Evolution and Creation

Some see evolution as opposed to the teaching of the Bible underscored in Genesis 1-2. Others see it differently.

This year, February 12 marks the 200th birth anniversary of this enigmatic man, and 150th year of The Origin of Species. To many, Darwin provokes two extreme emotions which often feed each other. Either he is a notorious charlatan and the chief disciple of Lucifer out to deceive the faithfuls.
