It is NOT inconsistent to be both an evolutionist AND a believer in Divine intervention. Who is to say at what stage of evolution the Lord 'breathed' a soul into what became humanity? I attended 12 years of Catholic education in NYC taught by nuns, and never once did I hear that one belief excluded the other. It's a non-issue in my opinion.

:-) I find the fact that the Zealot here ( Paradigm ) besmirched the Scientist without even a read of the information that led to the conclusion or a how do you do! And listing the Bible as Consistent is true in the fact that it has regurgitated the same stories many books told prior to its release :) Do some research on both pls before giving your mightier than thou comments. GOD = Great/Good . . . or Divine? Council of Nicea,... If that's made up, what else might be?

The book "Nature's I.Q." (Torchlight Publishing) demonstrates that it's not logical that inert matter can organise itself into very complex forms like living beings. In our experience, inert matter follows more simple laws, and complex forms tend to be broken down into simpler forms by nature. The theory above isn't what we experience in reality. Rather than having inert matter do amazing things that it doesn't do, it's more logical that an intelligent designer is at work in the world around us. Our bodies themselves would be dead matter except for the presence of the jiva ("soul" in Sanskrit). The superior energy (jiva) manipulates the inferior energy (prakriti, or matter). The Vedic texts of ancient India (See Krishna.com)gives plenty of useful information in regards to our origins. Have a nice day!

Arrogant nonsense - over the years I've seen a great deal more sense consistent with the Bible than with 'scatty' professors who evolve strange theses that they'll never live long enough to see discredited.
