Creationism Vs. Evolution One thing a lot of people argue about is creationism and evolution. Evolution is discussed and supported in a number of different places. Mostly, scientists use Darwin theory of evolution (Darwinism) to support their theories that man evolved from ape-man. Ape-man is the most common ancestor to use humans. On the other hand, most religious faiths support the idea of creationism. Creationism is the theory that humans were created in the hands of God. This theory is supported most heavily by Jewish and Christian faiths. Evolution and Creationism are like the two sides of a coin, because both try to provide us with an explanation of where we came from. The first viewpoint is the scientific viewpoint of evolution. This viewpoint is being teach all over the United State of America. So because of that the first thing that should pop in your mind about evolution should be Charles Darwin because he is the founder of natural selection of evolution. The first thing you should know is that Charles Darwin was born on February 12, 1809 and lived up to April 19, 1882 (lived for 73 years). Charles Darwin accepted evolution as a fact in that time most people disagree with him. Most or the most important of Charles Darwin research was made in the Galapagos Island (the Galapagos Island is located 600 miles directly west for Ecuador in South America). One of thing he found was that the same type of mocking bird looked different for island to island he went too. Another thing is that Charles Darwin saw that there was a slight variation in the shell of the tortoise (this show what island the tortoise came from). One of the fact are that we had a closed common ancestor know as the ape-man they lived about 15 to 40 million years ago, they walk like us put there were a lot of difference. The order of human evolution starts from primate, higher primate, hominoids, hominids. Most of The first primate
