  Many religious people rejected the theory of evolution because the theory was seen as conflicting with their holy books. For example, in Christianity, it is stated that every living thing on earth is created by God as it is today. Of course, this is in stark contrast to Darwin’s theory. In Darwin’s theory, every creature has gone through a long process of evolution since the first organism existed on earth. This makes it almost impossible for religious people to accept this theory.

  I think it’s possible to believe in both religion and evolution because the two of it carried facts but as for Darwin it is just a theory. That’s all.

  I think so many religious people rejected the theory of evolution because it conflicts with their views of creation. No, it is not possible to believe in both religion and evolution because if you believe in evolution, means you don’t believe in God. In religion, mankind is a descendant from Adam and Eve, whereas in evolution theory, mankind evolved from apes. Moreover, evolution theory is just a theory which cannot be proven by facts.

  I think religious person rejected the theory of evolution because it would say that they do not believe in a God by accepting the theory. I don’t think it’s possible to believe in both religion and evolution because it seemed to go against religious teachings that God made the Earth and created all living things.

  In my opinion,some religious people reject to accept the theory of evolution because they think it will make people don’t believe the existence of the God any more.To be honest,they really don’t need to worry about it,many famous scientist are religious people at same time they think the theory of evolution is right.Science and Religon is not compeletely contrary.

• Mary Rose Pelerio says:
  

  Religious people denied the theory of evolution because they only believe what the Bible says.
  In my opinion, it is possible to believe in both religion and evolution as long as these two beliefs can provide facts and evidence that would solidify their claims.

  I’m a religious person, however I believe that things can change with time, so it is hard to pick or accept on theory only. I think religion is based on faith.
