Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

According to the scientific Big Bang theory, approximately how old is the universe?

  1. 100 billion years old
  2. 6,000 years old
  3. 4.6 billion years old
  4. 13.8 billion years old
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: D13.8 billion years old
Scientists estimate the universe is approximately 13.8 billion years old, based on measurements of cosmic microwave background radiation and the expansion rate of the universe. 4.6 billion years is the age of Earth, not the universe. 6,000 years reflects a Young Earth Creationist reading of Genesis genealogies, not the scientific consensus. 100 billion years significantly exceeds current scientific estimates.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which of the following best describes the Christian belief about creation as described in Genesis 1?

  1. God created the universe over six days and rested on the seventh day
  2. God created the universe through a process of natural selection over millions of years
  3. God created the universe in a single moment through the Big Bang
  4. God created humans first, then created the rest of the universe for them
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: AGod created the universe over six days and rested on the seventh day
Award 1 mark for identifying that Genesis 1 describes creation over six days with God resting on the seventh. B is incorrect because natural selection is Darwin's scientific theory, not the Genesis account. C incorrectly combines the Big Bang theory with Genesis. D is incorrect because Genesis 1 shows humans were created last, on the sixth day, after plants and animals.
