Evolution of a Creationist

Slip over to Stand Firm for this blog on creation(ism). We rate a mention, which is nice.

Just by the by, for an issue that is a 'side issue' as the SADists claim, it reliably attracts vast amounts of conversation both in Christian and non-christian circles...seems to be a little more interesting than the ACL's meetings! Yet the SAD blithly slips away from this ground of Biblical faith and Paul's proclamatory examples!

BTW, one of the commenters on Stand Firm got a little excited that we'd chosen the term 'heresy'.

Here's a dictionary definition of the word: "opinion or doctrine at variance with the orthodox or accepted doctrine"

Nothing to get steamed about, just a statement of fact; the SAD as we've criticised it is at variance with the historical acceptance in the church (and the Bible, I might add) that the doctrine of creation is established by Genesis 1, and not Genesis 1 plus materialism. The Archbishop has done nothing to repudiate his view that theistic evolution is satisfactory. Ipso facto...heresy!

At the very least the position of those who we are at odds with in the Diocese is an "opinion or doctrine at variance with the orthodox or accepted doctrine"

More than that it is downright destructive!
