To all Christian scientists, when the question is asked about where we come from do you follow the scientific path of evolution or the religious path of Adam 'n' Eve?

I wanted to hear the scientists point of view. Do they follow their faith or their professional upbringing. Maybe evolution and therefore science could be considered sacreligious by true believers.

As a scientist, my ideology is a bit different from current evolution theories and religious doctrine from the Bible. In the realm of evolution, there is still a "missing link" that directly connects us to a simian type creature. As far as Adam and Eve are concerned, well, I believe humans already existed in different parts of the world, accounting for anthropological and racial differences. Moreover, evidence clearly shows that the earliest humans existed in Africa.

I am not a scientists. I did science in my school, Chemistry, Physic, Bio. I understand that the Science theory are true as they can be tested, and is always happened as predicted.
None can proof Evolution. If evolution is right, it should be in continuous process, and not in batches. Ideally speaking, we should see some animal in the zoo transform into other species. We don't have to invent plane for we will have wings.
All these are not happening. Can it still be a science?
I am always confused when people says that Evolution is a science, and that human came from monkey. It is illogical to me, and no proof to says that it is true.

There is nothing called christian scientists or artists.Christians are those who believe in the HOLY BIBLE and teachings of Jesus and son of GOD.It is a belif or faith.Belief or faith does not require proof.The moment you question any of these you cease to be a Christian.
Is there proof for God?No
Is there any proof for NO GOD? No.They why one class of people criticise other?What is science?The latin word scientia is the origin of word Science.Meaning of that word is "organised knowledge " and nothing else.Then religion is also science.If truth is the basis of science,can you prove what is gravitation?Can you count the number of atoms and molecules and prove Avogadros hypothesis?So let those people who want ti believe in Adam and Eve believe in them.The evoultion is also a theory only.If the therory of Natural selection and survival of fittest only is correct,man only should be there.Not monkey.There are a lot of holes in the theory of evolution also.

I think eventually if you keep going back further and further science becomes at a loss to answer questions then you must speculate or theorize. I personally believe in creation according to Genesis because like Evolution it starts from smaller things and foundations and works up to the most complex organism. I think the bible is a good scientific tool and an archeological tool.

Both are possible together. I heard once that the chance of the Big Bang happening naturally is that of a hurricane going through a scrap heap and creating a jumbo jet. What created the big bang? God?
Both theories have much in common. Each event happens in the same order. It may not have happened in six days, but the Hebrew word for 'day' is the same as that for 'period of time' I think that both theories can be correct.

They always think the scientific way until the time of dieing is come. It all started with Charles Darwin during the time of this life he never believed in God but later admitted when he was on his death bed. They all do the same and are proud to have the same foolish identity so they can preserve their 'dignity' as followers of their arrogant leader...

I don't see the two as contradictory. I regard evolution as scientific fact well supported by the evidence and the creation story of Genesis as figurative.
