Science has been clashing with biblical stories long time before Charles Darwin, the renowned British naturalist, published his book “On the Origin of Species” in 1859. In 1809 Jean Baptise Lamarck was the first scientist to ignite the flame on this issue by boldly claiming in his essay “Philosphie Zoologique” that evolution occurs among animals over a prolonged period of time. On June 18th, 1858 when Darwin announced his theory of evolution in public, many people disagreed with his ideas, because he indirectly repudiated the Bible story in which the earth and all the creatures, including Adam and Eve, were c

As 18th century progressed, the conflicting thoughts of science and religion resulted into the controversy of existence of God. The two groups confuting over this matter can be easily categorized as “evolutionist” and “creationists”. Evolutionists are the individuals who believe in evolution or any other theory rather than a theory based on belief. According to evolutionist, our present is the result of evolution. They support their views with scientific facts, theories, reasoning and evidence. Whereas, on the other side of the coin we have creationist who believe that the reason why we exist today is because of the all mighty creator of all, God. Their thinking is based on faith, belief and acceptance.

Recently creationists have been raising the issue about ID (intelligence design). The only explanation of the ID situation given so far is by Micheal Behe, professor of biochemistry at Lehign University in Pennsylvania. He states “the human eye consist of many parts that are only useful when working together to bring someone vision.” Doubting the capabilities of evolution, he questions weather the eye had formed gradually through evolution when it would be essentially useless until all the pieces were ready to work together? (CQ 748) As said above, it took billions of years for an organism to evolve to reach its complexity stage. Surely in the beginning phases the eyes wasn’t to its fullest form that we see today. It could have been the simplest sensory organ. Steve Edinger, from the department of biological sciences in Ohio University, explains that intelligence design is nothing more than an argument against evolutionists. Neither there is any test for its hypotheses, nor there is any data or observation for its theory. The

that there is no missing link. The intelligent design that we posses and see today is nothing more than a fascinating theory of evolution.
