Science or Faith

Creation and EvolutionSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg presents a thoughtful examination of the origins debate, focusing on the interplay between science and faith. He argues that while scientific evidence supports evolution within certain boundaries, the existence of distinct species boundaries and the intricate complexity of life suggest the involvement of an intelligent designer. Gregg acknowledges the philosophical preferences that shape scientific exploration and highlights the role of faith in both evolutionary and creationist perspectives. He concludes that the acceptance of evidence, rather than dogma, should guide the pursuit of satisfactory explanations for observed phenomena.
