Tim,
Because the Bible clearly states that death came because of Adam (Rom
5:12 and I Cor 15:21-22) Walt Brown makes this statement:
"If evolution happened, then death was widespread before man evolved.
But if death preceeded man and was not a result of Adam's sin, then
sin is a fiction. If sin is a fictiion, then we have no need of a
Savior." - Walt Brown (PhD, MIT) "In the Beginning", p200.
He gives 73 points of contention between 'facts' in Theistic
evolution and statements in the Bible. Very interesting.
