Opinion: Spirit of Aggieland complete
Matt McCullar: Renovated MSC reinvigorates Aggie experience
Published: Thursday, April 26, 2012
Updated: Wednesday, July 25, 2012 21:07
I sat in the newly renovated MSC on a warm Sunday afternoon. Although the building was crowded with students former, present and future, there was a familiar tone in the air.
The baby grand was being played as if it never missed a note while students studied for the final exams of the semester in the Flag Room. In my mind, the Memorial Student Center had not closed for three years — it seemed that I was engaging in a tradition that had filled my collegiate life day-in and day-out.
In truth, I had not set foot in the MSC since May 2009. Three years had passed since I set eyes on the cowhide chairs or lazily strolled past the wooden panels.
Without a second thought, my hand removed the cap from my head as I presented myself to the building. As was my custom freshman year, I wandered through the bookstore before beginning the real studying. And although the fringes of the flags, the lights of the chandeliers and the brown of brick never left my mind, my memory returned to an age when I was but a newcomer to Aggieland.
In an instant, I relived watching my family drive away as I masked the fear of being on my own with a high-five to my best friend. I reminisced the days when I knew but a handful of people within a 90-mile radius… 90 miles. There was a time when A&M was a world away from everything I knew and loved.
Again, my mind took a seat in my very first college classroom — which was the wrong one — and once more I had lunch at Sbisa, or united with a group of freshman for a midnight game of capture-the-flag.
If I knew then what the next four years would hold, would it make a difference? Would I believe that I could find the unity and a sense of belonging that I found with Impact? Would I understand the frustrations that would come studying ancient Greek? Could I express to my freshman self what it means to yell the Aggies through both victory and defeat — what it's like to find those quiet corners of campus to call my own, or the feeling of accomplishment and utter pride that comes with slipping on my Fightin' Texas Aggie Ring for the very first time?
There's a spirit here can ne'er be told. As a freshman, I would not have been able to understand how this place could change my life. As a senior, I cannot express how this institution has built me into the man I am today.
I came here ready to be a student at Texas A&M. But with every penny placed at Sully's feet, every 'Here' at Muster, and every backward step taken as a tour guide, that 'I' has slowly been reshaped into the plural.
We are the Aggies. The Aggies are we.
Though the Memorial Student Center is newly opened, newly renovated and newly designed, students enjoy it the same now as the generations of Aggies did during the past six decades. Our individual experiences, memories and stories are as unique as each student that walks across this campus. They are also the individual brush strokes that together paint the masterpiece known as the Spirit of Aggieland.

Pollock, American
Pollock are found on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean but are more numerous and widespread in European than in American waters. They are fished in many places in their range. Pollock reach sexual maturity between three and eight years of age and can live for at least 20 years and grow at moderate rates.
Most commercially fished populations of Pollock are at medium levels of abundance.
Pollock are caught by a variety of gears but most commonly by bottom trawls, which can severely damage the seafloor. Pollock are well managed throughout their range and there appears to be little bycatch associated with Pollock fisheries.

Our Best Burger Recipes
Juicy Lucy Burger [1]
Southside Minneapolis is home to this three-napkin burger famous for its molten cheese center. Both Matt's Bar and the 5-8 Club claim its creation. No matter the lineage, it's burgerlicious.
Our Best-Ever Grilled Burgers [5]
Here's a way to pack traditional burgers with extra flavor. The basic burger is mixed with egg, water, beef bouillon granules, chopped onion, cheese, basil, Worcestershire sauce and spices. An optional mustard sauce adds even more kick.
Greek Burgers [9]
After searing a burger on cast iron (and tasting the crust that develops), you may never grill burgers outside again. We topped ours with herby veggies and feta cheese.
Greek Burgers [10]
Double-Beef Burgers [13]
Irish flavors infuse this burger recipe, which calls for mixing corned beef, cabbage, and caraway seeds into ground beef. Serve with grilled onions and spicy horseradish mustard.
Double-Beef Burgers [14]
Jen's White Burger [17]
This sandwich looks a bit plain, but appearances can be deceiving. It's packed with flavor. Mustard, herbs and lemon zest season the meat, which is topped with wine-poached pears, sharp cheddar and pepper jelly. The recipe comes from Jen Smallwood of Portsmouth, Virginia.
