Evolution is: "the process by which different kinds of living organisms are thought to have developed" Science is: "the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment."
Of course definitions change daily. Sort of like the soup of the day or the flavor of the week. Things tend to change.
give rise to creatures with intelligence and in whom he could infuse this search for him and this knowledge of good and evil.
This is obviously untrue but there is little hope that those who have drunk the Kool aid will ever admit it.
Do you really want to know their answer to that? Is gravity a fact or a theory? Should we follow Newton's theory of gravity or Einstein's theory? Newton says gravity is an attraction. Einstein says that gravity is more of a push or a shove.If it is a fact, and they are 100% certain of its veracity, then why do they still call it a THEORY?????
You think that Collins is a heretic? I gave you the link, you can read the whole article. Or you can read his book: "The Language of God". He is the leading expert on DNA. You should show him more respect and the rules of the form require that also. Someday you may need to be cured from a disease that he helped to find the cure. Right now science is working on a protein that can cure the common cold and most all viruses.Just where does the bible actually teach this heretical thought?

Science is not good or evil. Sort of like a knife. You can use a knife to prepare your food or to build a house. In the hands of a doctor a knife can cut away the disease and bring about healing. You can also use a knife to do harm and injury.Evolution is....a process used to destroy the reason for Christ Jesus.
The Holy Spirit has been given to be our Guide, our Teacher, to guide us and to lead us into the truth.so, should we follow the religion of evolutionism or Jesus?
This is the second time you have done this, even after you were warned. Clearly you are guilty of what you accuse others of. "Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?"you are a heretic
Drew inevitably any discussion about the literalness of Genesis will break down into a discussion of evolution. The reason for that the vast majority of Christians that do not believe in a literal Genesis base that fact on evolution and not on Scripture itself. Thier father in evolution causes them to have to dismiss Genesis. It's interesting that some Christians defend the integrity of Scripture which is the inspired word of God and others defend evolution which is a product if mans thoughts.This is not where I wanted this thread to go at all.
The word "theory" is used to mean different things. At one extreme, we use the word to denote a naked, unsupported hypothesis:If it is a fact, and they are 100% certain of its veracity, then why do they still call it a THEORY?????

Evolutionists work hard to gather evidence that can be used for Creationism just the same as it can be used for evolutionary theory. Each and every individual has the choice if they want to honor God or not.

Hebrews 11:8 "I will put My laws in their minds, and inscribe them on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they will be My people. 11No longer will each one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest."

Matthew 7:1-3 "Do not judge, or you will be judged. 2 For with the same judgment you pronounce, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 3 Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye, but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?"
This is a distraction about the fluid boundaries of word meanings. Evolution is a scientific fact and it is also a theory in the way that scientists use the term theory: to denote an evidentially-supported explanation of observations.Science is facts, and the gathering thereof. Evolution is the interpretation of those facts to fit a particular viewpoint. A theory ( as you called evolution yourself above) cannot be a fact. Those terms are mutually exclusive.

Whenever historical narrative is written, there is always tension between the actual events and the literary considerations of constructing the narrative. To put it crudely, the author of the narrative has to decide how much he is going to let the truth stand in the way of a good story. The possibilities can range from historical fiction all the way to historical-positivist narrative, depending on the author's literary intention. The range of possibilities acceptable in historical writing has also varied considerably over time. This we know because, among other things, various ancient historians have written treatises on how they struck the fact/narrative balance. The study of how historical narrative is and was written is called Historiography.Please give me another alternative. Interested. Either the events described in Genesis happened as described or they didn't. Is there another alternative? If they didn't happen as described then what are all the alternatives? I'm curious.
Because we know you very well and know that you will ignore the answer if it doesn't suit your rhetorical agenda.As a christian...Why do you refuse to tell us why we sin? Where our sin nature came from?
