Evolution and faith clash in Southern Baptist debate
Keathley, an old earth creationist, argues for direct divine intervention at points in history while others support BioLogos. The dialogue explores Adam and Eve, the problem of suffering, and whether God created a world with pain from the start. The exchange has drawn strong, mostly positive responses from Southern Baptists and BioLogos supporters alike.
