Creation, Then Evolution


 

Look at a thesaurus - define your terms, get on common ground.

Creation - unrolling a scroll, the beginning, to start, conception

Evolution - pregnancy, development, growth, life

 

The Bible - God is spiritual. The Bible is about spiritual matters.

Science - Science is physical. Science is basically about physical properties.

History - We can speculate and debate about that!

 

I believe

          THAT

CREATION happened. CREATION is like conceiving a baby. This is the beginning.

          THEN

EVOLUTION continually happens, like the development of a fetus during pregnancy.

          THEN

TRANSFORMATION occurs, such as the birth of a baby.

          THEN

LIFE is shared day by day. Growth, production, reproduction… more EVOLUTION

          THEN

DEATH.

          THEN

After that, I do not know.

I do know about apple seeds, apples and apple trees.

From that concept, a sperm is a seed. Children and grandchildren are the apples of the

family tree. An old apple falls off the tree and decomposes, dies. New apples continue

to populate the apple tree, earth.

 

I believe in both creation and evolution.  I believe in imagination, manifestation and development. I believe in starting something, developing it, and finishing it. I believe in conception, pregnancy, birth, life and death.

I believe that an apple seed can germinate, sprout, grow, become a plant, then become a tree, then bear fruit, produce, evolve and make apples. The apple tree grows and may produce fruit. It matures and eventually dies. There are numerous outcomes for that tree that was once just a tiny seed.

Apples grow to maturity, ripen, drop from the tree, and eventually get rotten. A whole apple laying on the ground is still alive. An apple can be stored for months, shipped, put up for sale in a grocery store, get bought, sit on your counter, until that apple is consumed. 

What a life! From creation to evolution to consumption, the story of an apple.

Creation and evolution is beyond my comprehension. To satisfy my inner thoughts, this is what I currently believe.  What is marvelous is L.I.F.E.   Creation is like conception.  Evolution is like pregnancy. They go hand in hand. Conception is physical. Pregnancy is mystical, spiritual and fascinating.
