Evolution

There is much debate regarding creationism and evolution these days. There are think tanks dedicated to the study of each. Ben Stein recently came out with a pro-creationism movie. Several states have introduced laws to teach creationism in public school science classes. It is one of the biggest sticking points between non-believers and believers. Keith and I were actually discussing it the other morning. He made some good points and it clarified my position on evolution.

This is a delicate matter. If I say I don’t believe in evolution then the non-believers that read my blog will write me off as non thinking idiot. If I say I believe in evolution then the Christians that read my blog might write me off because I have belittled the power of God. However, I feel it is an important topic that I need to weigh in on. So now I will let you all know my opinion on evolution.

Don’t care.

That’s right I just don’t think the answer to this question matters. It’s an interesting topic to discuss and debate, but ultimately it doesn’t matter. The only question in life that really matters is if there is a God. That single question drives your whole philosophy on life and therefore your experience in it. Then if you believe God does exist you have to decide what your relationship with Him is. For me this all leads to the other big question in life. Is Jesus Christ who He said He was.
