Recently I had a conversation with a Christian co worker (lets call her Sam) on evolution and the bible. When I told her that I believed God created the world within 7 literal days Sam thought I had lost my mind. “What about the rocks that are millions of years old? What about all the scientific evidence proving evolution took place? Couldn’t God have used evolution to create us and Genesis is just a figurative poem? Didn’t Jesus talk in parables? Maybe Genesis is a parable!” I believe many Christians currently have the same questions as Sam; some have even given up on a literal definition of Genesis. This poses a huge threat to the Church and is worth spending some time on.
