Evolution, or Darwinism, offers a reasonable and highly logical explanation whereas the religious groups offer another logical explanation though in this explanation you have to presume certain assumptions taken from Genesis. Most creationists believe that the earth was c

Evolutionists claim that there are very few differences between micro- and macroevolution. They believe that there is no difference between micro- and macroevolution except that genes between species usually diverge, while genes within species usually combine. The same processes that cause within-species evolution are responsible for above-species evolution, except that the processes that cause speciation include things that cannot happen to lesser groups, such as the evolution of different sexual apparatus.

Creationists argue that evolution defies the second law of thermodynamics. The second law of thermodynamics states that when an imbalance exists between two systems there exists an opportunity for developing work that would be irrevocably lost if the systems were allowed to come into equilibrium in an uncontrolled way. Creationists believe that evolution, by creating highly complex creatures from chaos, contradicts this law. Evolutionists believe that the second law of thermodynamics applies only to closed systems. The Earth is not a closed system. If thermodynamics forbids evolution, then it would also forbid babies from growing to be adults, and parents from having children.

Creationists believe that radiometric dating is flawed. The basic premise behind radiometric dating is that a parent isotope in a rock or any other object containing the isotope decays over time into a daughter isotope at a known rate, specified by its "half-life". The validity of radiometric dating depends on three assumptions being correct. The decay rate being a constant, what the parent to daughter ratio was when the object was "created"; and that there has been no loss or addition of the parent or daughter component throughout its history. Creationists argue that the second two assumptions are incorrect. They say that the parent to daughter ratio is arbitrary and the notion that there would be no external loss or addition of parent or daughter components is very unlikely over millions of years. Evolutionists argue that they account for these "flaws" in the dating process.

Creationists argue that evolution did not happen but they give very little evidence that suggest that Genesis did. The majority of their arguments deal with so called "flaws" in evolution. In some cases they provide information such as dating that has shown the earth to be seventy-six million years old. In this example, creationists attempt to disprove evolution by saying that using this information there was not enough time for evolution to occur. If this information were true it would probably change or disprove evolution but it would also disprove Genesis. It seems that creation science's primary goal is to disprove evolution. Even if creationists disproved evolution they would be asking people to believe them due to a lack of any other alternative.

Creationism is rooted in the bible, but is not entirely unscientific. Modern creationists deal mainly in finding and presenting scientific fact that will work against evolution or give proof to Genesis. Creation scientists attempt to disprove evolution in any way possible. Some of their main arguments include their claim that natural sel
