Creation spirituality posits

Creation spirituality posits, at its base, a God who cares deeply about creation and loves each creature. Can one have a nature-based spirituality without an idea of a deity or higher power? Using Rohlheiser, what might a nature-based spirituality-- without a deity-- look like? The two creation stories admit the possibility of a long period preceding the creation of human beings. Perhaps this refers to evolution or the evolutionary process. If so, is there something still special and unique that theology can say about the creation of women and men? If we concur with the truth of evolution, how are human beings “created by God?” Can one be a creationist and an evolutionist in theory? Or, are these two contradictory truths that cannot be reconciled? What is the relationship between the theology of original blessing and the doctrine of original sin? How should the church or contemporary Christians understand these important doctrines of the historic faith in light of modernity?
