<<Well. There is much in the Roman Catholic Church that I respect, and very much that I reject. If that great church now embraces the grand claims of evolution, well, it has merely added to the number of the latter.>> I am not an evolutionist in the sense that I know any thing for a fact about creation. I have to accept what was theory and now can be easily replicated. The research on how species adapt to their environment is interesting and useful. A plausible explanation for the first life that evolutionists present is the cosmic soup explanation. That is: protoplasm was first organized and energized in the cosmos by the right properties just coming together (I'm greatly simplifying here). Well I do believe in God and I don't see a problem with this possibility. If it happened that way, fine. If it didn't that's fine too. Because I believe in God, I also would say he willed it to be so. That's enough for me. He would have been stirring the soup.<g> That said there is still nothing that would drive me to stand on this theory as fact. I don't believe even if some cosmic soup was the initial chain on some grand evolutionary continuum that God isn't the originator, organizer and supervisor of it all. It is all to purposeful, complex, and perfect. I also don't think it dismisses all other scriptures; Such as, Adam and Eve. Because I believe God can will something any time he pleases at any point in the process. Lot's of historical evidence on that. I don't have a problem with accepting this as a plausible possibility, except when it precludes all other plausible explanations. I don't think it can be replicated through purely scientific inquiry. In that case it definitely becomes its own religion based on beliefs not scientifically researched facts. Thanks, jbe for nudging me to think this through.