Jen's White Burger [18]
Mini Burger Party Platter [21]
To keep in step with the small-meal trend in restaurants, we created this Mini Burger Party Platter with fun sauces to choose from, including Balsamic Mayo, Herbed Goat Cheese and Citrus Ketchup. You could use this platter for an appetizer or a main dish.
House-Made Burger with Pimiento Cheese [25]
Top burgers with a spoonful of homemade pimiento cheese, or stuff the burgers with cheese before grilling. The recipe also gives an alternative for grinding your own burgers from hanger steaks.
Home on the Range Burger [29]
Our light-as-a-summer-breeze cantaloupe-strawberry relish contrasts with a brawny bison burger full of chopped apple and jerk seasoning. To keep it from getting too cute, we slapped it on Texas toast.
Barbecue-Sauced Burgers [33]
Horseradish mustard adds a kick to grilled burgers, while barbecue sauce and white Cheddar cheese create a flavorful topping combo.
Starker's Bacon and Cheese Curd Burger [37]
Sugared bacon and melting cheese curds or string cheese make a mouthwatering filling for these behemoth burgers. The recipe comes from chef/owner John McClure of Starker's Restaurant at Country Club Plaza in Kansas City.
Burgers with Blue Cheese and Vidalia Onions [41]
Blue cheese and cream cheese join with so-sweet onions for a delicious burger topper. The cheese-onion combo also tastes great topping grilled steaks or chicken.
Creole Carnival Burgers [45]
These spicy, stuffed grilled burgers get a kick from Cajun seasoning, onion, green pepper and Monterey Jack cheese. The recipe comes from an Illinois reader who served them at a Louisiana-style Mardi Gras gathering.
Grilled Herb Burgers [49]
Combine lean ground beef and ground turkey with fresh herbs, chopped onion and Parmesan cheese for this fresh-tasting burger.
Grilled Herb Burgers [50]
Extreme Fusion Burger [53]
Bold meets bold in this grilled pork burger. The ingredients (pesto, lemon pepper, peanut butter, chipotle) shouldn't taste good together, but trust us. It works. Leftover sauce goes great with chicken, too.
Casablanca Burgers [57]
To create a Moroccan twist on burgers, stir chopped apricots, toasted pine nuts, cilantro, cumin and other spices into ground beef, then serve with spiced ketchup.
Casablanca Burgers [58]
Burger Bonanza [61]
Fiesta Filling, Greek Filling or Mediterranean Filling makes these juicy burgers a bonanza of flavors. Form the burgers into patties and make the fillings the night before. The next day, put the two together right before you're ready to grill.
Burger Bonanza [62]
Chuckwagon Goat Cheese Burgers with Onion Jam [65]
Homemade Onion Jam and goat cheese make these juicy burgers extraordinary. You can fix the Onion Jam up to two days ahead.
Cranberry-Stuffed Chicken Burgers [69]
These burgers hold a surprise inside: a melty cheese-cranberry center.
Fire and Spice Beef Burgers [73]
For an upscale twist on a Midwest favorite, add East Indian-influenced spices such as cinnamon and coriander to hamburger. Then instead of the traditional ketchup and mustard, brush the burger with sweet/hot pepper jelly. Serve in pita bread instead of a bun.
Bison-Zucchini Burgers [77]
We created this burger in honor of South Dakota, the largest producer of bison in the nation. Pita bread holds the moist, tender burger, and it's topped with a cabbage slaw tossed with Thousand Island dressing. You can use lean ground beef if you don't have ground bison.
Veggie Burgers [81]
These meatless burgers team up barley, brown rice and lentils with nuts and herbs for a healthy, flavorful sandwich.
Other meatless options include our Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burger and Grilled Tomato Burger with Herbed Cream Cheese.
Portobellos are a natural choice for meatless sandwiches; they are large and moist, and stay juicy even after cooking. The tomato burger gets a boost of flavor from cream cheese mixed with fresh basil, chives and garlic. A grill basket makes it easier to cook the sliced tomatoes.

