There's no evidence in there.
I am aware of your position on the matter, EvF, but the Bible is a remarkable testimony. A reliable witness. I think of it as more similar to a court of law than science.
And once again I remind you that science is subject to interpretation, speculation, faulty logic etc. Oh, I know all about peer review and Scientific method being observe what happens; based on those observations, form a theory as to what may be true; test the theory by further observations and by experiments; and watch to see if the predictions based on the theory are fulfilled, but at the end of the day if that all don't add up the way you want it to you just have to wing it.
The whole process is not all that impressive to me in the sense that it is to you. To me its just the way one looks at things, to you its a quasi religious golden rule you overestimate the potential of.
