One part that stood out to me as very similar was that the last day in both man was created. In the Mayan version it is referred to the birth of life and man is created. In the Judo-Christian version man is created when Adam and Eve were created

one of the oldest and most extensive historical documents we have‚ recorded with great precision‚ while evolution is very logical and builds on numerous scientific disciplines. Yet creation and evolution seem diametrically opposed. If we were created randomly and purposelessly‚ as evolution suggests‚ then the creation account of a sculptor molding his clay to make man appears erroneous.

The Inspiration of Caedmon The poem "Caedmon‚" written by Denise Levertov‚ enlists readers to learn more about God and creation and by doing so expands their understanding of the universe.

When the Bible speaks of creation it simply declares that God spoke the world into existence.
