The pursuit on who created the earth after the publication of Charles Darwin book Origin of Species raised numerous questions on who brought the world into existence. Evolutionists believe that the earth created itself and a non existence of a creator and creationism advocates believing in an inclusive creatorship that God is the creator of the universe. The synopsis will give an account of a critique of evolution against creationism. Dodson (1960:3) in his book Evolution Process and Product, he incorporated Darwin’s definition of evolution; “the descent with modification, closely related species resembling one other because of their common inheritance, and differing from one other because of the hereditary differences accumulated since the…show more content… To account this, he devised an elaborate theory which is summarised by Dodson in four propositions which are; living organism and their component parts tend continually to increase in size; production of a new organ results from a new need and from the new movement which this need starts and maintains; if an organ is used constantly, it will tend to become highly developed, whereas disuse results in degeneration; and the modifications produced by the above principles during the lifetime of an individual will be inherited by its offspring, with the result that changes are cumulative over a period of time. Lamarck first published his theory in 1802, and he defended it vigorously until his death. He suffered both social and scientific ostracism, but he had the courage of his convictions (Dodson, 1960: 76). However, Lamarck’s theory was proven false by a German evolutionist, August Weissman who made an experiment with mice. He cut off the tails of newly born mice however, the mice continued to be born with…show more content… In six days the Lord made the heaven and the earth and all living things upon the earth, and rested on the seventh day of that first week. Thus He established the Sabbath as a perpetual memorial of His completed creative work. The first man and women were first in the image of God as the crowning work of creation given dominion over the world charged with responsibility to care for it.
