Pick an animal. For our immediate purposes, we'll use the polar bear. Did God or any other supreme being just snap his fingers, wave a magic wand, and a polar bear was instantly created? Or has the polar bear evolved from tiny organisms that have existed since the beginning of time? I don't know the answer to that question, no one does, but let's bring in the perspectives of two enormously different writers. Take Max Weber for instance, the writer of "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism." Weber is a man who builds his arguments on the church, so it's not difficult to conclude that he would argue in favor of God creating the universe and all which inhibits it. On the other side, we have Charles Darwin, writer of "Origin of Species", a scientific guru of epic proportions. To this day, no one has brought forth a stronger scientific argument surrounding creation than the great scientist. Now despite their obvious differences, one aspect in each of the two's arguments lies abundantly clear: all beings, whether man or beast, are products of their own environment.
             We'll start with Darwin's outlook, and lets go back to the polar bear. Now, one of the main themes in Darwin's book lies in the question, "How does a species survive when brought into a world of unfavorable conditions?" Blistering cold weather, ice, snowstorms, and a lack of a dependable food source are conditions that make all living organisms cringe; so let 's cruise to a place where polar bears thrive...the north pole. Somewhere around 250,000 thousand years ago, a number of brown bears became isolated by glaciers. Now instead of perishing in the ice, these bears began a rapid series of evolutionary changes which enabled them to survive. The animal now known as the polar bear adapted to the difficult conditions that were placed before it, and a new species was born.
