>>Do you see any merit in theistic evolution?

I hope you don't mind me jumping in, but I'm avoiding the market today and have time on my hands.

Why should a compromise with the evolutionists be necessary. The Bibles creation account stands on its own merits and scientific facts support it. The scientific method supports the principle of intelligent design. Evolution does not even follow the rules of the scientific method, hence evolutionists come up with revisions to the theory every few years, there is more debate within the evolution community then between evolutionists and creationists.

No one appraches a major project without extensive design first, even minor work requires some mental forethought if it is to be successful. How many intricate designs are imitations of God's designs. If even one human gene is messed up, life is threatened or deformed. Notice how medical science is moving to correct health problems: They compare defective genes to normal ones to determine what went wrong. Can they do this if we weren't programmed in a consistent and clear nature? The more man learns about the creation the more they honor God, the Creator.

The basis of evolution was and still is purely observational. (Man kind of looks like a Monkey but a little better so Man evovled from the Monkey). (A single cell creature is less complex than multiple cell organisms so there you have evolution.) That's basically it. The Fossil record doesn't even support Evolution.

Scientific facts tell us that a single cell creature contains the same and sometimes more complex genetic design than the supposedly more advanced multiple cell organisms. Using Evolutions line of reasoning then are we to conlude that Apes evolved from Humans. You see how weak the evolution theory is. Where is that missing link anyway? Never found it, because it doesn't exist. Evolution is a theory that was developed by the sametype of people who didn't wash their hands when they operated. A people who bled other people to cure the common cold.

Evolution was founded at a time when the scientific community was at odds with established religion. It's interesting to note the Marx was a firm believer in evolution, the perfect theory to support his aetheistic political theories. Scientists hated religion then and Darwins theory was easy to accept because it freed them from those religions that were misrepresenting God. It is interesting to note that some of the greatest Scientists including Einstien were great believers in GOD.
