Evolution, Creationism, non or both ?
AussieJTFer:
It is hard to argue against evolution given all the biological and paleontological evidence. That is not to say that G-d did not create the universe however.

Wait a minute. I'm a global moderator! I've added my choice to the poll. ;D

Yepp it makes sense. My Rabbi also said that as the generations go all fruits, foods, etc. loose their value and taste. The older generation enjoyed better produce then we do today, and also fruits were much bigger say 2,000 years ago then today. For example the Olive (I believe it was said to be the size of todays egg).

Why should we be so inquisitive about the way Hashem created the world? Perhaps through guided evolution, perhaps He made everything as it is now. But why do we need to know? Will it make us better persons? Scientists spend a lot of time investigationg the origin of life, the origin of galaxies, the origin of everything..... But noone cares to explain how a clever and sophisticated civilization has the power to make a wonderfull technology, but is still unable to overcome Ietzer Hara

We should be inquisitive about everything in the natural world, including origins. This helps us to better understand the universe we live in.

Yes and it also helps us to better understand and come closer to G-d as we can learn more of the Creator through His creations in the same way one can get to know an artist through his works of art even in you never met him.
Realizing how G-d created the world helps us see His hand and everything and this helps a person in the service of G-d.
