Evidence for creation
Simply put the creation story can be seen to be true through basic scientific principles but mainly it is STILL observable today..i.e plants produce after there own kind..so do animals..this is SEEN in in common day life dogs gives birth to dogs and human to humans a chimp to a chimp. So from a purely evidence-based observation the biblical account is true until proven otherwise. I would like to see any scientist disprove this...Evolution though interesting does not have the same observability and is based more on theory than fact..i.e macro evolution has not been proven to my knowledge to the same extent i.e from simple cell to oceanic life to amphibians to land animals to humans (loosely put). Though micro evolution can be seen, i.e natural selection, it is not conclusive as what is observed today and does not prove evolution as the basis of life. Natural selection is more the extension of prey and predation not a mechanism to how life formed.
However when you apply the same cynical, skeptical scientific approach (which is good) to the creation story there is a abundance of correlation and scientific "fact" to back that account up..
Ecclesiastes 3 vs 10-14
10 I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet
a no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. 13 That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. 14 I
know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him
"He has also set eternity in the human heart" (v. 11, above).
I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it
These two verses proven by the law of conservation of energy and matter..
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
Here we have the big bang and the creation of light (energy) and Time "there was evening and there was morning" however note there was no sun or moon or stars..also note "Olber's Paradox" in the beginning and today there is the "isthere" Proven fact!! a curtain of light no longer observable but still present and would have been observable in the past..i.e a light sky not a dark sky!! Moses would not have known it!!
Also the stellar evolution occurs in the same order as proposed by chemical models i.e hydrogen to the heavier elements (as seen in stars today-Fact!!) being produced i.e H20 to water to silicates, carbonates, etc., i.e Land
The chronological events as seen in the fossil record occurs i.e plants to animals to man..note the Cambrian event
So why has evolution taken precedence over the creation story of the bible when I would say there is more scientific factual evidence to support the biblical account..Than the theory of Evolution (Macro Evolution)
