It is curious that there is such a furor over evolution, creationism and intelligent design. The mechanism through which we became what we are may have scientific interest, but it in no way diminishes the awe we experience when we seriously contemplate ourselves.
Whether we were created in six days, 6,000 years or 60 million years does not in the least concern me, nor will I lose sleep wondering if humans evolved from primitive cells, monkeys or spontaneously appeared in the Garden of Eden.
We are physical and spiritual entities capable of communicating with one another and endowed with self-awareness, emotions and intelligence. This is all that really matters.
