Religious faith isn't necessarily incompatible w/ evolution, but faith of the the sort that holds everything in the Bible to be literally true--that kind of faith is. It seems to me an insupportable belief, but if you do believe it, you have to deny evolution or your head explodes. Also, God as the ground of being or the universe as God's art project snuggles up comfortably with evolution and modern cosmology. But when you've got a God whose main concern is the creation of us humans and the regulation of our lives, the vastness of the universe beyond our tiny speckappears suspiciously superfluous.https://www.facebook.com/NPR/posts/229330380483493
