Creationism and evolutionism are two conflicting theories that seek to respond to the emergence of species. According to Creationist Theory, species were created by God. For Evolutionary Theory, species evolve with each generation, adapting to the environment in which they live.
The approach to this subject in school education to date is a delicate subject, but in the past, Creationism was the dominant theory. At the beginning of the last century there was a case that became famous in US history. The Judgment of Scopes.
There was a Law in the state of the Tennenssee called Butler Law that forbade any teaching in schools that would deny creationism. A professor named John Scopes was indicted and convicted for teaching evolution in a school.
From this case, the approach of teaching began to be discussed. Almost 50 years after Scope's trial, Butle's law was repealed. Currently the teaching of evolutionism is the dominant approach in school grades, but the conflict between creationism and evolutionism to this day can affect people's heads, especially religious people, since theories are conflicting, there is not much room to believe in both together.
