>>it makes me quite sad. We can agree to disagree, but evolutionism only validates our culture of death and amorality.
If we were not created, then owe nothing to a creator, and have no rules to follow. Anyone’s morals or lack thereof are equally valid, as they all evolved from the same system. Hence abortion, euthanasia, stem cell research and the like are not morally depraved choices, but just continuing evolution. This leads to moral decline and eventually the death of our society.<<
I believe life wa created. We know from the bible that God works through famine and the God works through war. Why is it odd that He would work through biology?
In any case, he has given us the tools to explore the world and its really clear that life evolved from simple to complex. That doesn’t change my faith because I’ve had a personal experience with God and he asked me to do two things. I’ve tried to do those things and my life has beomce much better.
I could die happy now although I am in no rush. I owe him more than I could ever repay and the particular mechanism of science that turns out to be true won’t effect that.
I agree with most of what you say.
We disagree on the mechanism, after studying biology, physiology, etc as well as the Bible, I am convinced that creation happened as laid out in genesis, but if it does turn out that God worked through evolution it does not threaten my faith.
The situation I was addressing was those who because of a belief in evolution have no belief in or need for a Creator - hence no moral compass, etc. If you believe everything evolved essentially out of nothing, and there is no creator, then every moral system is as valid as any other, because all evolved equally. There is no absolute Truth in that case, and hence amorality and depravity results.
