You did good, Charlie!

David Attenborough - there can't be many people in the civilised world who don't know who he is - did a TV programme on Charles Darwin recently. He received hate mail. I don't know what the problem is. I don't see any conflict at all between the Theory of Evolution and a belief in a Divine Creator.
The only conflict is between the theory of evolution and the story of creation as told in the book of Genesis, and that only if you take the story literally, like, literally seven days, literally Eve from Adam's rib, etc.

Leaving that stuff aside, why not have a Divine Creator who established the conditions for evolution to happen, and maybe intervened to make sure the butterflies were really beautiful, etc, geschweige denn the female bosom and red wine? It all makes sense to me.
Also, what the flying fish does it matter anyway? Life is beautiful. Nature is beautiful. "Every prospect pleases, and only man is vile", but you can't blame God for that.
So, if anyone would like to pay me £2000 per lecture plus expenses to explain why it is possible to believe in God AND Darwin, I will be happy to oblige.
And, while we are at it, for half that sum, I will explain how to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in one move as well, though, to be honest, it does involve full frontal lobotomies.
