(serious) semantics question: Does the term "quote mining" always carry a negative connotation? I have felt that it does. Also, is it really "quote mining" if I supply the url?

Anyway, I thought the Dr's quote was fairly presented within the paragraph I cut and pasted.

Ok, so you accept there are natural processes, divined from god, driving "microevolution." Did god put those processes in place and leave it alone, or is he governing them 24-7? I'm asking you these things seriously, to get a better feel as to where you are coming from.

Good questions, as I have often wondered this myself. My son (7 years old) asked me the other day as well. I will tell you the same thing I told him: I have no idea.

However, if I were to bet on it, I would say that He continues to influence life on Earth in ways we don't fully understand yet.
