Science, Creation & EvolutionMicroevolution over time...Many Catholics and Christians were philosophers and pioneers in science. Take Gregory Mendel, a Catholic monk who is the father of Genetics, for instance. There was a first man and first woman, no matter what side of the coin one is on. I've avocated the "God of the Gaps" theory, so God could have created man from a hominid-like ape. "Dust of the earth" may refer to a worldly creature instead of actual sand and soil. I think to use light as a tool to measure the age of the earth is outrageous. Hard-core fossil evidence is enough to show that animals grew and progressed slowly other time. We can diagram the evolution of certain creatures, like elephants and horses. Have you seen diagrams like that in National Geographic and other magazines? There are alot of loops and holes in the picture. I advocate strongly that God Himself seeded life. There's no way life just became, it's too complex. And we have no "intermediate" forms between basic chemicals and complex self-sustaining protein systems. God likely interceded from time to time so that life would develope in the ways He wanted. God was likely tired of watching nothing but bacteria for three billion years, so then we have this huge explosion of eukaryotes and multicellular life in the late Precambrian. |
