This is a belief which was invented to explain why we are all here.  Basically it states that the world was created by some greater being (God).  But then who created God?  The theory of Creationsim falls flat through stating the Earth is thousands of years old, despite the fact it was proved to be billions of years old through scientific research.  Creationists mock the theory of evolution and condemn the teaching of evolution at school.  Evolution seems like the most sensible theory to me.  Ah, but then howcome there are so many gaps in the evolutionary pathway?  For one thing, it is a real fluke that an animal survives in fossil form, a billion-to-one chance requiring exactly the right geological conditions.  Yes, we have a lot of skeletons in museums, but they are nothing when you consider how many animals have existed over the history of time.  For another thing, it has been suggested that evolution takes place in jumps rather than gradually (a new, more evolved species suddenly starts appearing, gradualy takes over the older species).  As for the teaching of evolution at school, it is taught as a theory.  You don't have to believe in it.  On the other hand, teaching Creationism at school involves indoctrinating children.  I still remember being told that "God is always watching us and can punish us if we act or think wrongly".  It makes me laugh when certain Creationists complain about CCTV cameras everywhere or the government spying on us all.  Beliefs like Creationism were the Big Brother and the CCTV cameras of their day, were used to control the working classes.  Now George W Bush is talking about teaching Creationism in schools in the USA instead of evolution.  I can't help feeling all he really wants to do is create a brainwashed army to fight a religious war against Muslims.