Grilled Portobello Mushroom Burger [83]
Hamburger Steak Sliders [87]
Designed for a party, our Hamburger Steak Sliders recipe makes 12 appetizer-size servings. Serve with assorted spreads and toppers to let guests build their own burgers.
Hot Dog-Hamburger Secret Sauce [91]
This sauce, delicious for both hamburgers and hot dogs, comes from Joan Wagner of Overland Park, Kansas. The recipe combines green tomatoes, apples, onion, sugar and vinegar. "My two sons, Chris and Ken, gave this recipe the name 'secret sauce' because no one guessed what was in it," Joan says. It's a nice balance of sweet and tangy.
You could also try burgers with the Cranberry-Orange Relish pictured here, a versatile spiced topper that goes well with grilled meats such as bratwurst and pork chops.

JMU improved its overall record to 15-7 and its CAA mark to 9-1. The Dukes, who won for the 12th time in their last 13 games, held on to second place in the league standings. JMU hosts #20/23-ranked and defending CAA champion Delaware, which is in first place with a perfect 10-0 record, on Sunday (Feb. 10).
UNCW dropped its eighth straight and fell to 2-19 overall and 1-9 in league play.
JMU senior guard Tarik Hislop (Silver Spring, Md./Paint Branch) scored a game-high 19 points and in doing so moved from sixth to fifth on the Dukes' career scoring list with 1,615 points. She's only two points away from sole possession of fourth place.
Freshman guard Precious Hall (Tallahassee, Fla./Maclay) scored 15 points and handed out a game-high four assists, and junior guard Kirby Burkholder (Bridgewater, Va./Turner Ashby) added 10 points.
Dukes redshirt freshman guard Jazmon Gwathmey (Bealeton, Va./Liberty) led all players with nine rebounds, one below her career high. Freshman forward Destiny Jones (Miramar, Fla./Archbishop McCarthy) finished with eight points and six rebounds.
UNCW was led in scoring by freshman guard Dana Brown (Willow Springs, N.C./Enloe) with nine. Senior forward Karneshia Garrett (Hoover, Ala./Hoover) scored eight points and had a team-high six rebounds.
UNCW led for the first six minutes and was up 10-6 with 13:53 left in the opening half. Redshirt junior guard Jessica Freeman (Charlotte, N.C./West Charlotte) hit two 3-pointers to help the Seahawks get out to the early advantage.
But the Dukes ran off 13 straight points, with five players contributing, to take a 17-10 lead with 11:17 on the clock. JMU pushed its lead to 14 points, 33-19, at halftime, and the Seahawks got no closer the rest of the way.
* Tarik Hislop (1,615 points) passed Holly Rilinger (1,607, JMU '97) on the career scoring list. She moved from sixth to fifth place. Just ahead of Hislop is Lesley Dickinson (1,616, JMU '07) with 1,616 points.
* Hislop tied the JMU record for career starts with 125. She shares the mark with Tamera Young ('08).
* Three-point ace Kirby Burkholder was fouled shooting a 3-pointer and made all three of the ensuing free throws. She's a perfect 18-18 from the line when fouled shooting a 3.

Spring 2012: Alberta Ferretti
Getty Images View Gallery
(MILAN) Alberta Ferretti
Alberta Ferretti echoed the tropical storm seen stomping down the runways in New York and London—and she didn't stop there. The seasoned designer showcased an amalgamation of Spring trends from sheer cutouts to Jazz Age fringe in a cohesive urban jungle lineup. Opening the show was a fluttery white day dress with peek-a-boo geometric cutouts that got repeated on coral suiting and hot pink shifts, growing more complex and tribal as the show progressed. Heat-wave prints, like muted palm-fronds or psychedelic floral, held their own on easy separates. However, it was the quietly impressive hippie-deluxe chiffon eveningwear, with souped-up crochet and hand-beading, that stole the show—a testament to Ferretti's ultra-femme touch.

