    He has, in Genesis, told us that He created life by natural means. Life was not spoken into existence as YE creationists claim, but rather was brought forth by the earth and waters, as He intended.

    The above is why orthodox Christians accept that evolution is consistent with our faith. YE creationism, because "life ex nihilo" contradicts His word in Genesis, cannot be orthodox.

    Fortunately, it's not a salvation issue.

    What I could say is "Here's the trouble with substituting a view of God's word, or interpretation of God's word, for science." If a view of scripture is clearly contrary to observation, then the interpretation is flawed.
