I find it interesting that Christians will invoke genetics when it suits their purposes, when Francis Collins, evangelical Christian and founder of the Human Genome Project, has openly stated the Adam & Eve story is genetically impossible.
And if Adam & Eve are genetically impossible, is original sin possible?
Why was there a crucifixion if there was no original sin?
And if a Christian studying human genome admits evolution is the mechanism by which God created all life from a common ancestor, what is the point of "looking for design?" Either God created ALL life, or God created life by an automated process, and directly created a couple forms of life, and hid them somewhere on the planet as Easter eggs, or God did not create any life.
It's not even a god of the gaps argument, it's god of the Where's Waldo argument.
