Evolution vs. Creation

Evolution is a theory that is used to describe the advancement in the DNA of species in the world. Over time it is told that a simple ancestor has evolved over time to a more complex species. This evolution is done to help a species survive better. Like species evolving to get wings and learning to fly. This advantage makes them superior to other animals in this way. This helps them survive better and the species that did not evolve will soon die out due to natural selection.
Creation is the theory of a higher power creating all life on earth. This is a religious belief that is acknowledged by many religions. This belief shows that every living thing is a direct creation from a higher power (God). Then after there was a global floods that shaped the earth. As science started to effect the belief of many believers, you start to see a change in the religion. The oldest belief of creation, believes that the world is 10,000 years old but then after science gave the earth an official age, believers of creationism adopted that as the official date.
I believe in creationism. For many reason but main one is that I grew up learning and practicing the religion, Roman Catholic. After sometime pass I start to realize that this is what I believe. I think that what you do in this life will decide what happens to you in the afterlife. I rather not believe that when you die nothing happens.
