Creationism vs Darwinism

charles darwin

Gavin Esler talks to a leading member of the Creationist movement about his views on evolution and why he believes Charles Darwin's theories are wrong.

Creationism is the belief that God created man as outlined in the Bible.

However, mainstream scientists regard the world as four billion years old and view Creationism as unscientific nonsense or, more politely, as a quaint expression of fundamentalist religious faith.

So why is there renewed interest in a theory swept aside by Darwin 150 years ago?

HARDtalk can be seen on BBC World at 0330 GMT 0830 GMT 1030 GMT 1430 GMT 1830 GMT 2330 GMT

It can also be seen on BBC News 24 at 0430 and 2330
