Comment on Changing the Wording of Adventist Fundamental Belief #6 on Creation by Holly Pham.

The very idea of having “fundamental” beliefs is that they, at least in the SDA Church, are supported by the Bible.

Anyone can have a belief, and it may be “fundamental” but not based on anything except what one WANTS to believe.

Sure, the Church could vote out all the beliefs, but why would it do so? Also, changing the wording will do nothing to change the argument about evolution or anything else. Those that want to believe something else besides what the Bible states will continue to do so.

Changing the Wording of Adventist Fundamental Belief #6 on Creation

Bill Taylor:
By faith you believe in creation and by faith you believe in evolution!!What do you want to place your faith in God or Man?

You are completely correct. Who are we to believe? God? Man’s “wisdom?” Liberals and progressives believe in human wisdom over what God has said.

We see that at La Sierra, very prominently, and they are PROUD of it!

@David Read, Can ET or Advindicate get an interview with somebody who actually knows, first hand, what went on with this AAA accreditation? What “deals” were made and by whom, why, and with what “strings” attached?

@Sean Pitman, I agree with the lack of transparency at LLU and virtually anywhere in our SDA system. The hiding behind closed doors is rampant, not only at LLU, but on the Conference level, Union, and even the GC. Try to ask anybody a really specific question. All you get is either nothing or another set of vague responses. Try it some time, and you will see what I mean.

Any insiders know WHY this happened? Was it part of a “deal” with AAA for accreditation?
