Finally some common sense. Evolution and religion are not mutually exclusive. God’s great plan is evident all around us.

That’s what Yul Brynner said in “The King and I.” It’s kind of dualistic thinking. Something can’t be true over here and false over there.

To believe the basic doctrines of evolution, one must deny the literal interpretation of Genesis chapter one. You can’t have it both ways.

I could never understand why some want to limit God’s power by forcing Him into human like creation processes. The fact that God set all the necessary conditions for the universe and life in the first Planck second makes Him all the more aw awesome.

No. Evolution and religion are synonymous. God’s great plan is found in Scripture and is neither common nor according to man’s sense.

Evolution and religion are not mutually exclusive...

Evolution and any sort of decent religion are totally incompatible. Aside from the fact of evolution being junk science, there's still the little problem of the corollary doctrines (communism, naziism etc.) and the 200,000,000 dead bodies lying around on account of them

"If somebody believes that Jesus, the cosmic janitor, is going to return on a cloud and clean up the mess we made, they're more likely to have a less responsible way of thinking about the future and handing on a healthy, sustainable world," Dowd said.

He's just another version of Blavatsky and other synchretists, and as silly.

Evolution and the Bible are mutually exclusive however. Evolution and science are also mutually exclusive. (you cannot prove or even theorize how something comes from nothing, order arises out of chaos, or life, intelligence, personality, and morality arise from dirt.

If you are a Christian, you cannot do away with creation without doing away with the entire reason Christ came - to redeem us from death, which is the wages of sin and which was not in the world until sin entered the world.

Evolution is anything but common sense. The passage of time doesn't make any of these impossibilities more possible. It's just as impossible one moment as it is the next moment.
