The Bible says, “In the beginning God created the heavens
and the earth.” This creating must therefore include everything in the heavens
and the earth. The ultimate creature that God made is the human being.
Contrary to this, the evolutionist says that over billions
of years the human being was derived from ever complicating living things
beginning with a single cell. So let’s look at this derivation of life from
complex back to the simple.
Man came from Homo, Paranthropus, Australopithicus, and
Ardipithicus groups. These in turn presumably came from the apes and monkeys.
From whence came the apes and monkeys gets a little confusing. The general term
for their supposed ancestors is Proto-Primates which were similar to squirrels
and lemurs.
The previous group was possibly smaller rodents, who came
from the anagalids in China. They are extinct, but a Gliriform tooth was found
that may have been from one of them. Paleontologists can surmise a lot of
information from a single tooth or a bone fragment.
Or the previous group could have been the Mimotonids. Jaw and teeth samples
of this were found in Mongolia. This is getting more confusing, but somehow all
the animals came from the first ones, the comb jelly and the sponge. How these
huge changes occurred over the millennia is a mystery that nobody can answer,
mainly because it is logically impossible.
Of
course the animals must have come from plants or bacteria or amoeba or who
knows what. And animals need oxygen and many other elements simply to survive.
So where did the elements come from? Did they all evolve from Hydrogen? It’s
not likely!
In
short, God created all of the elements in the beginning, along with everything
else. And He made all of the animals after their kind – the equivalent of the
family in modern terminology. He made
the rodents and apes and sponges as separate entities, and created man after
His own image and “breathed in man the breath of life, and man became a living
soul.”
