| creation is the act of bringing into being. | Every religion, culture, nation and background has a way
of explaining how life began, usually based around a religion. Today,
over 95 percent of the world’s population believe in a creator.
Over one hundred and fifty years have passed since the theory of evolution was bought to the attention of the world - before that, and for many today, all we had to explain how we arrived at this point in time was a story - a creation story. Creation stories are as old as human civilisation and have been the
basis for law and lifestyle, but why are they still so important today
when science claims to have all the answers? Maybe it’s because we
still trust our hearts and the traditions of our ancestors, or maybe it’s
because science just can’t explain everything. Please, decide for
yourself.
Here are a collection of stories and myths which, if we share, can give a deeper insight into other cultures: |
| Ancient Chinese: The story of Pangu
A Myth of one of the Australian Aboriginal Peoples: Creation of the sun. American Cherokee Indians: Myth explaining the creation of the world. Christian/Jewish: Book of Genesis, explaining how God created the world. |
