Let's be clear. Charles Hodge in his Systematic Theology (c1870)makes it
clear that he holds firmly to an old earth and in What is Darwinism (1874)
is prepared to accept that evolution could have happened and that there is
no theological objection to this though there is to evolution by natural
selection.
AA Hodge in the 1880s argued for theisitic evolution as did Warfield up to
his death in 1921.
As Rich Blinne made it clear that the PCA insists on a six day creation then
they would regard these Princeton theologians as very dodgy - either
apostate or on theway or even wooly liberals like bishop spong. Due to their
compromising with the evolutionary geological timescale their orthodoxy is
clearly under question as any good YEC would agree with.
I hope my point is clear.
To describe this trio as " orthodox Presbyterians" implies that their
blatant evolutionism is orthodox as well.

Are you saying this "tongue in cheek"?
Hodge, Hodge and Warfield were orthodox Presbyterians teaching at Princeton
Theological Seminary a century ago. No discussion of American Protestant
Christian Fundamentalism would be complete without mentioning their names.

I always thought Charles Hodge, A.A Hodge and B.b.Warfield were heretics of
the first order. Did the beleive in God or did they even accept the
authority of the bible let alone inerrancy?
