To whom it may concern,

Now that we understand, that my question on Creation was not about Creationism, but of point of origin.

Question: Was my question, about which came first, “Creation or Evolution”, scientific?

Sincerely,

Guadalupe Guerra, Jr.

Reading your question above, I feel that the only simply and direct answer came from Kainaw. He stated that something must be created before it can evolve. Is your question scientific? I went to Science and it states that science is a system of aquiring knowledge. Is your question part of a system of aquiring knowledge? Funny, I just answered that above. Please post a question just once (see rules above). DirkvdM 09:33, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Ok. Which ever came first will not make a diffrence. Flat earth came first, before round earth. Newtonian Physics before Einstienian, and Greek atomic model before Bohr. And now onto the epistomonological question: Creation dates to the earliest writings of the old testment, Which dates to about the time of Moses, but this is subject to controversy. P.J. Wiseman has a theory that Moses didnt write Genesis but rather translated them from cunieform script, which would have been written from eyewitnesses. ( Yea right. Anyone around for the creation of the universe, plese comment on my talk page ) Evloutionary theory was first published on October 24, 1859 The_Origin_of_Species, althoght some argue that he was merely collecting the scientific evidence for a idea floating around in british intellectual circles, while the french were busy making wine. Note: Genesis is a Jewish/Christial religious text based upon faith. Darwins book is a Scientific theory. Both are subject to intrepretation. Both are based in the far past. Both the authors are dead. Is it possible that both were only observations of the same phenomon, or that neither one is the best lie to explain the facts? Artoftransformation 12:35, 25 December 2005 (UTC)-- If the question is about time scales and processes, then sure, it can be a scientific question. That is to say, if I had a real sure sense about what you were asking, it might be possible to tailor it in a scientific way (i.e., "Did biological evolution happen only after matter existed?" is surely answerable as "yes". However asking "Do the underlying principles of biological evolution rely on matter existing?" might be "no", depending on what one views a "principle" to be, though whether this would be "scientific" or "philosophical" depends on how much of a border one sees between the two approaches). --Fastfission 17:03, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
