Uhm....
So, it would appear you're now taking figuritive language literaly.
There were no 'Explosions'.
New life was, indeed, created. Though through the process of pairs of existing life rubbing themselves together in a very special way of which the outcome was a 'New', smaller, younger, not quite identical to either innitial 'Rubber'.
Hence it was through those incremental changes, both randomly chosen and randomly selevted for and against that, again over millions of years, lead to the myriad of new and different species.
You should watch Aron Ra's Youtube videos on the "Systematic Classification of Life." Very good, clear and concise.
Not at work.
"The Cambrian explosion poofed myriad lifeforms into existence instantaneously" they claim, ignoring that it wasn't instantaneous.
All this illustrates is that they are unable to distinguish the literal from the allegorical from the analogous from the metaphorical. One must therefore question how valid their biblical interpretations are given this obvious lack of discernment.
If, as CDF seems to do, one accepts the BB and the Cambrian explosion and the biblical accounts of the fall and Noah and so forth, one can only arrive at the conclusion that gunderscored actually actively hates all of the life he supposedly created. After all 99.9% of all species that ever existed have supposedly been wiped out by gunderscored over and over. What kind of all powerful deity just can't seem to get it right, ever?
