The question I propose to you is:
I only decided to put one question this time, so it should be pretty easy to answer. Also, if you are a climate change denier, this applies to you too.
- What is the probability that the same thing that happened with Galileo and the church (geocentric vs. heliocentric) will happen again with evolutionists and the church (evolution vs. creation)? By this, I mean that evolution, in just a few decades, will be as accepted as the geocentric theory is today.
Thanks!
I'm not a creationist but wanted to chime in here and say that the Church has 0 issue with evolution. The past several popes have talked about it as a perfectly acceptable scientific explanation for how we got the world we live in today. I learned about evolution in my Catholic school. The man who first introduced the idea of the Big Bang Theory was a Catholic priest, and the pope of the time was super excited about it. Yep, no problem here!
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
