Charles Darwin put forward the theory of Evolution
Evolution:
Life started with single-celled creatures in the sea
Over a long period of time they evolved into creatures capable of living on land
Next came creatures with the ability to fly
2.5 million years ago creatures resembling humans formed
Gradually changed into humans 200,000 years ago
Genes passed on from their parents have resulted in different individuals from the same species, some of which found it easier to survive and breed successfully
Survival of the fittest is when animals are able to adapt to their surroundings and thrive
Some Christians and Muslims are creationists
they believe the origin of human life is exactly as it's written in the scriptures
