  The Bible explains it one way. Darwin explains it another way.

  But members of the United Church of Hayward on Mission Boulevard say religion and science don’t conflict when it comes to our origins. That was the theme of Sunday morning’s service, in celebration of Charles Darwin’s 197th birthday.

  “That’s something most Christians struggle with as we all develop our own personal relationship with God,” said church member Roger McCluney, who lives in Hayward. “The Bible is 2,000 years old and we still can’t get it right because we are always interpreting it.”
