Brian D. McLaren Quote
As I said before, evolution doesn’t bother me. If you tell me that God created the earth by hand in six days some thousands of years ago, I am impressed. If you tell me instead that God set a whole cosmos in motion some billions of years ago, a cosmos perfectly calibrated within the narrowest of margins to produce at least one planet where life would be developed through cause-effect chains that were designed into it by a purposeful Designer… I am no less impressed; in fact, I may be even more impressed. The how and when of it all seem almost inconsequential to me compared to the what and why which lie beyond cause and effect.
