Interesting article about creation/evolution

Here is an interesting article about those who hold to "theistic evolution" that appeared in the Seatle Times recently. [click here]

Despite this scathing article that basically claims that theistic evolution is a viable theory for hte creation of the world, I keep it on my list of acceptable positions. (Let me be clear though, I hold to a 7 day creation, 24×7)

Here’s why I am not going to blast theistic evolution as other so readily do. My big point is always the same, you don’t have to be a 7 day creationist to be a Christian! (Doing so would be a work, wouldn’t it?) I beleive that we need to respect people’s positions as they grow. For me, it took a long while of examining the evidence for myself to accept the creation story. In fact, it wasn’t until I read a few books on the subject itself that I really grasped how much crap evolution is based on. (In fact, it is my beleif that evolution is just as much a religion as Christianity and if there is a seperation between church/state that evolution shouldn’t be taught either. I find it easier to have faith in Santa Claus than macroevolution.)

Here are a couple of books that helped me along the way.

• Genesis Record
• Bones of Contention
