NATIVE AMERICAN CREATION STORIES
I believe the world was created by God or by meteoroids that created the world and life. I know this information because it’s in the books a science a hypothesis how life started. I think that the first people came from evolution they evolved from through the years that passed they have the figure/form they have now. I think that it does matter how the world was created because people know they key of life. Also to scientists to know how life started and be able to cure diseases and help people.
The Cherokee tribe believed that the world already existed that it was an island that was hold by four cords. In the story of this tribe that believed that the people were created at last the plants, animals, and sun were created first. The Salish tribe believed that the world was already created but only Gods lived on it. This tribe believes that the humans were created by the Gods from balls of mud a God took from the Earth. The Zuni tribe myth says that the earth was already created and that the Zuni came to the world to live on it. They believed that the Zuni came into the world with webbed feet, long ears, hairless tails, and moss-covered bodies and that they acquire human form after bathing in the waters of a sacred spring.
In all of these stories that I read the Earth already existed but only Gods lived there or in another stories there were animals and plants but no human people. Some of these stories don’t have sense that they exist. They could have been true or they could not be true. It all depends on the person who is reading the stories and if they believe it is true. The stories don’t tell that the people believed in anything. It does not say if they believed in Gods or in a supreme power. The stories tell that the world was already created that Gods, animals, and plants lived in Earth and that humans to the Earth and change with the past of the years or they were created by the Gods. There is no way to know if this myths or stories are true. There is no evidence to probe these stories were true and for that science cannot prove if facts are true. If there was evidence that this stories were true like buildings or some kind of fossil then science could do certain experiments to see how old they are and from there prove that these stories were in fact true. I think that my view of how the world was created has more sense than the stories of the Natives Americans. Science has theories of how Earth was created and there have been many opinions of this. Science explains that humans had various phases of evolution with all the animals that today exist and that how they got the shape they have know. There is also another theory that the church follows that is that a superior power created the Earth. Many of the followers of the church defend this belief while other support science. I all depend on the person to choose how they think earth was created and humans were created to.