HEROIN: No Longer Somewhere Else
Tom C March 3, 2014 at 12:10 pm
@Roger you continue to ignore the evidence of a disease. I posted the definition of addiction as…Read More did @Kaos8, from a .gov website. Does your own medical training provide a different opinion or is it your lack of willingness to open your mind to real research? I spoke about starting in the addiction--with legal substances such as beer and wine--and I'll give you one more example; if you had a severe peanut allergy and didn't know it and as a five year old child ate a PBJ sandwich and died were you a fool or did you not know you had that allergy until you first consumed peanuts? With that the "starting" horse has been beaten to death and if you don't understand I'd suggest you pray for the understanding you lack. The book "Alcoholics Anonymous" was written in 1939 and in that book there is a section called "the doctor's opinion" and alcoholism is clearly defined at that point in time--75 years ago--as a disease. So I don't know your age but for me 75 years is not "relatively new," as I wasn't even a glimmer in somebody's eye at that point. You have your opinion and you clearly are not going to allow that opinion to be changed by medical terminology or research. I don't need to "sell" anything as I have no financial stake in the game and those that really care about addiction, for whatever reason, can get educated far better than on this discussion board. @Kaos8 provided some websites to both learn and to seek help if required. AA, NA, AlAnon, and NarAnon are all free...they'll even give you a cup of coffee to enjoy while you're getting educated. I wish you the best in your journey
Kaos8 March 3, 2014 at 01:01 pm
@ Tom C - Thanks for the Kudos. I do see the frustration many have. Me personally have been in 2…Read More of the 3 situations- when it comes to addicts. I have a close family member that died due to drugs (while not from an overdose but while being greatly impaired due to drugs in a motor vehicle accident/heavy machinery). The 2nd part being robbed 2x (1 of them being at great expense out of pocket- other was a camper battery (under $100)) all for heroin money. So, I can see the frustration many parties on this forum have. I also have had experience working w/ law enforcement- and anyone in that field will tell you it is frustrating and dangerous when you are dealing with someone on drugs, many of them frequent flyers. SO the impact is great on soo may people, who may not even know these addicts. Everyone is going to have a different opinion, depending on how an addict has affected their life. Some are out money/valuables, etc- from robberies. Others have a family member who may be an addict. Then there are service people (Police/EMS/Fire/Doctors/Nurses, etc) who see these people at their ups and down and have to help or deal with them. So no matter what facts are put on this message forum- people are going to have their own experience to draw their opinions from. No one should have to pay for someone else's mistakes (monetary or figuratively)... So, yes there is animosity, even on my stance, being robbed for drug money- money I will never get back and had to pay out of my own pocket- for a drug addict, I don't even know. None of their family members came forward to pay their debt.. And as far as I know the one set of robberies- got about $280k in stealing copper out of many houses. No restitution- was told it would be like getting "blood from a stone".. So, I can see the anger many people have... The monetary statistic -per the US Gov't, is sickening how much money is stolen and/or used for purchase of said substances in the United States every year by Substance Ubusers.. As a family member/loved one of an Addict- you are never going to make everyone believe it is just a disease - until money is taken out of the picture. So pretty much, unless you are going to "pay" for your loved one's mistakes- you are never going to change everyone's mind. Unfortunately, as is the way of the USA. There is no easy way out of this drug nightmare in the US. *****My congrats to anyone out there who is trying to better themselves out of Addiction, it is a long and very uphill, forever, battle. I hope you win.**** This was my 5 cents worth, and now I am done on the topic.
