Shaaban Fundi, Ph.D.
Going through the articles regarding creationism vs evolution has made me aware of the existence of the great debate that is boiling between the creationists and the evidence based supporters of the evolution process. I understand the fear that is held by the creationists about evolution and the significant challenge it possess to the creation only idea. As a science instructor representing the larger scientific community in a classroom, I feel that curriculum decisions based on the belief of creationism have no place in determining science standards.
To me, science is a particular way of knowing about the world. In science, explanations are limited to those based on observations and experiments that can be substantiated by other scientists. Explanations that cannot be based on empirical evidence are not a part of science. Thus, creationism, that provides explanations based on faith and not on empirical evidence has no part in science and no part in the science classroom.
Moreover, progress in science consists of the development of better explanations for the causes of natural phenomena. Scientists never can be sure that a given explanation is complete and final. Some of the hypotheses advanced by scientists turn out to be incorrect when tested by further observations or experiments. Yet many scientific explanations have been so thoroughly tested and confirmed that they are held with great confidence. The theory of evolution is one of these well-established explanations. An enormous amount of scientific investigation since the mid-19th century has converted early ideas about evolution proposed by Darwin and others into a strong and well-supported theory. Today the theory of evolution has become the bedrock of modern biology and is universally accepted by scientists as the engine for speciation.
However, creationists in their bid to get equal time in the science classroom, deliberately mislead the public by trying to present evolution as a controversial theory. I simply don’t understand why it is that today, more than 150 years after Charles Darwin published On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, we are still fighting over evolution. The Catholic Church has endorsed evolution; every competent biologist relies on its theoretical framework; and its mechanism and its consequences have been thoroughly documented. The theory of evolution has become the central unifying concept of biology and is a critical component of many related scientific disciplines. In contrast, the claims of creation science lack empirical support and cannot be meaningfully tested. These observations lead to two fundamental conclusions: the teaching of evolution should be an integral part of science instruction, and creation science is in fact not science and should not be presented as such in science classes.
The claim that equity demands balanced treatment of evolutionary theory and special creation in science classrooms reflects a misunderstanding of what science is and how it is conducted. Scientific investigators seek to understand natural phenomena by observation and experimentation. Scientific interpretations of facts and the explanations that account for them therefore must be testable by observation and experimentation.
Creationism, intelligent design, and other claims of supernatural intervention in the origin of life or of species are not science because they are not testable by the methods of science. These claims subordinate observed data to statements based on authority, revelation, or religious belief. Documentation offered in support of these claims is typically limited to the special publications of their advocates. These publications do not offer hypotheses subject to change in light of new data, new interpretations, or demonstration of error. This contrasts with science, where any hypothesis or theory always remains subject to the possibility of rejection or modification in the light of new knowledge.
No body of beliefs that has its origin in doctrinal material rather than scientific observation, interpretation, and experimentation should be admissible as science in any science course. Incorporating the teaching of such doctrines into a science curriculum compromises the objectives of public education. Science has been greatly successful at explaining natural processes, and this has led not only to an increased understanding of the universe but also to major improvements in technology and public health and welfare. The growing role that science plays in modern life requires that science, and not religion, be taught in science classes.
I am not advocating that students not have the right to believe in creationism. I am simply arguing that in the science classroom students be allowed to explore the truth about their own origin and the origin of their universe based on scientifically collected and proven evidence. In the science classroom, we teach students that all good science is based on the scientific method. Based on this method, we form hypothesis that we later test with experimentation. The evolutionary theory has undergone much experimentation over the past 150 years since Darwin first outlined his theory and for the most part this experimentation has upheld his ideas. Creationism, however, by its very nature, resists attempts to explore its validity using the scientific method. It is impossible to test this theory using experimentation. Thus, I believe that it has no place in the science classroom. I have no problems with it being taught as part of religious instruction or even in a philosophy class. However, I do not think it belongs in a science classroom simply because we cannot use scientific tools to understand and explore the idea.
I strongly reject the Creationists’ claim that if one believes that the theory of evolution is true then one necessarily must believe that there is no God, no meaning or purpose to life, and thus no moral accountability. This statement is completely wrong due to the fact that believing in evolution and believing in God are not mutually exclusive beliefs. The dilemma creationists have for themselves of being unable to reconcile science and religion should not be imposed upon the rest of world populous, and particularly not on educational systems. The courts have consistently ruled that “creation science” is actually a religious view. Because public education must be religiously neutral under the U.S. Constitution, the courts have held that it is unconstitutional to present creation science as legitimate scholarship. I believe that these court rulings should be upheld and creation science kept out of science instruction in the public education system.
Over the past 50 years, our world has become increasingly more technological and the need for students to understand scientific principles has become increasingly more important. If we want our public school students to compete on a global level it is essential that we teach them sound scientific principles and keep creationism out of the science classroom.
Probably one of the biggest topics of discussion and maybe even the biggest question is “how did we get here?”. Creationism is the belief that the universe and living organisms originate from specific acts of divine creation, as in the biblical account, rather than by natural processes such as evolution. Personally, i do not believe in creationism. There is actual science to back up evolutionism, but the only evidence found for creationism is in the bible. And the bible isn’t even real. They’re practically stories. Of course people that believe in God or Jesus or what have you will believe in creationism.
Evolutionism is a change in the gene pool of a population from generation to generation by such process as mutilation and natural selection. I do believe that there is a higher being, not necessarily a specific god, but i don’t agree with creationism. It is possible for religious people to also believe in evolutionism. It just takes the person to educate themselves and look at real facts and real science instead of believing the bible.
I believe that evolutionism should be taught in our schools instead of creationism unless its a private school or a christian/religious school. Not every child is religious and forcing it upon the children is brainwashing and wrong. Of course not everyone’s parent is going to agree, but there are still people out there who don’t agree with black people yet school still teach black history. If a parent wants their kid to believe in creationism, then it’s the parents job to teach that to their kid on their own time instead of forcing non-religious children to be force fed things they don’t believe. Maybe give a chance for children to hear both sides so that when the children get older they can decide what to believe in for themselves.

