I HAVE been reading with some amusement the correspondence between creationists and evolutionists and find difficulty in understanding the attitude of the creationists.
They are quite prepared to accept without proof the existence of an all-powerful, self-created, supreme being yet rule that the natural development of the eye as being impossible and irrational.
Perhaps the Rev Kevin Logan would explain something that eludes me; why does this 'supreme being' need mankind and why does it need mankind's constant praise and adoration? Is it that without mankind's acknowledgement it would cease to exist?
Perhaps also the evolutionists could explain their assumption that man is descended from apes. Could it not be equally assumed that apes descended from man? After all, the average ape seems far more advanced socially than man.
