Although theistic evolution is not an outright denial, it is nevertheless a denial of Genesis. Those who allegorize Genesis or call it poetry do not do so based on the words found in the text but do so out of intimidation about what so-called science wants them to believe. One can disagree with the New Testament's literal, historical usage of Genesis 1-11, but one cannot honestly find in its pages anything less than a straightforward reading of these chapters as literal, relevant facts. Yet, his acceptance of evolution keeps him from taking Genesis seriously. Ironically, these attempts to accommodate so-called science with such a compromise do not satisfy evolutionists.
Evolutionists deny that such a marriage between evolution and theism can exist.
In 1893 Asa Gray of Harvard, one of the first advocates of theistic evolution recognized the conflict between evolution and theism. The God implied by evolutionary theory and the data of natural history is not a loving God who cares about his productions. He is careless, indifferent, almost diabolical. I will answer your question about evolution leading to atheism in a later column. As a result, the whole biblical system of salvation collapses .
