🦋 Creation or Evolution?

Creation or Evolution is a controversial topic.

Was man created òr did man come about by evolution?

What did man evolve from and please explain the various  stages of the evolution of man.

How did the solar system and the Universe come about?

What is the Big Bang Theory? How does the father and son story below affect your belief about this theory?

This is a post that can generate a lot of discussion. Before we start our discussion  in the comments, I want to tell you a story about a  nuclear physicist and his son.

The physicist was familiar with atomic structure and study things like protons, electrons, neutrons, positions.

His son was fascinated by the solar system and enjoy reading anything about the solar system.

One day when the physicist came home, he saw a wonderful  3D model of the solar system. The planets of the model were not on a single plane but on different planes. Even more fascinating was that the plants could be moved in orbits. 

The physicist was stunned by the complicated movable model.

The son remarked that the model has similarities  with electrons moving around the nucleas of atoms.

The father asked his son how he made the model. The son said that put sand and dust into a glass container. I also used a fan to blow on the glass container. Then I  took a hammer and bang the container so that it broke. The wind from the fan blew on the sand and dust which arranged themselves  to form the model. 

The father scolded his son, "Don't  be ridiculous. You must have made the model. How did you make the planets stay up in the air. How did you make them move in orbits?"

The son said,"I did not make the model. I don't understand how the sand and dust arranged themselves. I do not understand how the planets of the model can move in orbits with different  planes"

The son asked the father, "How do electrons move around the nucleas of atoms? How did the real solar system come about? Perhaps that will help to explain how the model we have here  came into being"

What do you think of the story? Was the son telling the truth or does the son possess magic to make the planets of his model orbit around the sun?

The physics laws that give atoms their shape apply to the solar system.  The solar system  is like a giant atom.

Perhaps one day with more scientific knowledge, we will find out that the solar system is an "atom" in a huge sysyem that contains many universes. That system will also obey the same physics laws.

Going the opposite direction we may find systems  obeying the physics laws make up atoms. Minute particles like neutrino that is so small that scientists say they have no mass.

Is there a God whose laws apply to everything?

Ha ha. I am looking forward to see a lot of comments that answer all the questions in the above post.😲😳👏👏

PS - Darwin's theory of evolution is taught as the way man came into being. Those who go against this theory are strongly condemned for believing in conspiracy theories.
