No Contradiction
Jonathan Dudley, an evangelical Christian, is a student at the Yale Divinity School and a molecular oncology researcher at Yale School of Medicine.
Dudley believes the "scientific truth of macroevolution can be reconciled with the biblical story of creation" if Genesis isn't read literally.
"Science," Dudley writes, "requires Christians to interpret the creation story differently."
"God still created the universe, including all biological life," he believes. "But God created biological life via the process of evolution."
Another example that for many Christians, even some evangelicals, there's no contradiction between science and faith.
