Re: Instantaneous Creation or Evolution? Genesis wins.

Ahh, the I prefer to wait for my bishops to make a pronouncement evasion. What are you all waiting for? Do you even know what view your bishop holds regarding Darwinistic evolution? Surely you must know what his thoughts are about the subject? In all the years you have been with him, has it never ...
