10 Questions to Ask About Evolution, Part 1
By Allen Stout
How did the universe, the heavens and the earth, come into existence? How did life begin? Does your life have a purpose? Can science answer these questions? What does the Bible say?
ontroversies have raged for years over science, evolution and the Bible. Evolutionists successfully appealed to the U.S. court system to expel the biblical creation and intelligent design narratives from being taught in science classes as an alternative to the theory of evolution.
Creationists then made a nationwide drive to allow time for teaching biblical creation as an explanation for the origin of the earth and human life. To counter this drive, the National Association of Biology Teachers created a Fund for Freedom in Science Teaching for combating any legal challenges to classroom activities.
Does evolution really have all the answers? Or is it really just another religious faith held by many scientists?
In a 2005 court case, creationists were ridiculed and thoroughly trounced again in court. ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) lawyers challenged the Dover, Pennsylvania, school board's efforts to require that intelligent design be taught as an alternative explanation to the origin of the many forms of life on earth.