Roger March 4, 2014 at 01:45 pm
There is nothing in these posts to advance the cause of addiction being a disease. Citing…Read More government reports does not work. It is the government that wants to fund causes for disease. They are the ones who recently classified addiction as a disease, so that government money would flow toward these projects, as if to help. The government reports clearly have a "dog in the fight." Having somebody call it a disease 75 years ago means little, because it had no support, until the government wanted to step into the picture. [p] I see the question of "first step" remains unanswered with the disease explanation. I see the addictions other than drugs remains without comment - how to call a sex addiction a disease. [p] None of my concerns are to minimize the horrendous impact drugs has upon a family, and society as a whole. As commented earler, drug addiction has become a scourge across our land. [p] Which raises the next question: If addiction is a disease, then why has it spread? This article would never have been written, except to point out how addiction has spread to areas outside the urban community. Since this be the case, why did the disease spread from one community to another? What factors were at work to cause the disease to cross geographical boundaries with such abandon? [p] I continue to wonder why so much talk about remedial practices for the addict, and virtually nothing about prevention. Yes, I've heard the "education" stories. But, what are they about? Their focus is on the physical effects, and what happens to the addict. Does this help? Perhaps in some small way, but even those impacted would agree that education was ineffective, at least the kind of education being espoused. Why is there so little addressed to the root core of the problem, to prevent "first step?" Why are people so afraid to go here? [p] The last post speaks of those "who is trying to better themselves." This statement is revealing. It tells us that some remain convinced they can do life on their own, attempting to better themselves. Sorry, it is not going to happen. It has not in the past, no reason to think it will work now, or in the future.

It starts with the lights. The Clippers never dim the Staples Center lights, allowing their shrieking crowd to become one with their soaring team. The Lakers darken the arena as if they are performing in a nightclub, the Clippers act like they are playing Coachella.
It continues with the court, which squeaks and thumps and rumbles when the Clippers are covering it with the sort of effort that sends Blake Griffin sweat spitting into the stands.
When the Lakers play, with the exception of a few hard Kobe Bryant breaths, this same court is quiet. When occupied by the Clippers, it absolutely screams.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Then there is the bench, where, on Tuesday night against Oklahoma City, the Clippers' best player was standing and directing like a coach, Chris Paul hobbled but not silenced. He was joined by a gesturing Ronny Turiaf, a preaching Chauncey Billups, a towel-waving Lamar Odom, everyone involved, everyone buying in. The Lakers bench may have a cheerleading Robert Sacre, but the Clippers have a half dozen of him.
It ends on the scoreboard, where, on Tuesday, the Clippers felt the pain of Paul's injured knee in losing, 109-97 to the Thunder. But the scoreboard has produced standings that made this the battle of the NBA's two best teams. And after the first half of the most upside-down season in this town's NBA history, the scoreboard has helped provide the Clippers with a moniker they once loathed, but should now love.
They are the anti-Lakers. And, for once, that is a very good thing.
Watching the weary, undermanned Clippers battle for every inch of Tuesday night against the rested Thunder was a stark contrast to watching the Lakers the previous night in Chicago … or two days earlier in Toronto … or wherever, whenever in this odd winter.
It's not just that the Clippers have a legitimate chance to be playing these Thunder for the Western Conference championship in May and the Lakers already appear cooked. It's that the Clippers are performing with a level of dignified and spirited effort that the Lakers have long since surrendered.
It's how the Clippers are doing it.
It's how Blake Griffin showed up Tuesday night knowing he had to carry the team in Paul's absence, and so he did, beginning with one first-quarter possession in which he missed a runner, grabbed the rebound, missed a tip, grabbed another rebound and finally scored. He finished with 31 points, 11 rebounds and nine of 10 free throws. Hmmm, imagine, a big man unafraid to work on his foul shooting.
It's how the Clippers are working it.
It's how Eric Bledsoe was given Paul's starting spot and struggled with his shot but not his hustle. It's how Lamar Odom is finally finding himself from the bench, eight points and seven rebounds in 10 minutes. It's how the Clippers were repeatedly devastated by the eight combined three-pointers from Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, yet continually fought to stay in the game, whittling a 17-point deficit down to eight points with 1:20 remaining.
At that point, even though they were headed for certain defeat, they were still given a standing ovation by a crowd that wouldn't go home.
The only other more inspirational sound of the night was no sound at all, when a trampoline dunking team took the court during the first quarter break. All these acrobatic slams, and the crowd barely broke a yawn. When you come to a Clippers game, you don't need fabricated thrills. What they give you is real.
"They are legitimate, very legitimate," said the Thunder's Kendrick Perkins. "They're deep, they have a great leader, they have an underrated coach.… They are a force to be reckoned with."
Funny thing about that coach. During the summer, Vinny Del Negro was supposed to be in more trouble than the Lakers' Mike Brown.
Yet when Clippers owner Donald Sterling decided to stick with him, well, he stuck with him.
