This paper investigates the irreconcilable differences between evolutionary and creationist paradigms. The paper begins by describing the evolutionary paradigm and the creationist paradigm separately. It then contrasts the two views and discusses their differences. The paper concludes by suggesting that the ultimate argument between these two perspectives is a contest of faith versus fact.
From the Paper:
"Creationism is a philosophical perspective that intends to keep specific social systems and conventions alive. However, Creationist beliefs display a blatant disregard for acknowledged scientific premises. Their ultimate argument is a contest of faith versus fact, and because of their refusal to incorporate credible evidence into their theories they can not destabilize the normal science of evolution. Even though the prevalence of Christian, Judaic, and Muslim religions might lend some credence to Creationist claims (given that all holy texts confirm the existence of a divine creator), the modern world is driven by evidence, details, and specifics. Their paradigm continues to influence people with unbreakable conviction in fundamental scriptural laws, but the scientific world remains unshaken."
