Similarities Between Evolutionism And Creationism

Have you ever wondered how the universe was created or how we all came to be? The two most known movements that claim to know how everything was created are Evolutionism and Creationism. Evolutionists believe in the Big Bang Theory and that species evolve over time in a process called natural selection where those who have become better adapted, tend to survive and produce more offspring. Creationists believe that the universe and all living organisms originate from specific acts of a divine creator known as God. Both sides have become very popular our time and go head and head in debates whenever a chance comes up. Each has their own evidence to say that they are correct but, neither side has been able to disprove the other side completely.

Evolutionists believe that man originated from apes which pertains to the natural selection while creationists believe that man was created in God’s image by God. Evolutionists say that scientific evidence shows that the physical and behavioral traits of humans originated from apelike ancestors and evolved over a period of around 6 million years. The ability to walk on two legs evolved over 4 million years ago. Other human characteristics like a large and complex brain, the ability to make tools, and the capacity for language developed recently. Physical and genetic similarities show that the human species, homo sapiens, has a very close relationship to another group of primate species, apes. Creationists believe in something totally different from that of evolutionists. They believe that we were all were created by God, in his image, on the sixth day of creation during the six days of creation in Genesis. Genesis 1:27 says, “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” After this, God tells them to be fruitful and multiply which pertains to us as their descendants. Clearly, this shows a huge difference between where both sides believe we came
