Vern Poythress and evolutionary creationism

Now for the sake of argument let us suppose that the mainstream picture of gradualism is true, that is, purely gradual processes produced all living things. That picture is completely compatible with God having done it all for his own purposes.

Vern S. Poythress, “Adam Versus Claims From Genetics,” Westminster Theological Journal 75 (2013), 69.

Poythress includes a footnote referencing the fact that Alvin Plantinga similarly distinguishes between unguided and guided evolutionary processes in his book Where the Conflict Really Lies: Science, Religion, and Naturalism (Oxford University, 2011), 16-17, 39, 55, 63.
