book of biblical scripture says Joshua fought the battle of Jericho and the walls came tumbling down; book of nature says he did not.
book of biblical scripture says the Israelites migrated out of Egypt; book of nature says they did not.
book of biblical scripture says a global flood occurred; book of nature says it did not.
book of biblical scripture says that sin is transmitted by the flesh; book of nature shows no biological mechanism for the transmission of sin.
book of biblical scripture says we have an immaterial soul; book of nature says we have no such thing animating us, only biological brains.
that's why both books are needed. but even having the one book, God is clearly revealed. there are non-scientific reasons why people don't acknowledge that.
no naturalistic model exist that demonstrates a origin-of-life scenario that involves assembly of dna, rna, proteins, and membrane structures (which has the capacity to control fluids that enter and exit) in such a way to yield a viable cell. in fact, it not even being pursued any longer because the complexity is too overwhelming.
