Has Modern Science Discredited the Biblical Theory of Divine Creation?
             Divine Creation is the understanding that the, "physical universe as a whole had a beginning a finite time ago as a result of an act of creation out of nothing by a single, conscious external cause or agent. And that external cause or creator is then claimed to be the personal God of the biblical theistic tradition" (Grunbaum). The essential power functioning in creation science is a supernatural being, "which is a polite term for magic." When natural forces are being monitored it becomes a science, and science does not try to justify phenomenal occurrence by means of supernatural forces (Zindler).
             Creationism attempts to preserve the book of Genesis, which details the sudden creation of all life forms on Earth a few thousand years ago. Genesis explains that all humans are created from one man, Adam and one woman, Eve. It also "claims that all but one boat-load of the living things on this planet perished in a world-wide flood in the year 2,348 B.C.E (Before the Common Era)." Creationist attack any theory or scientific evidence that exposes the mythological tendencies seen throughout Genesis (Zindler).
             The question I am faced with is, "Has modern science discredited the biblical theory of divine creation?" There are infinite scientific theories and discoveries I could note to back my stand that divine creation is merely a myth created to aid in early human's inability to understand chemistry, biology, physics, and more. We are bombarded with the Big Bang Theory, the Gap Theory, Darwin's Theory of Evolution, and the list could go on and on. I will focus on the basic theory of evolution in my attempt to discredit divine creation.
             Evolution is defined as, "the theory, now generally accepted, that all species of plants and animals developed from earlier forms by hereditary transmission of slight...
