Reconciling Genesis & Science: Unlocking the Theories of Creation

All of us are innately curious about the beginning of the Universe and how we got here. Today, as with politics, Americans are divided over the issues of evolution and creationism, but few ever strive to comprehend the details surrounding this controversy. My purpose is to unveil convincing theories, from all perspectives, and let the readers decide which are most compelling. Hopefully, what makes scientific sense and what does not, will become evident. More importantly, my hopes are that proponents from both sides of the issue will become less adversarial by gaining each other's perspective. It is understood that the questions surrounding the existence of the Universe are significant, but are they so divisive as to make enemies of those who disagree and are sincerely seeking to find the truth? Hopefully, an understanding of our opponents' motivations and theories may create some degree of understanding and compassion. It might even be possible for people with opposing views to become colleagues and friends.

Have you ever heard that modern man may have existed for over a million years?

Are you aware that there might be a vast difference between the orbital and atomic calendars?

Did you know that modern research suggests that we are less like chimpanzees than first suggested?

Can you believe that there is evidence that the human brain is still evolving?

Have you considered that the mighty Zulus and the tiny Pygmies in Africa prove Darwin's theory of microevolution?

This and much more awaits you; but first let us see why we believe what we believe about evolution and creationism through the eyes of philosophy.
