So what is it? Creation or Evolution? Both sides have continuously pointed out, flaws and loop holes in each others beliefs, where one side believes in God that created all things, and the other side where they believe in the big bang, and from that bacteria evolved over billions of years etc, to the stage we are at now.
Creation claims that, there is a God/Higher Being who created this world in order, and all was perfect, they don't believe that just be random chance did we come about. Creationists have high religious views which are all found in Genesis the book in the Bible, whose authors were all inspired by God to write material free of error. Having flawless information, they cannot be wrong.
Evolutionist instead of the Bible, their beliefs are based on science. their theory is the big bang, and from that things evolved, such as bacteria locked in the rocks, started to adapt to the surroundings around them finally bringing all things to the present state. Because their process takes billions of years to form, they don't believe that the Bible is correct because in science anything can be falsified when new evidence arises.
Creationist Ideas~
Creationist think that, nothing came by chance but we were made by reason and intelligent design. Using the Bible as their basis and evidence, they want to convey to others that we came around out of reasoning and not chance. "Michael J Behe" a creationist said "Irreducibly complex systems appear very unlikely to be produced by numerous, successive, slight modifications of prior systems", Creationists also believe nothing actually is getting better, but instead we are degenerating instead of evolving. (Intelligent Design? , 2008)
Evolutionist Ideas~
Evolutionist think that over huge periods of time our world formed and came together, approximately 15 billion years has this universe been around and about 4.5billions old is Earth.
One of the evolutionists respected scientists, well actually biologist was a man by the name of "Charles Darwin" he came up with the theory of natural selection. this is where strange mutations were allowed to live, eg. a crab with a human face on its shell would be tossed away back in the day. They believe that as time goes on we are getting better, or at least thinking differently.
I think that evolutionist should think harder about how the world came about, they have not talked about how the big bang actually started, their ideas of in the beginning there was nothing, then nothing exploded and then a whole universe was formed. their ideas of billions of years sounds more like guess work than facts, for it to really be true they would have to be there and see it, however thats impossible unless we one day invent a time machine.
To me creation seems more real, there is obviously a higher being out there thats used intelligent design or thats what they call it, everything seems to be put into place quite magnificently but many people who don't believe what the bible holds inside as truth, instead seeking evidence in front of their eyes.
Again i think these people cannot believe evolution theory as evolutionists themselves have not been to that time, but in fact they are just guessing that things just happen to get better over time, nothing they have is from seeing it happen but guessing.
The bible is written by many authors, all apparently inspired by God, there are actually scrolls or should i say hard copies of these books which are found in the bible, all by different authors all talking about same things, further more they are all from different times! Thats why i believe what is written inside the Bible, But most people don't believe there is a God, hence eliminating the whole idea of creation or intelligent design.
What are your opinions about evolution or creations please feel free to comment xD

Creation VS Evolution
Introduction
Throughout time, creation and evolution have been fiercely disputed, ever since the late 1700's.
First of all there are a few groups who believe in such things, main groups being. New Earth Creationist, Old World Creationists, Scientific View and the Theistic evolution View.

New Earth creationists believe that the earth, its life forms, and the rest of the universe were created by God during a six day, 144 hour, interval, fewer than 10,000 years ago. Only very minor changes within various species have happened since creation. No new species have evolved or been created. In North America, this belief system is mainly promoted by Christians who believe that God Inspired the authors of the Hebrew Scriptures (a.k.a. Old Testament) to write inerrant text.
Old Earth creationists believe that geology and radiometric dating has shown that the world is billions of years old. They believe that God created the Earth itself, the earth's life forms, and the rest of the universe at that time. Those old earth creationists who believe in the literal interpretation of an inerrant Bible interpret the six "day" creation interval as occupying a very long interval of time.
Scientific viewed people think the origin of the universe occurred about 15 billion years ago. The earth coalesced about 4.5 billion years ago. Life subsequently began, probably as bacteria deep in rocks, and has been evolving ever since. These various processes have been driven by purely natural forces, without input from a God or a Goddess or multiple deities.
Theistic evolution viewed people think that Evolution, etc. happened just as scientists believe. However, it is viewed as a tool created, used, directed, and/or controlled by God in order to accomplish a higher purpose -- the creation of humans. This includes Intelligent Design, A.K.A (ID).
