> Evolution and Christianity are perfectly compatible.

Really?

Most evolutionists don’t believe so. But don’t take my word for it. You can read it in their own words.

I was an atheistic evolutionist before I was a Christian. I tried to believe that evolutionism was compatible with Christianity, but in my heart I knew that couldn’t be, because of what I had learned.

Look, I know we’re all busy, and don’t have a lot of time. Neither do we like to be rocked out of our comfort zones.

But if and when you have any time to just read some opposing points of view for information sake, try these articles. See what you think. They may not change your mind, but they at least offer food for thought.

Spare me the melodrama. Adhering to literal inerrancy is a crutch that some Christians of weak faith require. Without it, their faith would be gone. I prefer to please God by using the brain that he gave me to ascertain his actual method.

And then you post links to a creation rationalization site in an effort to sway my opinion? Thank God real science is taught in public school.

Welcome to the modern discourse on science. Someone posts a (religiously motivated) scientific discussion of an aspect of science that touches on evolution. That discussion attempts to deal with the science of the matter.

The evolutionists show up and discuss religion. I’m beginning to think the point isn’t so much to refute the claims as it is to ensure that no discussion of the problems of evolution takes place without dragging religion into it, to keep up the fiction that they only reason anybody doesn’t believe in evolution is their religious convictions, and that there are only religious arguments to be made.

“Evolution and Christianity are perfectly compatible.”

I asked how they were “a perfect fit” and Buck W. explained it was like heart surgery and strawberry farming, “a perfect fit”!

If that’s not crystal clear you’ll have to ask him about it.

Heart surgery and strawberry farming......amazing.
