Re: [asa] Almost Half of Evangelical Theologians Accept Evolution?

I am not at all surprised by this survey's results. It has been my
perception that evangelical theologians - particularly Hebrew and Old
Testament Scholars - has been increasingly outspoken that there is no
necessary conflict between evolutionary science and a faithful reading of
scripture. This is true of theologians who have personal reservations or
doubts about the validity of biological evolution (particularly as it
concerns humans) - Henri Blocher and J.I. Packer come to mind here.
However, once it is recognized that scripture does not demand a rejection of
biological evolution, then that person is open to persuasion by the
scientific evidence.
