Evolving with time is a christian thing to do? The thing about progress is it's all in the mind of the believer. Every individual has their own idea about what progress is. Likewise every generation also has their own idea about what progress is. But the truth is that every individual and every generation must start from the beginning. The progress that other individuals have made does nothing for the individual. Should future generations not have to grow closer to God the same as previous ones? Should they just be born with a higher status?
