'T]here is no contradiction between an evolutionary theory of human origins and the doctrine of God as Creator."



Really master union???


the major disagreement between evolution and religion is: Did MAN evolve from Adam and EVE or from an APE?? Scientist insist from ape and Religion insist it is from the delicious copulation of Adam and EVE.. Therefore: END OF DISCUSSION!

At its core evolution attempts to describe phenomena of Change after creation. Evolution and intelligent design are not mutually exclusive dear Basra.

Alpha, I'd much more appreciate your opinions rather than your observations.

Limitations in both scientific and religious knowledge result in my opinion being worthless, in comparison to vast amount of information and opinions provided by scholars in both fields.

But when my bio teacher stood in front of a group of 16yos and declared that no religious text is worthy of being upheld as proof and can be confirmed to be without alterations, during our unit in evolutionary theory and natural selection, who happened to be one of the authors of the district standard textbook, my opinion on scientists, though not science, had been sealed.

I'm not willing to kowtow to their views. Call it religious zealotry, pride, arrogance, or simply ignorance, but I feel scientific evidence, regardless of empirical value, shouldn't be shoved down the throats of impressionable children. These are the same people who claim that all should be open minded and accepting of everyone, yet jump at anyone who suggests a system of beliefs that counters their own.

I am for science and for the inquisitiveness it encourages, but not for how it has been used.

I think this topic has been recycled way too much.

Wat frightens me most is the fact that the highest islamic authorities do not understand this theory or any other scientific theories!!!
How can they give a sound opinion!
Catholic priest go to university...philisophy in general (and epistomology ) are part of the courses they take!
They spend five years in university they know wat they talk about!

True, rabbis are like sheekhs, most of them are ignorant of science...but they have the this valuable modesty of not opening their mouth on every subject
The first thing to be revised is the way the sheekhs and imams are educated...they have to follow as part of their education modern science and philosophy!

Asking Saudi sheekhs about Evolution or Bing Bang theory has no use....the guys have no clue about it!
