Merci pour la citation de Collins. J'espère que, via le forum, elle parviendra à Julien. C'est lui, je pense, qui en profiterait le plus.
En fouillant un peu sur le Net, j'ai trouvé votre citation à

"As both an active Christian and a prominent biologist, he is perhaps today's leading exponent for the view that there is no conflict between evolutionary biology and the Bible. Collins winces on the word creationism, asserting that "Creationism has done more harm to serious notions of belief than anything in modern history." He maintains that the evidence for natural selection is overwhelming, but that this need not stop anyone from believing that a creator God set the process in motion."

"It appears now that the human genome consists of between 30,000 and 40,000 genes. Consider that it takes 19,099 genes to make the tiny nematode worm, Caenorhabditis elegans. "We're twice a worm," says Collins."

"Francis Collins, director of the Human Genome Project and professing Christian, accentuates the benefits of genetic research and says, "We have caught the first glimpse of our instruction book, previously known only to God."

j'ai trouvé une interview de Francis Collins (parmi d'autres, dont Richard Dawkins et Steven Weinberg). Je n'ai pas tout lu.
Savez-vous si Collins, qui se déclare chrétien, croit que Jésus de Nazareth est réellement "mort et ressuscité". Vous, 7tiques, croyez-vous à ça?
Savez-vous si Collins croit que la Bible est "la Parole de Dieu"? Vous, 7tiques, croyez-vous ça?
Cordialités,
