Christian Faith Requires Accepting Evolution

[fr0d0]

The creation story holds to the truth of the rest of scripture, so it's not "did God," it's God did.

I agree.

What I'm saying is that what you're saying is literal is not supportable. No one has offered an exegetical study in support. Walton offers a very thorough and convincing study to support a view which doesn't contradict science. That wasn't his purpose. His purpose was to drill down into the exact meaning of the text to most honestly reveal what it says.

I believe we always need room for dissenters and opposing ideas. That's healthy.
