[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 2699596, member: 25419"] FWIW - my opinion: The Old Testament is basically a history of man, and the development of the Israelites as a nation/tribe. It tells of Creation, the fall of man, and the tumultuous ups and downs of the Israelites. Many things have been verified by archeology, so I know the events described are not "fairy tales". I know the early books were recorded from oral tradition, so counting on man's memory and accuracy in describing what God did, is probably leaning more on faith in man, than faith in God. I personally have no conflict believing animals, including humans, evolve. I doubt that a chimpanzee evolved to a human, if that were true, why wouldn't all of them evolve? Looking at wildlife, natural selection seems pretty obvious to me. Unfortunately, we as humans tend to prevent that in our own species. [/QUOTE]
