Four questions the creation story in genesis answers better than the current teachings on evolution:
1. How come no other species has evolved to an advanced intelligence stage? The Bible's answer, is that God placed man over all other creatures. If another species were equal to man, man wouldn't have dominion over them. Says Genesis 1:28: "And, God said . . . have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
2. Since the inception of the homo sapien, why has not any other species branched off looking different than man, having a little bit of a different form? The thinking among evolutionists, is that there has not been enough time. I like the answer in Genesis better. It says God created man to look like Him. So, if man looked like something else, this wouldn't be so. Genesis 1:27 says, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he he him."
3. Why are there only two sexes? It doesn't matter the species, and it doesn't matter if it is animal life or plant life, in those cases where there is sexual reproduction, it involves a male and a female, just the two sexes. Genesis 1:27 says, "Male and female created he them."
4. How come we can't trace back, just in recorded history, changes in the lion, or the bear, or the fox, or the goose? Actually, I confess, I do not know this for certain, and I should verify it. Still, the answer might be in Genesis 1:24. "And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so." Whether evolution took place leading up to the current life forms, what I am interested in is what is happening to the current life forms. Are they changing? If they are, this scripture still applies, but it has better application if the life forms are not changing.
