“As to harmonizing the theory of evolution with the Biblical account of creation, I do not believe it can be done, and I do not see why it should be. The story of Genesis is beautiful, and profoundly significant as symbolism: there is no good reason to torture it into conformity with modern theory.” ShouldBelieveReasonDoneStoriesBeautifulReligionModernCreationTheoryEvolutionAccountsSignificantTortureConformityBiblicalGenesisSymbolismTheory Of Evolution Author:Will Durant
“When it comes to the whole debate today over evolution versus creation, Jesus affirmed the early chapters of Genesis were accurate when He said, "Have you not read, that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female" (Matthew 19:4). Adam and Eve didn't come on the scene after billions of years of mutations and evolution. No. God created them all the way back in the beginning-just like Moses reported in the Book of Genesis.” WayYearsMadeSaidBookWholeTodayJesusCreationEvolutionSceneBibleFemaleMalesBillionsDebateAdamAccurateChaptersVersusMosesGenesisMatthewAdam And EveMutationBook Of Genesis Author:Charlie Campbell

“The tragedy of young-earth creationism is that it takes a relatively recent and extreme view of Genesis, applies to it an unjustified scientific gloss, and then asks sincere and well-meaning seekers to swallow this whole, despite the massive discordance with decades of scientific evidence from multiple disciplines. Is it any wonder that many sadly turn away from faith concluding that they cannot believe in a God who asks for an abandonment of logic and reason?” BelieveWellsReasonWholeEarthYoungTurnsAsksViewsWonderEvolutionDisciplineEvidenceLogicTragedyExtremesDecadesDespiteMassiveSincereMultipleSeekersAbandonmentGenesisCreationismGlossUnjustifiedScientific EvidenceConcluding Author:Francis Collins
“At any rate, if evolution turns out to be true, then the Christian should embrace it as one dedicated to following the truth wherever it leads. This might mean reworking his interpretation of Genesis on the subject-much like Christians have had to rework their interpretation of biblical passages referring to the sun rising and setting, the earth not moving, or the earth resting on foundations.” IfsShouldMeanMightEarthChristianMovingTurnsSunSubjectsEvolutionFoundationEmbraceRateFollowingSettingSettingsBeing TrueRisingInterpretationPassagesDedicatedBiblicalGenesisReferringRework Author:Paul Copan
