Re: About Me
Hi Practical Prodigy and welcome to EvC Forum.
What I dispute is the fact that one genus of organism can change into another.
Okay.
I would not fit into any version of creationism due to my belief in convergence, speciation, etc.
Okay now I'm confused. You say that evolution cannot create new genera. You also imply that you would not invoke divine creation to explain the existence of genera.
So... where did the genera come from?
I also only believe in a allagory translation of Genesis, not literal which would also put me in the theistic evolutionist camp.
No. If you do not believe that evolution can cause change above species level, you do not accept the Theory of Evolution, as it is currently understood. That doesn't make you any kind of evolutionist, theistic or otherwise. It makes you an evolution denier of some stripe.
