            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.
