Question: Were evolutionists wrong in saying that evolution is a guided process. That the random duplications and mishaps of DNA were guided by God? But then that brings up a question: Why didn’t God create everything perfect, because if things change for the better then they weren’t perfect.

The idea that evolution may be part of a guided process of God bringing all things to perfection, is not a new one, nor is it necessarily incompatible with our faith. God did create everything perfect—look in the book of Genesis, the world was a paradise, all animals lived in harmony, and everything was good. But then sin entered the world through the free choices of Adam and Eve and from that point on ALL of creation was fallen. Think about it: would there have been hurricanes in the garden? What about terrorists? People born blind? Everything was perfect, until sin entered the picture. So all creation now seeks to return to that state of perfection and harmony with God. All bad things in the world, whether it be natural disasters, to genetic deformities, is the direct or indirect result of sin and its consequences. As long as we believe that God is the author of all life and that He orders all things, then we can believe the good things that science truthfully tells us. In the end, even science, if it is fact and not theory, reveals to us even more of the goodness of our God.
