Bertvan:
I prefer to leave the question of whether or not life evolved naturally in
the same category as the nature of the designer or what caused the big
bang.
These are very different questions. We can always have faith in a designer
but the Big Bang and evolution are quite open to scientific inquiry.
BV: Some people have criticized God for his numerous "imperfections". We've
discovered astonishing designs in nature, but the first sign of perfection
would have stopped evolution in its tracks. (no room for growth.) It had
to
be a plan that continually moves toward perfection without actually
reaching
it. Death and extinction were also necessary additions to allow growth.
Cool so evolution is God's mechanism?
So far I notice that you have many ideas about what happened and I appreciate
that you do not try to support them in science. Indeed, in faith we can find
our God.