This article is interesting when you look at the history behind this debate. In the 20’s, there was a high school teacher named Thomas Scopes that wished to teach evolution as a THEORY, and only a non-binding theory, in his science classes. This was in rural Tennessee, so very religiously conservative. Of course many strongly opposed this, and there was even a law in Tennessee that prohibited even mentioning evolution in schools. Scopes got a lawyer, and this went all the way to the Tennessee Supreme Court. The ruling decided that evolution may be taught as a THEORY, but not fact. This case was the first of it’s kind in all of America, and slowly but surely, court cases like this paved the way for increased scientific teachings in America revolving around evolution.
So my stance may be clear on the discussion controversy. I do not believe creationism has a place in schools, or even the 21st century world. We have too much evidence to support evolution, and creationism is simply a bygone relic of a bygone age, which some people ignorantly cling to for whatever reason. Don’t get me wrong, anyone can believe what they want, as long as it doesn’t interfere with the truth in important situations.

Evolution is a scientifically-sound idea that is the basis for many types of sciences studied today. With the effectiveness of Biologists, Doctors, etc. using this theory, it is essentially as proven as it can be in today’s world that evolution is how we were created. Religion, which was written in a very old time and based on different beliefs depending on the culture, is essentially a story created to explain things. I am not saying that religion and God isn’t a legitimate belief, but when it comes to explaining things and empowering our scientists, religion has no concrete evidence of it’s idea of creationism. Overall, this is a good article representing a solid argument and thorough examination of both the evidence of evolution and the philosophies of creationism.

