Theistic evolution 1. Theistic evolution 2. PC can be minute steps, and even involve natural process but at their most essential they must be direct supernatural acts of God. The amount is to be determined by the geological record and biological experimentation. But there is no vertical radiation.
Vertical radiation is only by fiat creation.
A root-species may give rise to several species by horizontal radiation, through the process of the unraveling of gene potentialities or recombination. Horizontal radiation could account for much which now passes as evidence for the theory of evolution. The gaps in the geological record are gaps because vertical progress takes place only by creation. They are not Newton's laws. They are God's laws.
