Interesting view she has. Did you know famed paleontologist, Bob Bakker, who you see on just every one of the televised dinosaur documentaries, is an ordained minster?

In his 1986 work The Dinosaur Heresies, Bakker puts forth the theory ...

Robert T. Bakker: Noch immer Kurator der Paläontologie am Houston ...

"An Ecumenical Christian minister, Bakker has said there is no real conflict between religion and science, and that evolution of species and geologic history is compatible with religious belief. Bakker views the Bible as an ethical and moral guide, rather than a literal timetable of events in the history of life. He has advised non-believers and creationists to read the views put forward by Saint Augustine, who argued against a literal understanding of the Book of Genesis.[8]"

Bakker is a stubborn bone head.

Evolution was dead when Darwin published, and he had often acknowledged it.

As we see on this thread, again and again and again, young-earthers sacrifice the Queen of God’s existence in order to save the Pawn of bibical inerrancy.

My take on the whole evolution versus creationist, seven days versus several billion years is just this. I have no idea what constitutes a day to GOD. The universe (much less infinity) is just to big for my peanut brain to comprehend
The whole universe is GODS petri dish experiment, God can take a swizzle stick to it any time GOD wants to.
