Evolution speaks of the gradual development of man. Whatever else is conveyed by this term, it clearly excludes the evolutionary idea of God setting in motion a long process of self-development. Evolution teaches that man is progressing and has been since the first man. Scripture emphasizes that man was created perfect and that he subsequently fell to his present condition. Evolution speaks of progression.
Evolutionists speak of evolution as still occurring.
Evolution posits savage struggle for survival. Evolution emphasizes the common relation of all living things. The two ideas simply cannot stand together. It would be difficult to imagine two more contrary ideas. As stated at the outset, it is the purpose of this paper simply to show the mutual exclusiveness of evolution and the Biblical account of creation.
