Anyway, regarding: "It was understandable back then when humans didn't know any better, but we know better now."
As it relates to evidence, I think the more we understand, the more problems it raises for a naturalistic explanations. Think about it. When cellular live was seen as just a black box unknown, it is easy to imagine things just spontaneously happening. Think: Spontaneous Generation. But the more we learn about the complexity of the cell and all that is needed for replication, it seems harder and harder for a naturalistic explanation to make any sense whatsoever. So to me, a naturalistic viewpoint was more understandable back then when humans didn't know any better, but we know better now.
Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery, good for you for admitting you are dense.
You said in a prior post and I agree, "The bible is not a science textbook".
So I fail to see what arguing all this science now is supposed to do.
You really must think I am stupid, and that is your mistake.
I have seen this bullshit trick before countless times over 16 years from countless apologists.
Apologists, "I am not arguing for my God" in a science thread.
Only to later argue for that same pet deity using science.
You are trying to have it both ways and stupidly think you are fooling me.
You have nothing. You are not fooling anyone.
Not trying to fool anyone. I am a pretty transparent person.
You have a pretty hard time understand the written word, however. I never admitted to being dense....and I don't think you are stupid. I do not understand, however, your reluctance for having a discussion on the issues without being so emotional about it and making assumptions on another's intentions. Are you concerned that I might change your mind? If not, and I am assuming not is the case, then you should be able to have an adult discussion that talks about points without calling names and making inappropriate assumptions.
