Let’s take a closer look at each of these issues. First, creationists DO NOT object to descent with modification, natural selection, mutations and so forth. In fact, these are essential to the creation model and are scientific facts and observations. The disagreement lies in interpreting these changes or modifications as being responsible for all of the diversity of life we see today evolving from a common ancestor over billions of years. Creationists believe that the ability of creatures to adapt to their environment is a design feature built into the original created kinds which have diversified within their kinds over the last 4500 to 6000 years. Therefore, it is not change, but the type of change which is in dispute and both statements in the current explanation of the Biological Evolution forum are true from the creationist’s perspective.
