Have you any other reason for dismissing evolution other than your smartness
By reading the Holy Bible, with a different attitude, I believe I have gained
much needed wisdom and knowledge. I no longer read it to just find fault.
I now believe the Holy Bible is correct if understood correctly. That does
not mean I understand everything in it, however. I have come to believe
there is a God and that he had something to do with having the scriptures
written for our benefit. Therefore, I try to pay attention to these writtings.
Evolution does not fit in with the truth of the scriptures as I see it. There
is no proof that biology or medical science needed the theory of evolution
to advance to where we are today. In fact, it may have retarded progress
by leading researchers in the wrong direction. Basically, I say there is
more evidence for creation than for evolution, unless you wish to call
adaptation, "evolution" instead.
