Is it possible to be a Christian and an evolutionist?
Gish, DT. 1989.  CEN 11(4):21-23. CELD ID 11353

Abstract
At a debate at Westminster Chapel in 1987 between the Creation Science Movement and paleontologists from the British Museum of Natural History, a member of the audience asked me the question which is the title of this article. I stated that although I believed it was both bad science and bad theology for a Christian to be an evolutionist, it was possible to be both. At the conclusion of the debate, several Christians in the audience spoke to me privately, questioning whether it is possible for a Christian to be an evolutionist.