Could it actually be that Clippers ownership has been more smart and sound than Lakers ownership this season? Actually, yes. And it hasn't been close. Right now, would you want your favorite NBA team run by Donald Sterling or Jimmy Buss? The fact that it's even a legitimate question is an answer.
Late Tuesday, given a chance to make excuses with the loss of Paul, Del Negro offered none.
"Obviously, we didn't have our general out there, but that's no excuse, we still have plenty of guys," said Del Negro.
They have plenty of guys indeed, with plenty of energy and production and promise, plenty of guys who will be playing long after their roommates down the hall have turned off the lights not only in the stands, but also on the court.
It's like its says on the back of the bottom shirt worn Tuesday night by the Clipper Stripper.
"We run L.A."
Like something we've seen before, from someone we used to know.

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue
This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.

This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
Scientists have found multiple lines of evidence for evolution, not just one or two. These types of evidence are independent of each other, coming from sources as different as ancient fossils and modern genetics labs. Evidence also comes from comparing the anatomy of creatures living today. All creatures with four limbs (whether mammals, birds, or reptiles) have the same bone structure in each limb, pointing to their descent from a common ancestor. More evidence comes from biogeography. Isolated islands are missing common species found on the mainland, but are filled with many unique species that can be related by a common ancestor. Finally, evidence comes from embryonic development. As an embryo of a mammal grows, its heart develops through stages similar to fish, amphibians, and reptiles. God's creation declares the history of life in many different ways. All these ways are pointing to a consistent picture of God creating through evolution.
In recent decades, scientists have discovered more about the beginnings of humanity. The fossil record shows a gradual transition over 5 million years ago from chimpanzee-size creatures to hominids with larger brains who walked on two legs. Later hominids used fire and stone tools and had brains as large as modern humans. Fossils of homo sapiens in east Africa date back nearly 200,000 years. Humans developed hearths for fire, stone points for spears and arrows, and cave paintings by 30,000 years ago. By 10,000 years ago, humans had spread throughout the globe. Genetic studies support the same picture. Humans share more DNA with chimpanzees than with any other animal, suggesting that humans and chimps share a relatively recent common ancestor. Also, the same defective genes appear in both humans and chimps, at the same locations in the genome—an observation difficult to explain except by common ancestry. Genetics also tells us that the human population today descended from more than two people. Evolution happens not to individuals but to populations, and the amount of genetic diversity in the gene pool today suggests that the human population was never smaller than several thousand individuals. Yet all humans, of all races, are descended from this group. Humanity is one family.
Original sin often refers simply to the current state of humanity, in that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). Evolution does not raise questions about our current state of sinfulness. It does, however, raise questions about how and when the first sin occurred, and how this fallen state was transmitted to all people. The sciences of evolution and archaeology can provide some insight into these questions but are not equipped to answer them. These questions are theological, and over the centuries the church has considered many possible answers. Some of these options are consistent with the scientific evidence currently available.
In recent decades, evangelical Biblical scholars have reconsidered non-literal interpretations of Genesis. The Accommodation view of St. Augustine and John Calvin is supported by recent discoveries about ancient cultures. Literature from these cultures shows interesting parallels and differences with Genesis accounts. The differences are striking, such as stories where creation is a battle among many gods rather than the acts of one sovereign Creator. The similarities, however, show how God accommodated his message so that the Israelites could understand it. For example, the Egyptians and Babylonians thought the sky was a solid dome. This solid dome appears in Genesis 1 as the firmament created on day 2. God did not try to correct the "science" of the Israelites by explaining that the sky was a gaseous atmosphere. Instead, God accommodated his message to their cultural context. Many evangelical Biblical scholars have concluded that Genesis is not meant to teach scientific information.
One way to resolve the apparent conflict between the Bible and science is to say that the world merely looks old. Perhaps God created it 6,000 years ago, but made it look millions and billions of years old. While God certainly has it in his power to do this, this view raises a theological challenge for the Christian: it makes God out to be a deceiver. It would have God revealing things in the universe that are contrary to what he reveals in the Bible. The lie would be not just in a few places, but embedded in galaxies, in stars, in rocks and fossils, and in our very DNA. If we trust that "The heavens declare the glory of God", we have to trust that they truthfully declare the history by which God made them.
