Argument #1: Transitional Fossils

[DarkHorse]

Umpteen millions of Christians believe that both are right. Their view is that science reveals how God created the heavens, the Earth and life.

You keep ignoring everything I've posted about the BioLogos viewpoint so here's another one - How could humans have evolved and still be created in the “Image of God”?


I think the real problem with the evolution/religion conflict is that some theists regard evolution as atheist dogma which is used to promote the idea that God doesn't exist. Science can't prove that God doesn't exist and it can't disprove the idea that evolution is the way God did it. All it can do is disprove some ideas about God such as he created the universe 6,000 years ago.

These are Richard Dawkins's concluding thoughts in that debate he had with Francis Collins.

God vs Science


And now to Genesis 1


Genesis doesn't tell us that -

1: The greater light to govern the day (our sun) is one of billions of stars in the Milky Way galaxy.

2: Our sun isn't the only one with planets.

3: There are billions of galaxies in the universe.

Does this prove that God doesn't exist and didn't create the universe and everything in it? No. All it means is that if there is a God who spoke to humans he didn't intend the Bible to be regarded as a science textbook.

This is a twisting going on here. In Genesis 1:1 that covers that God made everything. When the author gets into more detail the sun and moon come into focus. We can't assume that the Lord only made the sun and this galaxy. The author simple brought the focus on this galaxy.

As far as moon being a light it is. The text doesn't say that the moon produces its own light, but it is a light because it reflects it. How many times have you heard the term moonlight.

Just doesn't get it.
