The bible obviously needs to be interpreted in some way since if it wasn't one would get alot of funny ideas (eg: if you didnt read psalms knowing what poetry is it could be difficult). I also think that I should interpret the bible to the best of my knowledge, and this includes science.
When I first became a Christian, I thought a lot about theistic evolution. I do not hold to is as it seems to me to create inconsistencies. For example the Bible at Romans 5:12 seems to say that death came into the world because of Adam's sin. Theistic evolution seems to say that death existed long before man even entered on the the scene. How do you address such issues?

What do you mean?
