What! Most people think God had a hand in the origin of humanity? If you think evolution (chance mutations acted upon by natural selection) is sufficient to explain human life, with no interference from God, you are in the small minority. Surprising, because . . .
Public schools K-12 and beyond have taught for decades and decades that evolution is the total answer to how we got here. But somehow most people are not buying it. How can that be?
It's frustrating to evolutionary scientists and profs and teachers. They think they just need to improve their teaching methods.
Maybe it's something else. Everyone knows that the Bible teaches that mankind is made in God's image. Maybe there's an intuition built into the human mind that can discern God's involvement in creation.
Check out Romans 1 verse 19: “For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their inner consciousness, because God [Himself] has shown it to them.” (Amplified Version)
