Creation vs. Evolution?

Tuesday, September 11

A few weeks ago I taught on what I believe concerning the evolution/creation debate. The issue became a hot topic months ago when in a recent Presidential debate the ten Republican candidates on the stage were asked who didn't believe in evolution. Three hands were raised.

The next day talk show host Joy Behar from The View tore into the candidates saying, "That's so retro. It boggles my mind that in the 21st century we have three people who can look at the overwhelming scientific evidence for evolution, ignore it, and still run for the highest office in the land."

Everyone saw the TV clip of the three candidates raising their hands, but few ever saw Governor Mike Huckabee's response in a later debate. When I spoke a few weeks ago I played the following clip at the end of my message. I thought it was a humble, thoughtful and articulate way to respond to critics when they make fun of the idea that God created human beings. Take a look:
