Creationism_Vs_Evolution

Creationism Vs Evolution Philosophy, as defined by the American Heritage Dictionary (2001), is the “investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods” (p.633). In other words, it is logical thought process instead of experimentation. Philosophy can be broken down into many categories, so I narrowed down to two: theology, and evolution. Theology, as defined by the American Heritage Dictionary (2001), is “the study of the nature of God and religious truth” (p.848). Theologists believe that God created the universe, the stars, the planets, and the people that occupy them. God has created a special place called heaven; where good people go that believe in him. Along with this special place, he created hell. Hell is a place where bad people go, as well as those that do not believe in him. Blaise Pascal was a French mathematician, physicist, and religious philosopher who created the Pascal Wager to prove that there was a God. He did not use any experiments to prove the existence of God, but rather, he used his self-interest in God as his guide.