Darwin developed his theory of evolution by looking at scientific evidence available in the mid-1800s. Since then, the whole field of genetics has developed, adding a powerful independent line of evidence in support of evolution. Genes show how the physical traits of living things are handed down and modified from one generation to the next. By comparing the DNA of many organisms, scientists can map the relationships between species. This map is in remarkable agreement with Darwin's predictions. The structure of chromosomes and particular genetic sequences point to the conclusion not just of common design, but common descent as well.
Because evolution is a challenging subject, many Christians are tempted to simply ignore or reject it. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and with our relationships with other people—believers and non-Christians alike. First, Christians should study evolution because (like all the natural sciences) it is the study of God's creation. Creation itself is a complementary revelation to what is communicated in the Scriptures, and through it God shows how and when he brought about life, to his honor and glory. Studying the creation is also an invitation into a deeper understanding of the attributes and character of Father, Son and Spirit. Second, considering evolutionary creation aids the Church in its gospel mission, supporting young Christians in their faith, helping answer critics, and equipping us to engage effectively in the wider culture. An anti-evolution attitude can harm Christian young people by presenting them with a false choice between pursuing science OR holding to faith. Similarly, a hostile attitude towards evolution can hinder evangelism when seekers hear that they must reject science to follow Christ. On the other hand, studying evolution as a God-ordained process helps Christians refute arguments that science encourages an atheistic worldview. Furthermore, as the church engages front-page issues raised by the rapid growth in science, medicine, and technology, a Christ-centered voice in such areas as bioethics will be stronger if based on a thorough understanding of the natural sciences, including evolution.
(Updated on September 9, 2012)
This chapter from Mark Noll's book Jesus Christ and the Life of the Mind seeks to understand science through a Christ-centered lens. Overall, if one accepts that nature is created and sustained by Jesus Christ, the author explains, then one must conclude that looking at nature is, in fact, the best way to learn about nature.
In this essay, Godawa argues that the decreation language of a collapsing universe with falling stars and signs in the heavens was actually symbolic discourse about world-changing events and powers related to the end of the old covenant and the coming of the new covenant as God's "new world order." In this interpretation, predictions of the collapsing universe were figuratively fulfilled in the historic past of the first century.
In this paper, Venema tells the story of his transition from support of Intelligent Design to the view that God uses evolution as a creative mechanism.
Brian Godawa looks at several aspects of ancient cosmography (descriptions of the universe) that also appear in the Bible, and what these aspects of the text mean for our understanding of Scripture.
In this essay, Hastings looks at "front edge" areas for promoting healthy dialogue in the field of science and Christian theology, areas which are specifically theological in nature.
This article is a comprehensive study of the views of Christian author and apologist C. S. Lewis on the theory of evolution and the argument from intelligent design. It explains how he would distinguish expressly philosophical arguments for a Transcendent Mind from the current claims of the intelligent design (ID) movement to provide scientific evidence for such a reality.
In this paper, adapted from an article from Science & Christian Belief, Dr. Oliver R. Barclay compares and contrasts the biblical view of design in nature with modern design arguments.
In this paper, Venema explores several examples in biology where random mutation and natural selection have indeed led to substantial increases in biological information. The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an "enigma", is one of great interest to biologists.
In this paper, MIT professor Ian Hutchinson addresses the question of how to engage arguments put forward by the New Atheists. In doing so, he offers a critique of scientism, the assumption that scientific knowledge is all the real knowledge there is.
Philosopher Robert Bishop explores the Biblical doctrine of creation, which he describes as "perhaps one of the most helpful pieces of theology for thinking about science", and describes why the doctrine needs to be recovered from narrower, contemporary interpretations of creation.
Hastings provides a biblical and theological basis for healthy and fruitful dialogue on the theology and science of origins.
In this paper, theologian John Wesley Wright reviews Connor Cunningham's book Darwin's Pious Idea, a work that deeply explores the integration of Darwinian evolutionary theory and Christian faith.
