@GBrooks9's View On God's Engagement

[swamidass (S. Joshua Swamidass)]

Then I started getting hit with protests about God aiming a ray gun at hominid genitals … in order to get the next mutation…

You should really start sending those BioLogos folk to the conversation here. I hope you link here when appropriate. The water is nice here at Peaceful Science.

@AllenWitmerMiller

As a Molinist, I have a similar reaction.

(I can’t help but wonder what percentage of Christians who are comfortable with evolutionary creationism are Molinist—and even got there through a Molinist route.)

Shockingly, most have never heard of it.

@gbrooks9

But apparently, at BioLogos, I was the first one to actually specify a way for God to “guide” evolution:

“poof” a mutation by miraculously creating a cosmic hit on DNA… or

using natural law to design a chain of events that would send a cosmic ray…

You are not the first, but they are generally speaking not prone to support that view. @TedDavis is an exception, as are others. Some are down right opposed to it.
