Hi ,
This is Part 1 of a 2-part e-mail.
Why do intelligent people believe in evolution? It's a question I'm often asked. The answer is based in the truth that this is NOT just a science issue. Many people like to think that
it is, but it goes much deeper than that -- this is actually a spiritual issue, first and foremost. While science can play a part in the discussion, it's very limited having no "mind of its own".
Since Darwin's time, the lack of evidence for his theory has proved to actually undermine it. So, why would otherwise intelligent people believe it? - or say that they
believe it? Here are the first two reasons why...
1. Ignorance - they know nothing other than what they were taught, most likely in school.
2. Observation - we see "natural" events on Earth, not "supernatural ones.
Click on the link below to see each of these two points explained a bit further. In an upcoming e-mail, I will add the other three.
In Christ,
