Posted: Sunday, 11 February 2007 12:00PM SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) -- Coinciding with Charles Darwin’s birthday, hundreds of churches across the nation are taking part in “Evolution Sunday,” a day to recognize the connections between religion and Darwin’s theory of evolution.
"Evolution Sunday is a day to celebrate the compatibility of science and religion, to recognize that evolution has no incompatibility with the Christian faith," said Reverend Jim Burklo of Sausalito Presbyterian Church.
The day is intended to let people know they don’t have to choose between one or the other. But Burklo suggests the public has a long way to go in learning about the subject.
