It is here, I think, that Biblical theology comes most in conflict with macro-evolutionary ideas. There is such a concept as "Theistic Evolution" which essentially claims that there is no necessary contradiction between Biblical theology and Darwinian-type evolution.

Could they be “changed” so that they are no longer created in the image of God?
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  All of his further statements in this paragraph are hinged on the veracity of this speculation.

Homo nexus will never exist! Mankind will never evolve into a higher lifeform! For macro-evolution only takes place in the minds of those who have rejected God!
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  This is a mischaracterization. Macroevolution, or "evolution as a theory of origins", is a different concept than one species changing into another over time.

Cross-breading was attempted in the Bible
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  Referenced here is the (plausible) theory that the Nephilim were angelic crossbreeds. I'm not sure if they were ontologically different from humanity at that point insofar as their relationship to God and his expectations from them are concerned.

  misinterpreation to support the argument. "lionlike men" just means mighty warriors. cf: http://jfb.biblecommenter.com/1_chronicles/11.htm et al

every hand six fingers
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  Six fingered men are post-human? This does not support the argument.

Being converted into a transhuman no longer bearing God's image is the real hazard of re-engineering the human race!
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  "no longer bearing God's image"? So we bear the image of God in our genetic code? Is that it? Is that interpretation even within the pale of orthodoxy? If we lose this image when we "add superhuman capabilities" due to genetic changes, why is it that these images are not lost when genetic mutations naturally occur (eg "genetic disorders")? They both stray from the path of the "image" of the genetic code, supposedly perfect and complete in Adam. I don't buy this argument.

But to give up the physical image is eternally damning, with no chance of salvation!
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  This assertion is a fabrication, and unsubstantiated by scripture.

Noah and his family were spared. Why? They were perfect in their generations (Gen 6:9). They were fully human.
- Adam Skinner on 23 Sep 08
  
  misinterpreation. If Noah was spared because he was "fully human", why weren't the other fully human people on earth spared? Is that really the rationale that scripture gives? I don't think so. "blameless in his generation", "a righteous man" seems a more correct interpretation.

Before joining any sort of activism in the name of science or religion, we decided at Metta-Physics.com to try and understand the basis of this revolution, and this is the summary of what we understood so far.
