Will public acceptance of Evolution bring the downfall of Christianity?

Answer 1

Naw... evolution is simply a theory and like other scientific theories, it will change and soon be replaced by something else. Christianity on the other hand is rooted in Jesus Christ who is both God and Savior. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever so those who put their faith in Him (instead of evolution) will live forever with Him.

Answer 2

No.

I was raised Presbyterian and evolution never came up at all. The seven days of creation were viewed as some kind of allegory. Nobody complained that the public schools were teaching evolution and deep time. As an adult I converted to Episcopalianism. I didn't know anyone in my church who took the bible literally.

Creationism is a sideshow for the right wing closet cases. These are the people that you want to have manning the phone banks and maybe knocking on doors but you don't want them to run for office because it gets embarrassing - like the Kansas Board of Education.

Answer 3

At one point in history it was blasphemy to believe that the world was round. Now it is common knowledge and Christianity still thrives. The only way to bring Christianity down would be to disprove the existence of god, and since god cannot be proved or disproved, Christianity will exist for a very very long time. That's the beauty of that religion. By the way I am not a Christian.

Answer 4

No. And most Christians (especially outside of the US) accept evolution as fact. Even the Roman Catholics who have a history of rejecting science (it was 1992 before they finally accepted that the Earth revolves around the Sun).

Answer 5

in case you spend the time to be sure how the ACLU tricked this united states approximately accepting the thought of evolution by potential of paying all the charges for the The Scopes path later called The Monkey path , and an stunning style of alternative issues, you does not could ask the question you asked in view which you may comprehend the respond. by potential of how on your quest for the reality my l advise which you look into the if the reality that Darwin became an agnostic might have something to do along with his concept?

Answer 6

No....Christians always find a way to reluctantly accept that which they fiercely denied a short time earlier. They will find metaphors and allusions in the Bible, concerning evolution, that they somehow had never spotted before...now in the face of scientific fact and overwhelming public belief it can no longer be denied. As long as they can still cling to a false God they'll accept anything the Church tells them is acceptable, regardless of personal previous belief. You gotta watch these wily Christians, they're pretty sneaky.

Answer 7

It's the same as when the church flipped out over the idea that the Earth goes around the Sun, and the Earth wasn't the center of the universe, that was considered heresy, but once those ideas were accepted, the world didn't fall into anarchy, with people having mass orgies in the street, and killing everybody and burning down all the cities, and and whatnot.

Answer 8

No more then the public acceptance of the round earth theory. Christianity will slowly fissile out as people become smarter and more aware of the world. But no single event will completely wake people up.

Answer 9

No, because as soon as I go to college and study Creation in more depth, then I will be out there giving credible evidence for Creation. And then evolution won't have a leg to stand on. Of course it is all according to God's will, if He wishes for it to happen then it will...

Answer 10

Yes, evolution leaves no room for a God that created Adam and Eve. They Christians might try to salvage what credibility they can by claiming they accept it, but in reality evolution and Christianity don't mix.
