Just 1 comment & not the most important - but it's wrong to say that Augustine
was "the single most influential guy" for the Eastern Orthodox. A is respected by the
Orthodox as a father of the church but they have problems with some aspects of his
theology (especially on original sin & related issues) & there are other fathers who are
more influential for their theology. & in fact a look at some of those such
as Irenaeus, Athanasius, Gregory of Nyssa, & Basil opens up other ways of understanding
Genesis in accord with evolution in addition to what Augustine contributes.
Shalom,
George
