Viewing Simple Reminders…
By: C. Dakota
Creation or Evolution? A question posed by many and only leads to ones personal beliefs. While evolution was posed as a theory and is accepted by faith, it has never been proven or supported by facts hence the missing link or should I say links. Creation on the other hand is not viewed as a theory but tied to religion and is accepted on faith based on the bible.
Look around, what do you see? Many of us will see a thousand different things if we look hard enough. Take a walk outside and list all the different things you encounter. Now ponder the things we don’t see, such as bacteria, germs, viruses, proteins, atoms, and molecules. What about a strand of DNA? There are thousand upon thousands of things that make up our world and universe. How can every thing we see and know of today have come from a big rock? What was the first organism? How many mutations had to occur for the world to be what it is today?
Acceptance that there is a higher power (God) controlling the universe is the difference between those who believe in creation and those who believe in evolution. Another difference is how the two sides perceive life. While evolutionists walk around wondering how to link everything together, the creationist is enjoying the beauty of the world in which we live.
As one who believes in creation and the Creator, I see reminders of his marvelous work all day, every day. For example:
· The sun rises and sets and races to rise again the next day
· A rainbow in the sky, a sign of one of God’s promises
· Yard work, yes, yard work. If Adam and Eve had not sinned in the garden, we would not have to work pulling weeds
· The wind, we can not see it but we know it is there
· The clouds and rain
I can go on and on with reminders. The world we live in is self-sustaining; it has every thing we need to survive here and more. What are the odds of this happening by evolution?
Try this. Take ten quarters and stack them in your hand. Now, throw them into the air and see if they land in a stack in the same order as you had them in your hand. You say it is impossible. Actually it is not but your odds are next to nothing. The same is true with evolution. At least with the quarters all ten were in your hand to begin with, where as in evolution there was nothing really when it began. If you don’t believe that I can do the quarter trick why would you believe that everything evolved for a single organism that was on a rock millions or billions of years ago.
I choose to walk around viewing simple reminders rather than asking how it happened.
