Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
The only qualifier that has a perceivable function is theistic evolution, and only then because it identifies, to creationists, the population of theists who accept evolution to be fact. Creationists hardly care if atheists and agnostics don't agree with them.

One belives In Evolution with no supper natural forces, deity, Gods, God, Godhead, Goddess, ect. Why the others belives that Evolution was guided by the hand of a Deity, Gods, God, Godhead, Goddess, ect. But is there such a thing as Agnostic Evolution? As is in maby some one who belives in evolution but admits he dose not know if there is a God Or belives in evolution but also admit he dose not know how we got here?
So I was wondering if maby we should add Agnostic evolution for those who belive in Evolution but are not 100% sure if there is a God or not.
What do you think?
Happy Birthday.
I really don't like terms like agnostic evolutionist, theistic evolutionist, etc. Although they serve a purpose they tend to imply differences where few exist.
I'm a christian, I'm a scientist and I know that evolution is true. Not sure that it really needs a label.

I'll be more enthusiastic about encouraging thinking outside the box when there's evidence of any thinking going on inside it.
I believe theistic evolution, but who can be sure?
Why not theistic gravitation where God nudges comets and meteors in Earth crossing orbits? Why not theistic germ disease where God moves bacteria where they are most likely to cause infection? Why not theistic chemistry where reactants are moved together by God's hand?
Why does evolution have a theistic version but not other theories?

Mostly because some sect of the same religion (and Richie Dorkings) are saying that if you believe in evolution you are a Atheist.
So have the same sects are not saying that belief in gravitation or germ disease are incompatible with Christianity.

I assume you meant Richard Dawkins?
