Age, or however else they might consider

themselves. The technical aspects are not part of the belief systems

of the men and women involved, they believe that man is inaccurate and

can come up with theories which can be convincing.

Their major evidence is from the Bible (the book of Genesis). The

scientific view is totally not acceptable because they believe that

nothing can originate spontaneously.”Everthing which has a beginning

has a course”

SCIENTISTS

Many scientists believe that the first cells arose spontaneously about

3.5 billion years ago. Conditions in the atmosphere were different

then, the atmosphere contained hydrogen, methane, ammonia and water.

Just right fro the formation of the chemicals we find in living

organisms.
