The Bearing Of The Theory Of Evolution Upon The Chrisitian Doctrine Of Man, Theodore Martin

Bachelor of Divinity

Evolution is an attempt to explain present conditions. In reality it consists of a number of explanatory attempts, none of which are satisfactory. All involve change, a development of the simple into the complex. Evolution has been defined as a "change due to circumstances,” but this is only a part of the story. As it is generally understood, evolution means much more than this. It means a development in matter resulting from the action or forces resident in matter itself.
