Whether God played with evolution (theistic evolution) or not (atheistic evolution), that is the question it seems. Personally, I see God's hand in it. Creation is simply too magnificent to come about by itself. And yet… there seems to be so much biological evidence for evolution in the human genome.

Wed, 29 Aug 2007 03:47:26 +0000 http://academicfreedomblog.org/2007/08/28/are-you-absolutely-sure/#comment-214 I look at this subject as a matter of what is more plausible. Is it more plausible that through eons of randomness that goop becomes intelligent, and behaves intelligently to eventually morph into life as we know it? Not only "life", but species of every kind that work together in the harmony and reality that we call nature? Or is it more plausible that there is a Creator, or "intelligent designer" who spun things into existence through the power of His spoken word, resulting in life so intricately balanced, that to consider randomness above a design would be truly irrational, in spite of not being able explore all explanations for either case. Having faith in a creator makes much more sense. good thoughts. I look at this subject as a matter of what is more plausible.
