[quote]You can have Christianity and God with macroevolution. It's not hard until people start taking scripture literally and applying their own "logic" to fill in gaps they are too limited to discover.[/quote]Interpretation of Genesis is to be taken literally. Here's why: (1) The original translation explained that the process of creation was described with the Hebrew word "yom," which literally meant one 24-hour day. (2) God, by definition, is omnipotent (Luke 1:37); therefore, He can create whatever He wants from nothing (Genesis 1:1). [quote]Religion is flexible and open to interpretation.[/quote]Whatever religion (besides Chrisianity) one is from, I have no bone to pick with them. For Christianity however, the interpretation for very every passage is the same as it should be interpreted and is never to changed or under questionable discussion in order to be more appeasing. [quote]It can adapt...[/quote]You lost me after you said "it." What is "it"? Are you referring to the Bible or Evolution? [quote]Watch the evolution episode of cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson. It goes over the evolution of the eye in simple terms.[/quote]Does it have a rebuttal against Darwin's statement, "To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selection, seems, I confess, absurd in the highest degree...The difficulty of believing that a perfect and complex eye could be formed by natural selection , though insuperable by our imagination, should not be considered subversive of the theory" ([i]On the Origin of Species[/i], Chapter 6), or against Richard Dawkins admittance, which was mentioned in the OP? You can mention it on the forums since I may not have time to watch it.
