****You’re playing with words here. A real theologian could give us the correct terms. Christian churches have always taught that nature is God’s creation and can be investigated & understood by mankind. There is no ancient dichotomy between them, at least that I know of.****

Jesus Christ verified the Creation Account as historically accurate (Mark 10:6), He also verified the creation of Adam and Eve (Matthew 19:4-5).

Any Church that teaches “theistic evolution” or anything else that disagrees with those two passages is calling Jesus Christ a liar and should be considered as aberrant theologies within the “Christian” umbrella.

They are placing the worldview (again I say it is a worldview and not proveable by the scientific method) of the scientific community and placing it above the very words of the Son of God.

I’d call that aberrant.

from 1,640 schaef21: "Any Church that teaches “theistic evolution” or anything else that disagrees with those two passages is calling Jesus Christ a liar and should be considered as aberrant theologies within the “Christian” umbrella."

Of course, you are entitled to your religious beliefs, even if they are contrary to the teachings of the vast majority of Christian denominations, which they certainly are.

Indeed, I would hazard to guess that only a small minority -- maybe 5% of Christian churches -- would accept your formulation as you have here expressed it.

But, you are not entitled, for purposes of public discussion and law making, to pretend that your religious beliefs are in any sense scientific!
