Darwinism and Bishop Spong

“The challenge of Darwinian thinking to traditional Christianity is deep and profound. That means that Christianity's survival depends on its being big enough to embrace a post-Darwinian world. If we cannot then Christianity will surely die.”

US Anglican bishop John Shelby Spong commentating in his weekly newsletter (28 September)

TonySeb: Bishop Spong worries that Christianity will die if it doesn’t “embrace a post-Darwinian world”. If Christianity embraces Darwinian evolution and the modern science worldview, shall it not die anyway?
