This question is addressed primarily to Christians, but I welcome all constructive thoughts on the matter.
Why can God and evolution not coexist? I realize that the Bible says that God created man, but it also says that he created the heavens and the earth. Do some also question the credibility of astronomers and geologists? Why is it impossible that God used evolution as a tool to create us, as he uses so many various other tools every day? The order of the Biblical creation is even the same as the scientifically proposed natural creation. So my question is, why the disconnect?
Could it be the fact that many atheists attempt to use evolution as a way of disproving the Bible, and therefore Christians feel it necessary to oppose these atheists by refuting any beliefs that the atheists hold? I do not find it difficult to believe in evolution and to be a Christian, so why is it that so many Christians do? Am I missing something?
