Evolution/creation 2

[Drich]

He made that clear in the post, it's otherwise irreconcilable. The lord of the cosmos is in need of Drich's assistance in this regard. Apparently (and I would have never guessed this) he's an incompetent storyteller.

So much for 'stay silent where the bible is silent,' eh? Anyone else ever notice that Drich tends to put forth ideas that may complement what he is arguing at the time but completely refute one of his previous arguments?

Please by all means give me an example where i have stated the bible says________ or does not say________...

I take it you don't understand what a theory is in the scientific sense. Come back to me when you've come up with a compelling explanation for why germ theory, the theory of gravity, and the heliocentric theory are all "just theories," too.

Here Drich, let me help.

Scientific (and reasonable definition of theory from Wiki): "a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment."[

Christian definition of theory: persistent dingleberry. Same source, highly irritating, and requires more than a simple wipe to eradicate.

I am so glad one of you was brave enough to commit to following up on this line of thought.

Maybe you should write the folks and Merrium-webster and tell them their definations are off and that they need to change their definations to match the 'defination' you found on wikipedia.

As i said i am in good company.

kinda like the Whole THEORY of Evolution or creation to begin with eh? I looks to me that I'm in good company. As we all expend a measure of faith to believe what it is we want to believe about our orgins.

Oh for Thor's sake! It's time that you learn the difference between notion, idea, hypothesis and theory.
