The conflict between science and religion existed long before the publication of Charles Darwin's book, On the Origin of Species (“The Evolution, Creationism, and Intelligent Design Controversy”). Which is a book considered the foundation of evolutionary biology, presenting the idea of ​​"natural selection". Some people believe that we humans evolved as the most intelligent and advanced species on the planet, while others think that we were placed here and designed for a reason. Many debates and court cases have arisen because of these two ideas of science versus religion. Although there is much debate between the two, the ideas are reversed when the parties neglect the distinction between that which cannot be proven (faith), versus that which has not been proven (theory) (Lipman, Robert M.). Theories, including evolution, can and should be studied with adequate scientific diligence (Lipman, Robert M.). One side of these debates is creationism, the theory that God created man when he created the universe. The second side is Evolution, or the theory created by scientists to explain the origin of species. Since both theories cannot be proven right or wrong, one must decide between religion or science. Creationism is the literal meaning of the Bible. This idea is supported mainly by religions. It is the idea that God created the universe in just six days (“Creationism”). Information supporting creationism comes from the Bible. However, the Bible is not a scientific book, but some consider it to be scientifically correct. In the first book of Genesis, information is given about the creation of the universe and how physical events occurred. While in the second book of Genesis information on the creation of man and other details are reported. “No experiments show that one species transforms into another through the production of new useful DNA, but only through modifications of existing DNA” (Lipman, Robert M.). Furthermore, the idea of ​​creationism threatens the idea of ​​church and state. Evolution, on the other hand, is a theory that is strictly based on the scientific evidence and ideas that have been found in the universe. Like fossils or the “evolution” of DNA. “The process of evolution produces a pattern of relationships between species. As lineages evolve and divide and changes are inherited, their evolutionary paths diverge,” (“The Family Tree”).