https://polldaddy.com/js/rating/rating.jsThe ongoing debate on evolution vs creationism is utterly absurd. Evolution is one of the most well supported scientific theories as well as one of the most revolutionary and groundbreaking. Additionally, it has led us to understand infinitely more about science and help build other theories. Undermining the spectacular work of Charles Darwin is not only absurd but a humiliation to science.
Supporters of creationism do not have any empirical scientific evidence to back up their theory. In fact, the only reasoning is the bible which claims that God created the world in seven days. As holy as important as the bible is, it should not always be taken literally and should always be up for interpretation. Who’s to say how long “seven days” is? Also, a common argument of creationist is that people who believe in evolution are not religious and do not believe and God and are therefore evil people. As important as religion is, it should never limit our curiosity and exploration of our world and our origins. As Neil Degrasse Tyson once explained, by creating this image of “god”, it is essentially closed the door to further research on the origin of ourselves because it created a simple spiritual answer, with no scientific evidence to back up. Everyone has the right to believe whatever they would like, but it seems obvious to me that creationism should be kept out of the school curriculum.

Evolution is interesting to me that creationists do not think the two will coexist.

This article is extremely eye-opening. The argument between creationism and evolution is very heated, yet in essence unnecessary. One can believe in God without ignoring or refuting science. Charles Darwin and many other scientists have dedicated their lives to the study of evolution. There is widespread support and proof of evolution. Therefore, it should be impossible to ignore. In addition, students should be allowed to formulate their own opinions and explore their beliefs through science, Without it, we would believe false stories without testing the validity of these statements.

I agree with this article. Because evolution is proven by scientific facts and data, there is no way to disagree with Darwin’s ideas. While the theory of creation can be used from a religious perspective, it should not impact a child’s right to knowledge on natural selection in public schools. Believing in God and believing in evolution are mutually inclusive. This article does a good job of showing this point. Natural selection is a theory that has been tested and observed, showing why it is science– a part of our lives and how we came to be.

This article contained strong points advocating for the teaching of evolution in science classrooms. I do believe that they are two very opposite ideas, one being scientifically based and one being philosophically based on religion. Therefore, since public schools must not advocate for a certain religion, creationism should not be taught in classrooms as long as evolution is not pushed upon the student either. The point regarding the possibility of a belief in both evolution and a superior being was interesting because often times people believe one can not exist with the other. Since the student still maintains the right to believe in their religion and creationism even after learning of evolution, it should be able to be taught in science classrooms because it is scientifically based and a great example of exploration and investigation.

The article creates a perfectly valid argument with very strong points to support the argument that is being made. It makes absolutely no sense to teach creationism in a science class as creationism cannot be supported with evidence through the usage of the scientific method. Additionally, it is completely reasonable for one to be able to believe in both creationism and evolution as the two beliefs are compatible. However, the teaching of creationism within a public school should not be allowed as this clearly violates the principle of separation of church and state. A belief that is deeply founded in religion, while completely plausible, should not be taught within a school that is supported by the government. This would only encourage state sponsored religion, which is a dangerous precedent for a nation that encourages a diverse set of beliefs and opinions. This article presents a very logical and sound argument that is both backed up by evidence and logic.

I really like this topic for a few reasons. One, I have a point of view from both sides of this debate, creationism and evolution. Two, it has always been something that interests me and I have done a lot of research about it. To begin, I work for my synagogue and I know many creationists and their beliefs. It gives me perspective because they believe that God made us, and we are his children. I understand this belief because it gives everybody faith and it gives life a reason, in contrast to being on an endless journey of confusion. On the other hand, I am an evolutionist and so are many of my friends. I think that science is the only viable evidence and that following a book should not be legit. Because of my relationship to both sides, I have a theory of my own that I would like to share. What if God simply created a small organism like the original bacteria and gave it the ability to evolve. This theory combines evolutionism and creationism, and it could be backed with the same evidence backing evolution.

I believe this article has some strong points. The theory of evolution has indeed been widely explored and loads of evidence have been found to prove the ideology. Having faith while exploring in the science realm should be no issue at all. Therefore, we have created the first amendment: the separation of church and state. However, students should learn all sides of the story before making their opinion as science is never a fact.

I completely agree. I do not think that creationism can be sustained in any sort of science classroom because it does not follow the foundational form of investigation in all fields of science; the scientific method.

I do not think that Creationism has any place in a science classroom, especially in a public school.

