Order organisms evolved or were created Creation: 1.day, night 2.atmosphere 3. Land,seas, plants 4. Sun,moon,stars, seasons 5. Birds, aquatic animals 6. Land animals and humans Evolution: over time, evolved to have ability to reproduce sexually
Fossil record Creation: the fossil was covered by mud when the great flood happen Evolution: the fossil record provides snapshots or the past that, when assembled, illustrate a panorama of evolutionary change over the past billion years
Vestigial organs Creation: "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being” (Gen 2.7). Evolution: uses vestigial organs to explain how different species were created
Homologous Creation: God created everything in his own image Evolution: predicts that related organisms will share similarities that are derived from common ancestors.
Analogous organs Creation: Some organs superficially appear to be similar and perform the same function. For example, their wings allow butterflies and birds to fly; and both cats and beetles use their legs to walk. But these creatures have completely different genetic and anatomical structures. This kind of similarity is only superficial. Evolution: Analogous structures are ones that basically have th same function but not the same underlying structure. Examples: Bat's wing & Fly's wing- they both are used to help the creature fly, but they have diff patterns in bone structure.
Geography Creation: Isaiah 40:22 It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in; Evolution: The distribution of living things on the globe provides information about the past histories of both living things and the surface of the Earth.
Embryology Creation: Jeremiah 1:4-5 Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” Evolution: The new field of "evo-devo"–an integration of evolutionary biology with our growing understanding of embryonic development–is an exciting a fruitful area of intense scientific research.
