I do not believe #1. My question is rhetorical. Im preparing a Devil's Advocate teaching tool for Christians. I've done 8 years of Academic, scholarly studies with scholars and scientists. Therefore, I do not agree with YEC or OEC. I disagree with Ken Ham from Answers in Genesis and all creationist organizations. My views are more aligned with BioLogos (e.g. Francis Collins, John H. Walton, and my Prof. Michael S. Heiser).
You should explain what BioLogos is. Or provide a link.
It gives us something to orient our questions toward. YEC and ID dominate the Christian world, so phrasing the OP the way you have will cause the average atheist to gear questions toward YEC/ID which (I assume) is not what you are interested in.
(Welcome to the forum.)
Well, it looks like there was no need to provide a link, right? You found it yourself, and I know it's fairly easy to just google BioLogos and find the link, so I did not bother. There is only 1 BioLogos on the net that discusses this topic.
My question aims at getting a few atheists to question believers as to why they find the existence of God unpersuasive from a scientific perspective, and why they find the Bible is not scientific ( which I agree-- the Bible is NOT scientific ). But I want to get atheists to respond, not myself. Im already satisfied with my own thinking and research for the past decade.
