Harvard University Evolution Theory and Origin of Man Reflection Paper
Question Description
Request:
Please write a 1-2 page blog article with your reflections on these articles.Briefly address: a) some of the scientific evidence presented that is inconsistent with all of humanity descending from only one couple; b) some of the theological issues that arise from assuming that Genesis is not talking about a real Adam and Eve couple who were the first human beings; and c) your questions and concerns regarding this question.Please focus on the academic issues, not your emotional responses in your reflections.Please too avoid a polemic response, but be lovingly truthful.
This assignment is different from the journal reflections which I have asked you to write for this course in that the journals reflected more of your feelings about a topic, while this blog article is to be more academic or intellectual.
