Maelstrom Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 [url="http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2011/04/10/my-take-jesus-would-believe-in-evolution-and-so-should-you/"]Jesus would believe in evolution.[/url] Or would he? What is your take on the subject? Straight up creationist/atheist or the usual synthesis of god guiding evolution/the natural mechanics of the universe? I feel like I should put more, but I really should sleep. I'll obviously write more of my own perspective of the whole when and if this topic attracts any interest.

Maelstrom Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 Well that's polarizing it a bit too much I think without really giving a good argument why it would be one view or the other. I mean the article does mention some relatively compelling reasons to blend in biblical beliefs with scientific finding. Which of course involves looking at stories like Adam and eve in a far less literal light and more of as metaphors and/or analogies as far as the god-human relationship goes. The author of the article is proposing a middle-ground and I'd just like to see some structured arguments for or against any particular viewpoint mentioned. (Don't get me wrong though, I'm an atheist myself despite being raised catholic. I'm just trying to promote more detailed scrutiny of the different viewpoints, of how people have arrived at them and how different people ultimately choose what ideas they support) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
