Evolution vs Creation

Many People have argued over evolution and creationism. They refer to this argument as the "Great Debate". The only one thing both sides agree on is that the universe has not existed forever. There are two different theories to evolution and creation(the creation model of origins & the evolution model of origins). The creation model of origins is backed up by religion in which all living things have a creator, like the bible which tells of gods creation of the world in 7 days. The evolution model of origins is backed up by science or facts of science. They argue that the creation of the world and its life forms was by chance and a certain period of time having to go by in order to develop into todays human beings.

I guess I believe in both these theories. I believe in evolution because many facts have been shown proving the theory of evolution. Fossils are one example of evidence, along with different manmade tools discovered by archeologists. Still science could be wrong because we often just take a wild guess to explain something then later show evidence for it. The greatest minds in the world once thought the world was flat until a ship disappeared into the distance. I also believe in creationism because catholism is my religion believing in an afterlife is something I can't let go of. I'd want to be able to see the people I cared about again so I do still believe in God. Of course alot of things can be proven against creationism but I'm sticking to both beliefs.
