[HIFW] My grandma saying god guided evolution

that's more reasonnable then strict biblical creationnism. Good for her

No, because there was no evidence that it was guided. The only possible position then would be that a god set the world in motion, but that kind of god is indistinguishable from one that doesn't exist.

It's a half-step towards rational thought.

Just to clear this up, My grandma has no proof of this. She only believes in "god guided evolution" because the catholic church does. Before the catholic church supported this she was a creationist. Where I live there are very few christians that are similar to those that live in the southern united states so to me this is kind of flabbergasting.

TL;DNR: My grandma hops on the Catholicism band wagon and throws reason out the window.
