Questão 5

Responda
  • Evolution is the best explanation that we currently have for the existence of our species. Evolution does not rule our the role of God
  • Evolution cannot be true. The Bible is inerrant and contains the complete truth. There is a fixity of species.
  • Science and religion are not necessarily opposed. It is possible to believe in the big bang and the Genesis creation stories
  • God created the universe by his very word. The Big Bang cannot be true.
  • The Bible is literally the word of God. If it is contained in the Bible it is historically, scientifically and theologically true.
  • The Bible is a collection of books from many different genres. It requires careful, scholarly interpretation to arrive at the truth.
