if so, that is two main competing stories, how we ever resolve our differences> i mean, we all know my Story is better than your Story. wink

science, metaphysical, divine, there's a lot to discuss here. i feel a lot of heat, but see very little light.

perhaps we'll never know for sure?


Sure you'll know . . just like you know now . . to each his own, it's as simple as that.

As for two stories, they are not divine creation versus evolution, they are Theism versus Philosophical Materialism.

Evolution has nothing to say about creation.


Nothing to say, except that the literal 6 day story is not true.

Olaf, I have not asked you about your version of Christianity. Do you believe the creation story to be a literal truth, and that the earth is less then 10k years old?
