OBJECTIVE: to carry out an objective and impartial analysis of the two positions defined in the course of history, which has given rise to debates and disputes, with the intention that the use of reason, discernment, analysis and philosophical reflection prevail. METHOD: the descriptive and hermeneutic methodology was used, highlighting the ideas, criteria, thoughts and commenting on opinions established by various ancient, modern and contemporary thinkers and philosophers. RESULTS: It has been possible to establish that the two theories mentioned about the origin of existence continue to be the subject of discussion and debate, since the scientific world does not accept the creationist theory and the religious world does not accept evolution either, and in these positions we human beings find ourselves. at a crossroads because according to beliefs, traditions, religion and study we have the need to prefer one of them. CONCLUSION: Although the two positions or theories about the origin of existence have been debating for many years, trying to reconcile them has become an almost impossible mission. In this frivolous and materialistic world in which we live, it seems that the new generations are not attracted to debate, that added to the superficial and indifferent attitude shown by the majority, sadly indicates that they are not interested in discussing or inquiring about the cause of our existential origin.
