Evolution or Creation, which is correct? The Theory of Evolution has been a source of great controversy in the religious world for many decades. This theory was first put forward by a British naturalist named Charles Darwin. Darwin was originally planning to make religion his chosen field of endeavor, but he had some questions about the true nature of Creation, and so embarked upon a worldwide tour to examine nature on the world's major continents in order to gain a better understanding of the subject.
In December of 1831, Darwin set sail aboard the HMS Beagle on a five-year voyage around the world. During his trip, Darwin visited a small group of islands known as the Galopagos, off the West coast of South America, and was surprised by some very unusual animal species he found there that differed greatly from similar species on the nearby South American mainland. When Darwin returned home, he immediately canceled his plans to go into the church, and decided instead to further explore the world of science.
Darwin eventually developed a controversial theory based upon the earlier "Survival of the Fittest" theory of Charles Russel Wallace, that described certain alterations of animal species, and even the creation of new species, through a slow process of genetic adaptation to new and different environments over time. Darwin theorized it must have been this same process that was responsible for the genetic improvement of all species, including man. Darwin developed a theory that man must have evolved from the lesser apes over a period of a few million years. The scientific and academic communities were fascinated by Darwin's new theory, and before long, science museums all over the world had on prominent display, a series of models representing the many evolutionary changes that had taken place in the slow evolutionary development of man from apes. Archeological digs were initiated all over the world to locate the many "missing links" in the evolutionary development of mankind.
Darwin's theory however, infuriated many people within the church world of America, who believed in the concept of Original Creation as described in the book of Genesis. Darwin's controversial theory began to be taught in America's schools, and eventually resulted in a famous court battle to prevent the teaching of Evolutionary Theory in the Tennesee public school system. The trial gained world wide attention as the famous 1925 "Monkey Trial". Creationists eventually won the case, but the verdict was later overturned on a technicality in Tennesee's Supreme Court.
Archeologists soon discovered fossil remains from many different periods of time that did indeed seem to support Darwin's controversial theory. Some of these remains were dated as far back as two or three million years. These archeological finds were closely examined for such evolutionary indicators as canine tooth development, design of the foot (apes had feet shaped more like hands for climbing), and comparative length of legs and arms, as well as hip design to indicate whether or not these early hominids were able to stand erect. Scientists were soon able to produce a solid trail of fossil evidence over approximately the last three million years, that clearly indicated a slow evolutionary development of ape-like creatures that possessed large canines, short legs, long arms, and walked upon their knuckles, into more human-like creatures that finally began to appear in the last half of the last million years of man's evolutionary development.
Archeologists unearthed the remains of many ape-like creatures that lived as long as two or three million years ago. They then discovered more human-like specimens like "Java Man," who lived only about 750,000 years ago and possessed a skull that appeared a bit more humanoid, but still exhibiting large canine teeth. This discovery was followed by "Pekin Man" who lived about 500,000 years ago and had an even more human-like skull design. They then found the remains of "Heidelberg Man" and "Rhodesian Man" who were early hominids that lived as recently as 250,000 years ago. And finally, they documented the existence of the nearly human "Neanderthals" from only 100,000 years ago, and "Cro-Magnons" from about 75,000 years ago. These early hominids clearly had human-like skeletal structures. Then the modern "Homo-sapiens" ultimately appeared about 40,000 years ago. By the late 1960's, the scientific community was finally able to clearly prove its case for human evolutionary theory, and successfully convinced the US Supreme Court to allow the teaching of the Theory of Evolution in America's schools.
But then, only a few years later, a shocking scientific discovery was made in Africa that would totally blow the lid off Darwin's controversial theory. This surprising archeological find would completely undermine Darwin's theory of the slow evolution of mankind from apes, and actually confirm many traditional Bible views on the process of Creation. It now appears that homo-sapiens did not gradually evolve from the early apes after all.
