One thought on “Restating the fact in dignified language?”
“He who believes … will say, … but this seems to me…”
I can’t imagine what meaning you get out of the words, but my interpretation goes something like this.
“If you are foolish enough to believe in a creator you could describe evolution in those terms but I wouldn’t.”
But the long and short of it is that words can be interpreted and religions are transmitted through words and they inevitably mean different things to different people, sects, etc. I can see that if people nominally of the same religion believe different things, then they are not of the same religion.
