pragmatic, i read the 'blind watchmaker'
my idea of creationism is very, very different from most creationists.
i believe ine evolution and creaticism equally.
see, in the qur'an (sura al-imran, 3:33) god specifically says: "god chose (asthafaa) adam, noah, abaham and the family of amram above the nations."
what that means is that adam was not the first human being. otherwise, he couldn't be "chose" above anybody else, who he?
so my thing is that god created whatever god created first... and the evolution process took place... where everything then goes back to the same source. (in biology, and in evolution, this is called "the cell.")
imagine, if you will, how god explains the process of the human body in the qur'an (which now modern science is conforming to be the case.)
but it is hard to let reer baadiyeyaal somalis and other muslims to graps the "big" ideas in the qur'an
