No, what I am meant was, if man descended from earlier primates, rather than was “made from scratch” in the Garden of Eden, Genesis is repudiated, and specifically the doctrine of “original sin” resulting from Adam’s fall from grace is repudiated. And if original sin is repudiated, Jesus’s death and resurrection were unnecessary. The Christian faith is based on the notion that God sent Jesus to earth as savior, i.e. to redeem man for his original sin (Adam’s), and as the exclusive pathway to redemption.
Therefore, one cannot believe in both evolution (macro, not micro) and Christianity. The creationists have a lot at stake in taking on evolution, for if they are wrong (as they surely are), their entire religion is nonsense.
You have a right to believe what you want Buckeye, and it may not be my place to say this, but please, don't throw your life away. Read the Gospels, and read them with an open heart, and listen to what Christ has to say.
Set aside your reason, your logic, your science, your pride, and just listen, and you will know that there is only one truth, and that truth is in the word.
There is no other truth except the word.
