| − | '''Doctrine of Creation''' is a pilliar of all the [[Abrahamic faith]]s. In Christianity Romans 1:25 emphasizes the need to serve the [[God|Creator]] and not the created things, keeping the two separate. [[Saint Paul]]'s caution in Romans 1:25 and in the slightly earlier Romans 1:22-23 tells us that it is a sin to serve the created things instead of the [[God|Creator]]. In their writings both [[Augustine]] and [[Calvin]] emphasized such a separation. Calvin argued against a monastic renunciation of the world, believing that ''contempt of the world'' (as argued by some Christian monks of his time) to be an incorrect interpretation of these Cautions.<ref> ''Christian Theology: An Introduction'', Alister E.
