Does It Really Matter?

from JoeUser Forums

The difference between divine intelligence and evolution is barely perceptible until the creationists butt in and resort to the unsustainable six thousand year formula. Divine intelligence underlying creation is not far from Darwin’s “natural selection” whose inference is that “selection” did not start from a vacuum, but rather chemical reaction, however seemingly haphazard, somehow leaped from the inorganic to the organic by an inscrutably maddening but logistical design.

Your article kind of leaves off hanging in the air.  I like the premise tho,  Very Insightful.

You're right, it's but a pithy statement because I have already explored this in blogs of old. Thanks, though.

Nitpicks:

"maddeningly inscrutable" and "logical" cause this article to make much more sense.

meh... In my opinion, there are far more evolution proponents that refuse to accept any possibility of there being a God, than there are "creationists" that hold fast to a 6000 year old earth. I have had the priviledge of circulating among a great many of both circles, and in my experience stolid close-mindedness weighs much, much more heavily among atheist proponents of evolution...

Nit: I did not say logical, but logistical, that is, the indefinable manner in which nature manifests.

Baker: atheists and proponents of evolution are not synonymous.
