The Bible provides an account of Creation in the book of Genesis. Evolution is taught as a fact in schools. Creation versus Evolution, the two models are very different - so which one is right? Many people believe science has proved the Bible is wrong. Could it be that science and the Bible have the same author? If so, then maybe they aren't in conflict after all.
Six ways into the conversation.
I don't think God exists
Consider morality, design in the Universe and the complexity of the human brain.

The photo below shows two archaeologists with the fossilised remains of a dinosaur. The one on the right believes in atheistic evolution; the Universe spontaneously evolved billions of years ago, the dinosaur died about 200 million years ago and there is no God. The guy on the left believes in a literal interpretation of the Bible; the Universe was created thousands of years ago, the dinosaur died after Noah’s flood and God created the Universe out of nothing. They are looking at the same evidence, but have different presuppositions and they reach different conclusions.
Scientist Johannes Kepler said “Science is thinking God’s thoughts after Him”.
Albert Einstein said, “Everyone who is seriously interested in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe, a spirit vastly superior to man, and one in the face of which our modest powers must feel humble.”
Is Albert Einstein right? Is there a God?
We all have the same evidence.
So, in the debate of creation vs evolution, it comes down to interpretation.
Was anyone there at the beginning? Here are some quotes from the Bible:
“
By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
Hebrews 11:3
“
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not understood it.
