About Me

www.evolutie-creationisme.be is a site created by Gwenny Cooman and devoted to the evolution - creationism controversy. It is a Dutch site, but all blog entry's on this myspace are in English (entry's before June 2007 are still in Dutch).

Wetenschap en religieuze overtuigingen, of nog, evolutietheorie en creationisme.

Er heerst een hardnekkige controverse tussen zij die in een schepping van de wereld door een God geloven, en zij die de wereld verklaren aan de hand van wetenschap (evolutietheorie). In de Verenigde Staten is de discussie tussen beide al lang bezig. We merken dat de discussie ook hier in Europa oplaait.

We geven op deze opiniesite een toelichting over beide begrippen ( creationisme en de evolutietheorie ). De meeste informatie baseert zich op de toestand in de VS. De toenemende media-aandacht en belangstelling die creationisme hier in Europa geniet, spoorde me aan een site aan het onderwerp te wijden. De site bevat heel wat informatie en feiten over het evolutie versus creationisme debat.
Actuele informatie over evolutie en creationisme in de media, in kunst, in cultuur, in tentoonstellingen en in de literatuur vindt u voortaan op deze blogsite !