This article was very interesting to read. I completely agree on the fact that evolution and creation are two separate things. Evolution is science, that has, for the most part, been proven throughout the scientific method. This is not possible with religion. Religion can not be proven, and that is the reason so many are either drawn to it or drawn away from it, people are curious and want a further meaning to life. A person can believe in both creationism and evolution, but this does not mean creationism should be taught in a science classroom. Evolution is not taught to steer one away from creationism, it is taught to further explain science.

I agree with this article. Since there is absolutely no evidence supporting creationism, and even some disproving it, there is no reason it should be taught in schools. Furthermore, I see to reason why religious people can’t accept that maybe Evolution is part of their God’s plan? A long time ago science and religion where seen as explaining the how and the why the world worked. I feel like that was a very good system where science and religion worked together. But because of separation of church and state, any religious theory should not be taught in public schools.

So I agree with article, religion and science should be separated in science classes. We don’t have any proof or evidence of Creationism being an actual thing. To say that The Theory of Evolution makes life meaningless is pure ignorance. We have facts, experiments, data to back of evolution, religion is based of a book and a belief. I’m not saying creationism isn’t real, we just have no factual proof. I’m also not saying evolution made the earth and all things, because if that was true Mr. Fundis’ homework wouldn’t have been made. Back to what I was saying, we know evolution from whats already alive, we know evolution because organisms change with shifts in there environment. I don’t think personally that evolution is what made us, it is certainly a thing. Unlike Creationism science you have to hope what your believing in is real.

Then force the Students in the Public Schools to learn that and be graded for that, when evolution can’t be tested or experimented. That means that the same way students are forced to learn that, they should also have the opportunity to learn from The creation of God because it is written in a Holy book. It’s the same concept involved because evolution can’t be tested nor the Creation. So I think there should be a balance. Either both of them or Neither should be taught at public schools.

The issue with Creationism in modern day is that many parts of Christianity endorse evolution, including the Catholic Church. Therefore, I believe that creationism is not a valid philosophy because there are many dissenters within the religion that decided that it was invalid.

This article discusses how that we should teach evolution in the classroom and there are several reasons that are explained in this article about why Creationism should not be taught in the classroom. I see the point that is being made, but to me this is not a simple black and white problem it is far more complex. I believe in Creationism and that God formed beings in some way weather it was the big bang or the seven days of creation as stated in the Bible, or some other way, although that is a whole other topic for another time. I also believe in evolution. Some people may say how can you believe in both and its very simple. So part of the theory is that all life came from a common organism which is debatable and it could’ve been how that we were all created. I don’t know if we will ever find out the truth on how we were created but I do think that evolution should be taught in the classroom along with possible class options for people who believe in creationism.

This is because many students simply do not believe in creationism and it is technically not science because it cannot be proven. While students obviously have the right to believe whatever they want outside of the classroom, science should be taught in science courses. While it might be beneficial for students to see multiple points of view, in a public school system, religion should be left out.

This article explains why evolution should be taught in school as it is based on reason and logic, however, I also think Creationism should be discussed briefly as well so that the students are informed of the two points of view. I believe that Creationism and evolution are not just black and white topics because people can believe in evolution and still have a strong faith in God at the same time. If anything it could be argued that Evolution shows the beautiful creations made by God. However, because everyone has such a vast range of view and opinions, I think the public school system should continue to teach science based on evolution. Everyone should have religious freedom and the right to hold their own beliefs. Therefore, Evolution is a subjective way to teach that prevents religious disputes from occurring in school and allows students to focus on their work.

