Creation and Evolution in Unification
The problem we have in teaching creation and evolution is we treat them as two distinct schools of thoughts very contradictory with each other. And so we are suffering the consequences of having trouble because we failed to view them as one single unified school of thought.
We are human beings and are given the intellect to understand the works of God. For example, the letter "V" is not "W" but we can have the letter "W" by simply writing the letter "V" twice.
In the teaching of evolution we must not forget to integrate the "creation's point of view." For example, evolution says that we descended from the primates, but have we ever seen a present day primate turns into human being? Did we? But we can conclude that from the "design" of the primate, God might have copied the same, did a little modifications on it and created the Australopithecus. Then, copied the same design, modified it, created another, and so on.
In my own understanding, creation and evolution must be taught in a unified approach because they are the same schools of thought viewed like the two sides of a "single coin."
