4. Evolution and Creation

 

It may be speculated about, or it may be assumed by faith.

The theory of evolution begins with matter or substance already in existence. A fairly representative statement of this aspect of it is illustrated by Huxley's dictum, “The whole world living and not living is the result of the mutual attraction according to definite laws of the powers possessed by the molecules of which the primitive nebulosity of the universe was composed” (Life of Darwin, II, 210).


This statement leaves two things unaccounted for, namely, molecules in the form of a “primitive nebulosity” and “powers possessed by these molecules.”


How did primitive nebulosity come to exist?


How did it come to be composed of molecules possessed of certain powers, and how did there come to be definite laws governing these molecules?


The agnostic answers, “We do not know, we shall not know” (ignoramus, ignorabimus, DuBois-Reymond). The pantheist says, “They are the substance and attributes of the Ultimate Being.” The theist posits “an uncased Cause who is greater than they, and possesses all the potentialities exhibited in them, together with much more (therefore at least a personal being), has brought them into existence by the power of His will” (compare EPICUREANS).


The purpose of the theory of evolution exists for one only, to erase God from the equation.

The words evolution, evolved or evolved are not

found in the bible, but that of created and creation.
