"All it can do is tear the best and brightest away from the church and alienate the rest into a persecution complex cult."

I don't believe that's true.

I have a profound 'faith' in God, but yet see no conflict between that faith and evolution, as I understand it.

I am more that willing to learn as much about evolution as possible which may even strengthen that faith.

I don't believe faith and evolution are exclusionary of each other.

I agree completely with your post #280...I really do not understand why people think that evolution and belief in God cannot coexist within the same person...

I am like you, I strongly belief in God, and also belief in evolution...It does not bother me that some who believe in evolution do not believe in a God...why should it and what difference does it make? What does bother me, is when someone comes along with their brand of Christianity, and tells me that its impossible for me to believe in both evolution and God...and that has happened to me, on a number of occasions...

Belief in God, and belief in evolution can and does coexist..
