There are those who would assert that one cannot believe in God and evolution at the same time; well, I certainly do! As Paul Little once observed, being a Christian does not mean kissing your brains goodbye! I believe that God created the world and all that there is in it, but that he operated through the mechanism of evolution. To myself, thinking of divine intelligence as continually operating to refine creation is far more wonderful than thinking of all life as the product of a single static creation. The fact that evolution is a theory doesn’t make it any less of a viable explanation. One cannot see the wind, but its effects are seen and felt. I do not regard belief in God and belief in evolution as mutually exclusive.

“Scientific Creationism” and its more recent cousin, “Intelligent Design” are not science, but are religious doctrine masquerading as science. They do not belong in the classroom. — How many times must the Scopes “Monkey Trial” be re-played?!
