Jerry Coyne calls theistic evolution "bastardized hybrid theory"

Amen. And as I have pointed out many times, the bible's creation story actually makes much more sense than the gospel.
. . . . more Americans accept theistic evolution than they do real (i.e., purely naturalistic) evolution: recent polls show that when Americans are asked how they account for the existence of humans, around 50% say that God created us directly, 30% say that we evolved but that God guided this process, and only 15% say that we appeared via unguided evolution.
So if we tell Christians that this is a way to reconcile science with their faith, we have to admit that we’re offering a bogus, nonscientific solution. Theistic evolutionists don’t really accept evolution, at least not the way scientists see it. They’re buying a bastardized hybrid theory that is rejected by virtually all working biologists. Can we really count those 30% of theistic-evolutionist Americans as being on our side?
Amen. And as I have pointed out many times, the bible's creation story actually makes much more sense than the gospel.

Yes, there is no place for apologists or accommodationists. It's either god or not. There is no middle ground.
