Bush Says Creation 'Not Incompatible' With Evolution

FoxNews writes:WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush said his belief that God created the world is not incompatible with the scientific theory of evolution.In an interview with ABC's "Nightline" on Monday, the president also said he probably is not a literalist when reading the Bible although an individual can learn a great deal from it, including the New Testament teaching that God sent his only son.Asked about creation and evolution, Bush said: "I think you can have both. I think evolution can -- you're getting me way out of my lane here. I'm just a simple president. But it's, I think that God created the earth, created the world; I think the creation of the world is so mysterious it requires something as large as an almighty and I don't think it's incompatible with the scientific proof that there is evolution."He added, "I happen to believe that evolution doesn't fully explain the mystery of life."
