Proposal for Presentation
Students crave an environment where questions are welcomed and where all theories are thoroughly explored. There seems to be a hesitancy to review theories that may be opposed to one’s belief. The common approach is to focus only on what Scripture teaches and then to focus exclusively on the weaknesses of a theory like evolution. The challenge is that when students do discover arguments for evolution, they may conclude that their education was incomplete, some abandon their faith. The surprising results of a 3-year study found that a thorough study of evolution does not destroy faith in God.