I totally agree with the article in that Creationism cannot be scientifically tested and therefore have no place in a science classroom. I think as long as science is taught in an unbiased way and doesn’t influence any students to give up their religion, Creationism should be allowed to taught without any bias. It is honestly futile to make an attempt at teaching Creationism in a science classroom, due to there being no substantial evidence or practice to test the theory. Creationism is a concept we humans choose to believe and it’s perfectly fine, rather it often teaches children great moral values and traditions. While I heartedly believe in God, I separate my faith from my scientific learning and encourage everyone else to do the same

Hello Mr.Fundi! Early monday morning as it may be, here is my response. Coming from a family that is very religious, I have to say that creationism, albeit a form of escapism, as indirectly labeled in your argument, sets a a good moral foundation for children, depending on what is being taught to you. First of all, while my relatives believe in god heavily, I do not, and a lot of it has to do with the fact that there was undeniable evidence regarding the theory of “evolution” while I grew up. I think evolution is everywhere around us, biological and conceptual.
For example, planes evolved over time, in a course of less than a hundred years, from the Amelia Airheart and the Wright Brothers to our sophisticated airforce technology.
That is why I think of “Evolution” as a misnomer now. Rather, I think Natural Selection is what the debate should be about. Evolution is not a debate, but rather the latter involving common ancestors.

While I do believe that every person has a right to practice which ever religion they prefer, science offers a different argument that is extremely important. I personally believe that creationism should be learned out side of public schooling. If a student has a religious belief that is so strong that they cannot bear to expand their knowledge and learn new information, then they can pay money to go to a private school and practice their religion there. In science classes now, creationism is excluded because it is not a part of science, but a part of culture. I believe that it should stay this way, so that each public school student is taught fact, not opinion.

I personally believe both are somehow implemented in the ways of the world.
Now days science has one definition when really it should have many. In my opinion science is based off a bunch of opinions and idea that people feel everyone should know about, as we should. Creationism and evolution are constitutive parts of science along with many others and the conversation of them both should never be restricted or cut down. Religion itself is science anyways.

Very interesting…I agree that in a public school system run by a secular government there should be a distinct seperation of church and state! However I don’t think creationism should be ignored in schools. Maybe its not something to be discussed in a biology class but I do think it is important for students to learn to be open-minded. If it took Darwin until the 19th century to discover the theory of evolution, there is still plenty of time for more scientific proof of creationism to appear. Being open-minded is an important skill to have in the connected world we now live in today. I believe being open to new ideas drives progress in today’s society and is also an important aspect to the scientific method. Religion can be such a taboo thing in public schools but as “scientists” we should be ready to explore any possibility; whether thats all living organisms evolving from a single cell or humankind being created by a divine being.

I agree with the article on the fact that evolution should remain as the theory taught in science class. Creationism should not be taught under the current Constitution of the United States. It is scientifically teachable. The articles clears up some misconceptions of the arguments between creationism and evolution. The use of the evolution theory goes along with other findings in the world of science, and along with those other findings they have been proven wrong over time. It depends on what the students choose to believe or not.
I personally believe in creationism as a believer of Jesus as my savior. I believe God created Adam and Eve. We are all descendants of Adam and Eve. If this were taught in school then people would likely not pay attention or rebel after being forced to learn it. It is all about personnel belief.

After reading the article, I think that the argument and/or controversial topic of “Creationism vs. Evolution” is a very difficult thing to discuss due to the fact that it’s truly an argument between religion and science. When speaking of Creationism, it correlates with the idea that “God created the heavens and the Earth”. On the contrary, when speaking on Evolution, it is believed that the world was created due to the: Big Bang Theory which believes that there was an explosion of rocks that spread the planets across the galaxy. In many worldwide religions, the study of science and history clashes because of the teachings in the Bible. I personally am a Christian, but I am sceptic because I believe in science also because it can be proven…instead of something we as Christians are forced to believe in if we’d want to enter the palace of God. I believe that the world was created from some scientific force similar, if not equal to The Big Bang Theory. To conclude, I do not agree with the people that believe that it is blasphemy to believe the accusations of scientists and the Christian religion. By the way, I find this article very interesting because I can not only hear an outside opinion but I liked how you introduced your side of things. Good job Mr. Fundi!

I did enjoy reading this article; however, i do believe that we should learn about both situations. We should be taught the comparisons of both topics.

I think it would be very interesting to learn both ways, and it will help us also in the future to see how one side sees how evolution evolved and learn also from the other side. The schools should be allowed to show both ways, I don’t think it would hurt to try.

