WHO HAS THE MOST EVIDENCE-

EVOLUTION OR CREATION?

Page 2: An presentation by Rachel M. Klaus. The fact is, we both have the same evidence. Both groups, Evolution and Creation, don’t see that it is not a matter

So who has more?The fact is, we both have the same

evidence. Both groups, Evolution and Creation, don’t see that it is not a

matter of their evidence versus ours. We both have the data, yet the problem

is how we interpret it.

An interview to consider*Ken Ham, the Founder of AIG (Answers in Genesis), was once debating with an

Evolutionist:. . .

Interviewer: “Well today we have a creationist who believes he has evidence for creation, and on the other side we have an evolutionist who believes he has evidence to support evolution.”

Ken Ham: “I want to get something straight here. I actually have the same evidence the evolutionist has – the battle is not about the evidence or facts, as they are all the same. We live on the same earth, in the same universe, with the same plants and animals, the same fossils. The facts are the same.”

Evolutionist: “But you’re here about the Bible – this is religion. As an evolutionist I’m involved in real science.”

Ken Ham: “Actually as a creationist, I have no problem with your observational science; it’s the same science I understand and trust. This is the science that builds our technology. The argument is not about observational science or about facts – ultimately, the argument is about how you interpret the facts – and this depends upon your belief about history (which we call historical or origins science). The real difference is that we used to interpret the facts of the present.”

A few examples1. Lets consider the sciences of genetics and natural selection. Evolutionists

believe in natural selection, so do us creationists. Evolutionist accept the science of genetics, creationists do too. However here is the difference: evolutionists believe that in over millions of years, one kind of animal transformed into a whole new animal. We as creationist believe that God created different types of animals and plants to reproduce their OWN KIND therefore they CANNOT TURN INTO A TOTALLY DIFFERENT KIND.

2. Lets say that a person with a biblical worldview looks at you and sees a unique individual created by God. Yet an evolutionist looks at you and sees no more than a product of random accidents over countless generations. YOU ARE STILL YOU – yet it’s just people are “seeing” you differently.

So down to the facts…So when it comes down to it, there are just two different groups with

the same data and different interpretations. But, both can’t be right! And God is never wrong. In reality, all evidence is God’s. So therefore expect to see

this…
