Yep, it is amazing that God would set into motion all of these intricate processes to play out over billions of years. Billions you say! Not 6 days? I didn’t know that God was constrained by time. For that matter, I didn’t know that God had so little power that he could not make this vast universe and allow for such a concept as evolution. Why just a few hundred years ago it was mandated that we all believe that the universe revolved around earth and that the idea of manned flight was witchcraft. Is it that hard to see the work of God in the intracacies of the universe and all of creation. You are free to believe what you want and if that is in an oft rewritten and incomplete set of pre-new testament writings then you are welcome to worship the writings rather than God and his wonderous works of nature. I will applaud you but I will continue to believe in the magnitude of God’s greatness in evolution, geologic processes and the wonder of man’s God-given intellect by which he can recognize that there is a divine creator who is behind all of these wonders. You might want spend more time understanding the lessons brought to us by Christ to replace the old testament with His message of hope.

Do you believe that “God's greatness in evolution” should be taught in the classroom?

Hmmm - OK. I don't believe I said anywhere in my post that I thought the Earth was created in 6 literal days - as a matter of fact, I don't buy the literal 6 day thing. I believe God's concept of time differs radically from ours, and it is quite possible a minute of His time could be the same as a million of ours.

I don't believe one species evolved into another, but I do believe a species can evolve and compensate according to their environment.

Hope that clears that up for ya.