This article really caused me to think about what my thoughts are based on Religion vs. Evolution. I am a religious person but I have to believe that creatures who first roamed the earth didn’t look just exactly like we do today. I believe that God created life in this world because something had to. But I don’t think that we started out looking like we do today. We evolved. I don’t necessarily think we were strait up monkeys but we definitely had different more ape-like features. This theory of Evolution had been proved through many experiments and data collections of Science. But we have to understand that something did create us? We couldn’t have just made the world by ourselves.

I can agree with this article completely. I for one don’t believe in creationism. There is too much evidence of evolution to make it true. Having creationism taught in school is a bad idea. It is a religious concept, which disregards all rules about religion in public schools. When it comes to evolution though, that should definitely be taught in public schools. It has proof and you can test the theory. People should not be offended by scientific evidence. I found this article very interesting and a great topic to discuss.

This article was extremely interesting. But I believe that creationism and evolution are to very different things.

But the people in favor of evolution seem to think that everything slowly evolved, which is more likely i believe.

The Evolution vs. Creationism Controversy in America is a really good debate! In Science classrooms, we learn about how humans evolved from animals. Outside of school though, we learn that humans were made from god or whatever you believe in. When it comes down to it, i believe that both theories can be discussed inside a classroom without there being a big issue. In my opinion, i would say you could incorporate both theories on Evolution. You cant really make someone believe humans descended from something other then God, if they have a strong belief or faith, in God. On the other hand, you can explain the differences between the two theories without rejecting one another. No one has proof to how Evolution started, so no one can really say that is wrong. Nice Article Mr. Fundi!

I agree with the whole basis of this article that creationism should not be taught in school because it is a religious belief. However, I also have issues with how this article seems so lump all religious people together. For instance, “The Catholic Church has endorsed evolution”. What is that supposed to prove? That just because one religious group accepts it that we all should? Also this article seems to speak for all religions and how the all believe creationism yet I think its really just trying to say Christians. Being a Christian who hasn’t studied other religions that deeply, i honestly don’t know about how they feel about creationism. For instance, i’m not sure all Islam’s, Bhuddists or Hindu’s just automatically believe in creationism. So this article needs to be more specific. Im also confused about something the article said; “Science has been greatly successful at explaining natural processes, and this has led not only to an increased understanding of the universe but also to major improvements in technology and public health and welfare”. How has explaining the natural process benefited public health and welfare? I don’t quite get that. And just as a parting note, Darwin’s book name isn’t just “The Origin of Species Through Means of Natural Selection”. The book’s full and original name is “The Origin of Species Through Means of Natural Selection: The Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life”. And seeing as how race is only applied to people, i think the esteemed father of evolution was actually a tad racist and that they had to take that part of the book’s title out so as to not offend people and to not soil his reputation seeing as how racism is a very socially unacceptable thing now and nobody would respect him anymore for fear of being called racists themselves. Those are just my personal thoughts

Although I never spoke of it with my parents (they are biased, devout Christians), I’ve had conversations about this many times with my peers. My friends have given valid scientific arguments as to why the theory of evolution is more realistic, but the fact that I go to church most Sundays out of the year is why I cannot fully have the complete scientific perspective.

So, because he wrote a book, I am suppose to believe that evolution has happened? I don’t think so. I strongly oppose to the exploring “of the origin of the student”. I believe that my origin is from God period. I’ve always thought that the talk of evolution are just people that don’t believe in God that have always wanted to change the perspective on the outlook of the people that do believe in God, then again that is my look upon it. I have always liked and hated this topic. Like because it gives me more reasons why I shouldn’t believe in evolution, nothing will ever change my mind on that. Most of the people that I have this conversation with is very rare that I ever get a firm yes or no, I would usually get a “I don’t know”, “both” etc. I usually tell the person that says ‘both’ to explain themselves, usually what I would get is something like because they believe in The Holy Bible, and because if we evolved from Apes then are Apes going to reach a point in their lives where they are going to magically turn into humans. Plus, there really isn’t proof such as fossils and bones and such to prove that evolution has happened. Just saying.
