FARMS
Not sure what got me thinking about it but did a search on F.A.R.M.S.
Came across an article by Hugh W. Nibley, what an intelligent man. I think when I study what he writes I need to pray for understanding.
His article was what about the "people" who came before Adam. I was just skimming the writing so it took a little to realize he was talking about evolution. In the brief moment I was hit by a couple of his statements.
"If unused, organs atrophy, we are losing rather than gaining brain power"
If we were to build a university (earth) we wouldn't gather the stupid, ignorant and wait for them to evolve.
Moses 1:31. I'll need to look that up to get it right, but Elder Nibley was speaking about the "human-like" creatures who have come before us.
Some scientist have a problem going from A to B in evolution. Many have come up with the end results and will fill in the holes. (go back and read so I can clarify)
When I look at a monkey or guriella I see an animal who has a place in this world. Who was created for a purpose. However I have never felt a kinship no matter how close our DNA is.
I forgot how much fun it was to read things other than novels. I thank God for people who are intelligent and yet write with the Spirit. There is not only beauty in the physical creations but also beauty in spiritual influenced writing and music.
More later I am sure
