Scientist creates life in the lab.

Seems your imaginary friend isn't needed.

Also, if your special friend can create an entire universe from nothing, why did it need humans to populate the Earth through incest TWICE?*


*At least according to your little book of myths.

Interesting! I actually toured Craig Venter's lab back when they were sequencing the human genome. It was pretty cool.

Creating new/different life from preexiting life (cells that already exist) is a far cry from taking chemical compounds and/or atoms and creating life from it, unless, of course, you are taking the position that cells have always existed in such a form that separately formed DNA could be inserted therein and that is how life came to be on earth. Is that your argument? If not, please elaborate on your position.

Regarding: "Also, if your special friend can create an entire universe from nothing, why did it need humans to populate the Earth through incest TWICE?"

First, who said God "needed" to do that? Putting words in my mouth again!

Second, it seems that the way you put the question that you are trying to use the word "incest" and its current societal taboos to it to discredit the Bible. It seems you create some problems for yourself also. What is your position on how humans came to be? Did humans evolve in one line or several? If one, don't you have the same incest issue? If many, maybe not.

Third, if you are implying incest is wrong or bad in all circumstances, what leads you to that conclusion? Is there some objective criteria that makes it wrong in all circumstances? If so, who or what provides the standard? If not, what is your basis for the implication?
