One of these statements is a lie. Which one is it, Rev?
Regardless, that ERVs can be made consistent with the God hypothesis by invoking magic doesn't make them any less strong as evidence for evolution, as they are consistent with that hypothesis as well. They are a startling confirmation of common descent even IF you could achieve the same result with 'magic'. Do you have any actual evidence that God rather than evolution did it, or are you gonna settle for invoking magic as an answer?
I don't God's divine power magic.
How does it differ?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
