Evolution vs. Creationism
Did we evolve? Were we created? The answer to both questions may be yes. The arguments against both ideas are not worth debate. Neither disproves or negates the other. The Lord created us and that cannot be disputed. The theory of evolution seems to make a lot of sense. The Lord never said we weren't made in that way. The only thing to remember is that evolution is just a theory at this point whereas the Lord has made it clear to us that He is the creator. The Lord said we came from the dust, from clay. Perhaps this is a reference to the minute organisms He spawned us from. In that case, He made the minute organisms and the circumstances in which they would grow. Still, He is the creator. The seven days refered to as the time it took to create the earth is debatable in interpretation. However, the point of the story of creation isn't how long it took for Him to create us. Time is irrelevant since the Lord is infinite. How He created us and how long it took should be on the back burner as questions we would like to understand in an effort to further prove His glory. The main point to remember is that He made us in whatever miraculous way He chose. Being that He works in ways we can't always understand, one cannot rule out evolution altogether.
