This document discusses and compares theories of creationism and evolutionism. It describes biblical creationism as the belief that God directly created the physical universe and all life. It then outlines several non-literal views of creationism such as the gap theory, long day theory, progressive creationism, and theistic evolution. The document also discusses theories of evolution like Lamarck's theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics, Darwin's theory of natural selection and descent with modification, and De Vries' theory of evolution by mutation.

organism into another kind of
organism over many generations
PROGRESSIVE CREATIONISM AND THEISTIC EVOLUTION
8. Evolutionism: is the belief that the physical universe and life were not created ,but
happened by natural processes
EVOLUTIONISM
9. LAMARCK”S THEORY: INHERITANCE AQUIRED OF CHARACTERISTICS
DARWIN”S THEORY: NATURAL SELECTION AND DESCENT WITH MODIFICATION
DE VRIE”S THEORY: EVOLUTION BY MUTATION
THEORIES OF EVOLUTION
10. LAMARCK”S THEORY: INHERITANCE
OF ACQUIRED CHARACTERISTIC
LAMARK SAID THAT If an
organism changes during life in
order to adapt to its
environment, those changes are
passed on to its offspring.
DARWINS THEORY: NATURAL SELECTION
AND DESCENT WITH MODIFICATION
it states that evolutionary
change comes through the
production of variation in each
generation and differential
survival of individuals with
different combinations of these
variable characters.
LAMARCK”S THEORY AND DARWIN”S THEORY
11. According to him, new species are not formed by continuous
variations but by sudden appearance of variations, which he
named as mutations. Hugo de Vries stated that mutations are
heritable and persist in successive generations.
