Creation vs Evolution

A 2013 Pew Research Center survey found that roughly a quarter of adults (24%) say that "a supreme being guided the evolution of living things for the purpose of creating humans and other life in the form it exists today". The survey also showed that 36% of white evangelical Protestants say humans have evolved over time, while 60% say humans have existed in their present form since the beginning of time.

Some Christian thinkers, like Charles Kingsley and Frederick Temple, began to reconcile evolution with their faith in the 19th century, suggesting that evolution could be a mechanism used by God.

In his encyclical "Humani Generis," Pope Pius XII stated that Catholic teachings on creation could coexist with evolutionary theory, provided that the human soul is a direct creation of God. Pope John Paul II further clarified the Church's view, stating that evolution is "more than a hypothesis" and that the Church recognizes the scientific validity of evolution.

Many Catholics, and other Christians, embrace the concept of theistic evolution, which suggests that God used the process of evolution to create life, rather than a literal, six-day creation.

But what does the Bible say?

Two Sabbaths: Part 1

Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: but the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. Exodus 20:8-11

Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. Genesis 2:1-3

Flat earth or globe? What does the Bible say?

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trusts, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called. 1 Timothy 6:20

Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Colossians 2:8

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of the world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? ...For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. 1 Corinthians 1:20; 3:19

...yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; ...Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Romans 3:4; 1:25
