"Among Collins’s most controversial beliefs is that of “theistic evolution”, which claims natural selection is the tool that God chose to create man."
If God had used evolution as a tool, would that be explained in the Bible? Obviously, it is not. My Pastor insists that because the Bible does not say that God used evolution as a "tool," that proves he did not. To me, that makes no sense. The Bible was not written only for people who've read Darwin. It was both unnecessary and impossible for God to explain the theory of evolution in the Bible. I think that the laguage of Genesis is about the best way God could have explained the Creation, if he did in fact use evolution as his tool.
Your Pastor has some interesting opinions.
