Genesis has always been consistent with the current state of science except one brief period in the early 20th Century when cosmology went off the rails with the Steady State Theory that didn’t last long. I trust that science illuminates Genesis and Genesis illuminates science for a long time to come. It is the over-interpretations of both that fall to the side.
Evolution is the only possible theory if you assume there is no God and you have to fit everything into the materialist paradigm, especially when trying to convince someone of your materialist assumption that underpins the entire edifice, exploiting a superior knowledge of the data to argue from authority. But it only requires the slightest doubt or the materialist assumption and a reasonable inquiry to find that the data is stretched and interpreted to support the assumption rather than taken on its face whether it supports the theorized processes.
I laugh at “evidence” like the Galapagos birds who “evolved” curved beaks to get the insects they eat. What really would have happened without intervention is that the straight-beaked birds would have starved to death.
Dang, I just knew you would be a fun one to chat at.
I appreciate you and your perspective. Unfortunately I now have to crash. Be look forward to your comments in the future.
