very quickly barriers are put up

English to Spanish Art/Literary Religion A book about the Creation/evolution debate
There is no doubt that one of the major stumbling blocks is concerning origins. In the University where I work, if one raises the matter of the Christian faith, ***very quickly barriers are put up*** based on evolutionary ideas. Whether staff or students, in arts or science departments, the notion that evolution is a ‘fact’ and that the world has been here for billions of years is soon brought into a conversation. The cleverness of the enemy can be seen by a vagueness in peoples’ minds as to where we have come from, and removes any sense of responsibility for a recent rebellion of man against God only a few thousand years ago.
