There is a difference between not accepting the THEORY of evolution in its entirety and rejecting it completely.
“There is a difference between not accepting the THEORY of evolution in its entirety and rejecting it completely.”
Which part of “survival of the fittest” is being rejected?
I’m a born-again, evangelical Baptist. I know of nobody who rejects evolution in its entirety, except those who do not understand the theory (and that is a lot).
They reject it out of ignorance, emotion and fear that it is just another attempt to destroy the credibility of the Bible.
I fear no scientific truth. no truth can harm the credibility of the Bible, not one iota. (our understanding of the Bible is also incomplete and often enlightened by new understandings of nature)
I welcome all honest research and debate on the issue. Besides evolution is good design, essential to an autonomous, self-replicating system intended to survive in continuously varying conditions. (Mankind is the first species who has developed a very robust rapid/immediate response to survival in extreme weather or climate changes)
But there is no question God fears answered truthfully.
Remember, it is Christianity, that has created the greatest environment, culture and motivation to advance science. No other cultures have been more successful, particularly since the Reformation.
The Bible implores us over and over again to seek wisdom and understanding even “though it cost all you have get understanding”.
just stay honest. (both sides)
