Theories of Creation and Evolution

Our goal in Social Studies 9 is NOT to debate or decide which of these two theories is correct but instead to gather information on each. As Christian thinkers we must learn to speak with intellectual authority on a variety of subjects that challenge our faith and beliefs. Therefore during this next mini-unit on the Origins of Humans I encourage you to come with an open and questioning mind.

Through a variety of tasks, video presentations, readings and assignments we will start to look at the evidence that science and theorists have gathered to support each theory. After weighing both sides will have an informed discussion about the varacity of each.

We will start with a video by the Creation Ministries International - Darwin: The Voyage that Shook the World.

 Later this week a National Geographic video Mysteries of Mankind.
