RE: [asa] Advice for conversing with YECs - attn Moorad

I do agree that theological or metaphysical questions have to be raised since many of us do believe that telling us how man evolved from lower forms of animals does not the us anything whatsoever who man is. The latter is answered only on theological grounds. Accordingly, non-theistic evolutionary theory is incomplete.

None.

I assumed your question was: What questions does the TE (EC) position
create that can't be answered by non-theistic evolutionary theory?

'scientific' questions are answered by science.

EC's distinctives are that it recognizes the place of science inside a
larger theological context. The theological questions EC raises can't
be answered by science at all.
