Doc's Home: More on Evolution in Kansas

On my other blog, I have been commenting on the debate in Kansas over teaching evolution in schools. It has relevance to this blog's subject matter as well, since it deals with Christian thinking. Of particular interest is the last paragraph:

Fundamentally, we're comparing apples and oranges. On the question of the origins of the universe of or life on Earth, science looks at the "how" and religion looks at the "who" and the "why." As a Christian, I say God created the universe and created all life on Earth. That statement does not address the question of how He created the universe. Science attempts to provide an explanation of the how. Rather than fight against scientific discovery, Christians should be embracing science as a means of further understanding the mind and ways of God. The Bible tells us that God is understood through creation (Rom 1:20). So why do they want to quash that understanding of creation so much?
