Creation Stories and Their Comparisons to the Biblical Creat

The first creation story I will write about is the Australian aborigine legend of how their world came into existence. Baiame created the earth, the plants, trees, rocks, mountains, and animals. Baiame, lord of the earth, walked upon the earth he had made, passing through the plants and walking among the animals, then Baiame created a man and a woman to rule over them. He made the man and the woman from the dust of the ridges and thus said unto them, “Here are the plants you shall eat, these and these, but you may not eat the animals I have created.” After placing them in a good and beautiful place, Baiame, the all-father and lord of the earth, departed.

Then Talapas told T’soona the thunderbird to take the special eggs from Otelagh, the sun, and place them place them on the top of Kaheese, the mountain near Kakitlwimakl, the Columbia river. T’soona did as Talapas had instructed. When T’soona was gone the Old Giantess, not wanting any of the eggs to hatch, began to break them. While she was breaking the eggs, the vengeful Spirit Bird quickly descended upon the Old Giantess, killing her with fire for her injustice. Soon after the Spirit Bird left, the eggs that were left hatched and became the Chinook.

God creates the world in six days, whereas it is unclear how long it took to create the world in the other three creation stories. God breathes life into Adam, yet nothing is told about this happening in the other three accounts of creation. God instructs his creation to be fruitful and multiply in numbers, but Abassi forbids the humans to multiply. The God of the Bible is omnipotent, whereas Abassi, Baiame, and Talapas all share power with other gods or deities

The similarities between the true, biblical account of creation and the different stories of creation among the Australian Aborigines, American Indians, and African Natives are as follows.

One will see that even though the three creation stories differ from one another in context and in how they contrast to the true biblical creation account, they still point towards the fact that the world was created and did not evolve as some say.
