In a recent post… HERE… Man of Spin has recently posted on the context of Christian leaders, lay-people, and Evolution, where the comment was made that there is not a monolithic perspective of this in Evangelical Christianity!

Randy Alcorn is a well-known and heavily publishing Christian author in both fiction and non-fiction contexts. Recently Alcorn posted the above question, going on to piece his own perspective on this point, which began with the following words… after the non-moving picture of the man…

First let me say that many sincere people believe in the Bible and also believe in an old earth. They do this via the gap theory or day age theory or some other means of interpretation.

Secondly, let me say that I am not certain about the age of the universe, the age of the earth, or when the first humans walked the earth. I have read very persuasive scientific arguments for an old earth, and have read some counterarguments that may have merit. I don’t feel qualified scientifically to make the judgment.

To read the meat of this post, which I am sure you are going to be desiring to do… Go HERE!

Do you agree?

Until Next Time
