Evolution

People have always debated God vs Evolution. Creationism vs Darwinism. Most of them haven't read The Bible properly and almost none have read Darwin's book Origin Of The Species.

Literalist Christians are now trying to tell us that evolution didn't happen, that things are exactly like the say in the Bible, that God literally made the world and put everything here.

Of course if that were true we wouldn't ahve sex and birth. We woudn't grow from a single cell. What God did was create DNA. Wilson and Crick, when they discovered DNA (for which they won the Nobel Prize) believed they could see God's hand in the design of DNA.

So it is with evolution. God may have created Life, but He created it so it would mutate and evolve.

Genesis 1:24 says "And God said `Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds'."

God didn't create the various forms of Life. He let the land produce it's own creatures, all the variations are down to evolution.

"According to it's kind" the book tells us. "It's kind" is DNA.
