Can Christians believe in evolution? [Spirituality & Religion]

@Qwerty14 Abiogenesis? Nope! Natural selection leading to all the various species we see? Nope! Adaptation to changing environments? Yes. A good design functions well.

@hippyjoe1955 Fuck off Joe. I'm not in the mood

@Qwerty14 After you idiot. Blocking remains an option for your closed mind.

@hippyjoe1955 Now I'm awake I just wanna inform you that just because you don't believe in evolution, doesn't mean most Christians deny it. The Pope said evolution is fact. That means all Catholics should accept it. They make up the majority of Christians so my statement is true.

@Qwerty14 Most Christians like all secularists are not the informed on science. if they were they would agree evolution as taught in school is nonsense.

@hippyjoe1955 I'm pretty informed on the subject. Calling it nonsense is incorrect. Sure some of the paleontological evidence is questionable at best. But a lot can be observed without fossils.

@Qwerty14 You are ignorant if you believe it as fact. It simply can not have happened as imagined.

@hippyjoe1955 I don't imagine anything. You're confusing evolution with the origin of life. Evolution is just how gene migrate and mutate over time through means such as natural selection. Science can prove that beyond a doubt. It can't tell us how life on Earth started though. For all we know, God did that. It's just as believable.

@Qwerty14 Nope. You are trying to avoid the obvious. If there is a God then He would be able to direct change and thus change would not be 'natural selection'. If there is no God then abiogenesis is the only way life could come to exist. However we know that can't happen so..... There is a God that is still in control of His Creation and is directing the paths it should go.

@hippyjoe1955 I disagree. I think for your theory to work you'd have to accept that humans have no free will

@Qwerty14 Good for you. Your opinion is not science of scientific. However if you take it and a few bucks you can buy a coffee at starbucks.

@hippyjoe1955 So I point out a flaw in your logic and you just become sarky? This is why people don't like talking with you

@Qwerty14 You have only pointed out your own foolishness.
