Q: Is evolution a theory?

A: Dr. Werner Gitt addresses this topic in his introduction to the book Did God Use Evolution? Regarding today's question, Dr. Gitt says the following:
Use of the term "the theory of evolution" is intentionally avoided, because, according to the standards of scientific theory, evolution is a philosophical doctrine and not a scientific theory.
For the same reason, we do not refer to creation theory, but to the biblical doctrine of creation. Creation research concerns itself with deducing models from physical reality, which are based on fundamental biblical statements.
Read the full introduction to learn more about the negative effects of evolutionary doctrine—both inside and outside the church.
This book is the latest in our series of free online publications of printed works. The entire book will be released in sections throughout the upcoming weeks, so check back often to continue reading. (Or buy your own print copy at the link below.)
