This episode closes our discussion on evolution on what I tried to make a conciliatory note, admitting much strength in the theory of evolution, and preaching an abundance of caution when discussing the subject. *** An editor’s note on the issue of evolution. This teaching that you are about to listen to was delivered in church during the late fall of 2020. This is why I occasionally talk about the pandemic and the upcoming presidential election. My attitude toward evolution has always been a moving target, and any time I talk about the subject, it is a time capsule of how I felt at the time. By 2020, my attitude toward evolutionary theories had softened, and for the most part, what I said in 2020 represents what I believe in 2025. I have 2 exceptions: (1) I no longer believe in the near absolute absence of transitional fossils in the fossil record. Some people more knowledgeable on the subject than I am have said that there are more examples of transitional fossils than just archaeopteryx, the so-called “missing link.” My current position regarding the lack of transitional fossils is that there probably still is not enough fossil evidence to support a grand, all-encompassing tree of life, but that paleontologists should continue their work, and I may yet be proven wrong. (2) While I still am skeptical of macro-evolutionary theory, my attitude has softened so much that I now consider Evolutionary Creationism to be a completely reasonable position for a Christian to take. End of editor’s note. ***
