Question: The controversy over evolution and creation has been in the news often. What is the truth about origins?

Answer: Through faith Christians "understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear" (Hebrews 11:3). Those who refuse to acknowledge God or be accountable to their Creator will not stop trying to convince themselves and others that there is an alternative explanation. Darwinism is a system of faith, and despite what the media, the government, and some scientific authorities would have us believe, none of its doctrines has ever been proven! To accept the theory of evolution is to swim against the current of endless evidences of intelligent design. The existence of the very brains that evolutionists use to defend their faith is inexplicable on the basis of any of their doctrines. The more detailed our knowledge of the human body and the universe surrounding us becomes, the more compelling the case for intelligent design will grow for those who use their common sense.
